There's no need to fear the past. The past is just a memory.

[silicone]

I don't like it, but I can't change your mind. You're so damn stubborn.

[ he just hugs a knee to his chest because this sucks he doesn't want to hear this even if he would rather hear it from him first than behold it. ]

I know you're doing it for Simon... to keep him safe... but don't be so eager to leave me behind, too.

[allmenare]

Eiden-

[Fukuzawa's words are abruptly cut off though, and he sits there blinking.

He looks at Eiden.

Then down at his own hands.

Then back at Eiden again, this time with furrowed brows.]

[silicone]

[ huh? he watches this and just: ] ... What's wrong?

[allmenare]

[He seems a little frustrated as he gestures between himself and Eiden, like he's displeased about something. But he's not using his words.]

[silicone]

This is a really crappy time for charades...

[ moving forward to touch his hands a little bit like hey easy... ]

Did someone curse you just now or something? They've got shitty timing.

[allmenare]

[He gives Eiden a weird look and shakes his head.]

[silicone]

[ he just. is confused.

and gestures between the both of them in some mild confusion. ]

Yukichi, what's going on...?

[allmenare]

[After a moment he pulls out his phone and texts Eiden:]

I broke my mime vow of silence talking to you.

[silicone]

[ frowning as he reads his phone and just. hello??? ]

Since... when did you take a vow of silence...?

[allmenare]

[A pause, and then:]

I don't know but it feels important and I have been breaking it.

[silicone]

Just... feels very sudden. You don't seem like the kind of guy who'd go around breaking something you think is important.

[ he just, looks kind of... mad. not at fukuzawa, but at the fact that people are out here slinging curses on each other left and right. he just pinches his brow and grumbles. ]

I'm gonna cold-clock whoever is doing this to you. First the fucking assassin confession, now this. I'm pretty damn sure it's a curse...

[ he lifts a hand to touch fukuzawa gently on the cheek and... stops. lowering it because right. he forgot. that's not really theirs anymore, is it? now that yakumo is gone. so he just. closes his eyes tiredly. ]

1/2

[allmenare]

[He was going to deny it again, but he sees Eiden's reaction there and it just makes his heart crumple. Eiden...

He wants to reassure Eiden so he'll cast the remove curse on himself, just to show he's not cursed.]

[allmenare]

[Except he was cursed, so as soon as he cures himself he looks mad. And just covers his face with a hand.]

God damnit.

[silicone]

[ he is just making this face like






so. u cursed? but also reaches to just squeeze his shoulder. ]

Someone really wanted you to shut your mouth that badly, huh.

[allmenare]

It seems as though I am the butt of everyone's jokes this week. And I really wanted to talk to you too.

[silicone]

People still probably have complicated feelings about last week.

[ sighs softly ]

Which... fair, but between you and me I'm... now pretty sure it wasn't him.

[allmenare]

[This grabs his attention rather sharply.]

Oh? What changed your mind?

[silicone]

I can't tell you. You have to just trust me.

[ anime voice: hi~mi~tsu~🎶 ]

I just believe that he didn't kill Lambda or Shenhe. 100 percent.

[allmenare]

[A huff of amusement.]

Those are the only two unsolved murders right now, you know.

But alright. I'll trust you.

[silicone]

I know.

[ he just sighs and flops right onto his shoulder. ]

Thank you for trusting me. [ he huffs ]

[allmenare]

I should be thanking you for going through whatever efforts you did. Simon needs people in his corner.

[Puts his arm around Eiden to hug him.]

Were you going to check the team rankings this week? I still can do my part if you want to go with that plan.

[silicone]

I've already done it, and [ hesitantly: ] I want you to keep the item.

[ he just quietly holds the end of the necklace in his palm. ]

Is that okay...?

[allmenare]

That's fine. But can you tell me what you found?

[silicone]

That... there's a very large possibility one team did both.

Please keep this between us.

[allmenare]

I will. But can you tell me which team it is?

[They framed one of his people. He has to know.]
