[Look, he is the biggest dumb-dumb, for real. But... they are in hell, weird shit has been happening, and Ryo has hurt his trust a little before.
So he does not believe this exactly, even if he doesn't argue.
He guides Ryo right out to the ferry by the shoulders, then right onto the ferry by the shoulders too. Time to hit up the creepy, very icky clown carnival. He's still leading Ryo by the shoulders, but Ryo has time to... look, judge, and accept where he has been taken.]
[The carnival isn't so bad, ignoring all of the misery put into it by hell, but that isn't why he dragged Ryo out here.
He leads them over toward the rigged game stalls, then through them. The bar! He makes Ryo go down first, still in front of him, and when they get near the bottom of the stairs where strange orbs begin to rise up......
sometimes you are floating in a sea of balls and there's a boy on top of you. instead of getting flustered, ryo just ages ten years as he tries to not sink even more down. who knows how dirty the actual floor is and he does not want to find out. ]
Using the spread of balls, he tries to get himself up on his hands and knees... but that only makes all of the balls swarm down on top of Ryo. CONSUME. He... laughs? He actually laughs, but then very suddenly clears his throat to cover the humor. HE IS SUPPOSED TO BE MAD...
Carefully, he tries to uncover Ryo's face.]
If you ate more, you wouldn't sink to the bottom. Cool, huh? The whole bar is full of it.
[HE REALLY BROUGHT RYO ALL THIS WAY TO SEE THE BALL PIT......]
[He sits back on his heels as Ryo sits up. The balls really don't give Ryo any opportunity not to be covered. So he digs his feet down through the balls mostly to the floor, stands up,
then scoops his hands under Ryo's arms to heft Ryo up into a standing position.]
They have drinks besides beer, too. Do you want to try some?
He wades through the balls toward the bar; Ryo can follow if he wants. The ball pit gets deeper as they go unfortunately, all the way up to the waist.]
There are two, I think. Which one do you want? "Strange Medicine," or "Number Nine"?
[ actually, they both do, but honestly he's just commenting on the name. none of the alcohol from the previous week were weird so there's no real reason to suspect anything. ]
[Tch. Fucking spoiled. It's like he thinks he's an angel, or something.]
Let's share the Number Nine then.
[Since Ryo thought the other one sounded suspicious by name. He doesn't think about it being suspicious so much as he associates medicine with a bitter taste.
[Ryo doesn't answer his question in the way he meant, in the way he knows Ryo knows he meant. They're in hell. From his end, they've been through a lot, some of it things he didn't like.
So he thinks to press, but the drink interrupts him by coming out, and he doesn't get the chance.
He already suspects he will have to drink first, so he picks it up to smell it and then sip a chunk of it. His eyes widen.]

[ this is confirmation that ryo is indeed fucking with them on beek. ]
Maybe he wants a change of pace now.
no subject
Because of what happened the other day?
[Did... Chandra... have a change of heart? This is wild. Chandra beat his demon...]

[ there are so many lights, and this is obviously a carnival. everything about this is awful and he would prefer to be in his room. ]
Is this something you want to see?
[ for some freaky freaky reason ]

...he gently shoves Ryo out into them.
Hehe. Ball pit.]
no subject
[ oh.
his immediately reaction is to wildly try to grab onto akira to drag him down with him. bookends. ]
no subject
He looks stunned Ryo pulled him down into the pit, too, despite knowing good and damn well Ryo is not going down alone.
He lands on top of him, though. Crush the nerd.]

ryo's expression is one of someone who was not expecting to be in this situation and is now stuck in a ball pit. ]
I eat a normal amount.
[ not really.
but he will try to sit up properly, shooing some of the balls away from his space. they just come back though, because that's how ball pits work. ]
no subject

[ they knew the first weekend that drinking would be involved but wow. it is so involved. there are 50 bars here.
he dusts himself off. ]

Just pick for me, Akira.

Let's share the Number Nine then.
[Since Ryo thought the other one sounded suspicious by name. He doesn't think about it being suspicious so much as he associates medicine with a bitter taste.
So he orders them the Number Nine.]
no subject
guess they will wait for the drinks. the music is loud and he is not even blinking at it...... this is nothing compared to demon orgy...... ]
Satan might have a drinking problem.
no subject
That just means he'll be strong for the contest.
[Hearing "Satan might have a drinking problem" from Satan is sure something.]
...Are you going to play to go home, Ryo?
no subject
but hmm. ]
I'm not sure if Bucky had the right idea of how to approach this, but I am definitely going to participate in the contest.
[ he has no problems with murdering anyone here, but he is not sure if that is the smart thing to do right now. ]

...It's really good.
no subject
well, since akira isn't dead, ryo will also take a sip of it. not as much. ]
It's much better than the beer.
no subject
[The only decent stuff was at the party, and now it’s all gone.
Once Ryo is finished, he takes it back to have another sip. It’s so much better, god.
Speaking of GOD, he starts to slide the drink to Ryo again, but has to
double-take when he looks at Ryo.

no subject
looks at akira
?? ]
What.
no subject
It really dawned on him out of nowhere…
Slowly, he looks back at Ryo.]
You’re… just… the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
