[ he.

he isn't even sure if he should take that seriously but— ]

He's taken.

[survivaltricks]

So am I.

[HE WAS KIDDING GIYUU]

[baori]

[ oh.

also look, not everyone have things (mostly) figured out. some of us still haven't figured out that the square block won't go into the circular hole. ]

Are they here with you?

[survivaltricks]

No.

[a tiny little smile]

And that's for the best.

[baori]

[ giyuu makes a noncommittal noise. ]

Despite what they tell us, I would agree.

[survivaltricks]

. . . I hope it just means she made it home, even if it's without me.

[he'll have to work hard to return to her!!]

[baori]

If we are to believe what they're saying, then they should be.

[survivaltricks]

[reaches up to touch the birdcage necklace around his neck]

Mmm. I'll make it back to her.

We all will.

[baori]

[ giyuu watches akira reach for his necklace and only looks to his haori for a moment before looking back at akira with a slight nod. ]

I hope that you do.

[survivaltricks]

And I hope that you do, too.

[even though Giyuu never said he was taken]

[HE IS LOOKING AT HIS HAORI MEANINGFULLY IT COUNTS]

[baori]

[ giyuu is a free man who doesn't know what you do with hands

and the haori is a spoiler but he'll give akira modestly surprised expression. ]

Thank you.
