"Doesn't seem to be doing you any harm, either. What happened to staying out of it, to just letting her be happy? You're either serious about her or you're not, Yuki. And if you're not, you're doing a damn fine job of manipulating her."

"I'm not manipulating her, Suoh," Yuki said definatively. "I am very serious about her. I promised to keep my nose out of her business, and Baoh's... I'm done trying to convince her Baoh is just playing her. I'm done trying to convince anybody anything, but I am NOT! Giving up on her..."

"So what? You're going to try be a big man and show her what she's missing? Make her doubt herself? Great plan, man, real great plan. You let me know how that one works out for you, because I'm sure she's going to respond to it really well," Suoh muttered, rubbing at his eyes. He knew Yuki wasn't being forthright with him, and he knew there was more going on between him and and Oki than he was letting on. He just couldn't figure out what.

"Look Suoh... I think you're a cool guy, and you're overtired and worried about your sister, so I'm not letting you get under my skin right now, no matter how hard you try to press me for some clue into what's going on. But I'm pretty sure if Oki wanted you to know what was going on... in her mind... She'd have told you. She might be a little confussed right now, but I'm pretty sure she's not unhappy... So let her live her life how she wants to live it... Ok?"

"If she's happy, then I'll marry Izumi when I get home," Suoh muttered. "She doesn't trust me. I don't know why, but something happened. She went out one morning and we were fine, then when she came back she wasn't. There's a lot she's not saying but..." he tapped the side the side of his head with a finger lightly. "She can't hide all of it. And she's not dealing with it well. So yeah, I am worried. And I'm worried about what's going to happen to her when Baoh decides he doesn't want to be so good natured about all of this any more."

Yuki's head snapped around to look at Suoh with near break neck speed. "You think he might hurt her?"

"I think he might hurt you, which would upset her. Baoh doesn't seem the type to slap a woman around, relax."

Yuki did relax. He didn't seem to care if Baoh wanted to come after him or not. He DID care about Oki. "I'll deal with him if I have to. I wouldn't worry about that too much. If he is capable of doing something to hurt me, then we'll play it off as me training way too hard as usual, and Oki will just shake her head at me and tell me not to overdo it, again..."

"I don't think he'll give you the chance to play it off like that. He'll want to make sure she knows, keep her under his thumb if he's manipulating her the way you think he is. Even if he isn't, he's going to want to stake his claim and make it very, very clear."

"He'll lose her if he tries that... I think Oki's stronger than either of you give her credit for if you think publicly beating me would make her stay with him..."

Suoh shrugged. "Maybe, maybe not. I don't really see what the attraction is between the two of them, myself. She let him treat her like arm candy last night. She doesn't ask questions, just accepts whatever happens. He disappears for a week? She acts like it doesn't happen. He could come in smelling of another woman's perfume and she wouldn't say boo. Maybe he'd lose her, maybe he wouldn't if he went after you openly. Do you really think it'll help your chances?"

Yuki shook his head. "I not worried about 'chances.'" Yuki said. "But I wouldn't mind a piece of him if it came down to it. And if I end up in the hospital... Well, wouldn't be the first time I had a stay in there... Besides... If Otomeken gets back, maybe we don't have to worry about any of it..."

"You think she's just going to roll over like Oki? Or are you just hoping she ends her relationship with him so things are less complicated?" Oki was worried about this, he knew. Someone had put something in her head, and he felt is gnawing at her when she was distracted.

"Maybe she castrates Baoh and neither one of them have to be bothered by him, maybe she takes him back, I don't know... And I'm not psychic, so I don't know what will happen either. But whatever it is, don't think I'm just rolling over and taking it from him like everyone else in his life seems to do..."

"So you lied to her," Suoh said flatly. "You said you were going to stay out of it, but you're spoiling for a fight with him, huh?"
