Summary
The way his shoulders shake, the corners of his eyes creased from his smile- that combined with his glamour, he looks so human in that moment that it makes Akechi want to be sick.
"You can't hear it...They're calling out for this. For us. A myriad of voices crying out as one. Begging for retribution at our hands."
Akechi narrows his eyes and scoffs. A seething disgust trembling in his fists. Self-righteous bastards, all of them- Unsure if he means the fae or the people of Japan.
"That sounds like a load of bullshit to me. And what, do you think they're right? That we should just sit here and let the world crumble so you bastards can inherit it?"
The corners of that blissful and untouchable smirk finally turn down, and Akechi suddenly feels he understands what people mean when they call eyes windows. Only Joker's feel clouded over, a thick fog against the glass. The kind a child would press their finger to and draw a smile.
"No, I don't."
