[sheet music in hand, wandering into Kaito's bedroom]
Hey, Kaito?
Hey, Kaito?
Mmm. ...Can you shift behind me a little bit? I don't want you to get hit if I do manage to snap this.
[that puts you in a good position to feel his MANY MUSCLES as he strains, using his full strength to try and pull the chain apart. after several seconds of effort he relaxes, letting it go slack again]
...hahhh. ...I don't, but it's necessary.
...hahhh. ...I don't, but it's necessary.
[stilling, slowly curling that hand shut]
... I very nearly killed her once, because she had embraced me, and I became emotional enough about it to want nothing more than to hold her in return. While I've learned how not to repeat that mistake, it requires vigilance— which I cannot always maintain, and which she does not always want me to maintain.
So... yes. It is that bad.

[his shoulders sag slightly as he exhales at the touch; but the line of his spine is still stiff, and when he speaks again his voice is strained.]
...How do you enjoy this?
...How do you enjoy this?
...
I don't understand it. I wish I could—I've been trying—but...

[abruptly looping another section of chain around his hands and yanking at it, hard]
What would you do if we didn't?
What would you do if we didn't?
If you were already tied up, you wouldn't have a choice in the matter.
[snorting a huffy, humorless sort of laugh]
Yes— but under those circumstances it's our choice whether to honor it or not. Not yours.

[he jerks away and snarls, a rattling, unhappy thing, dropping the chains into his lap with a loud clatter as he brings his hands up to cover his face]
You know less than a quarter of all that I've done, and yet you trust me enough to put yourself in my hands.
I've known her for over a year and would do anything she asked of me— anything, it seems, but trust her enough to do the same.

[he's still rumbling unhappily, but at least this time he doesn't pull away. instead, he just sags again.
after a moment, though, he blindly fumbles for one of the other Kaito's hands, tugging it out and wrapping part of the chain around his wrist]
