[ they're past that. he knows Saejima would never kill him. that's partially why he took the gamble on the roof, holding out and stalling, knowing damn well his bro would follow his lead.

and if he leans in to his touch a bit, well. whatever. ]

Toldja.

[throughbamboo]

[if his thumb rubs against his jaw at that, also whatever]

It's good proof.

[doggonemad]

Thought so.

[throughbamboo]

Mmn . . . dreams never got this far.

[doggonemad]

Yeah . . . ?

[throughbamboo]

The ones like this, yeah. Always woke up before this.

["this" is broad, but the way his thumb moves again is pretty telling]

[doggonemad]

Tch. At least ya got dreams like this.

[throughbamboo]

They were just as bas as the other ones. Just in a different way.

[. . .

He lifts his arm a bit]

C'mere.

[doggonemad]

[ hesitates for a moment, considering.

and then, fuck it, he scoots over, closer to him. ]

[throughbamboo]

[he draws his hand away as he moves, holding his arm up until Majima settles. Once he does, he slowly puts his arm around him]

[doggonemad]

[ he's not super tense since he's had plenty of notice and came closer of his own volition.

he is pretty still, though. ]

[throughbamboo]

[that's okay, it isn't like Saejima is all that relaxed either. But he does try to relax a little more]

[doggonemad]

. . . been awhile.

[throughbamboo]

. . . yeah. Real long time.

[doggonemad]

Shouldn't've been as long. That one's on me.

[throughbamboo]

Don't see how. Just how it's gone, bro.

[doggonemad]

Tch. Ya would.

[throughbamboo]

Why would it be?

[doggonemad]

'Cause . . . yanno.

[throughbamboo]

I don't, 'swhy I'm askin'.

[doggonemad]

'Cause I was all distant an' shit. Fuck, why'd ya make me say it, it sounds so goddamn lame.

[throughbamboo]

It don't sound lame.

I figured ya were busy . . . an' this kinda shit don't just go back to the way it was overnight.

[doggonemad]

. . .

Yeah, it feels really fuckin' weird. Not bad, just like . . . what the fuck.

[throughbamboo]

[a bit of a huff]

That's a way of puttin' it. But yeah, it's real fuckin' weird.

[doggonemad]

Almost makes me feel like I'm twenty again.
