DAY 37: MEN'S SHOWERS (4th Shift)

[mazoku-king.livejournal.com]

There had been an awkward air left between him and Tyki after their conversation. Yuuri knew he wasn't the best at explaining much of anything, and for the tenth time he wondered why Murata wasn't here to answer the difficult questions for him. Everyone had been herded out of the cafeteria after that, and Yuuri had simply followed along in confusion as he headed towards the showers.

Yuuri still hadn't seen Wolfram yet and the young Maou was wondering if the blonde Mazoku was alright. Stretching his head up higher, Yuuri attempted to look over the heads of the other patients around him in an attempt to catch sight of Wolfram. Unfortunately, though, he was unsuccessful.

"Where are you, Wolfram?" He muttered to himself while stepping under the shower's spray. Maybe a shower would help clear his mind.

A lab? Nice touch. Hikaru laughed quietly to himself and started rubbing shampoo into Kaoru's hair. Might as well get a little Hosting on while they were at it. Danny already looked a bit freaked out by the identical twin/clone/Hika-bot thing. How far could they push him?

"Yes. Yes we are." And, strictly speaking, he was right. Identical twins came from a single fertilized egg and shared DNA. In a purely scientific sense, they were, in fact, clones.

So Hikaru wasn't even lying. That much.

Part of him wanted to end the ruse and rub it in Danny's face that he'd been gullible enough to beat him, but the part that wanted to see how far he could take this won out.

"Or I could be Hika-bot. I really do like the sound of that."

"Hi, Danny-boy!" he sang out, gleefully.

Oh god. He'd taken the bait!

"Yes. Yes we are," he said in unison with Hikaru, closing his eyes and practically purring as his hair was washed. Hosting and pulling legs all at once. It was unbelievable how things were picking up.

He opened them and looked at 'Kaoru', rather bashfully. "Oh...it's just... I always wanted a little brother called Kaoru. But we can change it if you want?" He smiled at his clone. What a lucky boy he was to have such a thing!

Oh, he could believe these two were twins even more now. The fact that they spoke in unison somehow made it more believable...even if he and Dani had never done that.

Danny looked between the two clones (unless one was a robot like they said, which made no sense to Danny since he was taking a shower) and finally gave up.

"Wait, which of you is Hikaru?" he asked, glancing between the two. "And are you guys really clones?" He had to doubt the story at least a little bit, but he wasn't entirely sure what sort of an answer he was expecting. It was like asking a child whether or not he stole some candy--it wasn't as if the kid was going to say "yes" in response...except this time, Danny wasn't really sure what sort of an answer he was going to get at all.

Hikaru couldn't help it now. This was just too...adorably pathetic. Did the twins keep going, or should they cut the poor guy some slack? Hikaru almost felt bad for him. He was just so gullible!

Once he'd finished shampooing Kaoru's hair, the older of the twins started in on his own. "We could change it," he murmured, as if to himself. "Maybe instead of a clone I could actually be Hikaru, he could be my younger twin brother, Kaoru, and we could've been having you on for the past...oh...ten minutes or so."

He grinned at Danny, completely unapologetic. "That sound good?"

Kaoru laughed, gleefully as he opened his eyes and stood straight, hair nicely washed.

"Oh, you and your imagination, Daniel. No wait, Andrew?"

He put a hand on Hikaru's shoulder and turned him to the side a little so he could return the favour of hair washing.

"Oh, you have got to be..." Danny wanted to turn around and hit his head on the wall, but he was pretty sure that one of the nurses would come and drug him or something if he did. Instead, he settled for covering his face with his hands, ashamed of actually thinking that the two could be clones. Honestly, what were the chances? There were probably no clones at all here, and Danny was just abnormal in that he actually had one.

"I can explain!" he finally said, and then paused. "Actually, I really can't." Not without making him sound like a huge freak, at any rate, and these two seemed pretty normal as far as teenage boys went.

Hikaru grinned at his brother and obliged, turning to let Kaoru wash his hair. There was absolutely nothing wrong with a little friendly, brotherly touching, and he liked tormenting Danny a little too much. He wasn't going to actively Host, not yet, but he wanted to see how far they could go before they really made the kid uncomfortable and then crank it up a notch.

"You like science fiction a lot?" he supplied helpfully, raising his hand to form the "live long and prosper" sign. "Like that? D'you write bad fanfiction, too?"
