[chifuyu. @pekejstan]

( thankfully, chifuyu is nowhere near picky as some people. it's the thought that counts! )

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

we ain't. the best at decoratin'. heh.

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

yeah, we did! but the cake looked really fuckin' ugly by both of our standards, so that's why ya got a couple slices and not a whole one,

[chifuyu. @pekejstan]

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

@pekejstan, happy birthday, punk. heh.

( its a piece of cake! )

from mom and i.

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

roar it always has just by the mention of the older man's name - " was me dyin' for nothin'? mikey, we need you. they need you! they care so much for you, and you're just pushin' them away, just like you used to! you can't keep doing that to people! "

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

" they DO! "

it feels more like their childhood now. baji raising his voice like he used to when mikey and him argued. those fangs visible, the anger so clear on his face, but the tears that blur his eyes nearly spill from their resting place.

for once, baji looks frazzled. he looks mad, upset, like if he wasn't dead already, he would be wishing he was right now.

" they DO need you! everyone needs you! was all of this for nothin', huh?! was emma dyin' for nothin', was shin- " a deep inhale, his voice losing that

" you can't keep doin' this to yourself. "

" but i did it myself. i was the one who sent me to my own grave. "

he sounds so quiet, picking mindlessly at the blanket he's on, but he barely does anything.

" mikey, it's not you that's the problem, its... all of this. the gangs, the fighting, the...

everything. toman got too big. and you can't handle that on your own. that's why draken was there, why pah and mitsuya.. me an' 'tora. we made it to protect others and ourselves. "

his eyes look at mikey, maybe past him, even. his frame looks so... small. tiny.

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

spreading on his face.

" we used to tell each other everything. so why is it different now? because 'm dead? that feels like a bullshit excuse, if ya ask me. "

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

" it doesn't hurt to tell me, though. "

the air in the room feels stagnant, save for the coolness that baji brings over his bed. his fingers pick at the old, tattered blanket mindlessly, eyes never meeting manjirou's.

" remember when i used to stay over? " he says, a grin

like he's talking like they used to during sleepovers - barely a whisper.

" why? "

[— 場地圭介. @tomansflame]

he's there, leaning against the door of his room, wearing the same outfit he had on when he died. finally shuffling closer, keisuke sits on the edge of the bed, barely making it dip.

" why are you doing this, mikey? "

his question is so heavy, but his tone is so soft.

[マイキー. @RVNAWAY90]

ㅤ
a way for his 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣 to not
make him feel as if he was
