Akira.
Where are you?

[tearduct]

my room
did u see the post

[preordain]

Yes.
I'm coming over. Stay there. Five minutes.

[tearduct]

i'm not going anywhere

[In fact, he will already be standing outside the door, leaned against it.]

[preordain]

[ when he gets there he is immediately just going to

poke at his shoulders ]

[tearduct]

[WELL, as expected, he has two big ol fat streams of tears running down his face. He winces at the shoulder poke actually, reaching up to cover his right one.]

Hey. You okay?

[preordain]

[ of course he's crying. ryo sighs, before ushering for him to go inside the room. ]

I'm fine. I ran into your roommate, he told me you tried to break the door down.

[tearduct]

[Reluctantly, he turns and opens the door so the two of them can go in. Thankfully, it's been fixed from his terrible panicked, heroic behavior.]

Yeah. I tried to call you, but it wouldn't go through.

[preordain]

[ there is a stupid sense of relief that akira tried to call him ]

I couldn't reach out as well. I wonder if it was meant to stop us from communicating, or to stop Hunter from leaving a message?

[tearduct]

[God, he's so gay.

I have no idea what Scaramouche's side of the room looks like, but Akira's is normal. As stated, he has the bottom bunk because the covers are messy as hell. He wipes at his face with his arm.]

Both probably.

[preordain]

[ he nods ]

Did you receive anything? An item?

[tearduct]

[He points to one of those Comically Large middle school store Pencils on one of the desks. There is a note attached.]

[preordain]

I got the same thing. I know others got something as well...

[tearduct]

Really...? Do you know what it's for...? Mine just said, "good job raising your tolerance." Like... the party?

[preordain]

No idea. It's not like we can ask the demons.

[ fucking useless ass demons. anyway. ]

But the party seems likely.

[tearduct]

I know.

[(akira voice) maybe they're busy]

Do you think demons killed Hunter...? I was waiting for them to bust into the room last night, but nothing happened until we passed out.

[preordain]

I'm not sure. They act differently from most demons we know, but it might be easier to tell if we could see the body.

[tearduct]

Yeah, they do.

[Have demons evolved again......]

We could look for him...?

[preordain]

[ ryo does not care nearly enough to actually look for him

but perhaps he can con akira into not dumping him if he does. ]

It might be difficult.

[tearduct]

[Ryo......... my god. IT IS A BIT BIZARRE TO HAVE RYO AGREE ACTUALLY. He really chalks it up as Ryo wanting to research things.]

We could just... walk around a little. See if we run into anything.

[preordain]

Alright, let's go.

[ he pauses, looking at akira's right shoulder. ]

And stop being reckless.

[tearduct]

[He leans to begin following Ryo, then falters at the pause.

His hand covers the shoulder again when he’s scolded.]

I was just trying to get us out.

[preordain]

Just remember that you're not as durable anymore as when you're Devilman. If there is someone out there attacking others, don't make yourself easier to take out.

[ and with that he will walk outside of the room. ]

[tearduct]

[His jaw tightens, though not because of the warning. It’s so FRUSTRATING not to be DEVILMAN!!!

Then when he gets frustrated, he can feel it in him clawing to get out, but it won’t come! He has Devilman blueballs!!!]

Wait—

[DON’T LEAVE HIM. He hurries after Ryo.]

[preordain]

[ BLUEBALLS hate that

but they can go to the stairs, although ryo will stop briefly when they pass by hunter's room. hmmmm. ]

He was at the bar, apparently.
