[the cursed thing is that chuuya kind of likes that smile just as much as he likes the softer, sincere ones, matching it with a little grin of his own.]
Then yeah, I'd say that qualifies. I know the feeling.
Just don't get ahead of yourself before you guys figure out who it was, all right?
...there are ways we have to go about this, you know. Even assuming you guys get it right. The ritual's there for a reason, so if you just go and stab them instead... you know, I'm actually not sure what'd happen.
[there's a pause, there, as he considers.]
Focus that feeling on trying to catch them, and then we'll see where we're at by the end of the day tomorrow.
... I can't say that I care for having to wait for rituals.
[if he's being honest? and he is, but regardless he'll just sigh and be thoughtful about it. yes, his brother is in pain so he wants to cut down whoever did it as soon as possible? he might move automatically - but...
well.
if it'll just be useless and not actually release the demon...]
You and me both. Believe me, if they could just be stabbed and have it done with, I'd be encouraging you guys to go after them as soon as you figure it out.
[waiting on rituals sucks? he'd much rather have just shanked polly immediately.]
But it is what it is. We'll be counting on all of you tomorrow to get this business taken care of.
But you're right, it's only good the one time. You just have to wait a while to use it-- put effort into cracking it yourselves before we can help you out, and all.
... very well, very well. Mine will go to my brother then.
[just so hizamaru will have the chance to claim more clues as he wishes. higekiri will finally sigh, moving to undo the top buttons of his shirt to continue undressing]
Maybe a distraction is in order? If you are still willing, of course.
[and he'll let his hand slide over to chuuya's jaw, guiding him closer to press their lips together, letting himself forget the mission for just a brief reprieve

You're asking me to stay my sword?

... If it's from you, I'll consider complying.

[he wonders if it'll make him feel better? or if he just misses the notion of cutting into something - someone - given the nature of his existence.]
One more question... Is the 'voucher' for clues only good for one use? How does it get used tomorrow?
no subject
[because he wouldn't mind letting it happen.]

[hate that! chuuya grins at that, naturally, reaching over to help with those buttons.]
All you have to do is say so.

Then consider this my say so.
