Ah, Parkour... I can, I just don't like it, ah, so much work...
(however, it is a necessity in both his line of current work and his past one. th beeping makes his head tilt, mostly because he wasn't expecting there to be one, but once he smelled the pot upon return, there's a smile on his lips. ah, akira really is getting some points.
good eye-candy, and look at all this spoiling!!! there's a laugh as he offers an arm.)
I think if we just move me to the chair, it's fine.
(dazai barely eats, so he weighs almost nothing for his size.)
[Akira's grin broadens and he sheds one of two oven mitts, striding over to the bedside and crouching, reaching his arms out.] Not to proud to be bridal-carried by a teenager, are you? That Crab Hot Pot isn't gonna eat itself.
[All right Osamu Matryoshka, prepare to be scooped. Akira is not the strongest twink, but he's startlingly solid for as reedy as he is, so he has absolutely no problem hefting Dazai's 80lbs soaking wet weight. He lifts him carefully and stands, moving him to the chair he'd previously been sitting backward in and just as carefully lowering him into it.]
[And then for the more important part, his still-mitted hand grasps the lid of the donabe and he lifts it away to reveal a pot of molten delicious. He sets the lid aside and drops backward into the opposite chair, presenting Dazai with utensils that he appears to have conjured from thin air (they were probably in his sleeves) and setting his chin in one hand to grin placidly.]
(the fact that there are no issues in picking him up doesn't go unnoticed. he is aware that he is a toothpick, chuuya feeds him as much as he can, by strategically placing snacks wherever dazai is - it's a miracle for him to sit at this table. it mostly happens when dazai feels like being particularly nice, or when chuuya cooks for kotone, too.
a little 'oof' escapes him, because after all, he is still in unbelievable pain, as much as the painkillers allow him to numb it. dazai's eyes google at the food, looking back at the dish, and at akira, back, and forth, and back, and forth--)
... You made this... Really? For me? Simply like this?
[Akira just smiles-- smiles, more than grins, shrugging his shoulders and folding inward just a hair at the table, moving his hand from his chin to his opposite shoulder.]
I like cooking for people, 'n it's your birthday. So, Happy Birthday!
... Ah, you kiddos are definitely going to ruin me a little bit!
(he's soft... look at all these people who like him for some reason he doesn't even understand. the smile on his lips is a both incredulous and a little confused, but he'll dig in, carefully inspecting.)
Mmm, I'd say I'm pretty lucky, too. [He does not elaborate.]
[But he does appreciate Dazai's open enjoyment of his food. One of Akira's many love languages is food and feeding people, and he can't even begin to quantify the joy he derives from other people enjoying what he makes for them.]
Disagree, I think he won in every aspect of this exchange!
(and the food is incredible. he doesn't regret telling akira to come work with him, it might truly be a step towards growing those skills where he has guidance and freedom to experiment with whatever. dazai would never object.)
Ah, you'll be rich in no time, if you continue cooking.
[He doesn't quite preen, so much as wobble happily under the praise. Dazai doesn't seem the type to readily give compliments unless he truly means them, shrewd as he is, so it's a different sort of pride he takes in doing right by him.]
I'm not talking about money. There are other types of rich! Rich in spirit, rich in experience, rich in many things! I've been so rich the numbers didn't make sense to one's eye, and it means absolutely nothing to me, I would happily live in a box!
(as he did. a little shipping container, with almost nothing in it, surrounded by toxic waste. he wasn't happy, but his living conditions never had anything to do with it.)
[He grins, threading his fingers and setting his chin on the backs of his hands.] I prefer my dusty attic to most things, but I could make do with a box. Maybe a box with an umbrella. Like a stray cat.
Ah, we don't only look similar, but we also could live like the same. I tend to attract cats, so if you want to pet some, we can sit elsewhere and wait, too.
(his index finger presses just against akira's spine, to keep him to a better posture, even if he can't say shit, he also is a disgrace about it. the finger stays, though.)
Oh, yes. I'd keep one, but I have almost zero responsibility!
(hopefully akira doesn't have a hand-kink, because dazai has elegant, long, and slender fingers. they tap, tap tap tap, against the other's forearm.)
Nope! It does reduce the amount of touching I tend to get, but it makes me, ah, indispensable. I have never met anyone who had a similar ability whatsoever.
[You know him so fucking well, because yeah, he's admiring those slim fingers and idly skimming two of his own to the bone of his wrist.] You have pretty hands.
(for a moment, he can only blink because this has nothing to do with 'no longer human', and the next moment, he laughs. his spare hand moves on top of the other's, simply for comparison sake.)
Ah, thank you! My fingertips are becoming calloused, I'm learning the violin.

Thank you, kid.

You can't just tell me things you like and expect me to not feed you, it's a chronic condition for me.
