... I'm the one who cursed Harrow. [a beat.] I forgot that she—wait, no, can't talk about that. I didn't realize it would be that severe or that it'd last this long... I didn't get a duration, so I thought it'd be way shorter? Like, a couple of minutes.
[BUT EVIDENTLY
HE WAS MISTAKEN]
I already made it pretty obvious to her that I did it, even she can't tell right now, so I'm just waiting for it to wear off and for her to, I dunno, come and stab me or whatever.
[white ruins everything by having absolutely no braincells, what else is new]
[ . . . . . he blinks a little bit at that in confusion before also sinking down to the floor with white. he'll reach out just to run his fingers through his hair to get his attention again? hello, you little nerd, lift your head please.]
She cursed me for fun a few weeks ago, so I figured I might as well prank her back.
[hence why he picked something that others would obviously pick up on being fake and not something to take seriously............ because he did not realize she would be completely incapable of acknowledging it as an illusion. (oh, the irony.)]
and then he'll bring up a hand - so that he can flick white on the forehead. i'm going to be honest that it's mostly a friendly gesture but it probably stings a little because mineo is just all around terrible at watching his own strength.
he waits a beat and then honestly the kindness effect means that he's gonna just peck white on the forehead where he flicked him anyway]
(though things like this are why he doesn't really believe it when mineo tells him he's liked, because inevitably he does something to remind people that he tends to screw up more than he contributes.)]

[what else is there to talk about
he's pausing]
.... lots of curses flying around this week?
no subject
well, he just winces at that.]
no subject
.... did you do something?
no subject
[well okay then]
no subject
Can we talk about it? Do you need my help with anything?
no subject
... Don't think there's anything that can be done but wait for the consequences...
no subject
... what happened....?
no subject
kind of gives mineo a despairing look]
no subject
... please?
[if he asks nicely does he get to know]
no subject
... You're going to be upset.
no subject
... if I am, we'll talk about it. If I'm really angry, we can punch it out fair and square.
But you're worrying me... so now I think I really gotta ask you to tell me.
no subject
he just kind of sinks to the floor in guilt.]

Sorry. [for the flick. damn kindness week.]
no subject
I know you'll say sorry, so I'll just remind you and honestly just... deal with it with her. I'm staying out of it.
I'm telling Takeru that we don't have to worry about it anymore and then it's none of my business.
no subject
he's just going to block out the forehead kiss from memory and move on.]
... I know. You don't have to tell me.
[he can face up to his mistakes, at least.]
I already told her to come find me once she's no longer seeing anything.
no subject
[and it's why he's not as mad as he could be. yeah, he was pissed that someone was messing with harrow, but knowing that it's a sincere mistake....
he'll just ruffle white's hair a bit]
.... I hope it turns out okay. I'm not super upset at you, but it doesn't really matter what my feelings in the whole thing are, so.
no subject
[he's not optimistic! he usually isn't.
(though things like this are why he doesn't really believe it when mineo tells him he's liked, because inevitably he does something to remind people that he tends to screw up more than he contributes.)]
no subject
... let's go play video games? Or watch a movie or something.
[he'd rather that white not just. sit around and ruminate on what he's done...]
no subject
Sure.
no subject
he's going to let white get up on his own
but then he's going to reach for his hand and clap it together with his own and squeeze it!!]
Don't just start ignoring me now.
[HE DIDN'T LIKE BEING DENIED]
no subject
I—I'm not ignoring you!
no subject
[with a sigh]
I know that you think you messed up, and I think you messed up a little too, but don't just start brushing me off when I reach out to you.
I'll just keep reaching until you accept it.
