GODLY AUDIENCES: SENRI

[divus]

Comments

WEEK 4, MONDAY

[divus]

[So yeah, Senri's going to have to knock on the door because at this rate Tamaki's just used to this. He hears the knock and he figures there's only one person who would do that, so he's up on his feet and opening the door.]

The piano's right there, you know. [It's a teasing tone because rude, and his eyes are shut in a pleasant little manner.] Welcome back.

[usogi]

It's more polite to knock first instead of just opening your room as I please?

[HE'S A GOOD BOY - is what i say but he's also totally ambushing Tamaki while he's still crossdressing? he laces his fingers behind his back and hums a little note. he'd be angelic if he wasn't.

senri.]

Tama-chin, remember how we joked about how Cheri would love to dress me up one day?

1/3

[divus]

True. I may be entertaining other guests, after all. [Absolutely not, but he allows Senri to remind him of that factoid and hums in agreement. His eyes are still closed for some reason.]

I do seem to recall such a thing, yes. [His eyes flutter open.] But what does that--

2/3

[divus]

[AHHHH?????? Tamaki stares at Senri for a moment, eyes wide and jaw dropping a touch as he tries to take in what, exactly he's seeing. Why is Senri crossdressing? Well, actually, no, he knows exactly why and so he's just going to keep staring like a fucking fool.]

[divus]

[NO!!!!!!! His face grows warm the longer he stares and he's not sure if he should keep looking or look away or tell Senri to cover up or what the hell. This isn't a big deal, he's crossdressed before for various themes and schemes, but Senri's...passable as a girl in the same way Haruhi's passable as a boy.

And his small, chaotic bi brain just sort of implodes on itself.]

...ah?

[Help.]

[usogi]

[oh my god.

senri is absolutely internally scoring this as a total victory because it's nice to be able to fluster prince charming for once? it feels great. especially since he can't like - outright flirt with tamaki anymore because it gets too close to the line that they've drawn -

but this?

absolutely delightful.]

'Ah?'

Is that all...?

[he pouts]

I thought Tama-chin of all people would be willing to say I'm cute.... Instead you'll talk about entertaining other guests in your bedroom right to my face? How mean...

[nito senri is a terrific actor and should be stopped]

[divus]

Nonono! [SENRI YOU ABSOLUTE ASSHOLE.] No one else even knows how to get in except for Ray-kun and I don't think he likes me very much even though we had udon together!

[WOE! DESPAIR!! There's a moment where he just looks Senri over again, examining him from head to toe.] Sen-chan looks adorable...very sweet and cute. Did Sincerity pick everything for you?

[Is Tamaki going to have to kill his mama duck?]

[usogi]

[senri is an absolute asshole - because his expression does manage to lighten up a little bit at tamaki's words. shyly, even though he's not feeling shy at all.]

.... really....? Not even Mizuki-san....?

[oh this bitch

but his expression warms into something pleased and soft - if slightly embarrassed. he picks up the fabric of his skirt as if to curtsy, and does a little turn as if examining his outfit from all angles, then glancing up at Tamaki with a smile]

Yup, Cheri helped me! He really has an eye for this kind of thing - I hope I manage to fit his vision.

[he knows he does he just wants tamaki to say it :/ ]

[divus]

[THIS!! BITCH!! Tamaki stays in the doorway and watches Senri twirl a bit, tilting his head slightly.]

No. Mizuki-san's never asked, so we meet out in the parlor. [There's a moment where he's debating before a hand reaches out to stop Senri in his tracks, rest on his mid-back since the waist is inappropriate for the current situation. On the other hand, Senri has his attention and that's bad taste.]

Picture perfect...a heart so sincere can only reflect such an image. [No he's just. Going to try being a useless asshole right back? His fingers are careful to not actually touch Senri very much, but the hold is strong all the same.] The color brings out your eyes, Sen-chan.

[He's going to kill Sincerity.] But why are you here? Couldn't stay away?

[usogi]

[he has an internal petty moment regarding mizuki that is best summed up as ha.

.... and then he moves on!

especially as he pauses when tamaki touches him, and he seems to hum thoughtfully as he reaches a hand out to rest on Tamaki's shoulder. not his neck, because that would be more intimate than would be correct for their situation?

it's fine]

Well, we talked about it before - so I thought it'd be rude if I didn't show you the results.

[sure. he hums as he faces Tamaki, shameless as anything]

And maybe I thought it would be fun to tease you a little too.

[okay there's Senri,,]

[divus]

[That's fine, because two dumb useless morons can play that game. Flustered though he may be, Tamaki is a competitive sort of person and as Senri says it's solely to tease him, he lets his hand slide a little lower toward the small of Senri's back, eyes narrowed just slightly.]

How terrible of you. [And yet here they are.] You're almost as beautiful as I am. Sincerity did a wonderful job with you. [AND YET!!!] Have you ever considered there's more than one game at stake here?

[A murdergame, and also gay chicken.]

[usogi]

[ . . . oh.

the hand sliding down the small of his back makes senri pause, his fingers curling more into Tamaki's shoulder - and he needs to take a second to remember what he was saying.

no wait tamaki asked him a question.]

.... hm? What do you mean?

And I'm pretty sure you're the mean one here....

[as if senri didn't pick a fight again what was the rule about challenges]

[divus]

[Good. He allows it, his free hand coming up just a bit to tilt Senri's chin up with his finger so he can look him in the eye.]

You didn't forget the rules already did you, Sen-chan~? [Bitch.] Participants are not allowed to back down from a challenge. So...consider your actions carefully.

[Just saying.]

[usogi]

[skdndkdjdjd

Senri lets Tamaki lift his chin up even though his expression grows withering.]

Are gods required to follow the same rules? You're making me start to feel like this is a little uneven, Tama-chin. You'd take mercy on your Sen-chan, wouldn't you?

[BACKING OUT ALREADY!!! STUPID BITCH]

[divus]

Absolutely not.

[Lmao Senri you started this. He's also not letting go though so uh. Hm.] Besides, it's very cute when you're flustered.

[usogi]

[god dammit

Senri can feel the flush crawling up his neck - the pink on his face apparently isn't just from the makeup anymore

still he finds room to complain?]

Saaaaadist.

[SENRI CAME HERE TO BE MEAN??]

[divus]

As if you aren't? [But this isn't princely behavior so he holds on for a few more moments before he lets go all together, hand brushing one of Senri's before turning to head back into his room.]

You are very cute this way. Have you shown other people yet?

[You know. Like your boyfriend.]

[usogi]

Mm-hmmmmm.

[he hums the note because it's safer - and honestly even though he was suffering under Tamaki's attention, he also kind of liked the affection from it. but he'll deal! he follows after anyway, tilting his head]

Bakaomi wouldn't tell me I'm cute. It was fun embarrassing Sasuke though....

[MENACE

why does tamaki accept this menace]

[divus]

[Back into his room they go. Antoinette, for once, is passed out on the floor and snoring softly. Tamaki was apparently doing something at his desk before Senri knocked, but he sits on the chaise instead.]

The former doesn't surprise me, but what have you done to Uchiha-kun?

[usogi]

I just played with him a little.

[and senri just beams as he follows, though he doesn't sit with tamaki. it's way too possible that they might cuddle and then he'll die]

I think he has a weakness for cute girls?

[divus]

I'm afraid to ask what your definition of playing is. The last thing we need is another rogue ninja...

[He's sitting on the chaise and he's facing Senri, leaning forward and letting his elbows rest on his knees as he eyes Senri again.] Though exploiting another man's weakness is the art of war.

[usogi]

You make me sound so ev—

[speak of the devil and he will appear - senri's words are interrupted when he hisses all of a sudden, sharply from a surprise pain. he stumbles, losing his footing from both surprise and injury as red starts to stain the back of his perfectly cute pink sweater

:'( rip ]

[divus]

Senri? [His hands are up and immediately catch him by the elbows as he looks and spots the blood soaking through the sweater.] What--Uchiha!

[Oh look. Now he's mad. But he's also on his feet suddenly and steering Senri by the shoulders to turn him.] Does it still hurt? Can you walk? How bad is the pain?

[Fretfretfret. Uchiha!!!]

[usogi]

Ow - I'm okay.

[though he's wincing as he says it. it's a cut but it doesn't feel especially deep so he just takes another breath as he breathes out, trying to keep himself calm

he's a little unsteady and might be leaning against Tamaki's touch for support and stability but.]

What's he doing....!

[divus]

Being foolish. [And speaking of fools, Tamaki's officially gone into dad mode and moves without a second thought, sweeping Senri up into his arms to carry him to his bathroom solely to bandage the cut. Bye.]
