H—hey!
[He is completely caught off guard, so he's pushed right on over, left colder than moments before even if he is closer to the phone. It's startling, and Eichi is most certainly pouting over it... which is exactly why he grabs the phone and turns completely away from Midorima, plotting.]
I wonder... You can satisfy your hunger in any way, right? So I'll order food just for myself.
[He won't, really, but he's absolutely trying to get a rise out of him by being like this.]

[ oh, he's not objecting to this. not like midorima has anywhere to go from here anyway, if he ever decides to make tsumugi stop this nonsense. the hand on his mophead together with that soft tone of voice urging him to hurry register in his mind, and tsumugi picks up the pace by swallowing more of his length, tongue caressing along the underside of his cock as he pulls away to catch his breath, before diving right in again.
he's hoping he's doing something right here, since this is his first time giving one and all. they don't exactly make it as descriptive in books, so tsumugi is pretty much going by instinct here, prioritizing speed over technique for now. ]

When you put it like that, I really hope I don't.
[ Yeah he's going to spare both of them and not probe into this whole Iris thing too deeply. ]
So...uh, have you heard anything that weird about Sanguis types? I know you said you don't know any, but...

Supposedly they have super strength, super smell, and get incredibly aggressive in all aspects.
[ He barely knows any somehow though?? So he doesn't realize how possessive they can get, or territorial, or anything like that. ]
They're typically given wolf, koi, or snake characteristics.

Well, except for the aggressive part I suppose that doesn't sound too bad, although I sure wouldn't want to end up as a fish.
[ He's still tossing and stirring his meal around in the pan, pouring in the sauce he's mixed together from a few odds and ends. It might not be fancy but it's already smelling pretty good. ]
...Seems like two out of three are bearable then, so guess I have to hope I luck out.

[ This is so far from what Midorima was thinking that it visibly befuddles him for a brief moment. ..At the very least, it's interrupted his want to kiss her. It's still there, but it's enough of a distraction that he's not tempted to just do it and explain later. That would probably be bad anyway. Shouldn't he ask first? He should ask first. Weiss doesn't seem like she'd be the type to find it acceptable to just take what he wants-- particularly since he's offering her something, and he wants Weiss to still want to come around.
...If he was just giving into pheromones, then he wouldn't be considering that.
Midorima takes a few moments to answer. He's definitely taking his time deciding on this. (Though the decision is something very different than what Weiss's question was...) He straightens his back more than normal if possible, tilting his head back a little so his chin is further up. It looks like he's literally turning his nose up at her, but.. ]
You can, but you should know that I'm going to kiss you if your face gets too close to me.
[ What kind of attempt to ask for permission is that.. he sounds so indignant about it too... ]

[ God that's annoying when he does that. Midorima looks a little grumpier after he says that, snapping back. ]
Don't be a braggart, Akashi.

If you do that I'll just make you have to go grocery shopping later.
[ He will raid his fridge and cabinets in vengeance. He may not be able to cook, but he can eat raw ingredients. ]

Oh? How are you going to do that? I always eat out.
[Joke's on you, Midorima!! Until Keito arrives, Eichi's fridge and cabinets are e m p t y other than tea.
It's kind of pathetic, actually.]

No wonder you're dying. Buy fruits, vegetables, nuts, and bread at least.
[ Even if Eichi, like Midorima, can't cook for shit those can at least be eaten raw.
He'll drink all of his tea and just pee all day then!! ]

[ Yes, all the time. Akashi is the definition of laying his dick out on the table to make sure that people know he's the best at things. Things like winning every prize at school festivals or pointing out that he doesn't even have to try to beat Midorima quickly definitely aren't shows of humility. ]
An unnecessary one.
[ Midorima can't say a way out of this corner so he sighs and gestures to show concession. ]

[ She's admittedly a little surprised by what Midorima said, but... there's a bigger part of her that likes the attention. She likes that he's being nice to her, not kicking her out or not bossing her around. She's not sure if it's because of the Cordis moon that she feels a little more excited, but the idea of being kissed by him doesn't sound bad at all.
She shifts in her seat so she can properly face him, then she moves closer so she can reach for his glasses with both hands. ]
I don't like getting close to people, but I don't think I'd mind if it was with you.
[ He's cute, he lets her use his piano, he's smart!! His personality needs a little work but Weiss isn't exactly the nicest person in the world, either. Plus, a part of her actually wants him to like her. Maybe it's because she doesn't want to push people away anymore. So, here she is, moving even closer until her chest bumps into his arm. She'd moved with the intention of taking his glasses off, but a kiss along the way doesn't sound bad at all. ]

I don't want you to think that I don't want you around.
[ The other Akashi, at least, the past other Akashi, would have laughed at such a remark. He's... He's gotten better, and Midorima doesn't have to worry about the other Akashi anymore. They're friends and Akashi will do whatever it takes to make sure they remain friends. ]

I'm not so sensitive as to think your arrival in another world wouldn't exhaust you and you're trying to get rid of me. Take care of yourself before you worry about other people.
[ He doesn't know he's all.. one person now. Akashi's definitely someone who he needs to watch over as far as he's concerned.
Even so, he does get up. ]
Close your eyes.
[ Akashi's tired, so he's not going to drag him to the grocery store as he'd intended, but he is going to give him enough chroma to order dinner at least. He shouldn't eat just bread. ]

[ Listen, there are only so many ways that Midorima is comfortable giving chroma. He can't imagine Akashi agreeing to one of his decided acceptable methods.
So once he cooperates, Midorima puts his hand on his head and gently pats him. ]
Buy yourself something to eat besides bread tonight.

There doesn't seem to be a set bar for how drastic the animalistic turn is. You could potentially just end up with gills and the ability to breathe under water.
[ He thinks that would be cool. Someone could become the world's greatest swimmer during Sanguis moon if that were the case. ]
Though there also doesn't seem to be many limitations, either. I've heard some... rumors of more private physical alterations. The prismals don't have much concept of discretion when you're attempting to research. I haven't experienced any myself, thankfully.
[ If Mayuzumi doesn't pick up what he's laying down, too bad. He's not explaining it further. It's the closest to a warning that he's going to give him. ]

I don't cook, so why would I buy ingredients to?
[He sighs, and rolls back over after a moment, handing out the phone to Midorima.]
Your stubbornness has won out, at least a little. Though I'm sure you're used to that.

Those are food, not ingredients. You don't need to have a complex creation for every meal.
[ He takes his phone and starts going through it to find a number for a burger place. ]
I am. You should know I get my way often enough that my coach and team captain had to make a deal with me to get three free-passes on anything I want each day that they can't argue with. It saved me a lot of grief in needing to fight to get my way, and it keeps me from going overboard with them because I'll narrow it down to the things I want most.
[ See. Eichi. The only way to bargain with him is to give him what he wants, because that's just how hard-headed he is. ]

[He kind of wants to step on Midorima's foot for comments like that. But at the same time—]
Fufu... you're so cute. Saying arrogant things like that is irritating, but it also makes me want to kiss you, right now.
[Hmm. Blunt. It's the moons encouraging that, probably... or is he using that as an excuse? Either way, he won't bother Midorima with an actual attempt, and just loosely curls one arm around him, instead, burying his face nearby while he lets him call. He's still affectionate. That, for sure, is the moon's doing.]

[ Then he'll kiss him for good behavior. He rolls onto his side just enough to be able to properly kiss Eichi slowly, using his hand to tuck his bangs behind his ear. If Eichi moves to try to hold onto him or keep it going, he'll pull back. ]
Your reward for giving in.
[ Spoil your Midorima and he will spoil back. But only if he is first spoiled. ]

[That... is not what he was expecting.
A kiss. A nice kiss, with an affectionate gesture like that. He was just about to settle in and expect to be ignored and maybe even shoved away, but he gets this? Thankfully, he doesn't try to press it further or cling. He's too shocked, and he's left blinking when Midorima pulls back. The moons... can he blame the moons for this burning in his cheeks...
That line, though. It's. It's still a sweet gesture, but it's playing dirty? Or is it just nice, to do things for each other? No, it's definitely playing dirty...!
Eichi doesn't know if he likes it or hates it. And so, he simply hums in his acknowledgement, left speechless for once so that Midorima can order these burgers or whatever. Eichi's just going to puzzle over this quietly.]

[ Midorima isn't actually intent on using it to manipulate Eichi. He rather likes kissing him, and when Midorima gets what he wants he tends to be a lot less cranky. But he's also still not the type to behave affectionately, so anything he does he's going to either be very serious about or he's going to have an excuse for.
He isn't quite sure what they are, but he knows that Eichi isn't serious about him, so being serious back would be a problem. Eichi doesn't want him so much as he wants someone to love him, and Midorima has no intention of setting himself up to be hurt, so the walls will remain up and so will the excuses.
He ends up taking his time perusing the burger joints. Thankfully, there are a couple of 'craft' burger places so he ends up being able to order kaleslaw instead of fries from one of them. The burgers themselves are just normal burgers.
He'll miss fries with his meal, but he wants to make sure Eichi doesn't get too much grease. If he has burger, he has to eat a healthy side. Thankfully, Midorima likes vegetables just fine. The only food he truly loathes is natto, and that's not an option with burgers so he isn't concerned. ]
It'll be about 40 minutes.
