[Makima is chilling in the lounge with a book as you do. At some point it happens that she and Kira are alone in the room. After a little silence, she finds herself aware of him.]

You know, I might not have mentioned to you that I've lost memories of my own as well. Is there anything bothering you that you would like to talk about with me?

[Normally Kira would think Makima could stand to be less aware of him, and perhaps take his own book to a more private location. But his highfaluting theories about fate aside, the truth is he can think of at least three or four entities here he'd sincerely believe would spring for that cheap bait in a heartbeat. So it wouldn't kill him to be seen... once in a while. He considers it similar to going to the office.]

Ah, you must be wondering about the uncertainty of my marriage status... I admit was a bit flustered, since it is such basic information which belongs in a formal introduction. But the period when I met that woman and her child is a large gap in my memories. I only remember the last few weeks of us living together, and even that is a bit fuzzy. It seems as though something is meant to be hidden from me, about the nature of our companionship - the existence of the marriage seems the likeliest. I would have assumed we were engaged at the least, and I also can't recall her family name.

[He stops then, not actually believing any of this is particularly useful information. But it got him prattling for a while, perhaps this memory loss bothers him more than he cares to think.]

[Kira lets a soft chuckle out about this prying question.]

Sometimes.

[Though it is a necessary lie of omission that this patter is mainly caused when he imagines her learning about his true self, preferably after his hands are already tightly wrapped around her gorgeous neck. He has the vague recollection that he had been holding back from doing this for a good reason. Whatever it is, it's an equally good reason to why he has to subdue reactions like that even while alone with a decently good looking woman like Makima, too.]

What about yours? I'd like to hear what's on your mind through this as well.

[Devils, huh... well, Kira can't consider it too far fetched. There are many parts of history unknown to most, which his father is more aware of than he is. There was no need for it in Kira's peaceful life, and he isn't especially curious about this other than what Makima is bringing to the table from it. He considers her question.]

Hmm... Zero called our missing memories an "interesting solution", and said they may come back in time. I think they are likely to contain important information. That may not always be sentimental.

[He blinks as she brings up this scenario.]

Hmm. The funny thing is, our rent is one of the few things I do remember - the landlord came to bother us and I paid the next several months in advance. Now that I think of it... She had been treating me coldly before that, and afterwards - well, quite the opposite.

[He seems a bit awkward about that. His love life was going well. Apparently.]

She's fairly odd, yes. [Shinobu is also shallow but his guess for her actual reason is one that he's fine to breeze past to this other topic. Since Makima's gone ahead herself, she'll need to ask him about it another time if she wants the details!]

Hmm... it's possible. Do you already have a theory about what values correspond to what roles?

onychomance: (So really is it so strange that)
From: [personal profile] onychomance
Ah, the Kurashiki siblings...

[Kira's expression is cooly placid, but not exactly pleasant. His encounters with them... have been strange. By now he's come to realize Akane is the one girl who caught him in the middle of his panic attack. And Aoi is just a weirdo all around.]

I do not like to trouble myself making enemies with people I am forced to be confined with, but given their connection to the past Nonary game as well as each other, it really is surprising they don't get more flak from the others. Are we somehow the only ones they elucidated to? Let alone read the cards in the cabin. I already had to explain it to that Power brat.

But yes, if Zero has taken an interest in their game, then it stands to reason he could give them incentives to act as well. They would know best what to do in this situation. Then again, if the emphasis on trials is meant to provide a veneer of 'fairness', that could make them the last ones who would be offered an important role if one existed.

Is it so harsh? Accusing a person of subterfuge doesn't typically charm them, whatever reason you assume they have. So no, Yoshikage Kira won't stir shit with them unless there is actual leverage.

[Empathy? He doesn't know her.]

Well... I can at least try to find out if there are any rifts between them. I just want to keep it friendly so my sleep is undisturbed.

[Kira looks Makima over with a furrowed brow at the change of topic back to his family. Hard to think she just got bored of her other topic.]

It's not too difficult. The boy spends all his time in his room, and barely even talks to his mother either. It must be his rebellious phase.

Do you mean to insinuate something?

onychomance: (She never kept the same address)
From: [personal profile] onychomance
Ah. I see your dilemma.

[But yes, that is all he can do. The truth is that he is thinking about his own feelings 100% of the time.]
