[Akira perks up when he sees Dee in the lobby and heads on over. Regardless of whether or not he uses his heart's eye ability, he'll be able to feel what Dee is feeling...]
[... ah. He comes to a stop, looking at the man. His brow tenses as his ability activates...
He lets out a breath.]
Hey.
[He isn't completely sure what to make of this guy, yet. He didn't like the vibe he got from him at the trial, but... he'll just quietly listen to his emotions for the moment.]
In spite of the hum and the calm expression on the Judge's face, the silhouette is clawing at a mask (one that has quite a terrifyingly "happy" smile painted onto it), desperately trying to tear the thing from its face. Blood pours down its neck, clearly coming from behind the mask.
With a scream, it's crumbling to its knees.
Another thing to note, is the chains are gone, but there's barbed wire around its wrists now, blood trickling down the metal extensions.

Week 1
Monday
Mornin'.
no subject
Right now, there's a definite lingering sadness, in spite of the smile on his lips. ]
Good morning. How did you sleep?
no subject
I slept.
[Good job, Akira, nothing suspicious about that response.]
You?
[He's going to be trying to instill just a bit of security in Dee...]
no subject
Yeah...? Is that not a concept you're used to?
[ There's a grim smirk, though, before his answer... ]
I didn't.
no subject
How come?
no subject
An answer for an answer.
no subject
My room sucked so I went and slept in someone else's.
[There, happy???]
no subject
Someone cute, I take it...
[ Then, his smile turns a bit strained. ]
... Missing the people from my world.
no subject
[The words that follow have his gaze softening, though..]
How long was it since you last saw them?
no subject
[ It's said... a bit more softly than he intends; there's a swell of sadness, briefly. ]
Ah...
[ Dee lets out a soft hum. ]
Years...
no subject
That's a long time to be separated...
no subject
It meant he was safe from her. There's very little I was able to do at the time, so the least I can do, here and now, is remain strong.
no subject
He isn't looking at Dee when he says:]
Years is a long time to be strong.
no subject
[ It's asked gently... softly... ]
no subject
[He looks to Dee.]
I can't get you back to your friends, but... I can be a new one.
no subject
I'd like that, actually.
[ Very gently, he's reaching out and ruffling Akira's hair. ]
Thanks, Akira. [ ... ] It means more than you probably know.
no subject
There's a bit of pink coming to his cheeks when his hair is ruffled??? This is not what he had in mind...
But, he doesn't move to remove Dee's hand, and instead just gives a small huff.]
Wasting no time in abusing your friend privileges, I see.
no subject
Would you really consider that abuse?
no subject
[... but, the soft laugh has him unable to keep a small smile off his own face...]
no subject
Alas... It would seem I may be too powerful for you, after all.
Week 3
Wednesday
He's leaning against the wall, just outside Akira's room, looking kind of like he just fucking belongs here.
What do? ]
no subject
He lets out a breath.]
Hey.
[He isn't completely sure what to make of this guy, yet. He didn't like the vibe he got from him at the trial, but... he'll just quietly listen to his emotions for the moment.]
no subject
Just came to see if you're up for a chat.
[ It's just a steady hum... sans one thing:
50000 HP, 999 SP
Abilities: Archery, Electricity Manipulation, Wind Manipulation, Barriers, Merging, Empathy
Favorite Foods: Most sweet things
Least Favorite Places: Anywhere away from Kai ]
no subject
He does catch that Empathy, though... Including the least favorite places?]
Why me?
no subject
[ He gives a tiny smirk that doesn't remotely reach his eyes. ]
Why not you?
no subject
He lets out a breath and uses Heart's Eye...]
You expect me to believe you just picked me on a whim?
CW: blood to an excessive degree, horror elements, and self-harm
[ There's something... interesting here.
In spite of the hum and the calm expression on the Judge's face, the silhouette is clawing at a mask (one that has quite a terrifyingly "happy" smile painted onto it), desperately trying to tear the thing from its face. Blood pours down its neck, clearly coming from behind the mask.
With a scream, it's crumbling to its knees.
Another thing to note, is the chains are gone, but there's barbed wire around its wrists now, blood trickling down the metal extensions.
There's sobbing within the screams. ]
Perhaps.
yikes
Is that why?
His expression tenses a bit for a few moments, before he lets out a breath.]
Doubt it. But... yeah, we can talk.
[He gestures for his door.]
Feel free to head on in.
indeed
[ He gives a dim smile and nods. ]
All right.
[ He will do that, then! ]
no subject
Come say hi, Yuuki.
[It gets up and hops off the bed, coming over to sniff at the Judge.]
no subject
Yuuki, is it...
[ He tilts his head, kneeling down, holding a hand out. ]
Hi.
no subject
By the way... I don't think I ever caught your name.
no subject
Hm?
[ Now he's looking over, a small smile on his lips as he tilts his head to the side a bit. ]
Dousuke.
no subject
[He goes over and takes a seat on his bed.]
Was there anything in particular you wanted to talk about?
no subject
... Actually, I... kind of just wanted someone to talk to, period.
