They were good.

[ You don't need to tell me equals to telling Minato to do it. ]

It is. [ He nods. ] I'm not satisfied yet, though. I feel like eating ice cream, too.

[skews]

[ His mouth twitches, somewhere between annoyance and wry amusement. ]

Is that so? It couldn't be you're just trying to lure me in for longer company by bribing me with sweets, could it?

[ He hates that it might work. ]

[earphoned]

I'm a big boy, I can eat my ice cream by myself.

[ So is Akechi...probably. ]

But you're free to come.

[skews]

[ This is reverse psychology, probably. If Minato makes it sound like he doesn't care if Akechi comes, Akechi will be more likely to come, right? Well, wrong. He isn't going to fall for it.

He'll get his own ice cream, somewhere else, on his way home. ]

A hard pass. I have a busy day ahead of me. I can't squander my time away eating sweets, like some people.

I'd like to meet some people some time. They sound cool.

[ Akechi what are you trying to achieve here. ]

If you're that busy, I'm not going to stop you.

[skews]

[ ...Nothing. Absolutely nothing. ]

No? Very well, then. Enjoy your ice cream. They will only disappoint you after the pancakes.

[ He only speaks the truth. Without so much as a goodbye, he turns to go. ]

[ minato is about to cause some ♪ mass destruction because shuichi really didn't expect that question. however, he thinks he knows where this might go. he's a terrible liar so he doesn't want to insult minato by being dishonest on this one (especially when it's just a known fact). ]

Yeah, it is, but I don't remember anything from my last visit here.

[ he then pauses, deciding whether or not he should add this, but then he figures that he should. ]

... it wasn't even the same me as last time.
