[ There's an attached picture of Toudou laying on his bed. The shot is from the front, showing his eyes, mouth hidden against the sheets. ]

I hope you're cooking actual meals for yourself.

[nemurerumori]

I'm not going to bed yet, but I wanted to send your nightly text anyway

[irridescentspider]

You haven't texted me in weeks.

[nemurerumori]

I've been so busy I forgot

but no you have me back in full force!

I know I know. you missed this. It's okay. It's back all for you.

[irridescentspider]

[ It takes him awhile to respond, however when he does...]

I don't want it.

[nemurerumori]

You should say how you feel!

"I missed his texts and attention."

[irridescentspider]

Don't put words in my mouth.

What were you doing? You're never "too busy".

[nemurerumori]

[ Now to make up a believable, elaborate lie ]

I was talking to a lot of people. Hebi, Couch-san, Arakita. All of those problems along with my own things. I made a friend or two and was hanging out with them.

[ Not that any of these things use to stop him before. ]

You can text me when you're feeling lonely too. I know you don't like to, but I'm here for you.

[irridescentspider]

[ He knew who Hebi was and Arakita, but who the heck was couch-san? ]

Ah, that's good.

You know I'm no good at that.

[ He was horrible at small talk and he was pretty sure Toudou was mad or irritated at him for his decision anyway. ]

[nemurerumori]

Awkwardky trying is better than sitting there and being anxious and lonely, don't you think?

Do you want to do something together to make up for the lost time?

[irridescentspider]

...what would I even say?

I'd like that.

If we cook I promise to check the ingredients better this time.

[nemurerumori]

Anything! Anything that happened, anything that you're doing, anything you're thinking. It doesn't matter what.

We could do something else if you wanted. We could go out and do something fun.

[irridescentspider]

[ Makishima wants to say that'd be a bother but it's what Toudou does all the time anyway. ]

I'll try it.

What do you want to do? You know what most "fun" things are here.

[nemurerumori]

I spend a lot of time indoors.

I can look around and see where we can go.

I'll do that tomorrow.

[irridescentspider]

I'd like that.

A distraction would be nice.

[nemurerumori]

A distraction from what?

[irridescentspider]

ah...I mean it's been quiet. Kinjou hasn't really spoken to me since Tadokorocchi arrived.

[nemurerumori]

Oh the big guy came? That's good for you.

I spoke to him not too long ago. He said he was going to shape up, but I guess he hasn't yet.

[irridescentspider]

What do you mean shape up???

[nemurerumori]

I had a talk with him by the sakura trees.

Don't worry, I didn't hold back on him.

[irridescentspider]

And what's that supposed to mean?

[Was that a spark of jealous in Makishima's heart? Why yes it was though he knew he shouldn't have felt it, but he'd been under those sakura trees with Kinjou and he'd felt their effects. He'd shared in those effects with Kinjou and Mukuro so he knew just what being under them could do to a person. He wanted to believe Toudou wouldn't have sex with Kinjou, not knowing what he did about Makishima's feelings, but that spark of jealousy wasn't exactly rational. Kinjou wasn't even his to be jealous over. ]

[nemurerumori]

What else would I mean? I told him off for being a coward and a quitter. I don't think he wanted to have the conversation, but I didn't care, hahahaha.

I also told him I don't approve of him, but also that he shouldn't be fighting for my approval in the first place.

[irridescentspider]

It doesn't matter.

[ He was foolish to think Toudou would have had sex with Kinjou. He didn't really hold Kinjou in high regard and Maki should have trusted Toudou more. ]

You really didn't have to do all that.

[nemurerumori]

You were thinking I meant something else, didn't you?

"Did Toudou have sex with the guy he knows I like?"

Was that it?

[irridescentspider]

Don't put words in my mouth.

[ Yes. ]
