༘⋆｡ stirring the pot starters

a mix of arguments, tension, manipulation, gossiping, fighting, & general emotional messiness!

you  weren't  supposed  to  hear  that.

don't  look  at  me  like  i'm  the  only  one  lying.

want  to  tell  them,  or  should  i?

you  think  i  don't  know  what  you  did?

i've  hit  people  for  less.

oh,  i  thought  you  already  knew.

that's  funny,  you  didn't  say  that  last  night.

say  that  again.  i  dare  you.

you  wanna  talk  about  loyalty?

no  offense,  but  if  you're  the  last  to  know,  that's  on  you.

go  ahead  -  pretend  like  it  wasn't  your  idea!

they  deserve  to  know  the  truth.

you  didn't  hear  this  from  me,  but  -

oh,  so  now  you  care?

don't  flatter  yourself.  you  were  just  convenient.

you  crossed  a  line.

we  had  bets  on  how  long  it  would  last.

it's  not  even  a  secret  anymore.

you  don't  get  to  cry  about  it  now.

touch  me  again  and  see  what  happens.

say  it  again.  louder  this  time.

you  really  thought  nobody  would  find  out?

don't  act  so  innocent.

okay,  but  am  i  the  villain  for  laughing?

tell  me  who  else  knows.  right  now.

this  whole  time,  and  you  didn't  say  a  word?

don't  act  brave  now.

you're  really  gonna  do  this  here?

it  wasn't  supposed  to  get  this  far!

you  can't  rewrite  history.

oh,  i'd  never  say  it  to  their  faces.

it  was  supposed  to  stay  between  us.

we're  all  thinking  it,  i  just  said  it.

you're  not  as  untouchable  as  you  act.

do  you  even  feel  guilty?

they  warned  me  about  you.

go  ahead,  make  it  worse.

if  you  repeat  this,  i'll  deny  everything.

the  next  thing  out  of  your  mouth  better  be  an  apology.

you're  about  three  seconds  away  from  regretting  this.

you  keep  pushing,  and  i'll  push  you  back.

they're  going  to  find  out.

one  more  lie,  and  i  walk.

they're  lying  to  you.

you  need  to  back  off.  now.

you're  defending  them?  after  everything?

don't  try  to  hide  it.

tell  me,  was  i  just  a  placeholder?

you  really  think  sorry  fixes  this?

there's  nothing  left  to  say.

don't  act  like  you're  the  one  hurting.

i  don't  owe  you  any  explanation.

whatever  helps  you  sleep  at  night.

you  should've  seen  this  coming.

i  hope  it  was  worth  it.

i  told  the  truth.  just  not  all  of  it.

you'll  miss  me  before  i  miss  you.

smile.  you're  ruining  the  mood.

i'd  watch  that  tone  if  i  were  you.

it's  not  my  fault  you  believed  me.

you  have  such  a  talent  for  pretending  you're  innocent.

we  both  know  this  is  over.

i  never  said  i  was  a  good  person.

i  thought  you  were  different.

cody doesn’t even feel it happening, never kicked up a fuss about sitting next to kota either, if anything he was actually quite happy about it — although far too tired to sit and make snarky or risky comments. he remained quiet for once, just sitting there staring out the window until the eventual fatigue caught up on him.

within minutes he was fast asleep against kota, basically using him as a pillow for the time being as he curled further into his warmth, a perfect arm wrapping up over cody’s shoulder. it was as if kota knew him perfectly without ever needing to ask, doing all the little things that cody was totally obsessed with in a person

twenty minutes or so pass and he’s still peacefully sleeping — probably the best rest he’s gotten in weeks with how demanding their schedules are. eventually he stirs slightly, arms stretching out a little to fix the awful position he’s got his body twisted into. it takes a minute too long to realise that he’s leaning right into kota before freezing up, wondering what the hell he’s supposed to say. cody likes it, he wants to stay— part of him wants to pretend to stay asleep so that there’s no chance of moving.

a soft breath of air leaves his lips, sighing quietly to himself while his eyes are still trained on the window, suddenly lacking the usual confidence he’s got around kota “ i don’t have to move do i ? ”

My   muse   falls   asleep   on   your   muse’s   shoulder   during   a   long   ride.  //  @inheritantroyalty

the  ride  negotiations  probably  worked  out  in  everyone's  favor.  at  least,  that  thought  crosses  ibushi’s  mind  after  a  few  bumps  or  so.  it's  a  little  daunting,  sitting  next  to  someone  he  has  no  idea  will  react.  rhodes  is  a  enigma  to  him.  he  reminds  him  of  okada,  but  he  has  a  stranger  way  of  going  about  things  compared  to  him.  he  guesses  being  quiet  might  not  have  helped  the  ride,  but  with  tight  schedules,  everyone  is  feeling  exceptionally  drained.  which  is  why  when  he  feels  a  bump  on  his  shoulder  shaking  him  out  of  his  many  thoughts,  he  only  glances  over  and  stills. 

ibushi  only  feels  this  way  when  a  cat  jumps  on  him  and  lays.  that  need  to  keep  still  and  quiet.  afraid  that  any  movement  might  disrupt  the  moment.  cody  is  titled  a  bit  wrong  –  his  neck  might  hurt  when  he  wakes  up  so  with  perfect  excuse  ibushi  takes  the  intuitive  to  go  ahead  and  wrap  a  arm  around  him  as  carefully  as  possible  and  fix  the  positioning  to  one  where  cody  leans  into  him.  his  hand  now  dangles  over  cody’s  own  shoulder  and  he  grazes  a  finger  against  his  bicep  before  turning  away.  its  sprinkling  outside,  japan  treating  them  to  more  humidity,  but  he  tips  the  window  down  a  little  to  let  the  soft  smell  of  wet  rain  settle  them.  it  almost  feels  cozy,  codys  warmth  and  the  cool  contrast  of  the  draft. 

for  a  moment,  ibushi  feels  like  curling  up  like  he's  at  home.  he  stares  at  the  odd  formation  cody  is  now  in,  lanky  and  tall,  but  now  crunched  and  curled  up.  his  hand  out  of  habit  gently  feels  through  his  hair,  a  yawn  leaves  him,  eyes  drooping,  their  drive  still  a  bit  aways  anyways  so  when  ibushi  closes  his  eyes  too  he  feels  at  no  blame.  his  hand  stays  cradling  codys  face.

kevin said ❛ the only one who gets to kill you, is me. ❜ @hitcritical ┊ cw : heavy mentions of blood

cody sits there on a crate by the trainers room with blood dripping down from his head, his bleach blonde hair is practically dyed red as he wipes it away with a towel. there’s constant heavy breaths leaving his mouth as kevins busy pacing back and fourth like a total mad man on a mission. the words shouldn’t make him smile but for some reason they do, that’s not the type of thing other people find romantic in the slightest and yet it makes cody’s face light up immediately.

he smirks a little, exhausted ridden face looking over at kevin as he reaches out to grab onto his shirt, giving a small tug “ come here ” cody wipes the blood again, that match near killed him — he looked a wreck, certainly didn’t enjoy bleeding for anyone else that wasn’t the man standing infront of him “ relax, kevin ”

[inheritantroyalty]

he’s not exactly wrong. whether kenny still likes kota or not, it won’t stop cody from trying to convince kota to like him instead, to prove that he’s so much better than kenny could ever been — he just hasn’t had the chance to see it yet, though time will tell eventually “ no i don’t give up easily, see, you know me pretty well already ” cody’s got a smug look on his face as he watches over kota, eyes lingering on his face. he’d take anything as some form of compliment — it’s an ego boost if anything

to say that he doesn’t care if kenny still likes kota is a bit of an understatement. he cares alright, perhaps too much to the point that this whole thing becomes some sort of twisted little obsession to cody “ i don’t know, kota. but he better start choking up a way to apologise to you some time soon, that’s a little shitty don’t you think? ” if he cared so much he’d have apologised by now, right? he’d have already won kota back over like the good old days “ there’s much better than him, you deserve it ”

he can’t help but smile at that reaction — looks like the words were knocked right out of kota’s throat , but it was cute. even before they met he had his eyes on the man , simply only ever knew him through kenny but it was enough to steal a few glances here and there. decide that it’s exactly who he wanted , only problem was the person between them. “ it’s just kenny ” cody almost sounds annoyed at the fact , he wishes that he discovered kota all by himself with nobody else in the way — it’s a selfish thought “ yeah, he never shuts up about you. i heard your name the day i met kenny ”

cody knows how crazy he sounds right now , like somebody’s psycho boyfriend that doesn’t let them out of his sight. the more kenny gets mentioned the more he wishes they could’ve swapped places , the more weirdly jealous he gets over someone that barely even knows his true self — hell , he doesn’t even know kota yet. he just likes the idea of it “ that depends. does kenny still like you the way he used to? ” he asks, jaw clenched hoping for the right answer. he wants a no, of course not. “ do you like him? ”

[inheritantroyalty]

he hasn’t even realised it yet — how much he’s staring admiring from afar, eyes laser focused on each and every single beautiful feature she’s got, she looks so pretty sitting there, pretty enough to knock half the confidence right out of cody. a man usually able to make conversation with a brick wall now struggles to muster up the courage to go speak to her properly , not just like a friendly co-worker “ what? ” tiffany’s words snap him out of his sweet little daze, cheeks suddenly turning a darker shade of red as if he’d been caught in the act of something so scandalous.

did she really approach him? cody clears his throat , blush still evident on his face as he stands up from the table, brushing the front of his suit off and pulling out a chair for her — just like a gentleman should “ i think it’s good you know that games aren’t exactly my speciality, at least give me a little hint ”

candice said " can we not do this right now ? " @chvmpisms

her words are almost instantly met with a sigh from cody, shutting himself up momentarily as their argument comes to a halt. it’s the same old, fighting over something stupid that probably doesn’t even matter. it always ends one of two ways. either forgetting about it and moving on like nothing ever happened, or someone takes it a little too far and the entire thing blows up into a long day of a silent treatment “ fine ” they’re already late. they always are, cody and candice seem to show up last to get in the car every single morning and she’s right— now definitely isn’t the time to stand there in their hotel room fighting over something completely irrelevant while their friends wait outside “ but i didn’t even start it ”
