Afterparty II: Two Hearts, One Valve

[purefuries]

[ There's some joke about pizza to be made after all of that, but the bakery is broken, so we'll make do. The gathering seems to be happening outside this time, just around the entrance to the lodgings building, someone having left small notes and quick knocks and promptly disappearing, all saying something about getting fresh air.

Presented on a collection of tables is tea, fish stir-fry courtesy of Edelgard, chazuke from Tenn, and some sweet tarts from Junko. There also seems to be seeds in a bowl...? (Nageki is trying) Some chairs have been dragged out if you'd rather not stand around.

It's nice and breezy out tonight, though. Look up at the moon, and try not to feel too alone. ]

[ Makoto taps the end of his own cigarette, exhaling up at the moon. It's a familiar relief that he'd been missing, even accounting for the difference in taste.

He tilts his head in William's direction at the offer. ]

Oh, so you'd like me to owe you more?

[ Makoto's tone is light, punctuated with a small laugh. He's maybe a bit overconfident in his ability to roll his own. William has created a monster. ]

I'm guessing this isn't how you did things back home either?

[mathodical]

I wouldn't entirely be opposed. Favours are a valid currency, aren't they?

[ :) william is used to creating monsters, this is absolutely fine! ]

Definitely not.

[ another chuckle, and william taps the cigarette so that the ashes fall to the floor again. ]

Cigarettes are a luxury, somewhat. Definitely a step up from opium.

[ at least the cigarettes still allow him to think. ]

[edamamepon]

Well, I'll owe you for this one at least. But it's usually a two way street, in the long run.

[ Makoto leans back, he's still smiling but his gaze doesn't falter. There's no real judgment, just a simple reevaluation. ]

Didn't picture you being an opium user.
