[ they're in separate rooms, in the same house, and yet— he ends up calling aki around 3:00 am. seriously, denji and his odd-hour calls. he shouldn't be allowed to have a cell phone; it's too much power.

once aki picks up, he's quick to interrupt- ]

I have a question, and I think you're kinda smart enough to answer it.

un hayakawa 1/2

[lifeprice]

[ He literally just fucking hangs up. ]

[lifeprice]

[ But then he feels bad, because it’s Denji and he - stupidly - cares a lot about him. So after about thirty seconds he sighs and calls Denji back.

He’s awake anyway, so he might as well. ]

What?

[nutkick]

[ wow.

he allows aki to be a drama queen and have a moment to play out his discontent, and once he gets a call back— they're back on track like nothing has ever happened. ]

What does it mean when you kiss someone, but it doesn't feel naughty?

[lifeprice]

[ ... What the -

Right. Aki takes a deep breath, lets it slowly draw out and then desperately wishes he had a cigarette. ]

It probably means you're not interested in them romantically, or sexually.

[nutkick]

But, why do I still want to kiss them?

[ well, he did offer you the local smoking pipe, but you rejected it. so, suffer. ]

action - after the future devil network post

[nutkick]

[ it's been a few hours since that information slithered inside his brain, but it certainly took its sweet time before it presented itself; rattling denji in ways he never thought possible. which is why he felt obligated to walk towards the bathroom door, where aki was enjoying a warm bath, and started knocking hard.

that's all the warning he will get before denji turned the handle and invited himself in. i mean— the nsfw parts are hidden under the foamy water since aki demands to bathe like a princess every single night. so, really, it's fine. they can both pretend no one is naked here.

more importantly, denji looks absolutely confused and goes straight into it. ]

Are you gay?!

[lifeprice]

[ Aki should’ve known that he wouldn’t be able to enjoy even something as simple as a bath with Denji around, but it had been at least ten minutes and it had felt almost peaceful. Breathing out, he sinks a little further into the hot water, enjoying it, until -

All good things come to an end

Scowling, he’s about to shout at Denji when the question comes tumbling out, and then he’s staring with an open mouth, as if he wants to get out and knock some sense into him. ]

What the fuck are you talking about? Get out!

[nutkick]

Your conversation! Here!

[ he holds his phone up to the other's face, not that it shows anything specific, but it's a clear hint denji is referring to the brief exchange with a certain white-haired man. it's unlike aki to lie about something like this, or speak of it lightly, so if it's true— then he should be honest about it.

he takes in a breath, shoving the phone back into his pocket as if he proved a point. with both hands on his hips, denji raised an eyebrow and rolled his eyes to the side. ]

Fucking hell. You're going through it, huh? Being sad made you switch sides so fast. This is getting really serious ...

[ how is he supposed to help aki now? this is turning into mission impossible. ]

[lifeprice]

What, you -

[ Aki looks over the conversation again and sighs, shaking his head. He should’ve known that this would come and bite him in the ass, but he didn’t think it would be this soon. There goes his peaceful, enjoyable bath, and he shifts a little as he makes himself a little more comfortable.

Sitting up a little, he scowls at Denji. ]

I didn’t switch sides, you idiot. I didn’t ever have a side.

[ Rubbing his face, he pushes Denji back a little. He can’t really get out of the bath with him being shouted at, but he’ll have to deal with this. It’s not like he can go anywhere else or do anything else, because he knows Denji would just follow him around. ]

I’ve always liked men and women.

[nutkick]

[ and denji didn't budge, not even an inch— he kept staring the other down, almost in a condescending manner from this perspective and it got even worse when his features twisted into genuine annoyance. this is a tasteless joke, even for someone as crude as denji. this is turning into a bizarre day.

alright, but this is aki. the guy can be many things but he's not a flat-out liar or someone who would openly ridicule his friend's intelligence to this extent. yet, he's dropping a really big confession all of a sudden— one that makes no fucking sense to denji at all. so, yes, he's annoyed. ]

... really?

[ oh, they're actually doing this right now. the echo between the bathroom walls is making this conversation even more unserious. ]

How can someone love dick and peaches at the same time?!

( TEXT. ) un: monkey.d.ginchan

[jumpfesta]

_{[ He feels.. so weird doing this, mostly cause he hasn’t done something like this before. Not over text, at least. Try not to be weird. ]}

hey pretty boy.
i got some handmade wax candles from one of the old hags down the street. don’t think she knows i wanna use them for a different purpose. they’re red.

wanna have some fun tonight?

_{[ THAT SOUNDED OKAY, RIGHT? ]}

[lifeprice]

[ Getting this while he was almost spooning with Denji was pretty embarrassing - and he's still flushed from being called "pretty boy", so there's a level of mortification about him. Those two things combined means it's a few hours before he manages to reply, leaving Gintoki on read for a likely inappropriate amount of time given the content. ]

Sorry about the delay, I was dealing with something.

I can't do tonight, but are you free tomorrow?

[jumpfesta]

<sub>[ He gets it. He probably texted him while he was taking a shit or something. It’s all good.

Gintoki wasn’t sure if he would get a rejection and honestly he was half expecting it considering he has a hard time scoring at home. This doesn’t seem like to be the case. ]</sub>

oh uh..
tomorrow is great for me, that’s fine.
we can also do something else if you want.. i mean..
maybe something you really like.

[lifeprice]

[ He was raising his dragon, he's a father now...

Again... ]

The candles sound interesting. I've never done that before.

If I had to pick something? I'd blow you.

[jumpfesta]

_{[ SLAMS THE NUT BUTTON ]}

oh well that sounds much better than anything else i have in mind

_{[ --sort of a lie but ALSO, LIKE, I MEAN WHO DOESN'T WANT TO HAVE A DICK SUCKER AROUND? The suggestion is so vanilla and cute, though. Gintoki can't help but find it kind of adorable. ]}

guess who (again)

[jumpfesta]

what ya wearing right now??

_{[ this is what official fuckbuddies do, right? God, he’s bad at this.. which might be one of the reasons he’s tipsy from a tavern visit right now. ]}

[lifeprice]

[ wow, they're really official now. ]

Sweatpant style trousers.

[jumpfesta]

_{[ dude is wasted ]}

[beigeacademia]

Hello, would you be free this afternoon to meet up? I can come to your place.

[lifeprice]

[ Aki hadn't been avoiding him, necessarily, just... Mortified into silence. ]

That sounds fine. I don't think Nayuta or Denji will be around, so it'll be quiet.

-> action

[beigeacademia]

Sure. I'll see you then.

[Afternoon brings a knock on Aki's door. To escape the heat Elias is sporting a plain parasol, and in his other hand is a wrapped package tied up with string. As promised, he's brought a gift.]

Hi.

[lifeprice]

[ Offering a little bow, Aki motions for Elias to come inside, leading the way towards the kitchen. ]

Ignore the mess, please. I'm trying to keep Denji and Nayuta in line, but they don't always listen.
