[there's a reason why senri waited a day to see tamaki in particular.
he's calmed down by sunday, cried it all out, and though there's no missing how tired he looks when he enters his room - he offers a small smile]
... it's not over yet.
I have ideas... I'm gonna follow them.

[senri had seen them a few times now - the portraits of people hanging on tamaki's walls. but now that he was walking around their school, he couldn't help but think that it'd be fun to play the part? so when he enters the room it's in a soft blue blazer and black slacks, a cleanly pressed shirt - though given that it's senri, he couldn't help but play around with the accessories. in the place of the tie there's a black ribbon in a bow, and he hasn't forsaken his pins and keychains]
Hehe, I thought I'd pretend I'm an exchange student for our trip!
Is that okay?

... Oh Bambi.
[senri just offers her a soft smile when he walks in, nodding] Uh-huh. Sorry I'm late - I wanted to get you something nice to cheer you up a little before I came by.
[he's slow as he approaches, so that she can pull away if she doesn't want to deal with him reaching up to try to brush his thumb against the cheek of her mask]
What's this old thing for? I already miss your pretty face.

[senri's just laughing, but glad to find her there. that really must mean that she's getting along better with sincerity]
I was given a theater and I plan to use it, you know?
Consider it like a special where I try to wrangle everyone else in the temple onto the same page. What we've learned about the gods, how the game can end - stuff like that! It's not like I'm afraid of public speaking or anything, so I figure now's as good a time as any while I have everything I could need.

[oh my god.
senri pauses for a second - surprised - before his expression breaks out into a huge smile and he's immediately breaking out into a run. no matter how tired, or nervous, or worried he is, this is easily some of the best news he's gotten all week. he'll move to put his hands under sean's arms and lift him way way way up into the air]
Seanbon!! Look at you!

[senri is absolutely sprinting and he's just going to be carrying all his fucking letters straight from Indulgence]
I - I messed up, maybe I messed up, I don't know if I messed up.
[HE FEARS]
.... I know who hurt Ray-kun.
And they're gone now.
But I—what do I do now...?

Ray-kun gave me this.
[JUST HANDS HER THE WHOLEASS LETTER
Senri,
Thanks for the books.
Here's a list of things to keep in mind now that I'm gone. I'll keep things simple: pay attention.
1) Look at this way: you don't have to go out of your way to visit anymore, since there shouldn't be anyone worthwhile hanging around there now.
2) I'll even accept you going to Sincerity and crossdressing again to cope: those pigtails were stupid, though.
3) Trust the people you do: don't trust the people who don't trust you.
4) Agreed: that's such a nasty way to find out, in your words.
5) You don't need me. Keep going.
- Ray (.-. .- -.--)
P.S. Did Takaomi ever tell you about the time Sasuke forced him to take off all his clothes to check something? The shirt was fine, but anything else was... well, you can guess. It was pretty funny. I'm dead now, so I don't have to worry about them coming after me for this.
P.P.S. It's empty here. You'd hate it.]
Catra and Entrapta - right? Every hint points to them. Everything that he and I talked about.
I.... I have to ask the others but - I think I'm going to try to tell everyone tomorrow.
Ray-kun gave me this.

[ . . . . and senri will just pause at that, suddenly feeling entirely out of his depth. he watches tamaki for a moment - before he opts for what's simple. he puts the crepes aside before he moves to kneel on the floor so he can wrap his arms around antoinette, burying his face in her fur]
Hi An-chan.
[and a quiet
peer up at tamaki]
... did someone do something to upset you? ... did I?
[he's done plenty of things wrong this week - he wouldn't be surprised if this was another and he didn't even notice]

Please tell me you've had to turn down three people in seven weeks before.
[because senri is also totally just going to go ahead and start swapping his clothes from the cop costume back to what he was wearing before. cheri was hanging out in his underwear before he doubts that he actually minds]
I don't have time for my own soap opera right now? I'm trying to figure out the end of the game? But oh my god, Cheri, I had to watch a ninja kiss my boyfriend and then he told me he's loved me for uhhhh a while now apparently!!

[ . . . oh a lot happened here. senri is going to pause for a second and he deeply considers moving right out of the room and letting tamaki sleep? he can come back later.
but...
well he's going to wander closer just to see if he's even tucked into bed at all, because if he isn't, then senri will at least try to make sure he's covered up in blankets and cozy before he goes]

[senri looks a little sheepish as he comes back, his smile a little nervous]
... well, it's the least that I could do. They mean 'apology' in the language of flowers... but I thought that I ought to say the words out loud too.
I'm sorry - for being so rash yesterday. Maybe Bambi learned something about containing her temper, but I haven't made it to quite the same lesson.

[This has been a long, hard day for pretty much everyone. Ambition is not in particularly high spirits when Senri enters the beauty salon - she's rearranging some of the bottles of nail polish on the shelf along the far wall.
Senri...l...look!
[she's getting a facial at the hotel spa. join her, senri.]
