....supernatural ones.
LOOK, I know how that sounds! But there was somebody who could make barriers, and another one who could toss explosions or something!

I missed you too.
[Once he'd remembered, anyway. He's not sure he'll ever stop feeling guilty about it, now that he knows how the whole thing had affected Yato; now that he's seen the relief on his face, the hurt when he'd assumed Yamato still didn't remember. Yamato can hardly imagine--he doesn't even want to try.
It's not much easier now that he does remember, though, not when the situation has come to this. He sighs, resting his head against the bars.]
What are you going to do?

[ He watches his words hit her with very little surprise of his own. Despite her faith in him when he first brought up the subject of violence, Anya is too tender at heart to be happy with another person's pain, whatever they may have done to deserve it. ]
He took Aki's home from her, and tried to take more. She could've died, Anya. It's my fault he ever walked away with a grudge against her, so it's my responsibility to make sure he can never take anything from her again.
[ He speaks in present tense. As far as he's concerned, he isn't done yet. He never planned on being satisfied with a pair of hands.
Clearly, he's upsetting Anya. But he is resolute, gaze unwavering despite the softness that touches his heart when he looks into Anya's eyes. He said once that he didn't want to fight people anymore, but here he is now, still trying to solve his problems with force. Is it the warrior god in him? Or is it just him?
He is resolute, but it doesn't mean he's immune to Anya's sadness. He reaches a hand through the bars, taking hers with it, and brings it to her cheek. He can't hug her, so this is the best he can do. ]
I'll find a way to keep up with work. Don't let me slow you down, Anya.
[ He means production work, of course. There's plenty that can be done with a phone and internet access. He's certain he can manage that much. ]

[ what thE FUCK KASHUU WAIT YOUR TURN ]
You're coming on too?!
[ AND GROSS he doesn't want Kashuu spooning him... How is he going to enjoy his ride now?? He shoots Kashuu an irritated look before scooting forward on the dragon. ]
If you have to know, I was in jail.
[ But he's out now... it's fine... ]

[ shhhhhhhhh he was already out
not for much better reasons, but still
Aaand he arrives at the apartment in record time! It's been about ten minutes since Yato's last message. He bursts through the front door with a little ponytail, light scraping, and his tracksuit jacket held triumphantly in hand. ]
Yasuuu! I'm here!

[ Yato nearly tells Ichirou not to bother, but best not let a cop know you plan on springing yourself out of jail, no matter how many favors he's doing you. Yato opens the beer, listening to the pop with satisfaction before taking a swig.
Normally he'd let the conversation move on from here or end it completely. Maybe it's the offering that keeps him talking, or the company after another boring day in his cell. ]
So that one of you guys might catch him and there might be enough evidence to convict him? I don't really like those odds.

Maybe if you add a "please", I'll consider it.
[Does he really want to give Yato the tools he needs to finish this skirt so he can subject Anya to culottes, though...]

I'm not gonna wait for you to finish just so I can go and look stupid alone!
[If they're going to look stupid, they'll look stupid together!! And in such a way where Kashuu can duck behind Yato and cover his face if anyone tries to take pictures.
Also just
a pause.]
...Why were you in jail?

...You know what, I get it.
I really do.
And maybe if it had been my husband this had happened to, I'd have done something similar. I can't say I've completely gotten over when I was a punk kid.
But at least give the system a chance to work, okay?
A chance.

[WHY IS YATO SUCH AN EXHAUSTING FRIEND]
I could've just sent you a picture! [YATO!!!]
I could've just sent you a picture! [YATO!!!]
[Okay, okay, greedy god. Toshi's indulgent enough and he did make these cookies for Yato so he's happy to gently deposit a paper bag taped closed with cutely decorated tape into Yato's hands.
Gap moe.]
Snickerdoodles, just for you. Bet you're gonna be happy to get home, huh?

Wellm good, but they're still weird as hell to me....
[Mutter, mutter, the pout is almost audible.]
Do you know the park close to the Recollé Recreation + Fitness Center in Apprassage? We can meet there.

Wait 'til things settle down a bit. Then I'll leave, and...
[ Well. His plans haven't changed. He only walked away because there came one witness too many. Maybe there's something wrong with him now, feeling so calm and cold about the idea of ending someone else's life. ]
I want to finish the job. Do you think that's wrong?

[ So he fought, and fought too much. Yato understands. It's easy to get carried away in the thick of the moment.
Yato recalls Majima's awkwardness when he first sat down, the slight hesitation. He thought it might've been because of Majima's unfamiliarity with the setting or the strangeness of talking to someone in the wrong kind of uniform. Maybe it was something else. ]
Were you guys close?
