Week 5 | Friday, post investigation

[concasse]

[The lounge is likely gonna see a lot of traffic tonight.

Which is why it's probably odd that Sanji chooses to spend any amount of time in here. It's not like he wants to be around people; him fleeing the foyer made that very clear. Luckily for him, there's a pocket of time in which it's only him around, ordering drinks and slowly gathering a collection of empty glasses that make his slightly reddened face and bloodshot eyes very, very explainable.

No one said grief was pretty.]

Your Editor partner, then? I know there are two of you.

... Anyway, this is just a heads-up that Akechi's trying to hunt you guys down—probably to take revenge for her. So, be careful around him.

[concasse]

Tch. Figured. That's why I didn't see a point in lying.

[And just. Snorting at the mention of Akechi.]

Noted. Lucky for him, Eichi's someone I want to survive as long as possible, so he gets a free pass.

[axilium]

I feel like at this point, Akechi should remember to thank Eichi every week for contributing to his continued survival.

[Okay, actually laughing into his glass of alcohol]

Damn right.

[Shakes head]

... Well, in any case. I need to track down my partner and see if he's still alive.

[He says it like a joke, but the threat of it is real. They didn't find that third body, after all.]

We'll keep in touch, I guess.
