[Y'know, if it wasn't for that bitemark on his neck, you could swear there was absolutely nothing wrong here. But that odd calm is probably a bit too suspicious, considering the current state of things.]

This place really shouldn't surprise me anymore, but somehow it keeps managing to...

{He rubs his palm over the bandage covering the bite on his own neck. Vampirism affecting Hayato...that was...He still couldn't wrap his mind around it.

He could only pray it wasn't permenant, because he didn't really want to die accidentally if the Storm Guardian couldn't stop himself sometime. Hayato would get upset if he killed him, even if he did come back.}

[swingswallow]

Ahaha...I didn't think so!

[sky_ringed]

Though... [A pause, like he's not sure he should mention it.] It...has happened before.

[swingswallow]

{He blinks.}

Really? I've been....aimed for?

[sky_ringed]

[He drops his gaze, at that.]

You had even been killed, the first time you were here.

[swingswallow]

I figured I had been probably, if Hayato had been since I got back...

[sky_ringed]

[...He hadn't known about that. But he's not going to question it further now.]

...I'm sorry.

[swingswallow]

It's....not too big a deal? I mean, I don't remember it right?

[sky_ringed]

E-even so, I... That--seems like an easy excuse.

[swingswallow]

One I'll gladly use...Are you okay Tsuna?

[sky_ringed]

I shouldn't have let you go by yourself. [He really does consider it his fault, but the purpose of playing it out at the moment is to have an excuse to pull you closer. You're getting hugged now.]

[swingswallow]

{Despite his instincts screaming 'DON'T DO IT' he wraps his arms around you and holds you close.}

It's okay...

[sky_ringed]

Takeshi... [He hides his face against your shoulder, tightening his grip. After a moment, he looks back up at you with an out of place little smirk. And following that'll be a hard nip to the unmarked side of your neck, though not quite hard enough to draw blood yet.]

I've got you~ [He won't kill you, but you do have something that he needs.]

[swingswallow]

{Well shit.}

You too then? No wonder he was able to stop.

{He's not even going to try to break away because I mean if you're both dead then why shouldn't he be too? That was worse than breaking his after all.}

[sky_ringed]

He didn't. Well... [He tilts his head, mock thoughtful.] For a minute, maybe, but after that it was over and done.

But it's not so bad. I'll just pay you back a little. [He's referring to that whole shadow thing. He'll also place a light kiss to that same spot on your neck, with that.]

[swingswallow]

Ahaha... of course you will.

{He feels awful that he feels better knowing Hayato had changed you. That you had been unable to stop him, that he had been unable to stop himself, but Takeshi had gotten away.}
