"How dare you fucking talk to me after all this time." It comes out as a snarl, and he stares Nate straight in the eyes.

Nate meets Mello's eyes; he laughs, but the laugh's harsh.

"If you'd prefer that I continue my solitude, I'd be more than happy to oblige."

[jusadmello]

"Why now? You arrogant piece of--"

he stops himself, doesn't want to ruin this, whatever it is.

[cra_n_ky]

"Why don't you wanna say it? Go ahead. 'Arrogant piece of shit.' It isn't like you were hiding your intent when you cut yourself off like that." All the while, he maintains a casually pleased expression, body language relaxed - even if the outside doesn't match the inside.

Hearing the words makes all the anger flow from Mello's body, until he's so exhausted.

"You're so fucking--"

he stops, not to censor himself, but because he doesn't know what to say.

[cra_n_ky]

"Waaah, waaah, I'm ignoring you and you want attention." He rolls his eyes.

[jusadmello]

Mello clenches his jaw.

"I'm not going to punch you this time."

[cra_n_ky]

"Oh, so you're just going to stand there and act vaguely threatening?"

[jusadmello]

"That's the plan.

Is it working?"

[cra_n_ky]

Nate pretends to consider it for a moment, leaning back and regarding Mello with a lightly curious smirk on his lips. He shakes his head. "Unfortunately."
