truly the worst, right? complete asshole.
[And he's like ten years older than him and the other mutants! Scott sometimes forgets that himself with the way Peter acts.]
just don't let him hear that ever, in fact, we're keeping this conversation between us. his ego doesn't need to be inflated. but my other teammates go by Storm and Nightcrawler. The last one is still trying to figure out her name.

what, you're gonna wear out your hands on something else before 8?
[the mention of Twinkies gets Akira's curiosity flowing]
what's a twinkie taste like? i've heard of them, but i've never had one.
[since they aren't really a common snack in Japan. he has probably only heard of their existence through all the American television he watches]
cyclops. storm. nightcrawler. quicksilver. you guys sound so cool.
what options does your last teammate have?

it was your idea, dammit!
[well technically bakugo picked the time.]

[So he could describe the flavor to Akira....]
nah man, this is something you have to try for yourself. i can't tell you beforehand. it'd just fully ruin it. we'll find some in this casino.
[Not that Scott super loves Twinkies or anything, but principle of the matter. This is like another American icon, the same way Han Solo is.]
she was considering 'marvel girl,' but not sure she's sold on that. she has both telepathy and telekinesis, so probably something that's connected to those abilities.

[WOW!!]
now you're making it sound like some big secret. [HAH. . .] if you find one i'll trade you a tokyo banana for it.
[they are not the same thing, but hey! one cultural exchange for another, right?]
"marvel girl," huh. [yeah he can see why she isn't sold on it yet] i can't blame her for being picky. code names are serious business.

tokyo banana?? how is that different from a regular banana?
[Although all this talk about Twinkies is making him actually want one... maybe he'll grab a box for his room.]
yeah, doesn't quite have the same ring as the other names. i'd like to throw ideas at her and help out, but. haven't seen her in a while.
[...He really misses his friends now. MOVING ON:]
so all this talk about code names. you and your team must have them, right?

bring your night clothes.
[This has been upgraded to a sleepover.]

because it's a fluffy cake filled with banana cream
[duh, Scott!!]
[. . . the "haven't seen her in a while" comment throws Akira for a brief moment, but. . . he does get it. Scott has been here just a few months longer than Akira, and Akira is already missing the friends that haven't found their way to the resort]
[hashtag just leader things, he thinks]
mmyep. i'm joker, of course. then we have mona, skull, panther, fox, queen, oracle, and noir. those are our main members.
beyond that, there's also violet, sophie and wolf.
[. . .]
[the last text comes on its own, after a brief delay]
and crow.

With a phone charm. That's not a joke, by the way.
[There is so much going on here... It's hard to keep things straight, even when he lived it!]
Don't worry, I promise I won't be eating anyones heart any time soon.
As for spacing out in church, don't worry. I'll just tell you straight, then. I'm the reincarnation of Abel. From the story of Cain and Abel, sons of Adam and Eve. Pretty messed up, right? I got to be the worlds first murder victim in a past life.

[It almost sounds like a Twinkie... except it's filled with banana cream instead of regular cream. Okay, consider him kind of curious. It sounds pretty good.]
you have quite a team.
[Joker, huh? Yeah Akira sure is one-- OKAY NO but huh, those are a wide variety of names. He notes how 'Crow' comes in later, wondering if there's something more there, but.]
do your codenames represent your abilities too?? or is there something else going on there?

how did it die to a phone charm, kazuya?? like that's what i'm confused about.
[.....Oh. 'Bel' from Abel. He gets it now. Yes, those cogs in his brain are finally turning. At least for this part.]
okay i actually remember that story now. so, really? the reincarnation of abel? that does kind of suck. although, isn't it because you're his reincarnation that you're able to absorb the bel demons? feel like that matters more.

no i'm gonna judge your damn pajamas!
[WHY ELSE WOULD HE TELL HIM TO BRING NIGHT CLOTHES?!]
[WHY ELSE WOULD HE TELL HIM TO BRING NIGHT CLOTHES?!]
they're the best team a guy could ask for.
[Scott cannot hear the affection in his words, but they drip from each letter like sugary syrup. Crow is a complicated story. . . but one that Akira isn't yet ready to tell. even if he doesn't feel right leaving that particular "member" of the "team" out]
we chose them based on our outfits, and what felt right in our hearts. i picked "joker" because it's the wild card in a deck of cards. it can be as low as a two, or as high as an ace, depending on what you need.
and that's what i do. i'm adaptable.
