Oh, you can cook, too? You're so talented, Akira-kun.

[Have a lil' pat on the head. Support is important! The younger Akechi frowns a little, though.]

You don't have to. There's so much to choose from between here and Tokyo that I'm sure we'll get by.

True. I don't "have" to, but I offered anyway. I can only imagine you've missed being doted on by your unruly roommate. Yu did tend to spoil you, didn't he?

[His younger self squints again.]

...I'm getting highly suspicious of how much you know, just for the record.

[The older Akechi simply shrugs.]

Is it really so hard to believe that somewhere in the multiverse, there's someone else like you?

[Very quickly, he whispers to Akira:]

I'm not sure he's ready to learn that I am literally him, so that's our secret, okay?

[The younger Akechi watches closely, but... he doesn't want to grump about it when it might upset Akira. Dang it!]
