[Prologue, Tuesday: Nico]

[doublecrows]

[Akechi doesn't spend too much time mulling over the tapestries, but he is there long enough to read through each one more than once. which is a pretty good time to catch him for conversation, actually!]

['sup Nico, this detective kid is free to be approached at any time, even though he looks kind of distracted staring at his own profile]

Did they have to put it so. . . bluntly?

Comments

[resumed]

[Like. Hard same, Akechi. Nico's definitely not thrilled with his own profile but there's something about Akechi's that's caught his attention. It's why he's subtly shifting over bit by bit until he's standing closer, looking up at the other tapestry with a inquisitive look.]

I don't think they care about hiding our secrets so much as their own. [Which is unfortunate.] But you're right. They could have been a little more subtle about food blogging.

[...look. He knows you can't just charge right into a conversation with a stranger about something as big as monster-summoning. He's not Percy (he's not Will, especially) and he's prone to making people nervous but. He'll try.]
