Hm...

[ He's not so sure about that. After all, if she had strangled him, especially in front of everyone, that would have been bad for her as well. ]

Fine. That'll be your duty. Congratulations, Momota-chan, you have a duty. You should be honored.

[truthliesinspace]

[this girl was about to kill everyone out of spite do u really think that would have stopped her]

Y'know, you could work on being a little less condescending. . .

[lieindespair]

I could, but then that wouldn't be my usual adorable self now, would it?

[ He gives him a big, bright smile. ]

I've always wanted a servant! Be a good host and get me a soda, won't you?

[truthliesinspace]

Now who's flatterin' themself. . .

[A TWITCH OF HIS EARS, highly considering tossing this little gremlin out the door...........]

Call me a servant again and I'll tie your tails in a knot.

[gonna get him a soda tho]

[lieindespair]

[ There's a joke in there somewhere but he keeps it to himself. ]

So what's the preferred nomenclature? Serf seems too insulting...

[truthliesinspace]

[tosses a cold soda a little too hard at him]

Didn't we have a conversation about bein' equals when you first got here?

[lieindespair]

Ah!

[ He barely manages to catch it before it hits him in the head. Still, he can't help but grin over at him. ]

Well, old habits die hard, I guess.

[truthliesinspace]

Now that's a lie. We both know you're an adaptable little twerp.

[lieindespair]

Oops! Saw right through me.

Maybe I just wanted to give you a hard time. You're so predictable, you know.

And hey, servant or peer or whatever... you managed to help me so... I guess that's worth something, isn't it?

[truthliesinspace]

[DID HE THOUGH....tilts his head with a light snort.]

It's worth about as much as you want it to be. I'll just tell you the same thing I told Shuichi--don't try to do everything on your own, alright?

[lieindespair]

[ Hearing Shuichi referred to in the past... does bring his expression down a bit. What would Shuichi do if he were here? ]

Mnh. And don't let yourself get coerced into something, either. You trust people too easily, you know. It's gonna get you hurt someday. Advice from me to you.

[truthliesinspace]

[A dry laugh at that. He trusts so many people, to the point that he trusts them to kill him. Truly, friendship.]

Heh, you worried about me now?

[lieindespair]

[ He feels some heat rise to his cheeks and he does his best to hide it by drinking his soda. ]

Why would I be worried about the guy who killed me? Seems pretty masochistic, and I'm definitely more on the S side.

[truthliesinspace]

You always say just a little too much and make shit real weird, y'know that?

[he leans over to tap him on the forehead]

It ain't nothing wrong with fussing over people. I worry about you, too. But now that you mention it. . .

Probably should apologize for it, even if it was your idea. So! Sorry, man.

[lieindespair]

....

[ That hadn't been something he was expecting. After all, Kaito was right: it was his idea.

After a moment, he just huffs. ]

If anyone should apologize it's your psycho girlfriend. She ruined everything I was setting up. But... at least it worked out.

[truthliesinspace]

Don't bring her into it. She got manipulated, too--and you did "kidnap" me. You could've just let me go and I probably would have been out for days with how hard that damn Exisal clocked me.

Plus, you're the one who decided to say you were the mastermind. If you felt that strongly about killing Tsumugi, why wouldn't Maki feel that way about you?

[lieindespair]

Mmh.

[ He had his reasons, but he can't say he blames Maki, especially when Kaito brings up his reaction to Tsumugi's revelation. He shifts, looking a little uncomfortable. ]

That was... a miscalculation. I didn't think she cared enough to go that far but.. I was apparently wrong.

[truthliesinspace]

Gotta stop underestimating folks, man. Or at least start getting to know 'em better. It'll help all your weird little schemes go more smoothly.

[lieindespair]

Yeah... I'm starting to see that...

And they're not weird. They're meticulously planned, I'll have you know. It's you guys who're weird.

[truthliesinspace]

The little bastard goin' around making impossibly creepy faces doesn't get to call me weird!

[lieindespair]

Huh? Who's being creepy? So much for Momota-chan's open mind, I guess.

[ He gives a dramatic sigh and blinks up at him. ]

You said you almost ate her. What was that like?

[truthliesinspace]

. . .?

Eh. I don't really remember? It's like, I got so angry I was starting to black out? And I could feel someone else moving my body. Could hear 'em taunting Tsumugi too, but between that and all the memories, it was hard to get a grip on what was happening.

I just knew I didn't. . .want to hurt her, so I tried to reign it back in. Calmed down after a while and came to. She said it didn't get it her, so, it was alright.

[lieindespair]

Are monster diseases communicable here, do you know? Like... if you were to have bitten her, would she become a werewolf too? And there's gotta be at least one vampire or zombie, right?

Or do those rules just not apply here?

[truthliesinspace]

What? No?

[................thinks]

I mean, I don't think so? I'm not actually a werewolf, after all, it wouldn't make sense!

[lieindespair]

[ He raises an eyebrow. ]

What wouldn't make sense? More importantly, what would with all the other crazy shit?
