I wanna pick him up and throw him in the ocean but then he'd probably climb out and kill me and it'd suck even worse `(๑ △ ๑)`*

[tsunverde]

[He has never in his life been happier to receive a message from Kise, just by virtue of the fact that it doesn't contain a single mention of sexual implements.]

If you're planning to commit murder, only an idiot would leave behind messages describing the plan.

[redoubles]

[ Just wait until he finds out it's about the continuing cold war with Akashi! ]

I wouldn't kill him. Just make him SUFFER

[tsunverde]

If I ask you who you're talking about now, will that save time and keep this conversation from going on forever?

[redoubles]

Probably. I'm talking about Akashicchi, duh.

[tsunverde]

Of course. How could I have not guessed?

[Akashi being someone people enjoy making suffer aside.]

[redoubles]

I don't know! He was awful!

[tsunverde]

That was sarcasm, you fool. I have no way of knowing what your particular problem is with Akashi.

[Again, besides him being so...Akashi.]

[redoubles]

He was a huge jerk! I was really worried about something and he totally ignored it!
He's such a self-centered idiot, I hope he gets eaten by something!

[tsunverde]

You were probably worried about something pointless.

[redoubles]

[ There's a long pause before Kise's next message comes. ]

You're right, it was something stupid. Never mind.

[tsunverde]

[Kise's agreement is unsettling.]

You'll only show your further stupidity if you allow it to continue to bother you.

["Don't worry too much" in Midorima-speak?]

[redoubles]

Who said it was still bothering me? I'm totally fine now!

[tsunverde]

Then I should be concerned about how often you want to throw me in the ocean and make me suffer when that's how you act when you feel "totally fine" towards someone?

[redoubles]

Not you, just Akashicchi! I'm used to you being mean to me, if you weren't, I'd think you were sick or something.

[tsunverde]

That sounds like it's still bothering you.

[redoubles]

That's because Akashicchi's still being a jerk!
...more of a jerk than usual.

[tsunverde]

Have you told him he's upset you or is this the one time you've managed to keep a thought from spilling out the minute you had it?

[redoubles]

I yelled at him a lot, he knows.

[tsunverde]

[Should he...

No.

Yes, he has to ask.]

How did he take the shouting?

[Any strange threats?]

[redoubles]

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.
