That's right. We're here being ourselves without fear and--
[It's not much, but it's more than Akechi's had in his entire lifetime. Like Akira, no one else, obviously, but also even with himself, it wasn't much of something he did, more out of necessity. Health reasons he had read up on. That type of excitement was something he never thought he'd get. Probably even deserved.
...

Give him a second. Or two, or three to reboot properly. It takes every part of Akechi's willpower not to, well, explode right now.]
It's...
[Very hard for him to say any words. Or think. And it's barely anything Akira has done yet. He wants so much more, he'd be willing to do unspeakable things, and he both loathes it and entangled by the ecstasy of it all.]
Don't stop.
[His voice is, oddly enough, softer. Like if, for a brief moment, the barriers are finally, utterly, completely crashed down and all that remains is a very vulnerable Goro Akechi that's not even trying to get the upper hand or fight back.
His own hand moves to try and do the same to Akira. To feel the subtleties and differences between what he remembers his own human one was like.
His mind which would have normally stopped him can catch up later.]
Merry Christmas to the penni lol
