[Akechi is happy to see his best and only and coolest and most fashionable friend! But that is not going to get in the way of his whining.]

A long day. And I still have a good deal of homework to catch up on.

[Though he can't help but smile a little when he sees what's on TV.]

...That one certainly had a twisted Palace, didn't he?

[Loki makes an expression of distaste at the mention of homework -- maybe Akechi could stand to be a little less of a good student around the manifestation of his rebellion -- although that quickly turns to an amused smirk.]

The effort was worthwhile. There's something... poetically ironic, about breaking the Minister of Communications so thoroughly, he's reduced to a gibbering wreck.

[Good grades are important!! But he's setting down his briefcase and coming over with only the food.]

It's a beautiful thing to rip a silver tongue right out of someone's head. I'm sure I could arrange similarly thematic punishments for the rest of them... though I wouldn't want sweet irony to turn into a cheap gimmick. Onigiri?

[Offers one]

[hitbetray]

Thank you. [Reaches over to take the onigiri, eating it primly.]

You're right about the gimmick. Jests oft become stale when repeated... Though I'm sure you'd benefit from more amusement of any form, stale or not.

[He switches off the news, looking over at Akechi. He might be used to his low moods, but he'll still call out moping when he sees it.]

I can't argue. Things have been ramping up lately. Truthfully, even the Metaverse feels like a chore lately.

[It's almost like it's a lot less fun to go after people you didn't pick yourself.]
