» A brow quirked, although he wasn’t at all surprised by the detective’s words. The statement coincided with everything the other had been through, but it was a fallacy nonetheless. Wasn’t solitude, in the end, the reason why he lost?

“Do you really believe that, Akechi?” He fixed his gaze on the detective. There was more he wanted to say but it all seemed too soon to say it. He didn’t want to rub salt on the wound.

“No one gets through life solely by themselves.”

It is definitely a statement he lived by, or at least something he used to believe. He sat at his usual spot in Leblanc, eyes fixed on nothing in particular while in thought. His old views were still there in some ways- they’re not something one can easily get past. 

He gave each hand a kiss to make them feel better. “Have you used aloe, though?”

“I...used some earlier.” Okay, at this point he’s not that surprised anymore. “It didn’t really help that much though.”

When he was close enough, however, he chomped down on Akechi’s cheek, much like how an agitated cat would bite someone but not hard enough to leave an actual wound. He pulled back and looked the other in the eye.

“Put me down or you’ll be in for something a lot worse than that.”

Goro nearly dropped Akira. In fact, he wishes he did after getting his cheek bitten. He let out a noise of surprise, shock, and disgust when it happened- and oh god he really wishes he let Akira fall to the goddamn floor.

But he didn’t do that- and letting him drop now wouldn’t do either of them any good. So he complied and set the other down- not gently but not strictly leaving it all to gravity either.

“I was wondering something.” Goro said, sticking a hand up to his chin as if in a deep thought. “Has keeping your identity as the Phantom Thieves a secret ever been a problem before? Some of you seem very keen on talking about it in public.”
