Moving in together...
Who: Shinjiro Aragaki and Akihiko Sanada
What: Getting a place, together, and possibly figuring out the whole working thing.
When: After Aki finally got snapped out of it.
Rating: PG-13, because they certainly don't have the mouths of saints.
Well, he's definitely glad to have Aki back to normal, that's for sure...
After figuring out that they weren't going to be leaving anytime soon, they realized that they needed a place to live. Shinjiro reread the pamphlet and searched through the device. With that, he was taking Aki to look for apartments. Of course, this left Shinjiro contemplating asking what they should do with the Kirijo girl. She'd need a place to live, too, right? Well, he'd worry about figuring that out, later. For the time being, he and Aki had to get off of the streets. It was weird- the idea of them living on their own. Even in the dorm, they'd had a "housemother", of sorts, who cooked the meals for them...and made sure everyone behaved, or whatever.
So, it was going to take some getting used to, that was for sure, "Alright, let's go."
Shinjiro let out a sigh and stared up at the building, steel-colored eyes narrowing just a bit. Time to check out the inside. Glancing to his best friend, he walked up the steps and opened the door.

Though, he didn't. At all. The shirt was off before Shinjiro really had a chance to assist. Hesitantly, Shinjiro removed teh bandage. The question made his gut tighten unhappily. He didn't...want to tell him. Shinjiro's brow tensed and he looked to the side.
"Know how...you can't remember what happened, when you first arrived?" He knew that wouldn't be enough to tell Aki what happened, though...
"You attacked us while under the Charm spell. I didn't wanna tell you since there's no point in..." He frowned and started over, "Look, you don't even remember what happened, so..."
...Never mind.

His frown creased even deeper as he inspected the damage, up close and personal. Akihiko was careful not to touch it, though he was already planning to cast his healing spell. More than once, if needed, by the appearance and apparent lingering pain. The wound looked pretty bad… almost fresh, like it had happened not long ago. The marks resembled… claws… and that was when he started to get a sinking feeling in his stomach.
And once Shinji confirmed where it came from, his fingers dug harder into his arm, unconsciously. “I… did this?”
His expression darkened with guilt. The hell was Charm? He didn’t remember a damn thing, after that one encounter with Shadows in Tartarus. What about Mitsuru? Had he hurt her too? His body tensed up at the possibility, and Akihiko had to look away for a few minutes. Why hadn’t he resisted those effects, somehow? Hadn’t anything changed, in the years since the fire?
Staying quiet, Akihiko took out his Evoker and pulled the trigger. Polydeuces appeared in front of him for a brief moment, and cast a soft green light over Shinji. The boxer kept his eyes on the injury, watching to see if it would heal completely, or needed a second dose of healing.

That didn't stop him, though. Glancing over, he could see that the injury was almost completely gone. All that remained was a bright reddish-colored spot where a claw had gone in the deepest.
"Thanks, Aki..."
Steel-colored eyes moved to rest on the boxer. He was fine with the lingering spot, actually. Of course, if Aki wanted to use up more of his energy to heal a tiny spot- well, he kind of already knew there was nothing he'd be able to say to stop it. His friend was stubborn like that, after all. Not to mention, Shinjiro was steadily attempting to come up with something to say...He wanted to reassure his best friend that he hadn't actually done...anything wrong? It wasn't like he'd knowingly hurt Shinjiro. But, he basically knew what the look on Aki's face had meant. It was annoying, actually. He wanted to grab his best friend and just...shake him, or something.
no subject
Not that any of this criteria stopped Akihiko from wanting to cast the healing spell again. When the soft light faded this time, he slid his Evoker back into its holster, still holding a somber expression. Why had Shinji been so damn stubborn when it came to an injury like this? Just to save his feelings? Stupid idiot…
Akihiko shook his head, blatantly refusing the thanks. He didn’t deserve it. He was the one that had wounded Shinji. True, his best friend had looked out for him the past few years, pushed him to keep moving forward, even when it seemed like the suffocating darkness would never lift. But this wasn’t something Akihiko could just… overlook, without feeling an ounce of guilt.
Turning his face to the side, he muttered quietly, “Is there anywhere else we’re supposed to look at…?”

"Just stop, already! Damn it, this is why I didn't even wanna tell you!"
He wasn't even going to bother hiding his irritation. They'd kind of always been able to tell one another everything, save for that one incident- but, as he'd said, that was why he hadn't wanted to tell Aki. Shinjiro let out a sigh and scrubbed a hand through his hair.
"Look, I get it. I'd feel like shit if I hurt you, but...it still doesn't change the fact that it wasn't something you could've stopped. And, it could've been worse- a lot worse. But, it wasn't. In the end, we're all okay."

By the time his friend came around to get into his line of sight, Akihiko had a pained look on his face. His frown deepened even more, and with a loud scoff, he turned away again. Yeah, that would have been real smart for Shinji to do. Keep things a secret from him, so that when he eventually found out, he could feel worse. And Kirijo was in on this too. She knew, and didn’t tell him either.
“Is Kirijo okay?” He sounded cold and detached, asking that, even though he didn’t mean to. Kirijo had that icy exterior whenever they talked, but he chalked it up to her usual attitude, thinking nothing was different between them. Maybe he was just being blind, this whole time. “Did I hurt her too?”
Tch… Akihiko knew he wasn’t going to just get over it, that easily. But he didn’t want to piss Shinji off either, so he just waved a hand at him, dismissively. “Yeah… not like it’d ever happen again or anything, right?” Because that was his second biggest fear, wounding Shinji even deeper, if he ever got Charmed again.
