[they are all fairly codependent. it's sad, really. Jyushimatsu had been making the most out of the situation, the way he usually does. but going from six to two was... well, it just wasn't right. and then he'd been assigned rooms with strangers. cool strangers, but strangers nonetheless. there had been several times when he'd snuck into Choromatsu's room when there was just him there.

he finally huffs out a soft laugh at Ichimatsu's words before nodding and leaning back some. the smile is still on his face, but it isn't as wide as it normally is. and there are also tears]
