[ All this emphasizing not panicking really makes it seem like the appropriate response is panic though. ]

—why would I panic?

[outplays]

You shouldn't. Can you come get me or not?

[returnafavor]

[ This really does not seem like a convincing argument. ]

Of course I can— [ And there's the sounds of Kise pulling on his shoes and jacket as he prepares to go fetch Akashi ] — but why are you telling me not to panic?

[outplays]

[ He is absolute, he can see the entirety of the future, he foresees panic — et cetera. ]

I'm feeling a bit unwell, but it's nothing that you need to worry about.

[returnafavor]

How unwell? Is that why you've been gone all this time?

[ Maybe he should've used his fancy foresight not to make friends with people who'd worry about him in the first place if he wanted to avoid panic. Just a thought. ]

[outplays]

Unwell enough that I think I need help to walk back. [ What a helpful answer!! ] ... I'm mostly fine, just tired.

[returnafavor]

I'll be there in a few minutes, then. Where were you, though??

[ You are not escaping the question. ]

[outplays]

I'll see you soon, Ryouta.

[ And then Akashi drops the voicemail completely... it's not a smooth escape from the question and he knows it, but a temporary delay, at least. ]
