[He hugs back, and clings onto him.

Gojou is right here and he's fine. It's nice to have the reassurance.]

I'm right here.

It's not really your fault.

What happened?

[mukagen]

... You know you should still be blaming me. I might have been out of my mind, but you should accept my apology!

[ He huffs before settling right next to Omi. ]

We were taken? Abducted? To this hotel or something. If I have to surmise, I believe we were forced to face our past. Which isn't too bad, I think. It was when... These figures showed up? They took the shape of people we knew and started attacking us! One of them looked like you.

Eventually, we got stuck in a room brawling things out. Like the whole door disappeared! Never existed! I left the items I picked up in the hallway because I didn't want these weird figures taking them and I was punished for it! But there was this voice that basically encouraged us to kill and everything, including each other? It escalated from there, but we didn't turn on each other, instead on the doppelgangers.

I chose to kill yours so that Douman didn't need to. Did I mention it strangled me? After trying to help me against one of their own? It was really weird?

[ Gojou, just going ahead to talk about it like it's A FUNNY AND WEIRD? STORY? ]

The big highlight was when Douman came into the room with fake you where I was helping Molly and Grace with the doppelgangers attacking them. He was wearing this hat backwards and he had a gun. At the time, he still had an eye.

[housewolf]

I'm accepting your apology.

[And then he's just closing his eyes really hard as he cuddles into Gojou's side and listens to the story. This is absolutely horrific, but Gojou's so calm about it, it helps Omi stay calm too.

At least they managed to work together?]

That's why you tried to strangle me? [He mumbles it out.]

Are you sure you're okay? This is a lot to deal with, Satoru.

[mukagen]

Yeah, I'm fine... And I think that's why. I might have thought we were still there for a second.

[ Though he doesn't say more because they did all go through their past... He went through so many emotions in like five minutes, then also the time before he arrived in the common room, so! Gojou pulls Omi close while he gets huffy about the details. ]

I would have been even better if I wasn't poisoned. Everyone was a wreck, but I thought I was doing all right until it finally kicked in.

[housewolf]

Makes sense.

[Douman was avoiding him when they came through. Hate it, though.

He strokes through Gojou's hair.]

Get bitten by something?

[mukagen]

[ Omi, just liking people who kill. ]

Rather than something, it was someone. Well, one of the doppelgangers. I don't know what was going on, but somehow they laced their teeth with poison, I guess! Should have asked them how they did that without dying.

[ Haha! Though he supposes he can't make sense with all of it. It's... Very Fantastical. They could have been illusions, too. ]

Shouldn't you be concerned that I was okay with killing something that looked like you?

[housewolf]

[Don't worry about it.

He makes a face. As if the doubles weren't enough? There were also poisoned teeth?]

If you ran into a version of me that was hell bent on killing you, you should kill it.

[mukagen]

[ Gojou cannot get over it... But he sure has seen some thing and felt he was powerless in a lot of it. However, they're safe now. For now. ]

... You should do the same if you ran into a version of me like that, too. Also, remember that it won't be as handsome as me.

[ Just saying. Speaking of Omi's doppelganger. ]

I might have said something to Douman in my craze in there that might have upset him.

[housewolf]

[It's only Thursday, after all.]

Of course it wouldn't. [This does sound like he's just humoring him, but oh well.]

...? What did you say?

[mukagen]

This sounds awful—we were... Figuring out who should be the one to kill your double.

[ It was weird. It was super weird? ]

Douman got super possessive suddenly and said something like "the right is mine, not yours." I think it's his sin indulgence, but then I had some superiority kick. I told him "he didn't choose you."

[ Gojou really likes Douman, despite their craziness, so he looks apologetic for once. ]

[housewolf]

[Uh... Yeah, this is super weird just to hear about. How much weirder was that conversation?

Maybe he should examine that later?]

... Uh...

[Wow he has no idea what to say to that.] I would prefer if nobody killed me...?

[mukagen]

[ GOJOU GOES QUIET CAUSE LMFAO THIS IS AWFULLLL. IT REALLY IS STUPID TO HEAR. ]

I think it's the... Uh... Underlying messages behind it all. Not just the killing.

[housewolf]

[This is really up there for weirder conversations he's had in this place!]

... That you're both a little weirdly possessive?

[mukagen]

I don't think I am. You're allowed to be with whoever you want, Omi.

[ Hmmm. ]

But I guess I thought I was entitled to that honor. Or that right. Maybe pride? Since you confessed to me and everything.

[housewolf]

I want to be with you. [That, he can say easily.]

We can just chalk it up to pride.

[mukagen]

[ He nuzzles Omi since he also wants to be with him, too. ]

This week is something.

[ ... ]

Be kind to gramps, all right?

[ To Douman. ]

[housewolf]

[A tired little sigh, but he kisses Gojou's cheek.]

It sure is.

[He'd really like it to be over.]

I will. Don't worry.

[mukagen]

[ Thank you. He huddles closer. ]

Wish me luck when I talk to him, too! I'm not good at maneuvering interpersonal stuff, so it's going to be a battle.

[ grumble grumble. ]

[housewolf]

Good luck. Sounds like you really need it.

[Interpersonal stuff is just hard.]

[mukagen]

[ And something hits him after that. ]

I didn't get to celebrate your not-birthday.

[ Oops. ]

[housewolf]

[ It takes a second for his brain to catch up to that. ]

There are more important things than that. Besides, we can reschedule.

[mukagen]

I don't want to keep holding it off, though... [ Humph. ] So we should just do it now. You're unbanned from the kitchen.

[ Come with him! Even if he's sluggish. ]

Also, do you have plans tonight? Have you decided where you're going for curfew? I thought we might as well tell each other after what Sasazuka said earlier this week.

[housewolf]

[ He's going to stay directly next to Gojou, just in case he needs somebody to lean on. ]

Probably the kitchen? It's not exactly comfortable. Stuff does just keep happening there. What about you?

[mukagen]

The dog park! I'd say you should come with me, but you can do whatever you want.

[ He does feel kind of slow, once in a while bobbing his head because body feels hot.

But he's okay, otherwise! ]

[housewolf]

Are you sure you're okay, Satoru?

[Don't think he missed that.]
