[ Thankfully, his shirt and pants-- socks and underwear too-- are all regularly changed, but there isn't much variety in anything that he wears, similar shades and style like he just bought 3-4 of the same thing and wears them in rotation. Still better than his jacket that he's had for ages, and continues to cling to like a security blanket. ]

It's fine, it's fine~ Dirt you just sort of- [ He takes the hem of his shirt and gives it a little wave, which would presumably kick the dust off if his shirt weren't all bloody and matted in there. It's not a very old stain; the skin over his stomach is also smeared with dry blood. ]

And for germs, I'm working on a way to get rid of it!

Yeah, a bath! [Yuya snatches the showerhead from it's mount, points it at Kano, and proceeds to turn the dial on full blast.

Realistically soaking him and his clothes would just make the stench worse, but this is their stand-off now.]

[ Kano yelps and leaps out of the room, making a mad dash for the door outside as if he were any normal cat getting hissy at having water turned on him. Yuya can chase him but he'll have to let go of the showerhead. ]

[Yuya chases him until the cord is taught, and when it can't go father he turns back to drop the showerhead in the bathtub and then go back into the bedroom.] Ka~no~!

[ Kano is too busy being deterred by the guards, three of which who block the doorway out into the hall and stare down at him with folded arms, not believing a word of his yelling about how Yuya's trying to drown him, let him out, they've got to, please!!!!! ]

[Yuya puts a finger to his lips, to the guards, as he creeps up slowly a d quietly behind Kano...]

Boo.

[ Kano jumps and whips around, jfc Yuya ]

I swear to god, I'm going to shank you someday. Keep one eye open when you sleep, Yu~ya!!

[Yuya just starts laughing, trying to shush Kano between giggles.] N-not in front of your guards, what will they think!

[Probably that they aren't paid enough for this.]

I think they should reassign some of the guards outside your room tonight~ For your own protection, you see? Who knows what I'll do?

[ And it'll get them off his back for a bit. A win-win situation. ]

I don't know, there's not a lot of space out there with Toki's guards... [And like, they definitely can't swing for that when Yuya's already established himself as willing to slip Kano out of their watch multiple times.]

I dunno, if you move some stuff around, I bet you can fit a guard or two inside the closet, a couple to camp out in the middle of the floor, another in the bathroom to make sure it doesn't flood overnight...

[ Like how his own bathroom is going to flood, presumably, thanks Yuya ]

[It's in the bathtub, unless he clogged that he's fine.]

No, that definitely couldn't work. [His tone is light even as his gaze drifts down to where the bloody spot is (was?)] Your room is more spacious, so of course they'll have to stay here.

[ I doubt it's clogged, seeing as it's never used. ]

Uhh, no way??? My room is occupied— Nightmare needs lots of space, so there's no room for anybody else! It's for their own safety, too!

No room for me, either? [His expression twists wryly, like he wasn't just threatening Kano with a showerhead.] Maybe I have a thick skin against shanking, now.

Nope, no room! Only in specially designated hours of eight at night to six in the morning, sleepover hours~ You'll have to bring your own snacks, though! And something leafy green for Nightmare.

Well, right now it's... [Yuya pack's his phone out of his pocket.] Nine-ten, so I guess I'm already within sleepover hours.

[ Kano holds out his hand. ]

And the entrance fee?

[ Where's his food, Yuya? He hasn't eaten in two or three days, it's hard to keep track of time. ]

[Yuya pauses, fishing through his pockets.

And then offers a half-crushed mint.]

Ohh, I've been running low on mints!

[ Kano accepts the mint and sticks it in his pocket-- which is another reason why Yuya can't just take it and wash it, he's not really sure he should unsew the bag of holding from it or if it can be washed or whether it'll just soak up all the soap and water and making washing impossible. ]

Alright, alright, you pass~ For the rest of you guys-- [ To the guards, as he places both hands on Yuya's back to walk him back into the room ] If you bring food, I might think about inviting you over!!

Bring Seven-Up please! [Yuya calls over his shoulder as he's led back in, like that's really going to happen.]

[ Kano shuts the door behind him and turns to Yuya. ]

I can't believe your drink of choice is Seven-Up. We might have to break up.

[Yuya puts his hands on his hips.] What do you think is better?

The superior drink is obviously apple juice??

[ He hasn't had apple juice in years. He's not really sure what it tastes like. ]

Apple juice is fine but it's not a soda. [These are totally different categories. As if they were talking about categories.]

Apple... cider?

[ Is a soda? But he doesn't like apple cider, or most sodas either. They're fizzy and hurt your throat, why would anybody drink them voluntarily?? ]
