[knocks on the door, like a good, pleasant boy]

[maege]

[by night time she's on her way to the dorms to go the fucking sleep because she likes sleep, and it has been a long day, and she is still not entirely over the Everything of today so quietly whispering damn to herself as she goes is appropriate tbh

buuut she grins when she sees Kaiba]

Heeeyy, sneaky! I was wonderin' where you ended up, geez.

[theyregooddogs]

[cool . . . cool, cool, cool, cool. but there's no answer?]

[afailedmurder]

[knocks in rhythm with the squeak toy like an obnoxious piece of shit]

[theyregooddogs]

[a tired shout from inside]

Akechi, not now.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[a two-count, then he brushes past, opening the door and disappearing into his room

...he doesn't tell will not to follow? though to be accurate, he doesn't say anything at all]

[theyregooddogs]

[well, whether the door is still open or not, talking loud enough to be heard]

I didn't realize you had killed someone.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[still another silence. then, too quiet to sound like any one emotion:]

There's a lot you don't know.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[He gives a tiny smirk back, though it's awfully soft for a smirk. It's not often that someone seems legit happy to see him (understandably)]

Didn't realize you'd be so lonely. I figured we could all use some time to ourselves, after all that.

[maege]

You ever hear about how misery loves company? Sooomething like that, but I just get bored easy, too—What're you up to?

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[shifts a bit]

I wanted to...ah, just, check in. That was some performance, earlier.

[maege]

Performance? ...You mean all the yelling?

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

Yeah. The jig was up, you didn't have to say anything, unless you just wanted to yell. Which, fair enough.

[maege]

Of course I wanted to yell, it's the one problem solving skill I've got that isn't zappin' fools. There was a problem that needed solving and I can't use my magic, and so!

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

I hope not to end up on the wrong side of that skill next time.

[maege]

Haha! You just keep up the good work and you've got nothin' to worry about.

[she's real casual about the whole thing, even as she jocularly punches his arm]

Hey, glad you made it outta there.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[why punching. but also, casual is good]

...Yeah, me too. Pretty big surprise for everyone.

[maege]

[it's a friendship punch okay, that's how friendship works]

Aw, c'mon, you were busting your butt way too hard to go down that easy, don't be so startled.

[theyregooddogs]

Generally is. But you avoided execution, that's good.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

The tender mercies of others generally aren't so merciful in my experience, so, yeah, I'm a little startled.

[maege]

We all gotta win one sometimes.

[she's trying to find a way to lean against the wall now without looking like a smug douchebag while also achieving maximum comfort]

C'moooon, lighten up a little! Things that happen around here usually aren't wins but I'd call this pretty great for us.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[as if seto kaiba can judge anyone for being a smug douchebag]

I'll save the champagne until I'm safely outside this place. but yeah, our threats should be erased. And there's fewer than ten of us left. This whole thing should be over.

[in theory. but his expression doesn't look as heavy as it did the previous few days.]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

...What are you doing?

[still blank enough to barely sound like questions, but not completely]

[theyregooddogs]

Checking on you.

[maege]

[listen, no, she is NOT about to risk anyone assuming the smug douchebag-ness has rubbed off on her?? no]

All things which would sound like cause for celebration to anyone who wasn't so focused on acting so surly.
