[ After politely texting Akira to let her in, Sara knocks on his door a few times. When he opens it, Sara is standing there, holding Narumi Ito underneath both arms.. It takes a few tries, but she lifts him a little like she's offering a cat. ]
Kijima-san, you have a free bed right? Narumi-senpai needs one.
[ Akira is waiting for a knock, as demanded, with arms crossed across his chest. He cants his head slightly and opens the door, presented with (1) Sara and a ducking soulless corpse.
He looks to her, blinking thrice, and then immediately closes the door. It should be a rejection but a second later he’s opening it again, brows furrowed. ]
[ She tries to get her foot in the door before Akira can close it, but it’s hard to move quickly while supporting a much taller teen. It ends up more of an ineffective kick while nearly dropping Narumi.
Akira opens the door in time to see Sara fumbling to lift up Narumi again. Help. ]
This! [ Let her lift him up like a cat again.] Is Narumi Ito. He lost his soul, so he’s not even a bad roommate. And he’s an important clue for Ventus-san, so we really need to keep him.
[ She looks down at Narumi’s pale corpse like face…but you can see the slight rise and fall of his chest. Akira looks pretty unimpressed but he hasn’t said no yet. ]
He’s clean and he’s alive. Maybe we’ll figure out what that ritual did soon, so it doesn’t even have to be long! So please, Akira-san. Take him into your care!
[ If she says it with conviction, it can become true.
Now, let her slowly slide towards that door...maybe get a foot in while Akira is digging into his pocket.]
Deal. [ A bunch of cheap keychains for a bed...what a weird guy. ] The shop is closed right now, but I won't break my promise. I'll get a bunch of keychains.
To you. [ He speaks without any hesitation; there’s no convincing him that this is something normal.
Whatever. Akira grabs the soulless body from Sara’s hands, holding him like a child would examine a doll before before hiking him up on his shoulder. ] The guy’ll let me know if you don’t, so if it turns out you don’t keep your promise I’ll toss him off the roof.
[ Traveling across the room, he lies the body in the empty bed. Huffing lightly. ]
W-why would I not do it? I gave you my word, so I'll absolutely buy them! [ They aren't very cute, so she'll just give them to someone else, but she'll buy them. ]
Hehe...I was a martial arts champion in middle school.
[ Urk...don't figure her out... People who don't accept praise are the worst. Can't you be nice like Ishimaru, and just get carried away when she calls you cool.
Still, she's not that fake. Five keychains isn't that much trouble. It's not like he's asking her to play rock gatcha. ]
Five time champ? [ Drat, he's cool. ] What did you do? I did kendo, but my high school didn't offer it as a club.
And Akira-san? Threats aren't nice. I've already promised twice, and I really do want Narumi to have a bed.
[ He's an only child who fights in UG matches, praise just means someone wants to beat your ass for the sake of looking stronger. They've got no idea what it's like to be desperate just to survive. ]
Mixed martial arts. I'm better at kickboxing but I'm practicing Muay Thai.
[ He perks a brow. ]
It's not a threat. I'm telling you if you don't, then I'll hurt you -- it's just a fact.
[ She can't even help saying it. Mixed martial arts is just cool, and kick boxing as well. The urge to ask him to show her a few tricks is strong but she has a lecture she needs to do first! ]
That...is what a threat is. You'll hurt me if I don't do what you want? Look, its not polite, Akira-san. It makes you seem like a creep. [ Threatening a nice person like her, honestly. ]
9/17 oh akirraaaa i have a present for you.
Kijima-san, you have a free bed right? Narumi-senpai needs one.
[ Even soulless husks deserve beds. ]
insane

You want to keep a corpse — basically — in my room cause I’m the only one with space? Is it gonna attract flies?

[ And a little perverted. Living with another person it just weird in general.
He digs into his pocket, pulling out keychain from his pocket. ]
Buy five of these from the shopkeep and I’ll do it.

Anyway... he kinda just threw Narumi onto the bed, so they look like a drunk just passed out. It's kinda funny. He leaves him there. ]
Oh? Cool, so was I. [ He lifts a hand, holding up all five fingers. ] Five time champ. So if you don't keep your word, I'll break your arm.
