i thought about leaving it as rise but nah

[sophistications]

[He perks up because this is a new word.]

Yume system? [That's also a yes, please look at him. His eyes are wide and he's leaning in a little closer. Share your wisdom, you strange barney man.]

plasma au where everything the same but tamaki and rise are the same person

[bakaomi]

Mm. One of the way we earn followers.

[ there's a pause ]

It's why people kept thinking we were idols while we were playing, whenever we described it. But it's easier to show than explain.

that's just plasma in general

[sophistications]

I'd like to see for myself then if that's the case. I never quite understood things when Senri mentioned them. Where do we go?

[bakaomi]

[ it looks like he's about to answer tamaki with an actual location

but then he pauses, and just starts walking ]

You'll see.

[ ominous ]

[sophistications]

...that is hardly reassuring, Takaomi-kun. You do know that. [This is super ominous? And yet.] After you, then.

[Lead on, he'll follow.]

[bakaomi]

Good. Now you know how it feels.

[ you guys were ominous as FUCK sometimes, taka does not want to hear a god complain ]

[sophistications]

That was hardly our fault! We were fairly in the dark as well, you know. [That's even less reassuring isn't it.]

[bakaomi]

That doesn't really make me feel any better?

[sophistications]

It's supposed to make us sound relatable! Doesn't that help at all?

[bakaomi]

It depends on what you mean by help?

[sophistications]

Reassuring! Which isn't what you're doing right now. [But he smiles.] Nonetheless, there's still time to teach you the art of anticipation without being threatening.

[Please push him into a rosebush or something.]

[bakaomi]

[ taka looks like he is actually about to do that?

except at that moment a bunch of giggling girls approach them to? ask tamaki questions? like is hew new here??? ]

[sophistications]

[Poor Taka. The problem is that immediately Tamaki turns on the charm, turning to face the girls and immediately spinning some kind of story about being a transfer student from France with a talent as a pianist, a third year who's still learning about the campus and their beautiful school.

There's a lot of flattery here, but Taka knows him by now and can probably see that it's a little different than how he behaved in meetings with contestants in the competition of the gods.

And as the god of beauty, he's definitely sparkling. Oh, and is that a whirlwind of sakura petals appearing out of nowhere? Sure is. Hope Taka enjoys the faceful of flowers.]

[bakaomi]

[ what

what the fuck

TAKA IS LITERALLY LOOKING AROUND??? ]

Did someone leave a fan here...?

[sophistications]

Hm? [He turns to face Taka then like he's just remembered that he's there.] That's a silly question isn't it? [The flowers continue to swirl but now they're changing direction because Tamaki's turned his head.]

[bakaomi]

[ SOFTLY, BUT WITH FEELING, ]

What the fuck.

[sophistications]

[With Tamaki's focus on Takaomi now instead of the fawning girls, the petals stop flowing even as a white rose appears in his hand. Tamaki's left blinking in surprise but not necessarily at this chain of events.]

...ah. This looks strange, doesn't it?

[bakaomi]

Yes.

[ ... ]

But somehow not surprising.

[sophistications]

[He settles for a soft smile because this dumb bitch is taking that as a compliment.]

Because I inspire beauty everywhere that I go?

[bakaomi]

I'm going to dunk your head in a toilet.

[ he

does not deny that tamaki is pretty ]

[sophistications]

[He looks so horrified by this prospect which means his entire expression does a complete 180.]

Jealousy isn't very becoming of you, Takaomi-kun! And the water would do terrible things to my hair.

[Hm.]

[bakaomi]

I'm not jealous.

And good.

[sophistications]

[He brings a finger to his chin, tapping it thoughtfully.]

Statements like that really make it seem like jealousy. Are you sure?

[bakaomi]

Why would I be jealous? You're just like, tall.

[ as if that's the only reason tamaki is attractive ]

[sophistications]

And beautiful, and charming. [He says this with zero irony, though he has the audacity to pat Taka on the head.] Fear not! You have plenty of wonderful qualities yourself, Takaomi-kun. Senri's told me so.

[Stop.]
