[Hey, if he's gonna be that masochistic, who is Kyo to deny him his... whatever you call that.]
[Loves... hah.... yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah that's gonna take a long time for Kyo to believe Akito doesn't feel anything but absolute contempt for him, but lifting the curse and not locking him in a room forever goes a long way.]
[And the idea of that, his kid wearing his bracelet... that's super cute. And he really DOES smile now.]
[.... But then he's just...]
[Stunned.]
[Akito doesn't hate him???]
[God's not a monster...]
[Cursed though. He definitely believes that.]
[And that Akito's mother must be kind of monstrous-ish.]
[Like his birth-father.]
[Maybe they should get married.]
[EUGH or not. He'll throw up thinking like that.]
[He'd call this all some crazy dream, but it's genuinely too crazy for him to dream... he just dreams about fish. And martial arts. And nightmares.]
[Love...]
[He guesses she must really love Shigure, and more than just vice versa.]
[Did Akito always want to be a mother? Maybe finally getting... her??? wish mellowed her out.]
[A lot.]
Trapped. Trapped and not allowed to love as freely as desired. [And lonely, which led to bitterness, which led to guilt and shame, which led to suicide which led to...]
[His voice cracks and squeaks.] Are you sure? It's not that I doubt you but...
[Her -- that'll take some getting used to -- mother must have reallllllly been a piece of work, not wanting Akito to love anyone, not just Shigure.] Akito's not a monster. Even now... what I mean is...
[Arm over his eyes, he's not crying, damn it!!] She said if I beat Yuki, I could earn my freedom!! And that she'd still come visit me, even if no one else did. She only leaves me out, because that's how it's supposed to be!! The curse. It's not her fault at all. [Growls and punches a wall.] She's not a monster. [Only him. But it'll be fine. He'll win. With Tohru's help.]
