[Mahito's not allowed to bang on Endorsi's bed and he's sure as shit not going back to the room he now shares with Only Gojou who is constantly like one step away from ending his flea life, SO!! They're just gonna fucking bang in the opium den, apparently, since that's a place with soft cushions and spots to lie down, unless Envy has objections.
IF THERE ARE NO OBJECTIONS THOUGH, he'll just be grabbing Envy's h...hand... right hand... so he doesn't accidentally squish his new handeye... and leading him over toward one of the seats.]
[of course this is gonna happen in semi-public i'm laughing
envy seems okay with this? he lets himself be led to one of the couches, then kind of nudges mahito to sit down first, before he just. sinks to his knees on the floor, settling between his legs, head resting on one of mahito's thighs. he reaches up with one hand, fingertips hooked lightly into the waistband of whatever pants mahito's wearing (assuming he has pants which he had better have.)]
[SOMETIMES YOU JUST ARE OUT HERE!! i also like the continued and very valid concern that at any given moment, mahito isn't wearing shoes or pants.
Fortunately he has both on this time, and though he's led to taking a seat with grace, he's a bit visibly surprised at what follows. SOMEHOW THIS ISN'T WHAT HE EXPECTED... But! He just smiles, reaching out to gently run his fingers across Envy's cheek, mindful of any extra eye there. God. With an easy and simple sort of agreement:]
Sure, if that's what you want. You can do what you'd like tonight.
[Apparently he's feeling like being particularly indulgent in this moment. Maybe because he found those Gojou roasts so hilarious.]
[oh, the touch is nice-- envy leans into it with a soft hum, eyes closing for a moment.]
It's what I want, yeah. [and after a moment of hesitation, he adds:] ...more of that, also?
[sometimes you have had a rough week and you just want affection, even from a flea. anyway we can skip over this part, honestly, just know that is literally all he wants is to do this while maybe asking for mahito to pet his hair and be nice to him a little bit. closes my eyes.]
[ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE but not as terrible as the fact that Mahito will absolutely oblige! That's the worst part about a flea!! He can be crushingly gentle and sweet when he wants to be, and as the weeks go on and he has more time to observe and mimic, he's getting better and better at putting forth a human face that's pretty close to the real deal.
In other words yeah this poor lad can have his gentle pets and soft, nice, encouraging words. Terrible. Mahito will be delicate and tender the whole way through, and once they're done desecrating the opium den, he'll tug his hands until they're sitting level together instead, inviting Envy to enjoy his chest pillows. god i hate it here
After a few beats and a careful kiss against his temple:]
We don't have to talk about upsetting stuff if you don't want to.
[Since Envy asked for this before they discussed anything at all. He's not really good at consoling, anyway.]
[THIS REALLY IS THE WORST PART ABOUT A FLEA, god, i hate that envy likes this fucking terrible man. he doesn't hesitate to curl close, either, resting his head on mahito's chest (now that i know he's apparently fucking ripped who ALLOWED that) and wrapping an arm around him. time to get comfy. awful.]
It's fine, I just-- it's kind of calming to do? So. Less that I need to avoid anything, more that I just needed to chill out a little.
He is perfectly comfortable just hanging like this, though. Why are good men dead and Mahito just gets to vibe here having a great cozy time, hateful.]
Ah, really? It is? I'll have to try it sometime. [Imagine being the kind of creature that does a shibari bang before giving their first bj. Incredible.] Do you feel better, then? It helped? You seemed pretty, uh. Stressed during trial.
He will just pet Envy's head, though, and readjust how he's sitting to comfortably accommodate him. Terrible.]
Oh... You get lonely easily. [Less of an "aha!" sort of moment and more just Mahito going "oh yeah that's a thing I've noticed".] Other people still come and talk to you though, right?
[IT REALLY IS HORRIBLE. PLEASE GET RYAN A BETTER MAN.]
Yeah, I know. [He's just giving this poor lad a hard time because ??? APPARENTLY HIS WEEK ISN'T TIRING ENOUGH YET. He will fondly ruffle his hair, though.]
Yep! [Said on a little breath of a laugh, before he tucks some hair behind Envy's ear.] But things that work out in my favor don't usually work out in anyone else's.
Mmmmm... Prooobably not...? That depends, I guess. The list we're working with is kinda tiny until we kill Endorsi.
[TERRIBLE. Also terrible: he likes Envy enough that he would love to see Envy suffer, unfortunately, but these casual reactions are just not enough to stoke his interest in Murdering Envy's Favorite People For Funsies.]
She's too soft! There's only like, five people she doesn't mind seeing dead!
[THE UTMOST PETULANCE... The way he says this, you'd think he's talking about someone not sorting their recyclables properly and not a person's very valid reluctance to stab.]
I wanted to take Lenore off, so it's really only Aoi, Eleanor, Misa and Primrose right now... She said we can revisit the ones who aren't in her top no-kill after those guys are gone, as if it'll be easier for her to off anyone else later if she's already kicking up a fuss about 'em now.
[CURSED!! And yet, he seems perfectly content. Awful when you're a social, tactile creature while simultaneously being a curse.]
Yup! I don't get it, but that's the way things almost always are. Anyone who thinks otherwise is probably just kidding themselves. At this rate, she's definitely gonna end up dying for someone else's wish, whether it's ours or a different person's.

But, um. It helped, yeah. It's just been-- it's been a week.
no subject
Hah - maybe we can go again in a bit, then. [Because unfortunately Mahito would absolutely get a little bored with it. Stupid, stupid curse man.]
Hey, what does happen now that no one's assigned to you? Does that mean you won't be able to leave or something?

You're maybe a little too tolerant.

Except for you murdering Luca, but-- aside from that.
