Summary
Yohji decided that he really didn't care whether Schuldig was concussed. Yohji also didn't care if Schuldig was high on painkillers or merely feeling self-destructive. Yohji didn't care that they'd probably both regret it after.
Yohji usually did. He just also always came back. He had to.
Schuldig's information was too good. The sex-- It was always amazing, and regretting it after was part of the appeal.
Both of them were moths; both of them were flame. Both of them were doomed to burn eventually. They might as well burn spectacularly.
Yohji wanted-- needed-- to see how long they could dance together like this.

Summary
Schuldig leaned against Brad's shoulder, just a nudge and then a pulling back. //I won't survive by not rebelling.// The words were dry, factual.
Brad nodded because that was completely true. He took off his glasses and used a handkerchief to polish the lenses. "I despise all of the options."
"The golden ending is still possible." Schuldig's voice was quiet and raspy, and Brad hated the sound of it.
Schuldig had spent rather a lot of time screaming during the last few days.

Summary
Schuldig wished Yohji was in the room with him instead of Farfarello. Schuldig wouldn't take Yohji over Brad, but Brad was busy, and Yohji almost certainly wasn't doing anything interesting or important.
Schuldig also didn't want to see Yohji again. What they'd had was fragile and based only on them using each other. Stepping beyond that would be like stripping naked and streaking all the way across Berlin. It was kind of a lot and probably more work than fun. Enough work to kill all the fun.
Schuldig wasn't sure Yohji cared enough to put in the work, not when he'd always be Schuldig's thing on the side. Schuldig would always choose dumping Yohji naked in a desert over inconveniencing Brad.
Schuldig liked Yohji enough not to want him to be disposable, but realistically, he always would be.
