Not with all of us, necessarily.

[like, stick with chuuya if you want, hige, he doesn't mind--]

It's more like... if you want something specific out of one of us, you'll probably have to sleep with us for it? The particulars are a little fuzzy, but-- keep coming back, and I think that's going to help you out here.

If you haven't asked any of the others yet, it'll probably help more if you stick with me. I don't think it's really a collaborative effort.

[banzais]

Is that so...

[he'll just

let his head rest more heavily in chuuya's hand then]

Then please continue to take care of me.

[doublesmall]

[put that icon away thanks he's too cute... chuuya thinks he's pretty lucky, tbh?]

I like to think I'm pretty good at that. You can call on me whenever you want.

[or just like let me know when you want to handwave bc that's still valid]

[banzais]

[hige is well aware that he's cute and it's criminal!! but that doesn't actually manage to pull away from the sincerity in his smile that comes after that]

You've been very good at looking after me so far.

[hige got answers?? he's pleased tbh]

Please let me know if there's any way that I can return the favor - normally I'm the one doing the protecting, you know?

[doublesmall]

Hah-- we're in the same kind of position, then.

[he breathes out a little laugh at that, shaking his head.]

I'm used to trying to keep the people working for me safe, so I don't know much about being on the other end of that... but I'll let you know.

[banzais]

Well, it's not as though I intend to go anywhere.

[so he'll be around for chuuya to ask favors from whenever, he thinks??]

Do you miss your - mm, men? Soldiers? Troops...?

[he doesn't know the modern word for it]

[doublesmall]

...yeah, to an extent. It's probably better that my subordinates aren't here, considering everything, but-- I'm used to keeping an eye on them. Having some of them around. It's a little weird to go drinking without Hirotsu and Kajii.

[his brows furrow there as he mutters, a little more to himself-]

Wonder what Anesan would have to say about all this, too.

[banzais]

[higekiri hums softly as he listens to that, tilting his head]

... Anesan...? You have a sister?

[siblings....!!]

[doublesmall]

We're not related, but-- she was sort of a mentor type, you know? I got assigned to her when I joined the mafia.

[he's grinning slightly as he continues-]

She used to scold me for calling her that, said she wasn't old enough for it.

[banzais]

[oh... his expression eases into something fond at that]

Eh? And you do it anyway? What a mischievous younger brother.

[hige is so spoiled and does not realize]
