You could remove it.

[ did mukuro

give her one in the first place ten years ago?

hm. ]

[contrattato]

[Oh, reading her mind. Well, Chrome is kind of used to Mukuro-sama being all up in her brain.]

Would it leave a weird indentation? Like when they cave in?

I could, but.

It feels wrong.

[caligisti]

[ The telepathy, as it were, is not unusual at all. Mukuro scarcely noticed, in fact (she may as well have been speaking aloud, for all the difference it made).

After a decade of living in Chrome's body, suffice it to say he's become rather inured her varying physical woes, but her needless suffering is such a perplexing matter, isn't it? ]

Does it now? I shouldn't think you have need of that part.

[ ( u n s u r e ) ]

[contrattato]

Good point.

Ah, well. There might be complications, hormonally. I might be able to compensate, I'm not. Really sure. Can we not talk about this, ah. It isn't all that bad, though.

I'm fine, is what I mean to say.

[caligisti]

[ chrome, why are you so cute. ]

I see. And am I being adequately helpful?

[contrattato]

You're probably out harassing Hibari.

Ah. Yes? I'm all right. I don't need anything.

[caligisti]

[ if that's so, it's only because hibari is quite likely to be more lively than someone who is ill in multiple ways, chrome. no one enjoys the company of the metaphorical wet blanket, or in your case perhaps the literal one. (aren't you glad that mukuro's own thoughts aren't projecting right now?) ]

Are you certain of that? [ moment of quiet. ] I might be able to spare the time to visit.

[contrattato]

Does Mukuro-sama get along with his younger self? That might be a bit... messy.

Maybe he'll be gone for the day. We could take over the couch. Relax all day. Eat chocolate. Maybe not an entire bag, but.

If you like.

[caligisti]

[ all right. he laughs a little there, in spite of the realization that he is not supposed to be hearing any of these words. ]

Don't mistake me for the Cloud Guardian, Chrome. I've no need to engage in battle with another of my selves.

[ come now. you of all people should realize selfhood is a unique matter to Mukuro; being thusly spaced out in his personage is nothing new, so to speak. why should he be ill at ease with another version thereof? ]

An entire bag would be somewhat gluttonous of me.

Is that a yes?

[contrattato]

Reading my mind a lot today.

Sometimes you're a little territorial. That's why I thought perhaps it would be a problem.

... It is.

[Just ignoring you forever about the chocolate. Get out of her head for a bit, gosh. This is a time for embarrassing thoughts.]

[caligisti]

I've no need to be territorial over myself with myself.

[contrattato]

It's hard to know sometimes.

[Not even bothering to reply aloud since you are all in her head now. Just going to take this opportunity:]

I wish for Lindor truffles. Uh, a bag of the assorted flavors?

[jackpot B)]

ACTION /o/ slash voice

[caligisti]

It's quite convenient.

[ -- and this is mukuro walking about Splendor, heading in the direction of the humble abode which you share with his younger self and (as recently as Mukuro is aware) one of the Cavallone heirs. ]

[contrattato]

Just one before he gets here. That would be all right.

[Happily nibbling at a truffle. Extra Dark Chocolate, so delicious. ♥]

I guess in a way I never thought of how much of life was spent on little things. Walking to buy things. Cleaning up. Preparing food.

[You know. Stuff you make Chikusa take care of.]

voice (still on the way for now)

[caligisti]

Is that so?

[ Mukuro laughs. For Chrome, perhaps that's true enough.

For him, the story is a slightly different one. ]

voice

[contrattato]

...Things feel a little bit empty now.

A lot of time and not much to fill it with, I guess.
