[ ... He stops for some time, figuring out how to say what he wants to say without sounding too defensive or without sounding too embarrassing. He's not sure how to say it, so he just says what he's thinking. ]
I thought that I would be able to control my urges, so to speak. I've always done my best not to let the Iris moon's effects win over me, but... [ It's not even that Akashi's feeling fragile right now. He feels so guilty that he's done wrong both to Emerald and Mayuzumi, but he does hope to settle this issue without getting into heated arguments like what's happened in the past. The three of them are slowly getting better at solving problems together! ] Tonight was different.
[ It was just too much. Even Akashi, who is usually so controlled, lost. He looks at Mayuzumi and Emerald now, even with uncertainty in his eyes. It doesn't feel sincere if he can't even look at them, so... ]
[ Emerald's watching Mayuzumi as she holds onto Akashi's hand, waiting to see what his reaction is. It's somewhere in the ballpark of hers, probably minus the urge to go punch Midorima in his stupid green face. She holds Akashi's hand a little tighter, careful not to do it too hard though.
After Akashi's apology, she ends up grumbling quietly (mostly out of respect for Akashi because she's still got her chin on his shoulder, very close to his ear. ]
What are you apologizing for? You have a whole moon that drives you crazy. Why is your friend getting off to you getting off? He's not Iris, he's a pervert.
[ Is this the point at which Emerald decides that unless it comes to herself or Mayuzumi (and sometimes Mercury), Akashi can do no wrong? Yes, yes it is. ]
Chihiro, if you see that creep, punish him.
[ She'd do it herself, but she's definitely sure that she'll end up breaking his nose. Especially if Akashi doesn't have self-control enough to fight the moon, Emerald's better off staying away from anyone she actually has a reason to want to punch. ]
[ Mayuzumi can't really reject Akashi's apology, regardless of the mixed feelings he's not fully expressing. He's certainly feeling jealous and unsettled right now, but those emotions aren't enough to truly drive a wedge between them when Akashi's so contrite about what happened, and he interlaces his and Akashi's fingers to make that clear without saying it outright. If anything, this incident makes Mayuzumi want to latch on to Akashi that much more stubbornly and reassert the bond between them to wipe away the memory of Midorima's intrusion.
Emerald's viewpoint kind of mirrors his own, too, if with more hostility; Mayuzumi gets that it was probably unavoidable for Akashi when he's under the influence of Iris, but...really, what about Midorima?
The guy at least held back from actually taking advantage of Akashi, but...they still jerked off together!
...Which brings to mind the image of Midorima doing something like that, and Mayuzumi really doesn't want to dwell on that right now and the weird feelings associated with that, thanks. ]
Well...these moonblessings can really mess with your mind, even with someone like you. Especially someone like you when you're Iris.
[ He gives Akashi's hand a little squeeze like Emerald does, but the corners of his mouth still turn down. ]
I'll accept your apology, but it also isn't enough, you know. I mean, you did that in front of that guy, right?
So you gotta do that in front of us, too. [ Just like they'd discussed; if one of them does something with someone else, that interloper's taint has to be overwritten and erased.
Yes, even in a situation like this where Akashi and Midorima didn't technically touch each other. ]
[ Excuse me, Mayuzumi, what? Akashi may be at fault here and the guilt is eating him alive, but the look of disbelief he gives Mayuzumi is way out there his eyelashes bat a couple of times as he blinks, more than just a little confused. Sure, they had an agreement, but... it's not like anything happened between him and Midorima.
Not to mention, what Mayuzumi is demanding feels a little... too much, isn't it? It's embarrassing.
Uncertain as he may be, he searches for an answer in Emerald's eyes. He doesn't want either of them to argue with each other, nor does he want to start an argument now. He's just... shaken as it is, and what Mayuzumi demands isn't something he's even willing to do given his state of mind right now. ]
[ Emerald makes a little choking sound in her throat when Mayuzumi says that, caught completely off guard by it. She certainly didn't think of this as something that would turn her on, but then she remembers her and Mayuzumi's conversation about.. how she definitely was into making him jealous just so he would get possessive, and he definitely was more into it than she expected him to be.
...Somehow actually seeing it in action, even if it isn't directed at her, is setting her nerves alight in a positive way. The expression that Akashi sees when he looks to Emerald starts off as surprised, then melts into something of a playful, predatory expression.
As much as she tries to be better, even without the Sanguis moon high in the sky beside Cordis and Iris, she is a predator. It's way too easy to slip into siding with Mayuzumi's possessive declaration, especially when she's feeling her own similar feelings. The fact that Akashi is embarrassed makes it a little more delicious. Emerald moves her mouth to Akashi's ear, pressing her lips against his lobe before whispering. ]
Isn't that what you agreed to? If any of us moonlace with other people, the other two get to overwrite it. If you can't get it up for the both of us, what were you thinking about with him?
[ She gently nibbles on his ear lobe, not enough for it to be a bite, and she makes sure to stay clear off his neck, since she does still have her snake fangs. ]
