He does indeed hear the remark of his sibling, but chooses to ignore it as he buries his face in the fabric of the furniture. He knows he should move and cease his attempts to destroy the very thing he and his family sit on, but he just couldn’t make his body move at the time.
Hearing the other make his way into the room isn’t even enough to stir him. An inaudible mumble in the cushions was the only actual response that came from the young hero-in-training. God, he could just fall asleep there. However, he knows that his twin wouldn’t allow for such a thing, at least not in the drenched uniform he’s in.
It’s a few moments before Seiji actually pushes himself up into a sitting position, his head leaning back as his tired gaze hits the ceiling.
“It’s just…been a long day.”
Simple, but true. Seiji had been working himself to the bone as of late and it was starting to take it’s toll. He eagerly awaited for the weekend where he could take some time to possibly even sleep in a bit and just not bother with people. A hand rose to remove his hat, resting it in his lap.
“I’ll get changed. Just give me a moment.”
he does not try to fight the PANGS OF SYMPATHY that arise from within him. he of course HAS NO IDEA what the hero school might be putting seiji through, but he’s WILLING TO BET THAT IT IS A LOT. perhaps that’s one reason that he does not see the merit in HEROICS.
` of course. ` he does not press the issue and this is mostly out of TRUST. if seiji says that he’ll get to it then seichi has NO DOUBT THAT HE WILL. besides, it would not do to RUSH HIM SO MUCH.
he sneaks a glance at his timer. about FOUR MORE MINUTES remain until he should check up on the food. he’ll be able to work with that.
` will you be JOINING ME FOR DINNER ? ` regardless of what his answer is seichi is already making ENOUGH FOR TWO anyways. it wouldn’t be polite, after all, if he didn’t at least consider the possibility that his brother MIGHT WANT SOME, TOO. ` i’m not experimenting with anything this time ---- that is to say, i won’t be using you as a TEST SUBJECT for new recipes. `
