I don’t think so. We can still sleep separately from each other. I only usually crawl into your bed after nightmares. Unless you wanna sleep together?
Not sure. They’re older though. And, hmm, I don’t know. I used to look up to your dad, but that was before I knew him for what he is. Who would you choose?
i dunno. guess we'll have to see about that too. but i don't mind it when you crawl into my bed after a nightmare. as long as you ask, which you always do.
they wouldn't believe it even if i told them. they all just see what they wanna see. i bet half the kids here look up to him and they wanna be like him. even you were like that. you thought he was this amazing hero
i dont wanna do this anymore. i need to get out of here.
[ he doesn't respond, and he considers going the complete opposite way so he doesn't have to see keigo, but then he feels bad and he heads there anyway, sneaking out to go meet by the tree.
he hides behind it, trying not to cry, but he finds himself wiping away at his tears angrily anyway. ]
[keigo is desperately worried as he leaves in a hurry. he’s not sure what happened at all, but he needs to make sure touya was safe, first and foremost.
it’s easy to go outside, no teachers or handlers noticing. as long as they were together though, then they were following the rules. with the use of his wings, keigo rushes to the tree he recommended, going around to the back where he sees touya crying.]
Tou, what happened? Did you get hurt?
[it’s impossible to keep the worry away. what could have happened??]
[ he hears the flap of wings before he sees keigo, so he gives up on wiping away his tears because he can't stop anyway. he's so angry though. he feels like he's always angry lately. ]
I'm not hurt!
[he snaps, but then he feels bad about that too, so he moves away and sits down by the base of the tree, covering his head with his hands as he draws his knees up.]
[the snap has keigo tensing, foot taking a step back. it’s not touya’s fault for the reaction either. there’s just some things keigo can’t block from his childhood just yet.
his body comes to relax though, as touya goes and sits down. he follows, taking a seat in front of his friend.]
[ he doesn't look at keigo at all. he just keeps his head down and his fingers digging into his hair. ]
A hero... yeah, right. Is that really what they're teaching us to be? And then what? We get to work with pro-heroes like my dad?? That's not being a hero.
Teaching us to be that way isn't gonna make us be heroes!

Date: 2021-03-18 04:25 am (UTC)you can pretend it's just me. And sometimes it will be.
even our handles, you know. they're not good people.
if you think of something you can let me know too!
no subject
Date: 2021-03-18 05:01 am (UTC)I’d like that, Touya. You always know what to say to comfort me.
I’m starting to see that. They wouldn’t be asking us to perform sexually in front of them otherwise.
I will!
no subject
Date: 2021-03-18 06:04 pm (UTC)wish there was more i can do, but i'm glad i can comfort you sometimes.
yeah. exactly. there's a lot of wrong in this place, i think.
i'm almost done with class. are you getting ready?
no subject
Date: 2021-03-18 06:18 pm (UTC)Just having you as my friend comforts me more than you know.
We can become heroes by being here, right?
And yep! I’m all ready! I’ll get into position and wait for you.
no subject
Date: 2021-03-18 07:04 pm (UTC)i feel the same way, keigo.
yeah. i think so. right?

no subject
Date: 2021-03-18 07:28 pm (UTC)That makes me happy, Touya.
Yeah. It has to be true.
Don’t worry. I’m prepared, hero.

at least we're with other people here too, right?
oh my god, this teacher never stops talking!
no subject
Date: 2021-03-19 12:39 am (UTC)There is a lot here. And I heard some of them say they got to intern with real heroes too.
Isn’t that always the case when you really wanna leave?
no subject
Date: 2021-03-19 12:56 am (UTC)how long were they here before they got to intern?? which pro-hero would you want to intern with?
ugh he's asking some of us to stay even longer.

Date: 2021-03-19 01:07 am (UTC)Not sure. They’re older though. And, hmm, I don’t know. I used to look up to your dad, but that was before I knew him for what he is. Who would you choose?
Uh-oh, what’d you do, mister hero?
no subject
Date: 2021-03-19 01:20 am (UTC)i bet a lot of people still look up to him
i didnt do anything
no subject
Date: 2021-03-19 03:06 am (UTC)He is Number Two. I wish the public knew what he’s like.
Maybe the teacher wants your help?

no subject
Date: 2021-03-19 03:45 am (UTC)I know. And I regret ever thinking he was this great hero. He isn’t a hero at all.
What’s going on? Did something happen with the teacher?

Date: 2021-03-19 05:14 am (UTC)We don’t have to work with your dad. We’ll go elsewhere. They have to be teaching us some stuff here if the older kids are able to intern, right?
[keigo is confused. something had to have happened to touya to be like this. it wasn’t their prior conversation, was it?]
We’re gonna get super strong. We’ll protect each other.
no subject
Date: 2021-03-19 05:22 am (UTC)[and that's always been fine with touya. it's never been a competition with keigo. but keigo doesn't seem to get how any of this is gonna work.]
Half these kids are gonna try and work with my dad anyway. They have no idea. And you're stupid to think we can always protect each other. We can't!
