Akechi still isn't sure what to make of him. He'd fully been prepared never to see him again, after all. Even having maxed out his confidant rank with him... Akira still feels like an enigma to him. And that doesn't even begin to touch on what happened on Shido's ship. So many damn conflicting emotions all surfacing at once...
For a moment his smile fades, a slightly guarded look coming to his face, as though he isn't sure he wants to deal with this particular boy right now or ever... really... He ends up not dismissing or ignoring him, but there's no hiding the way his very presence elicits another drink of alcohol from Akechi. He swallows it down and coughs a bit. Damn, that does burn.
But it's less painful than dealing with these stupid emotions Akira wrenches out of him.]
Were you hoping for a full-fledged report? So how are you planning on paying?
[He shoots Akira a smirk that... might be just on this side of playful...]
what's it look like he's doin, bc that's what it is
