[Prologue, Monday: Ann]

[doublecrows]

[Akechi follows wherever Ann leads, after their encounter near the tapestries. he's well-practiced in hiding his true feelings-- in shoving what he really thinks underneath a cheery, witty and charming mask-- which makes hiding the tension lining his shoulders really easy]

[thankfully]

[when they're alone, he's the first to speak]

Is everything okay, Takamaki?

Comments

[doublecrows]

[oh my god this feels so. . . weird?? but okay. he's going along with it]

Is it number three?

[APPARENTLY, HE WILL NOT]

[varas]

Nope! You lose. And now, it's your turn.

[ it's okay, she's super pleased regardless ]

So, tell me three facts about you, but one of them has to be a lie.

[ he knows how to play??? ]

[doublecrows]

Oh. . . and you don't tell me which one was the lie when we're done? I see.

[he nods, satisfied with this! and then comes up with three for himself]

I enjoy cycling and bouldering on my time off. My favorite foods are spicy foods. I enjoy reading German philosophy.

[what a fuckin' nerd]

[the lie is number two, of course]

[varas]

[ But, because Ann's canon point is much earlier, she doesn't really catch on to the obvious lie. It's pancakes all over again. ]

German philosophy? Uh.

It's the third one, right?
