He did his I AM ABSOLUTE AND ALWAYS RIGHT thing
but he didn't try to stab me or anything
he was just his stupid, idiot self
I don't know what I was expecting

[ Of course he knows what he was expecting. For Akashi to treat him like a friend. It was just stupid to expect that. ]

[tsunverde]

Then adjust your expectations.

[redoubles]

I know, I know. He's just been acting kind of different since we got here.
I guess we all have.

[tsunverde]

It's a logical outcome. We have to find new things to focus our attention on without basketball. This setting places new stresses on us. And so on.

[redoubles]

I know all of that!
That's just... why I thought maybe I could expect more from Akashicchi.

[tsunverde]

Do you expect more from me?

[tsunverde]

[Frantically typed out as soon as he hits send and realizes he may have just invited discussion of his sex life.]

In terms of personality. Nothing more.

[redoubles]

You're already nice to me when it matters.

[ He's just not gonna specify if he's talking about personality or sex here, Midorima deserves that. ]

[tsunverde]

I'll have to work on that.

[redoubles]

Then I'll definitely expect you to be nicer to me more often!

[tsunverde]

That wasn't the direction I meant.

[redoubles]

Too late, now I'm expecting it!
You should make me breakfast tomorrow! Breakfast in bed!

[tsunverde]

[He really trusts his cooking?]

If you would like that breakfast dumped on your head.

[This is what he gets for showing any sympathy.]

[redoubles]

[ Hey, breakfast in bed is breakfast in bed. If the food's bad, he can just whine about it. ]

Don't worry, when you say things like that, I know you mean "yes, Kise, I'd love to spend the day with you." ;)

[tsunverde]

Why did I ever move out of my nice empty room again?

[Maybe he's getting breakfast tomorrow. Maybe. Placed exactly 1 meter away from the bed.]

[redoubles]

[ See, Midorima's a marshmallow inside. ]

Because you thought I'd trip and break my neck if I was left to look after myself~

[tsunverde]

And none of the other fools around here are up to the task of keeping you in one piece.

[redoubles]

See, proof that Midorimacchi does care about me!

[tsunverde]

Is there anything else you needed or can I get on with my day?

[Before he incriminates himself any more.]

[redoubles]

I guess I'll let you get away with just this much.
Don't forget it's your turn to cook dinner!

[ And a few seconds later: ]

Thanks, Midorimacchi.

[tsunverde]

[There's no response because it's impossible to text an equivalent of "hmph".

And Kise needs to remember that grateful feeling when he's plotting to make him talk to Akashi.]
