cw: violent thoughts, murder

[Of course he promises.

Who gives a shit. Who cares.

Everything is meaningless drivel in a false world and what does it matter if cages and chains bind him in both. Lying doesn't matter. Telling her false truths doesn't matter. Giving the answer she wants to hear because

That's what a prince does. Should. Would.

Doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter.
A choice made years ago.

So long ago.

Temporary binding isn't a lie - death a few choices away, a few slashes of a man's throat away, a cabal's grudge and power vacuum taking out the rot Shido fed and brought into existence.

Akechi hates Izutsumi - more than ever. 'Promise?' Like it's relevant. Like it matters. Whether he's chained or not, lives or not, dies or not-

He made his choice. Would make them all over again. Would bind steel around his neck until it cut through his throat if it meant that man's death.

It's fine. It's irrelevant. He's fine and nothing matters. Fine, and all is according to plan. Fine, and a future one world away is bright, so bright. Vengeance and wrath unleashed on the one who deserves it most in the world and he'll be fine.

I promise.
