I think he liked most people here on some base level.
[ Mahito really just seemed to vibe in one way or another.
Medb isn't going to point out that getting him out through vote meant that someone would've had to go against him in execution, but it's fine since it's no longer something that can happen? She supposes. ]
Do you not say thank you often?
[ Or does he not hear things that he can say thank you to often? ]
Either way, he has considered the execution, too. No use to talk about it now that people are... Dead. Very dead. Aoi and Lenore being gone saddens him and his thoughts wander, until.
Oh. His stuttering made it difficult to understand. ]
No, I meant that it's weird to say that I was happy to hear you would defend me.
[ ara and i shaking hands. He rubs his neck a bit, though his fingers curl right after. ]
I know a couple of people have said they're going to look out for me, but I think it still gets me every time? No one says that at home. So... It's weird! Weird to hear it, weird to acknowledge it... Respond to it.
[ Gojou accepts the cheek kiss, goes as far as to return it, and stays quiet because... His reputation is fat. It doesn't blame people at home for believing he has everything handled. But maybe she's right?
Anyway, he snorts. ]
Maybe I am more obnoxious at home! [ ... ] Are you still hiding whatever you're hiding with your hair?
[ She is not! Enough happened last night that she's less reluctant in showing what happened to her face.
Still, she sighs and shifts so he can get a better look. ]
I'm going back in to make it go away.
[ But there's a heart-shaped scar on her face. It's off-center and covers the majority of the right side of her face. It cuts through her eye, and she can currently only half-see through that eye. ]
[ He tilts his head to look at it, though he doesn't make any comment since he's sure it might insult her in some way. Not even going to touch it. Instead, he merely brushes some of her hair away with a smile. Good that she's feeling confident. ]
Another jump in will be good for you. [ ... He supposes he should be honest with her since they're on injuries. ] I woke up to some wounds, too. Except I don't know where they came from.
It really isn't... It's not like we were able to really pin people down for powers—or I must have been knocked out so hard by those lights and the video that I didn't feel anything they did to me.
[ He massages his temples then goes to get the camera. ]
A friend bandaged them up for me, but I have pictures of it for people to reference tomorrow.
[ Taking a seat, he shows her. As she gets closer, she will notice a single, very shallow cut stretches across his neck on the front that shows above his sweater. In the photos he shows, there are various and numerous cut wounds concentrated on his upper body, a few bruises like he's been punched. Defensive, blocking slices on his arms, and a few haphazard slices across his back and sides. On his left side, there's "100 <3" partially cut, and partially scratched into his skin. ]
[ That does not sound great? What lights? What video? Gojou?
But she looks at these photos. That's quite a lot. ]
Huh. I wonder who these got transferred from. If they're from whoever went after Mahito, this is... quite the frame job. You really have been singled out, if so.
Library. You know, the video that usually plays on the TV in each room and in the hallway on the night the doors lock? Same one.
[ UNLESS I AM REMEMBERING THIS WRONG. i thought it was always a thing. If not, just.... shoot me. And yeah, there is a lot. ]
... There was a surge of emotions when I woke up, too. It was quite a spiral and I would say it's possible that it's from Mahito because it was a wild ride, but I know people go into a frenzy when they're facing or dealing death.
There is something off about it. I don't know if it's off because they aren't my emotions or if there's a different tint to them.
Hm... At first it felt like distaste? Like they were disgusted. Got surprised, angry, then things started to scramble. I think it's panic, but it doesn't last long. Suddenly there's mild intrigue, like they're curious—they're composed again, but there's something weird about it. I think they're annoyed.
... Adrenaline. They love the thrill of fighting. It's almost primal, but that annoyed feeling is still there. They're very frustrated, then a hint of fear. Tired... Amused.
Yielding, peace? But then sadness, regrets, questions.
[ ISN'T THAT A ROLLER COASTER. ]
I want to say I'm pretty sure it's Mahito because of the feral part, but.
[ Shrugs. He knows there are people that love to fight here, too. ]
I don't know if they'd be connected. It's not like Mineo got emotions connected to what got sent to him last week.
[ She's pretty sure? ]
I think they're separate. [ She hums. ] It could help provide insight to what happened, but I don't know how it'd point to who the culprit is. [ If they are Mahito's feelings. ]
You really are a curse magnet this week. [ She sounds a little tired of it honestly. ] Have you asked for an extra ability from an Avatar yet?
[ Her extreme judgment permeates her voice and her expression. She thinks that's absolutely ridiculous.
looks blearily at power reveals during trial ]
I haven't asked for one, only if certain ones existed. But there's one that should be able to block the use of a power. You might want to ask about it for yourself.

You can be really obnoxious, but you're likeable. Obviously, if there are other people who say that.
Maybe you're even more obnoxious at home, or maybe people need to be less stupid about your reputation.

Are you going to bring it up tomorrow?
no subject
[ He really doesn't know what's happening, Medb. It's very telling cause wow. He's just as confused. ]
Does it even seem useful? It could just look like I'm trying to pin what I have on a dead man. I might keep it to myself until someone asks.
