[ Even just the brush of Mayuzumi's fingertips against Akashi's face is enough to generate a cozy, comforting kind of feeling between them. Maybe it's more work on Mayuzumi's part to have to support and reassure Akashi when the guy's having a fragile moment, but it's also gratifying to be relied upon.
He might push back with Akashi when it really counts, but he's also pretty weak to the guy, too. How else could Akashi even get Mayuzumi (and Emerald, too) to consider this moonlacing with other people idea as something remotely acceptable to go along with?
He isn't exactly going to be rushing out to do anything with anyone else, but he's accepted the practicality of what Akashi's proposing. Definitely if it ever actually happens he's going to be very keen on making sure that it's overwritten by one or both of them.
But right now he's done arguing... ]
All right.
[ He lets go, but stays close. ]
Go ahead and rest. We can smooth things over with Em when she gets back.
[ The look Akashi gives Mayuzumi still has traces of guilt, and in fact, he lowers his head and bows to show his gratitude and how sorry he is. ]
Thank you. I just—
[ He wants to be by himself for a moment. He wants to think, to mull over what happened, and brood over how he's always arguing with both of them and how they'll probably grow tired of him eventually. Mayuzumi said he'd never leave... but Akashi also needs to do better to make sure they never entertain the idea of it. ]
Nevermind.
[ He'll rest in Mayuzumi and Emerald's room, taking Mayuzumi's side so he can lay down and stare at the ceiling. Though he'll unintentionally fall asleep if he's left alone for more than ten minutes. ]
