[probe]

[he looks a little reluctant, but.]

... Fine. [he GUESSES you can touch him.]

[touchups]

Yay!

[JUST YAY... He will gladly scoot over, reaching up with his little demon hands to gently and carefully start loosening the ponytail.]

--Hey, why d'you guys wear the hoods and stuff, anyway?

[probe]

[they sit very, very still.]

I usually wear hoods. This was not a huge change in... fashion. For me.

[touchups]

[By their powers combined, maybe Mahito won't accidentally doink him on the crown.]

Oh... Huh. Was there any reason? Just something you liked to do?

[probe]

Easier to fade into a crowd, mostly.

[thanks for not doinking his crown :(]

[touchups]

[Sometimes, a curse can control their inherent impulse to do harm! Especially when not dealing with wholeass regular full humans. God bless.

Anyway, after that's all settled, he'll start working on a braid. He's styled Medb's hair several times for trial, so he is unfortunately very good at it for reasons that are even worse.]

Hm... I guess, yeah. Though I think in some places, wearing a hood would just draw more attention your way. Not like that for you, huh?

[probe]

Not where I come from, no. But not a lot of people pay attention to me in the first place.

[which suits him fine.]

[touchups]

Good for you, huh? Since you don't like dealing with people!

[He read the brackets with his third eye.]

Must be pretty overwhelming for you here, then. You guys always end up with everyone's eyes on you, huh?

[probe]

[aki out here using his insider knowledge]

The week that I had to be out on the floor will never happen again. [stares into the middle distance.]

[touchups]

[LOOK sometimes you remember the things a Pride said to you in your very first conversation. Also, he's a raccoon.]

That's good, at least! --Oh, hey, speaking of. I heard from some people that you do like the chapel and from some people that you don't. Which is it?

[probe]

[squint.]

I don't hate it. But I don't particularly like being there, either. Who said I like it.

[touchups]

[PRIDE your CHAPEL RUMORS.]

Uhhh... I think Gojou Satoru heard it from someone? Or something? Someone mentioned it in trial too, once... maybe. [Now he's squinting too and pausing in his braiding as he tries to remember. it is i aki who cannot remember but fortunately mahito is a fucking idiot too]

...Don't know! But I remember hearing it, 'cuz I tried to avoid that room when I tracked him down earlier.

[Gojou in the tearoom... Tracking him down for hell.]

[probe]

[this game of telephone...]

Not a fan of chapels in general. [he is very patiently letting mahito do this and it's awful.]

I don't care what you do there. Just don't touch the garden.

[touchups]

[Truly hilarious. He's heard at least two times that Pride likes the chapel and that it's important to him.]

Huh. Well, okay! I was always gonna avoid the garden anyway, you know I like it there.

[Resuming his braiding! He's getting closer to the thorns, but he does unfortunately have a lot of dexterity, so he's being very careful about it.]

[probe]

[these people out here making assumptions and not asking pride himself]

Mm. I appreciate that you do. [yay braids...]

[touchups]

[Sometimes you gotta just ask the raccoon yourself.]

Does anyone not? I'd be really surprised. I feel like enjoying nature is one thing most of us share.

[probe]

They don't enjoy it enough to not destroy it.

... The people here have been good about not tracking blood through the roses.

[touchups]

Hm... I can take a shovel to their kneecaps for ya, if you want!

[Mahito just casually like "you want me to murder the guys messing up your garden? I'll murder the guys messing up your garden."]

But that's good, at least! I'm glad they're playing nice.

[probe]

[he seems amused by that.] I wouldn't stop you.

[pride,]

[touchups]

What names are we looking at, then?

[HE SAYS CASUALLY, LIKE THERE ISN'T A GENUINE RISK HE WOULD GO AFTER THEM. Good thing he does get sniped, good lord. For now though, he's still carefully working his way around Pride's head, but seems to be making good progress. Is he weaving a crown braid on a guy that has a crown coming outta his wholeass skull? He might be.]

[probe]

[occasionally he twitches, like it hurts, but not often.]

Anybody that I might have had you go after is dead already.

[touchups]

[Poor Royce Royceson... Any time he twitches, Mahito pauses for a second, carefully readjusting wherever he'd been working. Can't believe the people he does not care about at all are just stomped under his little demon foot and yet he can be so thoughtful with the ones that leap past that line of notice.]

Oh, really? That's too bad. [IS IT.] We'll be pretty much done with Endorsi's safe list after this week... I was hoping to get a new, fun name! Endorsi'll probably pick someone stupid, so if they don't catch me, I'm just gonna work with Ming Yi next week without telling her.

[Mahito, a curse: well I'm bored now, time to wreak havoc. AND THEN HE DID, ALBEIT NOT IN THE WAY HE EXPECTED.]

[probe]

[unbelievable titanic chaos in his stupid flea ass]

Mm. [he's just... amused, by all of this? mahito is so much.] Ming Yi didn't get caught either, so I can only imagine the chaos.

[touchups]

[Watch him make himself a shirt that says this.

PRIDE IS ALSO SO MUCH THOUGH wow. God bless. This is why he likes him, which is truly unfortunate.]

Yeah, yeah! I figured we could do something really fun together! I told Gluttony I'd be more clean with my next kill, so this one's gonna be a little boring- [WHAT ABOUT BOOB] -but Ming Yi'll probably be okay with any idea I have.

[They are... two demons.]

[probe]

[you're legally required to link me the thread if he does

also YEAH HOW IS DESTROYING THE AIRPORT BORING, MY DUDE but whatever pride doesn't care.]

Try to avoid the remaining prides. I don't want people pestering me to "join my team." [:unamused:]
