[Why is this happening? Mulling it over, he almost suggests that Kano do the once a month not-date thing with Toki instead, but that's exactly what Tsuyukusa had gone to Kano to prevent in the first place. He lets out a frustrated sigh, because either way this isn't a good outcome. He doesn't want to give Kano leeway for future monetary gifts, and he doesn't want to go traipsing around amusement parks with this kid.]
If I go out with you once a month, you won't ask for anything else. You won't tell Toki about me. You won't harass him or even talk to him.
[If Tsuyukusa's going to agree to this, he's getting everything he wants out of it too. He can't stop Toki from initiating conversation with Kano, though.]
[ Tsuyukasa's covering a lot of bases here! That's a lot of stipulations, exactly how it should be when dealing with somebody like Kano, and that makes it easier for him too- knowing exactly what he's allowed and what he isn't- pushing where he isn't explicitly allowed and seeing the reactions that come out of it. ]
Hm, hm~~ Those sound fair to me~ But what of him talking to me? Is texting off limits? Sending somebody as a middle-man if I need to pass along a message? If I ignore him, won't he think I'm mad at him? What if we're grouped together for class or mission?
He can talk to you if he wants. No texting. No middle-men because you will never need to pass along a fucking message.
[He stops there, because yes. Toki will think Kano's mad at him. Then he'll spend hours whining to Tsuyukusa about it. This whole endeavor was a terrible idea. He was supposed to come off as threatening and authoritative.]
Fuck it. Do what you want. I'll deal with you when I need to.
[It's implied he means in a permanent way, or it would be if Tsuyukusa wasn't saying it like an irritated petulant child. He steps into the room and slams the door in Kano's face.]
[ Kano laughs under his breath, because he's only really scared of three people in his life, and Tsuyukasa doesn't come close. He lets the door slam in his face, and then drops his illusion, cups his hands in front of his face so he can call out through the door- it's that childish need to have the last word ]
I'll go ahead and do what I want, as always~ The offer's always open, so just let me know, 'kay~? Bye-bye~!
