eiden goes down quickly, his heart hammering. this was not where he saw this going, and he just looks up at rang in quiet confusion (it's very easy in this state, even with rang straddling him, to not be horny). anxiety swarms a little in the back of his skull like the thrumming of bees. ]
[the shadow waiters like 'we don't get paid enough for this` as rang is like finally some good fcking food re: eiden's emotions,]
Let's say that I killed you.
[his own emotions ring with amusement, even as he keeps his hand on eiden's chest,]
And that somehow, your clan members found out.
[yakumo is here, does rang know that yakumo and eiden are clan members..... maybe he's gotten the hint that they know each other, and has put two to two together considering yakumo is not human. anyway, this is a question for all of eiden's clan, not just yakumo -- this theoretical scenario that's apparently exciting to think about for rang,]
Would they mourn your death? Try to kill me in revenge? Or both?
[ there's a quiet swelling of something in his chest, and as he lays there, somewhat stunned, there's a part of him that shakes. is it fear or rage or sadness? he doesn't know. all he knows is he can wrap his hand around rang's wrist belonging to the hand on his chest and look at him with a faint smile. ]
I think both, some faster on the latter half than the others. But I don't think they'd like having to do it for a substitute [ his breathing trembles ] instead of the real Grand Sorcerer.
[ eiden closes his eyes. ]
I have a duty... of course I'll go back to them. But I can think about the only home I've ever known too... even if it wasn't always kind...
[ there's a silent pull of thanks from him. like maybe thinking about this has... freed him in some way. there's a lighter aspect to his emotions, even if they're still somewhat unhappy. ]
[to rang, it seems like a very simple situation. why cling onto a home that wasn't kind? a world that didn't treat you right? just abandon those who've abandoned you, and you'll be fine.
instead of saying that, he just frowns at the gratitude he can feel from Eiden, then presses a hand on the edge of the table to lever himself up and off of the other man. since eiden's hand is on his wrist, then that means Rang pulls him up to sitting position again,]
I've never known anyone to kill for someone they didn't care about.
[dryly, but there's a sense here that he doesn't want to push on this subject any longer. he just starts eating eiden's food ig]
[ i hate you don't fucking eat his foot. smushes his face with his new shoe but like more like pushing like stooop don't???? chew that??? it's new??? yaywon im locking you into this bullshit. he smiles shakily like haha fuck that conversation i don't want to talk about how i think i am more of a means to an end! ]
