4 then for subaru wantin to die

[starrypoint]

[subaru pauses, freezes when he lifts his head to see where natsume's voice is coming from, heart picking up as he shuts the door behind him and he steps over quickly to climb the ladder--]

How'd you get up here?

[crystallomancy]

I'm going BLIND, not parapleGIC.

( please... natsume peers at him over the book, eyebrows raising. )

Though I would've thought Journey to the West was more your style than this ONE.

[starrypoint]

S'not for me.

[which true, it really isn't. he'll climb up and make himself comfy next to natsume, this is his bunk so his rules.]

Also, I wouldn't read that either. I wanna see it on stage.

[crystallomancy]

( ugh but fine, his bunk his rules. )

On STAGE... Well, I'd say "Maybe Dramatica will do IT," but neither of us would be able to see IT. What a SHAME. ( truly. ) Who is it for THEN?

[starrypoint]

[...]

My sweetheart. ♪

[crystallomancy]

( ew )

You don't have to try so hard to impress THEM. You could sneeze loud enough to scare off a bear and they'd think it's God's gift to this SCHOOL.

[starrypoint]

They wouldn't! C'mon, they're not that starstruck by me, I haven't given 'em any reason to be~.

[he's just been himself, after all. subaru akehoshi, third year at yogen high. no fancy pedigree, no units, nothing.]

It's supposed to be a present, so you've gotta keep it under wraps too. Okay?

[crystallomancy]

( even without all of that, subaru is still... )

Asking for a favor without offering payMENT? You should know betTER.

[starrypoint]

[his bunk, his rules, natsume has to deal with subaru leaning against him obnoxiously]

What's the fee today, my dear old friend?

[crystallomancy]

( ugly. )

We're not "old FRIENDS". ( but a good fee... hmmm... ) Procure a heater of some SORT. It's going to get COLD, and I assume if we didn't have cool air during summer we won't have warm during winTER. You and I will both be FINE, but I'm worried about the little bat and Shiratori-kun.

[starrypoint]

Or we could all make a cuddle pile together in the middle of the floor?

[let him be the heater.]

[crystallomancy]

[starrypoint]

Great talk! Can't wait, we'll make a blanket fort and cuddle up! I wanna cuddle Aira, okay~?

[perfect size...mnt]

[crystallomancy]

And I'll be sure to let the little shopkeeper know all about your newfound reading haBITS.

[starrypoint]

[there's a beat as if he's remembering why that's an issue before he puffs his cheeks.]

Fine. I'll ask them if they'll get us a heater, but it won't be cheap.

[crystallomancy]

Not even for YOU?

( get a discount, bitch )

[starrypoint]

Maybe if I make out with them.

[sincere.]

[crystallomancy]

I don't want nor need the sordid details of your affair with THEM. Kindly refrain from offering them UP.

[starrypoint]

[heh.]

Speaking of them, though, did something happen between you and Boss?

[crystallomancy]

Aside from the talk we had while you were aWAY? Not really; why do you ASK?

[starrypoint]

They know what your angry face is like.

[so. he wants to know. he didn't ask before before, because he wanted just to have fun, but

while they're on the topic.]

[crystallomancy]

( hm. )

...I just asked them not to hurt YOU. That's ALL, Baru-kun.

( "asked." )

It'd be a pain to deal with your moPING.

[starrypoint]

[asked...

subaru gauges natsume a little, drawn back just a bit, before he slides his arms back around the other and rests his head against him.]

They won't. [they will.] Just like I won't hurt them.

[anymore than he does already, simply by existing.]

Thanks for worrying about me, Natsume.

[crystallomancy]

You're as huggy as eVER— ( and natsume is as resistant as ever, shutting the book to wiggle it between them, ugh. ) And I'm not worried about YOU.

( ... )

But it's stupid of you to say you won't hurt each oTHER. Even they acknowledged they couldn't promise IT.

[starrypoint]

[good he's taking that book and putting it under his pillow.]

Yeah, I know. It's sorta impossible to live without someone getting hurt, but... it's more like, we don't want to hurt each other, so we won't... intentionally...?

[...]

Yeah. We won't mean to hurt each other, even if it happens. Anything I say or do'll never be for that purpose, and they're the same. I think that's what it was more.

[unlike what subaru and natsume have going on sometimes. words that're meant to dig in, fingernails prying at skin.]
