well, akutagawa sure didn't see that coming. his responsone to atsushi coming for him with the quickness of an agitated cat's tail is little more than a step back and rashoumon rearing her ugly head, maw poised right above the other boy's head. akutagawa knows atsushi isn't crazy enough to kill him, even in the dead of night and regardless of what sordid orders dazai had issued. all the same, if he happens to be wrong, rashoumon leaving a decapitated weretiger as a goodbye gift to this hideous world is good enough for akutagawa.
akutagawa's expression betrays just how troubling this whole thing is, though. he isn't worried about taking atsushi down in a fight (though he should be), no; he's more concerned with this...whole transformation. he's become so unhinged now. akutagawa almost misses the bright-eyed, radiant little beast he's most familiar with. ]
Is that so? Perhaps he's smartening up. Coming to his senses.
[ he straightens, but doesn't withdraw rashoumon. the tail of akutagawa's coat gives a menacing crackle, blood red and lightning-like. ]
Or perhaps he didn't count on whatever has happened to you leaving you so unhinged.
[ akutagawa narrows his eyes, watching atsushi carefully, searching. no, he swears on his life he doesn't miss atsushi and doesn't desperately wish he was okay. that's not what he came here for. but he would like to make sure no one else in the port mafia runs into this coked-out mutant cat, that's for sure. ]
