Reason being two fold: First a place to discuss without being at each other's throats (mostly)
☆ katveh.
oh my god
Pixle
Second so that he can tell Akechi exactly how he fooled him as he has a faceful of pancakes in his face
☆ katveh.
gonna punch you in the face kurusu
☆ katveh.
you tempt me so
Pixle
Because I think Akechi never figured out HOW they got him, I'm sure he just things they doubted him
Pixle
*just thinks
Pixle
no it was your pancake comment

☆ katveh.
it’s been so long.... but never long enough
Pixle
I really like playing the rival angle and you know Ren would be the little shithead type to plan something like that
Pixle
SEcretly super happy to see him too
Pixle
gonna feed you, pancake boy
Pixle
being alive and all
kaboo 🎃
i hope they're rainbow neon pancakes
🌙
I want to see this happen.
Pixle
kaboo 🎃
: Oh he will take him to the most rainbowy place possible
Pixle
like extra amazing pancakes like Ren won't spare an expense
kaboo 🎃
beautiful 
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
suspicious
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
this coming from the guy who only asked him to hang out once... and that was to take him to church to confess his sins................
Pixle
Aww he would have taken you other places
Pixle
if you weren't trying to like, idk set up to kill him
Pixle
I mean in this setting he definately would take Akechi to different places (so he could compete against him)
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
yes but he's not supposed to know about that so!! suspicious!!!
Pixle
oh my gosh even better if it's an Akechi from his past like
Pixle
"oh no"
Pixle
"how do I tell him he died"
Pixle
I do like the anime at least implies they went to places together
Pixle
and I like that the manga sidequest one also implies they did a few cases to help each other
Pixle
even if Ren/Akira knew that Akechi was not to be trusted
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
tell him he died, he kills you right there
Pixle
wow
Pixle
Honestly I think Ren would be very much truth is the best policy if it comes down to it
Pixle
At least for this anyway
Pixle
hiding it will just have it come out at the worst time
Pixle
This partly because he remembers what the hot springs did and who knows what else can be good for truth and lies when you don't want them
Pixle
also relevant
also relevant
Pixle
also right before that
also right before that

Pixle
He misses all his friends but he kinda hopes Akechi comes here just so he can live again (even if it is selfish)
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
correction: so he can live knowing he'll die
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
thanks a lot, Ren
Pixle
that's true
Pixle
At the same time, is it better to lie to him so he can live there? Gosh what a tough decision
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
maybe don't wish for him to be there at all!!
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
especially if you're getting Yu to pity him!!
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ
stupid protags 
Pixle
woops (not really woops)
ᴀᴋᴇᴅɢʏ

...On the other hand, a game based around physical affection would be really good for this touchstarved boy.
Pixle
true
E.S. Levi
...He might have Issues with the 'free love' culture, though, given...he hasn't exactly seen any healthy non-romantic sexual relationships.
Pixle
Or many healthy relationships in general
E.S. Levi
Yeah...but presumably he's aware healthy relationships do exist, so he wouldn't view them as negatively as he would, say, anything he can kneejerk compare to powerful men keeping mistresses and completely ignoring how all the women involved feel about the arrangement.
