⠀ ⠀ ⠀ staring at … ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ existence is a concept . i am an unwilling party . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ let’s sue , akashi — kun . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

cerritus.⠀ i am a relic of days past , a fleeting ghost in the turbulent seas of time , a weak construct of a human with the defences of a blade of grass against the plethora of illnesses that sweep my city . tldr ; i’m shit at activity but miss this place .

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( innocently blinking . ) you can pay . ( said graciously ——— like the saint he is . ) ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( he nods , very serious , face like stone . ) for the best really , akashi — kun , i think i may have come up a little short . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( finger ﹠̲ thumb almost connect … ) about four milkshakes worth . ( times by a million . ) ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( head tilting , considering . ) alas , i am otherwise engaged on friday , akashi — kun . ( a sorrowful shake of his head , ) how about a wednesday in june .ᐣ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( tongue pressing to the roof of his mouth in a click , click , click along with the shake of his head once more . ) would you believe , ( side stepping akashi to throw his phone across the room , returning to his place before him , ) that i don’t have one … ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( weighing his choices , icy blue skimming over akashi’s face . ) both , ( is his ultimate decision , his mother raised one heck of a gambler . ) ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( his head peeks past akashi’s shoulder to peer around the room , studiously avoiding the couch . pulling back , he blinks , a puppy — like tilt to his head . ) i think you have mice , akashi — kun . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( he follows , dragging his feet , staring at the phone like it has personally wronged him . ) ahh , ( a monotone scream , plucking the phone from him ﹠̲ throwing it once more , ) i’m so scared of mice . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ no , no , that’s a mouse . ( palms rest on akashi’s shoulders , shoving him down on to the couch ﹠̲ promptly clambering all over him , ) save me , ( as monotone before as a elbow ‘accidentally’ knocks the phone away . ) ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( he seeks harbour in his delusion , ﹠̲ he shifts to curl up at akashi’s side , chin resting against his arm as he watches him carefully . ) oh yes , ( he replies blandly , ) can’t you tell that i’m terrified . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ( he tips his head into the touch , eyelashes fluttering as he takes a calming breath that he doesn’t really need but is grateful for anyway . ) thank you . ( eyes still closed , he secures a grip on akashi’s own phone , ﹠̲ he places it on the coffee table . ) ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( he’ll be sure to look indignant later , but for now , ﹠̲ rarely , he’s unguarded ——— relaxed . frame twists , cheek aligning to the curve of his shoulder , rubbing skin against fabric . ) soft . ( akashi’s clothes are always soft , like his touch . ) ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( akashi has this grace to him , with a sharpness in his eyes , that is unmistakably feline . he , on the other hand , is embodying the moments of a cat leading to a nap . ) i’m going to steal some , ( it’s an unrepentant warning . ) ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ( he can practically sense akashi’s mirth , ﹠̲ he huffs out a complaint into the soft material , but his discontentment only last a moment before he’s loose — limbed . ) it’s more fun to watch you figure it out , akashi — kun . ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

cerritus.⠀ it’s the audacity of this app to steal my kagami away from me . i’m barely here , whAT DAMAGE CAN I POSSIBLY DO .
