 Nothing upsetting about this CR.

[Kurama is probably entirely capable of getting his arm loose, but he also doesn't want to risk hurting Akira's hand.

However, there is definitely verbal protest at Akira's suggestion, along with a visible hint of pink to his face.]

Aki- Kurusu-kun, no! There's no need to trouble Arisato-san with minor injuries. Besides, I really don't want to trouble him or push my presence onto him if he doesn't approach me himself.

I think he's dating another version of me and I'm well aware how that can feel.

[cellkey]

[That. Actually gets Akira to stop. The "ah" he gives in response is... a little more telling than he'd like it to be?

...]

Then... we could ask the others. See if anyone else has something like that.

[Starting to walk again! He is Dead Set on this and he isn't even Ren]

[Oh.

Well.]

...it's probably an open relationship.

[A-ki-raaaa... Kurama's heart image has its face in its hands while the real one's blush worsens.]

You really don't need to go to all this trouble, Kurusu-kun... I promise I'm not actually hurt that badly.

[cellkey]

It's not trouble, and you wouldn't have gotten hurt if it wasn't for me...

Plus, I'm still doubting your injuries deserve to be downplayed that much.

[So, yes, he does have to do this!!]

[byanyother_name]

It was really my own fault for letting my focus lapse. Please don't take that on yourself.

[He actually seems... genuinely concerned by it? Even his heart image shows its face again to give a fretful, worried look.]

[cellkey]

[What the heck...]

Even if I was only partly responsible... And, even more important than that, you don't deserve to be in pain.

[A h . . .

The heart image gives a choked, broken sort of laugh, and the air it has is one of intense self-loathing.

Don't deserve...?

But he really does.

None of that shows on the real Kurama, though. He just gives a small shake of the head.]

You barely know me, Kurusu-kun, that's quite a quick judgement. Either way... the last thing I want is to see you blaming yourself over me.

[cellkey]

[mmmMMM]

You saved me...

[He's quite firm on this, jaw tensing just a little bit.]

I literally might be dead right now if you hadn't intervened.

[He takes a deep breath, then lets it out, gaze softening a bit.]

Look, I'll feel better knowing you're okay. Please...?

[Critical hit to weakness, x4 damage.

It's pretty clear how all the fight goes out of him at the plea, even without the heart image's defeated sigh.]

...alright. If it will stop you from worrying over me, I'll go.

[cellkey]

[He lets out a breath, and gives Kurama a small, genuine smile.]

Thank you.

[And they're off to get Kurama healed!]
