6/4: Eichi

[randori]

[ Sometime late at night, when the bedrooms first open up, Natsuo seeks Eichi out with the most UPSET LOOK ON HIS FACE, cornering him and physically blocking the way with outstretched arms so Eichi can't get into his own bedroom. ]

It's not fair! Isn't this not fair?! We don't get to sleep together anymore!!

[ How will you grow strong without him? :( ]

[If anything, Natsuo should be worried that Eichi might hurt himself, with how fragile he is. But really, it was clear from the beginning that Natsuo couldn't worry about something like that. Maybe that's why Eichi liked him so much. It was certainly a large part of it.

But this time, fragile, sickly Eichi pulls back his arm, rolls his hand into a fist and punches!!

Wherever he hits, know that if he does hit Natsuo, he will absolutely go flying backwards with a ridiculous amount of super strength, unless he has some way to stop that.]

[randori]

[ hey, wtf is Enstars and why is Eichi the Hulk?

Natsuo was going to just stand there and take the hit, but he's got ten years of fighting experience under his belt, that primal instinct to get out of the way- half step back, turn of the shoulder, one hand to press against Eichi's elbow to redirect the punch and his other hand catch his fist and keep him from shattering his knuckles against the wall or Natsuo's face or whatever's in the way. ]

[finethanks]

[don't ask questions]

Ah— [Eichi seems surprised, and it's clear that he has no idea what he's doing. He doesn't know form, style, he doesn't know how to redirect anything. All he has is an incredible strength that seems to mean he could lift a truck with one hand if he wanted to.

But he was expecting this to be straightforward and simple. Now that it's not, his free hand is shielding his face, and he's trying to duck into himself.]

N-nevermind, stop! It hurts...

[randori]

[ a truck... wtf is Enstars...

But Natsuo lets go immediately; he's surprised too, feeling the stinging in the palm of his hand that'd caught Eichi's punch. Is this the same "0 or 1000% there's no in-between" as being an idol? ]

Wah~ Scary. You're just like my school president.

[finethanks]

[As soon as he's let go, Eichi's legs give out in his brief terror and he drops to the floor. He's shaking a little!]

R-really? I'm student council president myself, so...

[How did he not beat Natsuo?? He doesn't understand. He has to think on this, and for now, he's coughing again.]

I just need a moment, I believe...

[randori]

Yeah, I think he broke his hands punching some tough guys or something...

[ Super reckless and super confident, but also super pretty and charismatic and also a little frightening. ]

But- ah! Go sit down if you need to! Let's go to your room! Do you need me to carry you?!

[ steps aside to let him pass, finally-- was this his plan all along? ... ]

[finethanks]

No, I'm fine on my own, thank you.

[His pride is already wounded! He's going to die just by being in Natsuo's company. He pushes himself to his feet, albeit a little wobbly, and covers another couple of coughs into his hand as he steps past him towards his room.

They're the wind themed dorms, so everything's very light and airy in feeling!]

I really don't believe that Akechi-kun would like you spending the night, Natsuo-kun. Besides that, I was hoping to bond with him, you know?

[Eichi don't make it sound like that]

[randori]

[ Being in Natsuo's company is a health hazard to all, tbh

He hand-hovers over Eichi when he straightens up, and sticks too close otherwise, just in case, but the room as a whole distracts him enough to wander just out of arm's width from him- he goes to the window, staring, and then casts his gaze about the room.

Light and airy's kind of scary. He's used to being in more grounded places; here, it's like he has to be extra careful when his voice and his actions. ]

You guys are getting along? Tell stories at night? Play games? Those sorts of stuff are more fun with more people, you know...

[finethanks]

It's more that we're being forced to get along... He doesn't want to do anything fun like that at all.

[He walks into his room while it's still PEACEFULLY WHITE, and I guess Akechi is off doing things at this hour, for now.]

If he sees that I've pulled you in with me, he might be even less friendly. Why don't you ask him on your own and let him invite you over?

[randori]

[ It's still peacefully white but not for long until it turns neon green, what even happened...... ]

I don't think he'll be jealous if you invite me. We'll all friends, right? But if he says yes, it's okay with you too?

[finethanks]

But you see, if it's him who invites you, it's held over his head. So yes, please ask him first, and if he says it's fine, then it's fine by me, as well.

[Puts it all on Akechi...]

[randori]

I'll go hunt him down, then! You go to sleep! I'll find him for sure and make him agree!!

[ It's not asking so much as it is coercion, but it'll still be on Akechi. ]

[finethanks]

Then, I'm counting on you.

[Hahaha bug Akechi forever he hopes it BOTHERS HIM. Anyway, he'll move over to where he's got his pajamas set aside so he can get ready for sleeping.]

Good night, Natsuo-kun.
