week 3 (tuesday night)-2
[ All things considered, receiving a knock at your door at ass o'clock in the morning in a murdergame probably isn't something that's going to be well received. If Gilbert isn't already awake, then Break is fairly certain that the knock, soft as it is, will probably still startle that nervous idiot awake.
He shifts the towel on his face, then speaks through the door softly. He doesn't want anyone else to know that they're up and awake, since he already knows how suspicious this is going to look. ]
It's me. Just open the door, since I need your help.

truly a hallmark moment...
Did Break just say something about being friends?? Is that what "let's friends" is supposed to mean?? He just stares in uncovered shock for a couple of seconds, like he's trying to piece this through...
Ah. The follow-up sounds much more like Break, at least... But still.]
I— won't? [?! LET'S FRIENDS.
But after a second to recover his composure:] I won't. I promised that too, didn't I?

[ But at least Break is self-aware enough to realize that his best is really, really sad, so he's not going to stay any longer and embarrass himself further. He coughs into his hand awkwardly, but then starts to stand. He won't even acknowledge that this just happened, because it totally didn't... ]
...In any case~. I'll be heading back to my room now. Try and get some sleep, since if you drink two more pots of coffee tomorrow, you'll probably just die from that~.
[ this is the break equivalent of running away from a conversation ]
no subject
—I won't drink two pots! ...I didn't drink two before! [GOD. But after he settles down a little:]
If you have any more trouble, come back over here, all right?
[He doesn't bother saying "you can stay if you need to" more directly, because that crosses a line of embarrassment even for Gilbert The Embarrassing... But the offer is still there, just in case Break is overwhelmed by his grief again and needs someone to distract him.]
no subject
[ Break stops at the door, then turns to face Gilbert again. Granted, it's only to wave his hand in Gilbert's direction, but considering he's not making fun of him for the offer, that's good enough to say that Break is at least taking it seriously. ]
But don't worry. I won't be sleeping any more tonight, so it'll be fine~.
[ This sounds like the opposite, but Break already got his like three hours of sleep, he's good. ]
no subject
All right. I'll probably be up for a while longer...
[Since he wakes up at 5 normally he'll actually probably just stay awake too, GOOD WORK TEAM.]
Good night, Break.
