[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.]

[mukagen]

I'll be fine! I don't want to needle into any of your plans except for right now.

[ KITCHEN!!! ]

It's time to make your garlic fondue!

[housewolf]

If you faint I'm bringing you to your room.

[But it's fine, surely.]

[mukagen]

It's all out of my system, Omi-wan!

[ Watch him cook! Watch!! He has been practicing, actually, and desperately cooked when Omi wasn't around the kitchen. ]

... Though I guess you can help a bit since things are hot and I'm hot.

[housewolf]

Is it?

[He presses their foreheads together for a moment. Fever?]

What do you need me to do?

[mukagen]

[ Quite warm... ]

Handle the saucepan after I blend the ingredients.

[ He says that but he’s done blending. ]

Also, boil the vegetables when I finish cleaning them.

[ He starts cutting off stems, albeit a little slower than usual. Also peel. Basically, Omi gets to do all the hot parts. ]

[housewolf]

When you're done go get an icepack or something, okay?

[ He doesn't really mind doing the hot parts, but he will mind if Gojou overheats. ]
