[ It's later into the night when Ayabe gets back to the room, unlocking the door and praying that Ken is—
oh
Reality is the opposite and instead, Dazai is here. ]
...I'm going to get ready for bed.
[ He takes his fancy pajamas from the closet to the bathroom so he can shower and change and brush his teeth and leave Jin Ling alone with Dazai to suffer without him. ]
He follows after Ayabe like a shadow or a dog's tail right up until Ayabe goes into the bathroom... and then he's left standing outside of it, clearly not wanting to go in, but also clearly not wanting to be stuck outside with Dazai.
Dammit.
Alright, fine. He turns around with his chin stuck up and finds a place to sit and wait. Without even looking in Dazai's direction.]
[ Dazai is chilling on the bed, looking pretty energized after a nap. His hair is is even more of a wavy mess, but he doesn't seem bothered (maybe because it'll bother Ayabe). He's just here, reading his book when they come in.
Oh what's this? Ayabe brought him some entertainment?
He can already tell neither of them expected or wanted him there, which makes it even more amusing when Ayabe ditches Jin Ling to shower. Closing his book as he leans forward to look at Jin Ling. ]
Are you here for more kisses? [ He gives it a moment to see if Jin Ling looks for Missile before he let's him know... ] I'm sorry to inform you, but Missile isn't here at the moment. You'll have to settle for something else.
[Even when Dazai acknowledges him with smarmy questions, Jin Ling won't look. He does, however, look when Missile is mentioned. Not exactly because he is expecting kisses or anything, but he had the fleeting hope that Missile would save him from being stuck alone with Dazai.
Alas.
The expression on his face sours considerably, and Dazai gets a disdainful glance.] I'm not here for that! Don't you have a book to read? [He crosses his arms and turns his head away so all Dazai gets is a purple bell and a wad of ponytail.]
Dazai will lift up his book to show him what he's reading. It's the Complete Manual of Suicide. ]
I can read my book out loud if you want. It's pretty interesting. [ There's a pause and then he makes an exaggerate Ah! sound, as if he's realizing something. ]
Oh, did you want some alone time with Reito? I didn't know you were like that, Jin Ling.
[ It's so tempting to just take a half hour shower but. He'll just take his time brushing his teeth and everything and y'all can skip over him until it's good to jump back in. ]
[Since there isn't any immediate response, Jin Ling looks back over like an idiot. His face is irritatedly bewildered when he reads the title, not sure what to make of it. Wow, this guy isn't much better than Mo Xuanyu. Why are all his uncles crazy?!]
No! I did not come here for that either! Keep your wrong assumptions to yourself!
[Ughhhh. He makes a face and doesn't budge, arms even more tightly crossed. Well, if anything, he's got two fists, and he's not afraid to punch Dazai's mouth around to the back of Dazai's head.
He looks at the door as if this will make Ayabe appear, laments it doesn't, and then marches to sit down on the bed...........on the opposite end.]
[There's a little flash of anger that would probably snowball out of control if Dazai didn't surprise him with the sudden question. He gives Dazai a very suspicious up and down.]
No. [He sort of says it in a kind of "ew" way.] Why?
... [He's two seconds from correcting Dazai, but seems to realize it'll just give Dazai an opening to annoy him.] We get rid of walking corpses [pointedly] but he isn't a fighter. He'd rather paint, or collect fans.
[ He has acquired some weed and reading everything, he's heading to his room to look for Ayabe. He also has Chuuya with him because if he's going to give in and make a stupid choice for once in his life, he might as well drag his... underling with him. It's probably because Chuuya is the only one he actually trusts there.
He's trained like everyone else who is a cultivator. That's why we're in a sect! So of course he knows how to fight a little, but he doesn't want to fight.
All he can do is shake his head and say he doesn't know.
[ Ayabe's lounging on the bed with a book, sort of frowning at it and is quick to shut it and set it aside as he sits up and watches Dazai and Chuuya enter the room. He's wary... ]
[ I still can't get over "No. [He sort of says it in a kind of "ew" way.]" BE NICE TO SECT LEADER NIE I'M CRYING
anyways, it looks like they're on a different and safer topic now of Nie Huaisang shaming, so it's just a five minute shower and two minute teeth brushing and one minute hair drying before Ayabe comes out. ]
