[ He needs a doctor on his side in case he ever gets fatally injured. This is pure survival instinct. ]

Yeah! Though I'm wondering how you're indulging... I know there are other ways aside from the—[ handwave gestures ]—but I'm curious what you do.

[nodo]

[ proud of gojou for getting his priorities in line. honestly. ]

I'm focusing on the ones that matter to me in particular. [ pride, as seen by law lifting up his hand for gojou to see. ] I gave out lessons earlier in the week, then I had some a few arrangements with some people to act out certain things—tasteful things.

[ they still maybe aren't things you can bring up in polite company but it's nothing scandalous. ]

And you? How are you managing you indulgences?

[mukagen]

[ He just keeps smiling as Law says "tasteful" things like they're all fucking sinners. Well, they are. Not gonna say anything when his expression says everything. ]

Good to hear it hasn't been too tough on you.

[ hahaha. ]

It was fun at first since all I really needed to do was laze around, but... Doing nothing or the bare minimum has been very hard for me.

[nodo]

[ his expression sure does say everything and look, not everyone here is a godless degenerate. ...just that the ones that are do so by huge margins. ]

Are you looking to be more proactive with your indulgences, then?

[ is this where we're going down.... ]

Or are you looking into doing ones that don't quite line up with what you're aligned with?

[mukagen]

I'll take anything, really. There's no point in being picky.

[ So he offers Law a hand, palm up. Give him the hand. ]

We can help each other—not in that way, but something smaller.

[nodo]

[ he...can have law's hand. they can hold hands wholesomely. ]

Sounds like a plan. What kind of ways were you thinking?

Pride's pretty particular.

[mukagen]

[ Nice. Keep his hand warm, then. Gojou isn't going to try anything too funny. ]

This is enough for me, actually. [ He does tilt his head. ] What would work for pride, though?

Do I need to... Praise you, or something?

[nodo]

[ are.

are they just going to hold hands??? WHY IS SLOTH SO EASY I HATE THIS. but don't worry, law will keep his hand very warm. ]

Something like that; I have to perceive myself as being better than you. Typically "dominance" seems to be the main way go about it.

Showing off what I'm good at or what's great about me would be another. I guess in that way of thinking, talking about myself would also count.

[mukagen]

[ ... yes. being kind of lazy and not doing much is part of it. Gojou is exerting the least amount of effort for some sloth points right now. he gets warmth! ]

All right. Time to hype yourself up, doctor.

[nodo]

[ TERRIBLE????

also double terrible is him needing to talk about himself because??? ??? ]

This one seems ridiculous to me, honestly. I don't feel like I need to talk myself up to anyone.

[mukagen]

It's not to anyone. Think of it as doing it for yourself.

[ Does... Does that help? ]

Pretend I'm not here.

[nodo]

[ no???? ]

Who talks to themselves like that alone?

[mukagen]

Actually, plenty of people.

[ He will be honest to you, Law... ]

[nodo]

I don't.

[ like. not verbally but he does get thinky thoughts. ]

[mukagen]

[ ... Well. Gojou will let Law figure that out. ]

[nodo]

[ they're just going to look at one another for a while, i guess then.

while holding hands?

wow. ]

[mukagen]

[ ........ yeah. it really be that way. ]

Have I mentioned that you look super cool?

[nodo]

[ i hate this.

hate it more because gojou is just going to start complimenting him sparing him from the alternative. ]

...no, but thanks. Got more of that up your sleeves?

[mukagen]

[ ... Fuck. Don't laugh, Gojou. Don't laugh. This man is depending on you!! ]

You're also so tall and handsome!

[nodo]

[ I COME BACK TO THIS DURING A BREAK AND IT STILL KILLS ME. ihae this

and law will just


put his hand over gojou's mouth. it's fine....... ]

[mukagen]

[ Oh, Law wants to silence him. He guesses that's enough?

He will stay quiet. ]

[nodo]

[ i.

this is definitely the worst one of them lot. ]

It sounds strange coming from you.

[mukagen]

How is it so strange coming from me?

[ As a tall... pretty man. ]

[nodo]

It's just is. [ hands off gojou, just to make things clear, as he crosses his arms. ] Especially if it's just for the indulgence.

[ being blindly complimented is apparently bad for him (or it's because he's a tsun). ]

[mukagen]

[ Hmm. Gojou thinks about it for a good moment. This is where you know he is considering his words here. ]

If you're feeling a bit embarrassed, you'll need to work on that.

[ yeahhhh. ]
