Trying to use my own words against me? How very you.

[...]

Don't you think I'm aware of this as well? If I was the newcomer, you'd spring to my 'rescue'. It does, however, change things.

Putting it in your vocabulary doesn't invalidate the point.

[ Ren's lips press together, thumbs poised over the phone's keyboard for a longer time than usual. ]

It doesn't have to change everything.

[He takes longer than usual. Has he struck him so that he'll leave him alone? Because that's clearly what Akechi wants, right now.]

Maybe not for you. But it does for me.

[ It takes a lot more to scare him off than that, remember? Akechi would have been lucky if that was all it took. ]

Just like that, then? Nope, going to have to be more convincing.

I'm not abandoning you either.

[Maybe he'll just have to make it worse for him. So Ren can finally understand it's not worth the effort.]

Ahh yes. Your messiah complex. Besides we barely have any room just the both of us. It would be easier if you're just with him.

[ Oh fuck off. ]

Caring for friends isn't having a messiah complex. It's okay, I know you're new at this.

[ Squeezing his eyes shut, Ren takes a few moments to poke a tendril of irritation back into the snarling pit it came from. Coincidentally the pit is named "Akechi feelings" and in keeping with the boy himself, it takes up far too much of Ren's mental energy and doesn't give him much satisfaction. ]

Since when do you make life easy on me? Seriously, this fatalism is something you apparently only apply to yourself and I don't understand it.

You could have fooled me.

[Akechi is not making this easy and he knows it. Part of him is just possibly testing Ren to see if he's actually serious or if this is one of his other string of betrayals.]

I never said I made it easy on you. In fact I'd be insulted if you implied anything of the sort. I simply meant that your life with Yusuke would be far easier.

[Is he ignoring the rest? Yes.]
intrusivethot: ((official) hmm)

[personal profile] intrusivethot 2020-08-25 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ Life with Yu- they've barely even spoken since he got here, why would Ren know that's even what Yusuke would want? That that's was he would want?

This isn't a conversation that should happen over text and Ren is quickly losing control over the velocity.
]

That's not what I meant. What I'm trying to figure out is if that's how you feel then why you won't fight for yourself.

[ How does he feel about - ?

Stop.
]

We're getting ahead of ourselves. I'm going to meet up with Yusuke at Leblanc and start getting him filled in. Knowing him I'll need to get him something to tide him over til dinner.

I'll be home soon.

[Because you're dealing with an insecure baby, Ren.]

Fight for myself? Isn't what what I've been doing?

[Why hasn't he just ignored him yet.]

Do as you wish.

[He might not be there because pouting.]
