[ Trust him... he knows. The idea has him far more uncomfortable than he'd like to admit. ]

You really like the word "I" ... [ Not that he has any room to talk. A twinge of guilt attempts to sink in, but he sighs. ] I would think you of all people would know, but you can't do everything by yourself.

[ Concern. He wishes he had more experience in shielding emotions over this damn thing... ] I can't imagine how stressful this must be for you. I know there isn't much I can do to help right now, but... I do want to. Don't hesitate to ask me.

[. . . Akechi's right about that. and he knows he has a tendency to push himself, to carry more burdens than he can actually manage. it's not the first time someone has called him out on it]

[it is the first time Akechi has, and that makes it weird]

[especially coupled with the offer for help. he hesitates, before--]

I'm fine. [truly] Takes a lot more than messing with people's memories to knock me off of my feet.

[you should know, almost tumbles from his mouth. but that's. . . too familiar. even for an Akechi who, for some reason, thinks they're friends]

But, thanks.
