Akeem gently takes Reo’s hand, trying to comfort him in his own way. Akeem nods. “Okay. If the jerk can be killed then cool.” He gently pulls Reo closer, a gesture of him attempting to help calm him down.

XDDD ikr-

Reo stays tense, staring at the man, opening his mouth and then closing it, looking at Akeem with a helpless expression. He shifts, using his hands to sign quickly, He looks like Father. I want to get out of here. He bites his lip.

Aster watches Akeem. "See you tonight then."

He watches Reo for a moment. He couldn't let the man know he'd understood. But he wanted to apologise at the same time.

Eventually he strides past them, heading to work.

Akeem frowns, now putting his attention only on Reo. “Come on. We can go hang out and calm down.” He gently pulls Reo away from Aster, “Wanna go get a snack first? To calm our nerves.” He soon remembers that he needed to ‘human’ again. He smiles softly, offering a hug.

Reo smiles, relaxing after Aster was out of sight, “Yeah. Come on. How about some sandwiches from that sandwich place? I head it’s really good.”

He smiles brighter, hugging Akeem, “I thought you were ignoring me. . .” He mumbles, sounding hurt.

Akeem frowns, “No! I’m sorry!” He hugs Reo, pouting. “I didn’t mean tooooo!” He huffs. “Great now I feel bad.” He grumbles. Even though he acted like he was actually hurt, he tried to keep a playful tone to show he was only joking.

Reo laughs, “It’s fine. I’m going with you though. Just cause he reminds me of father doesn’t mean I’m not going to be there for you. So let’s go kill some time. I’m sure we can find an arcade around here after we get some food.” He smiles at Akeem and then pulls away, walking down the sidewalk.

(Yo, Visio, do you wanna do a TimeSkip?)
