[policedefective]

Hmm...I suppose it does.

[Maybe if it been like that back then.]

Thank you for the food.

[le_mat]

[He nods, sitting down with his own and repeating the thanks before starting to eat]

It's bland, but I think that's all my stomach will handle right now.

[Still, there's something nostalgic about miso]

[policedefective]

[He takes a sip before reaching for his chopsticks and eating some of the rice.]

It's good. Not as bland as you might think.

[le_mat]

[He looks a little pleased by that]

Just don't throw it up.

[policedefective]

Worry more about yourself than me.

[He's going to take a tiny bit of rice and flick it at him. Rude.]

[le_mat]

[He snorts at the rice, flicking it out of his hair before pointing his own chopsticks at him in his own blantant show of rudeness]

Watch it or this is the last miso you get out of me.

[policedefective]

You wouldn't dare. You have too much of a bleeding heart.

[le_mat]

[He gets his own bite of rice, letting his chopsticks linger just past his teeth for a moment longer than necessary]

Sure you want to risk it?

[policedefective]

[He pauses, looking down on the rice, before his eyes dart to his mess of failed packages.]

...not for now.

[le_mat]

[He smiles around his chopsticks and goes back to eating in earnest. He wouldn't REALLY do it, Akechi had indeed read him well. But it's fun to keep him on his toes]

[policedefective]

[Time to change the subject.]

So now that we're more sober and less...drowsy, I'm curious about your ideas in regards to your Mana coins. Why exactly do you want to be a demon? Persona aside.

[le_mat]

I hope you're not expecting a deep answer. The truth is pretty... mercenary.

I looked though the pamphlets and what people have said on the network. It's the one that has the most useful abilities for me, specificly.

[Its not so different than him showing up with a perfectly tailored persona for whatever task they were currently dealing with]

[policedefective]

You know they eat souls, right?

Is it due to the flying? Or the magic...

[le_mat]

Yeah...

[Its clear he doesn't Like That.]

Honestly I would probably buy that off before the salt, maybe do it all at once if I can save enough.

And it's those, and a few other things. Fighting you has taught me a lot about what weaknesses I can shore up- this is the cheapest way to do it.

[Its one thing with his personas, but Akira seems just as casual about his body as his metaphorical masks- changing them as needed]

[policedefective]

You know...a lack of salt would be terrible for you but...maybe msg might work.

[Is he trying to be nice?]

Or last fight we mutually killed each other. Now I'm actually worried, if that's your plan.

[le_mat]

I like winning.

[smirk]

[policedefective]

So do I. Which is why I'll have to make sure I spare enough coins to request holy magic.

[🙃]

[le_mat]

You know it will just end up an arms race.

[He doesn't seem put off by the idea]

[policedefective]

[He stops eating to grin at him.]

That's half the fun, isn't it?

[The other part is MURDER.]

Or do you mean that literally? I do agree, Satanoka's extra arms are making me consider that as well.

[le_mat]

[He laughs at that]

It's not mutually exclusive. But you having more hands to hold guns is a little terrifying.

[policedefective]

Please. In this world? Why bother having guns, when I can use my fingers for that.

[He does the finger-gun motion with his left hand, a little flame at the end of it briefly appearing before he shakes it off and it dissipates.]

Granted, if you're going to be a demon, fire will be useless. I'll have to work more on my other elements.

[le_mat]

But guns don't increase your hunger, do they? Don't get so caught up in your powers that you overlook a good weapon.

[he DOES love his cool daggers, after all]

[policedefective]

That's a fair assessment. I do have a sword, but nothing is stopping me from having multiple weapons at the same time.

[Imagine multi-armed Goro Akechi with swords and guns.]

[le_mat]

[He does... and blushes a bit]

It's... an option.

[policedefective]

[...? Um...]

Is the soup too hot? It seems fine to me.
