[ he nods. ]

Would you put mine?

[tearduct]

[His head snaps over at Ryo in surprise.]

...No.

[preordain]

[ he is unsure if he believes him or not. ]

What would you have done then?

[tearduct]

[Wow, believe him, what the heck.]

I... don't know. I'd... vote for whoever I thought did it, I guess. [...] Whoever the dress might have fit.

[preordain]

Was there anyone in particular you were leaning towards...?

[tearduct]

[He thinks about it for a few minutes.]

...the Judge of Fire.

[preordain]

Hm... that makes sense.

We really didn't know enough until the last minute.

[tearduct]

[Just small white dress vibes and nothing else he swears.]

Let's start drinking more, Ryo. To practice.

[preordain]

Kuranosuke would probably be a good drinking buddy. He never stops.

[ a pause. ]

Or are you not interested in him anymore?

[tearduct]

[He at least has the decency to get really dark in the face despite pretending to look befuddled.]

That isn't... why! [LET HIM LIVE.] I mean... It has to be you, not him.

[preordain]

[ it was so fucking funny.

but hm. he'll stop walking. ]

It'll have to be beer.

[tearduct]

[..................why did ryo have to bring that up

He stutters to a stop to look at Ryo.]

Okay...?

[HE ISN'T ACKNOWLEDGING THE OTHER DRINKS AND WHAT HAPPENED]

[preordain]

[ hmm.

he is mostly testing to see if akira will or not. when that's the only response, he'll just start walking again. ]

[tearduct]

[HATE THIS.

He really watches Ryo start walking again, knowing exactly what this was about, but still refusing to discuss it. He hurries after him.]

Is there something you like the taste of? Maybe I can ask one of the demons to show me how to make it.

[preordain]

[ it's fine he won't say anything if akira doesn't. ]

I don't really have a preference, but you should probably ask for the hard stuff if you want to make a difference.

[tearduct]

[He frowns at this lack of answer.]

I don't want to kill myself before I get there. But I know.

[preordain]

... see if you can get a strong whiskey or vodka.

[ they can go to the dorm or elsewhere, but he is heading for the dorms since that was their original destination. ]

[tearduct]

Okay.

[No, they are going to the dorms because he is trying to force stupid Ryo to get in his bed and rest.]

[preordain]

We can drink it without adding any mixers in.

[ don't be a pussy akira ]

[tearduct]

[STOP. GO TO THE FUCKING DORMS.]

We can start next week. If we want to beat Satan, we have to start practicing. You need to rest right now, though.

[preordain]

I'm fine, you know.

[ why would he lie about this. he is still heading to the dorms but why. ]

[tearduct]

I don't think so.

[He doesn't argue. He just

says that without any follow up.]

[preordain]

I am. You're--

[ trips over a rock he did not see in his blind spot ]

[tearduct]

[i can't stand you]

Ryo!

[He flings himself forward to grab Ryo even though he should let Ryo eat shit really. But now they are romantically dipped.] See what I'm talking about? [This doesn't mean anything.]

[preordain]

[ he really should just let ryo eat shit. he deserves it. ]

I meant to do that.

[ no he fucking didn't ]
