    Summary

    "I'm not trying to talk you into anything." A pause. Statt didn't make eye contact with him. Grace didn't like where this was going. "I am trying to make you understand what I'm about to do next."

    Despite it just being the two of them in the room, the vibe changed drastically as she spoke, despite her calm voice. Like the temperature suddenly dropped multiple degrees.

    There was some movement in the hallway.

    Grace shifted uncomfortably.

    "Mild sedation will be beneficial to avoid further damage.” Mary says, cool as a cucumber. Right. That sounds good. Great, even.

    And there was a needle coming towards me.

    Wait."
    ...

    Grace has made peace with not going home. Grace has made peace with his choice, and he would choose Rocky every time. Grace has not made peace with what happened to him before he left.

    Summary

    “Well…” Ren starts, even though no more than half an hour ago he punched Akechi in the face, “I… have Phantom Thief money.”

    It feels lame in his mouth and so he stops himself there, even though this does not convey nearly the amount of information it needs to. This is backed up when Akechi just stares at him blankly.

    “… Which is not Detective Prince money,” He continues, “But… might buy something better than a… questionably clean hotel.”

    Akechi snarls a laugh. “I don’t need your handouts.”

    “I mean—” Ren rushes, and it’s so pathetic how his protective anger has abandoned him to his vulnerable desperation, “It’s not a handout if I’m there too.”

    Akechi blinks at him, then plants his face in his hands. “Oh dear God no.”

    Ren looks up in time to see Akechi outside the train window before he departs from Tokyo. After missing his train to catch up with him, and with Akechi having nowhere to go in light of his miraculous resurrection, it's only logical and ergonomic they share a hotel room for a night. Or two.
