idk pretend there's a title here

Who: Akira, Shido, and whoever else! It's open!
What: recovery from the fissure, beating up Shido, Dogkira
When: ICly, April 20 - 27; OOCly, May 2 - 9 (so, it's mostly backdated!)
Where: roof, kitchen, beach, etc!
Warnings: Shido


a) for AW YEAH C O F F E E . . .

[ The last thing he remembers is looking at the day on the makeshift calendar he's made. That's why April 20th feels like any other Friday to him - the kind of Friday that leaves him lightly jolting awake, his heart pounding. And, it's not until after several seconds pass of total silence, he releases a laugh... It amounts to nothing more than a puff of air laced with some bitterness. How much longer before he finally stops doing that?

Well, he's not getting back to sleep anytime soon... even if he does feel like he hasn't slept nearly enough.

It's after he's managed to navigate his shared bedroom like it's a Palace - as stealthily as possible, for the sake of not disturbing Goro and Kurama, he makes his way down to the kitchen. Ehhhh... a full meal isn't going to happen just yet, but that doesn't mean he can't enjoy some snacks, right? And some coffee... Lots... and lots of coffee.

No, seriously, somebody might catch him while he's on his third cup (and still looking pretty damn exhausted. Alternatively, maybe they're catching him while his face is pressed against the countertop.

He's fine... Just tired.

Akira will spend the next several days primarily on the rooftop (where he'll be reading or writing), except when he's hanging out in the kitchen (where he'll just be sitting at... or on the counter, because he's a heathen like that).

Around the 24th, he can be seen doing all of the above plus playing some video games. Those goshdarn millennials and their fancy TV games. ]




b) for BACK TO THE LAND OF THE LIVING?

[ And it's starting around the 25th, that he can be seen looking even more lively than he did by the 24th.

He can be seen spending more time outside... and snacking more often? When was the last time he ate a proper meal, though... Well, whatever, he's eating, and that's all that matters! At least they're healthy snacks? ... Listen, Morgana...

... Chips come from potatoes.

If someone wants to lecture him, he can be found in the library and on the beach the most. ]




c) for CLOSED TO THAT ONE ASSHOLE NAMED SHIDO

[ It's on some random day, just after the whole Network Stuff Happened, he's out on the beach, intending to do some training. He's... cooled off a lot, but that doesn't take away from the restlessness. He'd meant it about the hand-to-hand sparring stuff, but Robin was right about Wound Up being an understatement. Maybe people should cool off before going at each other.

... Not to mention, maybe he could just use some time to clear his head out here, mostly alone.

Which... heh. Guess he wasn't the only one thinking this. They say speak of the devil, and he will come, but what does it say about a devil who's there without being spoken of?

Sigh... okay. He'd meant what he'd said to Prompto - he needs to just... find a way to work through his own feelings, after all, if he wants to help Goro work through his. So, with a deep breath, he walks right over to the older man. His tone is deadpan. ]


Didn't expect you to be the type to enjoy long walks on the beach.



d) for DOGGO STUFF

[ SOME TIME AFTER THE PALACE HEIST THING...

Akira's been feeling a bit weird since even before heading into the Palace. Granted, it was kind of clear something happened to him as a result of helping stabilize the Fissure...

Well, in any case, it's made clear the morning after Chapter: Izunia Palace is officially closed. He's tried running, tried multiple forms of exercise to just... get rid of that feeling! And, it's as he's out on the roof, he's reading in an attempt to just... ignore that weird feeling that nothing else seems to be helping with.

Eventually, it does help? In fact, he dozes off...

And that's what leads to an opportunity for people to wander up to the roof and find a dog curled up right where Akira was sitting. All of his things are still there... Hm. ]

I don't know, I think it just takes exceptional skill to steal a thief.

[He wanders over, container of apple chips in hand, to kiss Akira on the cheek. At the same time, he presses the container into Akira's hands.]

This should make for a better snack, dear.
byanyother_name: (Well...)

[personal profile] byanyother_name 2018-05-09 08:11 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, just think how skilled I must be, that I managed to steal two.

[It's slyly playful, Kurama's voice raised just enough to be heard. There are noises coming from the kitchen as Kurama gathers things. The rattle of pots and pans, the sound of doors and drawers opening and closing.]

Has he had any training to go with all that experience, or is he as much of a natural as you two?

[Morgana bats at Akira's hand, nose scrunching up as he's booped. Still, he won't protest ear scratching, he guesses.....]

It had better be healthier than chips! He doesn't need more encouragement to eat junk food. You guys never saw him take on those burger challenges.....
foolishjustice: (Shall I explain?)

[personal profile] foolishjustice 2018-05-11 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
I already ate the rest of the salads I found.

[He wraps an arm around Akira, partly out of affection...and partly to make sure he can't escape being fed.]

It's apple chips. Much more like actual food than anything served at Big Bang Burger.

Oh, a little of both, Morgana. And they've been teaching me about the Metaverse, which doesn't exist where I came from.

[Chopping noises are starting from inside the kitchen. Kurama trusts Goro to keep Akira occupied, so he's free to focus on the cooking.]

Are you sure it doesn't exist? Maybe you just didn't know about it because you couldn't access it.

[After all, as far as he knows, Kurama is just a normal guy, right? Maybe one with powers now, but still someone who would have no reason to initially know about the Metaverse.

He immediately turns to give Akira an accusing look, though, dramatically pointing a paw at him.]


Oh no you don't! You're not getting out of it that easily! Akechi went to the trouble of finding you a decent snack, so you're going to sit there and eat it.
foolishjustice: (Nice day isn't it?)

[personal profile] foolishjustice 2018-05-15 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't completely hold Akira still, but moves with him, subtly inching behind so he can't move away from the kitchen. And no, he's not letting go...in fact, he's resting his head on Akira's shoulder.]

It would be awfully rude of you to ignore the effort I went to.

[He gives a light kiss to Akira's cheek, then looks at Morgana.]

Ah, by the way, Morgana...you don't need to be so formal if you don't want to. I'm trying not to be quite so distant anymore.
byanyother_name: (No big deal)

[personal profile] byanyother_name 2018-05-23 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds like that's not really something you can offer... [Yes, there is a hint of laughter to Kurama's tone as he replies to Akira. He sounds a lot more serious when he answers Morgana's question to him, though.]

I'm quite sure, I checked the Nav when I went home before I found myself here. It wouldn't really fit well in the cosmology of my home to begin with. Some of the beings you know as Shadows are living demons, even aside from the difficulty of how to juggle the cognition of three overlapping worlds.

Well, as long as you're sure..... c'mon, then!

[After all, Morgana..... really isn't one for honorifics, honestly. (Lady Ann, of course, being the glaringly obvious exception.) Once he switches over, it'll be straight to plain, very familiar Goro.

He bounds off for the kitchen at that, tail held high.]


Three worlds, huh? What's the difference between them?

[How does cosmology have anything to do with cognition? You'd think that would just be represented by a divided Mementos, or something.....]
