"Probably?" You sound like you don't have much faith in me.

[light and playful, though!!]

[messianic]

[ solemnly and seriously: ]

Akira, I've never had more faith in anyone than I do in you.

[survivaltricks]

Shot through the heart, and you're too blame. . .

[he mutters, a bit breathless and overwhelmed as he does so]

[messianic]

[ omg.

amusedly: ]

Do I give love a bad name?

[survivaltricks]

[EVENLY]

Only in the best way.

Hurt so good. Come on baby, make it hurt so good.

[messianic]

[ considers..... ]

... I don't want to make it hurt at all--

[survivaltricks]

[GOD]

You're so sincere and earnest. . .

[messianic]

Ah... well.

I thought you might be joking but I wanted to clarify just in case--

[survivaltricks]

Maybe I need to work on my sense of humor?

[that's also a joke]

[messianic]

That's not it either, I think your sense of humor is really great--

[ ... ]

Ah.

I'm doing it again.

[survivaltricks]

[SHAKES HIS HEAD. . . but he seems entertained]

You can't turn it off, can you?

[messianic]

[ CLOSES HIS EYES. ]

... I guess not. I've never tried to.

[survivaltricks]

Hn. . .

[reaches up to brush Minato's bangs from his eyes]

I don't think you have to.

[messianic]

[ his eyes flutter open at that, and he quirks an eyebrow at Akira with a tiny smile. ]

No? I'll keep missing your jokes sometimes. You don't mind?

[survivaltricks]

Why would I mind?

I'll just keep telling jokes until you get one.

[and that will be a MIRACULOUS day]

[messianic]

Ah.

[ thoughtfully and seriously: ]

... I'll have to brace myself, then. I think I need a training montage to get better at catching them.

[survivaltricks]

Pick a theme song. Eye of the Tiger is a no-go; it's been used to death.

[messianic]

That's fine. I like rap music more.

[survivaltricks]

[wags his brows]

I'm listening.

[GIVE HIM A SONG, MINATO]

[messianic]

[ ... shrugs a bit.

and.

Regretfully to me, Cal, he then proceeds to spit some absolutely fire rap stanzas. Probably Lotus Juice. ]

[survivaltricks]

[opens his mouth]

[closes his mouth]

[opens it more??]






Wow.

That's legitimately impressive.

[messianic]

[ AHEM.

He clears his throat, rubbing the back of his neck. ]

... Thanks.

[survivaltricks]

[. . . a thoughtful noise, and Akira's gaze flickers from Minato's expression to the MP3 player hanging around his neck. he reaches out to toy with the device between his fingers, expression curious]

Do you have that song loaded on here?

[messianic]

[ Minato smiles a little at that, dipping his head. And he reaches for his headphones, offering them to Akira as he picks up the mp3 player to search for the song. ]

You can listen, if you want.

[survivaltricks]

[his mouth widens into a smile of its own as he takes the headphones and tucks them against his ears]

[his eyes flutter shut as he listens to the song, head bobbing slightly in time with the music. there's something. . . intimate about this that Akira can't put into words]

[but it makes him feel pretty warm inside]
