It was only one time.
The one and only time Saiki ever used his powers against someone else.
It had been so long ago, but he never forgot. Really, it wasn't an easy thing to forget.
He wasn't an easy thing to forget.
********************
TWO:
"...and really, we can't be sure that he was actually born a hero. In Cyborg Ciderman: Origin, we're clearly shown that he stumbles upon the soda elixir that granted him full control of his powers, even though the Baron Cola was attempting to protect it; most likely to prevent a hero from emerging and threatening his reign of terror, or perhaps the awakening of another villain, who might grow rebellious and usurp his position."
Saiki couldn't care less when it came to Cyborg Ciderman. Yuuta gave him enough trouble with it, and he didn't feel like spending his time watching the latest episode, but Akechi decided to invite himself over again.
Akechi's visits were growing more and more frequent.
Saiki couldn't care less for accessories. His ring was an exception, because Akechi's thoughts were more than he could handle, in more ways than one. He was almost always near a clock, so he hadn't felt the need to purchase a watch. But the stopwatch feature could come in handy.
-START-
"So if we're talking... about..."
Saiki had moved over on the couch to sit right next to Akechi.
(1, 2, 3...)
"Kusuo-kun, what are you-"
Akechi didn't finish speaking. Saiki interrupted him, raising his hand to hold his face and pulling him a few inches closer.
(11, 12, 13...)
Saiki couldn't decide if Akechi looked scared, or just startled.
Either way, his expression reminded him of how he reacted when he demonstrated his powers.
(21, 22, 23...)
Akechi's skin was so smooth. It almost made Saiki forget that all he could see were veins.
It felt so warm, so real. Saiki could feel the heat of his skin, slowly rising in temperature, heating his lips.
(31, 32, 33...)
Flesh, pink and soft; he wished he could see it. But this was good enough.
It felt different from what he'd expected. Better.
(41, 42, 43...)
Saiki wasn't sure why Akechi wasn't saying anything.
But he didn't want to know what he was thinking. That might have ruined it.
(51, 52, 53...)
Just a bit longer...
This didn't take too long...
(54, 55, 56...)
That was long enough. Any longer would be too risky.
It was best to play it safe.
(57, 58, 59-)
'I'm sorry.'
-ERASE-
...
"Hmm? I apologize, I seem to have lost my train of thought. That never happens to me, so I'm surprised."
'You were telling me about Baron Cola's secret lair? Hurry up, the commercials are almost over.'
