"You can think of it as an offering. Come to my room later and I'll remove the one that Enoshima placed on you too."

Izuru had his own methods of doing such a thing, and despite the neutral disposition that he held around most people... He might have held his own reasoning for wanting to slap a collar around Servant as well.

"You will come to my room right?" There was an unvoiced command even as his voice was monotone in quality.

[hxpefulmuses]

The subtlest of pressure was still behind that sleek dark-colored shoe as Kamukura now set his intense crimson gaze upon Servant who was held back to the floor.

He had succeeded in stopping the worst of the despair in its tracks at least.

"I already told you before." Kamukura's features darkened slightly. He wasn't totally unaffected by the likes of Enoshima's despair either, and that was only proved even more as he tightened his grip on the chain between his fingers and pulled in an attempt to force Servant to sit up.

"I wanted your company. It is that simple."

[despairfound]

The way he glanced up at Izuru with such adoration, you'd think a literal god had come down from heaven to converse with a mere mortal. Yep. The switch had flipped.

"Please step on me again-!" No filter, just outright begging as the chain tightened the more Izuru pulled. The Servant did sit upright finally. "To be chosen by someone so full of talent like yourself-" that wasn't the only reason Komaeda liked Izuru.

"Then I'll give you my company, gladly, if that's what you want!" His hands moved to the chain as well and his eyes watered from the force. A cough even erupted forth after the momentary choke from briefly losing some air.

"What would you like to talk about?" No doubt he couldn't reach Izuru's level of topics. It was just the option for it. "Or shall we play a game, or just sit here. Or read?"

@despairfound Asked:

025, an empty balcony while a party goes on inside.

Hajime was wearing his best tuxedo as he leaned over the railing of the balcony. He was holding a drink in hand after he had pulled away from the party.

He just needed a breather for a few minutes and to not be passed around like the newest novelty due to his newly acquired talents as one 'Izuru'.

"At least the night is halfway over." He said as he smiled to himself before he brought the glass up to his lips to sample once more.

[hxpefulmuses]

"You act as if it's so easy to discount others and where they factor in." He supposed it was only natural for someone such as Komaeda who had distanced himself of his own accord due to his disastrous luck cycle.

The pair of them walked for a while in silence upon leaving the estate where the party was being held to begin with.

"I'm surprised that they got Togami-san to agree to that." Hajime said after awhile before he moved to slide his arm around the fluffy-haired luckster.

"I did, now did you want to go somewhere or not? I know things are still being restored, but that least have a park nearby that we can go to."

[despairfound]

"You say that but I'm sure you remember the way I behaved in the simulation. So don't completely believe in that idea or anything." Of course he could factor it in. Truth was he just didn't want to all the time.

"Togami must have been bribed by someone. I mean, I agree with Naegi's assumption on his ass being so tight. He practically squeaks when he walks!" Komaeda gave a chuckle at his own words and only stopped when he felt Hajime's arm move to slide around him.

"I think the park would be great." Unless some rogue tide swept in and ruined everything they had. Wait....no.... he couldn't think like this anymore. "You're very smooth, by the way." The way the arm had moved in as though it was such a natural thing.

"Can we stop by my cottage first though? I have to get something before we can go."

"You will come to my room right?" There was an unvoiced command even as his voice was monotone in quality.

[despairfound]

The Servant had been about to check Izuru's forehead for any sign of fever when he stopped approaching to have his own little despair breakdown.

Then he found a black shoe against his chest, the chain pulled and his back against the floor. It had been just that fast. Servant looked up at him with large, ghostly green eyes and blinked a few times.

It seemed the quick movements and having himself against the floor had really stopped the intrusive thoughts from Junko's mind altering hypnotism.

Somewhat.

"Th-that's what everyone else does here so I thought maybe you'd want to as well." The look on Izuru's face was as unreadable as ever. "Then what...?"

"I'm surprised that Tanaka shared with you. I figured some animal would have joined in before you got a bite." The fox had to be in awe, though, the dark-haired male had a way with animals that Ko hadn't witnessed in ages. "His family must be descended from some powerful bloodline." Maybe they'd had their own inugami.

The feeling of Izuru's foot on his leg made his eyes widen briefly. It wasn't like the kami to do such a thing. So of course Ko accepted such a romantic gesture.

"Someone ran screaming from you and you were just walking?" Komaeda laughed at the mental visual he got of the brooding male just walking and a full-grown yakuza man screaming and tripping over himself.

"Tissues? Cat Café? Where on earth did you go to get such an unusual combination?" Ko placed a hand on Hajime's thigh just so the brunet didn't get too upset with a slight lack of attention. "I never thought I'd hear those words together."

[hxpefulmuses]

"I was honestly a little surprised that Tanaka-san was willing to share as well..." Hajime said with a small laugh. He had been caught off guard with how the usual loner had approached him with his own lunch. Throughout all of this he had still seemed to have his own idiosyncrasies that were so usual for the animal lover.

"Yes, that is what happened." Izuru had merely been on the way to the Togami estate when he had a man practically tripping over himself trying to get away from him.

All through his explanation to the fox the wolf simply kept up his simple gesture of affection.

Hajime was enjoying his side bowl of rice and chewing thoughtfully, but he dropped his chopsticks upon Ko rubbing his thigh. A hint of flush was very apparent on his features.

"A booth near the stores downtown were holding a drawing. I only intended to buy a packet of the tissues, but I was instructed to turn a crank and won as a gold ball came tumbling out." Izuru explained and then pulled out the packet of tissues he had stopped for at the booth in the first place-- a rather adorable cartoon fox was curled up on the packet.

[despairfound]

Ko's eyes moved to glance to the side as Hajime dropped his chopsticks. The fox had managed to catch both of them somehow and carefully placed them back onto the table.

Maybe he shouldn't have done that while Hajime was eating. But then again, he didn't know the things that had been weighing on the brunet's heart along with everything else. The whole considering proposal was just one of many. "S-sorry. I won't do that again!" Apologizing was the least he could do.

Listening to Izuru's story about the tissues and winning the raffle was definitely amazing and not out of the course of possibility. Izuru was a god, after all. The fox on the packet fully visible made the kitsune grin with delight. "Ah, so you're not wholly turned off on foxes now."

Still, the idea of him picking out something like that had the fox's heart thrumming for sure. "So are you going to go see the cats?"

[despairfound]

"A longing for my company? That doesn't sound like you at all. Are you sick?" Didn't his presence usually disgust the Ultimate Despair? It disgusted everyone else.

He slipped into the role of Ultimate Host so easily by just shrugging off his suit jacket. Dusty green orbs made note of the motion, almost calculating. The movement of muscle under white shirt.

What he had said next definitely proved his former thoughts wrong. "Favor my presence? You're sure about that?" The look on Izuru's face did indeed say otherwise. It as still intense, yes, but a little less so.

Servant rubbed the back of his neck with his (still intact) left hand and looked anywhere but at those crimson hues. He then worried at his bottom lip in thought. Junko's mind altering programme had worked on him in a way in which he craved despair where once he had craved hope.

His hands moved to holding himself, hands on his arms and a faraway look crept into his gaze. "Surely you called me here to degrade me."

"Well, I can't be too sure. But I don't think they'd question anything if you wanted to leave. It's your decision."

Komaeda watched as Hajime took off his jacket and strode back inside the building through the party and out the front door. Of course, Ko followed after the brunet shortly after so as to not draw too much attention.

Once outside, he chuckled at Hajime. "Well. You sure made that decision quick!"
