[HE DOESN'T!! HE DOESN'T NEED TO KNOW!!!!! He hates the look Akira's giving him and frankly hates the general feeling of vulnerability that asking someone for something leaves him with, no matter how he might try to word it like a demand.]
With whatever's left on that altar, yes.
[:3c blendy........
But also he just realistically doesn't expect to be left in one piece on account of the fact that he's going to be tricky to kill. Sometimes... you are poison-immune and don't have any insides for easy stabbings...... It's fine he knows this, he is not bothered by it. Honestly he's more upset over having to give Dobby a task than he is over the idea that someone might someday break his body into ten million pieces.]
[Well. This still ain’t told him shit about the gnosis technically, but he has been asked to do something which holds grave significance, so… he can’t exactly say no (because he’s Akira).
Not that he trusts himself to not fail at even this. If he can’t protect Miki when her father asked him to watch out for her… what good is he in keeping promises? He hugs the head a bit to himself.]
Okay, I will.
[He does not necessarily expect the same to hold true, but:]
If something happens to me… see if someone will bury Miki and take care of this guy.
[He doesn’t put the onus on the guy with allergies.]
[Yeah he really said "let's talk about the gnosis" and then said "just make sure it doesn't leave my side binch you don't need to know shit outside of that okay bye". HELP.
Akira's really going through it with this fucking head though, damn. He also arches a brow at the addendum to the request, but naturally doesn't ask questions about it. Maybe surprisingly, there isn't much hesitation before he nods.]
That sounds fair.
[But really, it's just because making the matter transactional makes it easier to stomach. Now it feels like a business deal, a give-and-take where he can supply something in return for something else, no feelings or trust involved. It's familiar, and he looks a little less terse accordingly.]
[HE DOESN'T HAVE ANY SOFT EMOTIONS HE JUST HAS THE EMOTION OF MAD AND THE EMOTION OF UNCOMFORTABLE the latter is what he had been feeling but now he can go back to vibing.
Also good question. i hope we both die at the same time that would be so funny. ANYWAY, he's just quiet for a second after that before turning again.]

Consider it a deal.

Also, sometimes you just know your bestie won’t care about a damn head or a skrunkly cat…]
It’s a deal then.
[Why am I always caught up in some kind of terrible deal with your characters everywhere I go.]

Then I'll take my leave.
[In less of a flouncy irritated huff this time.]
