[ It's only been two weeks since they've been here. One week since the revelation of roles on that damned menu card.
He'd really been banking on it being not noticeable - see, the thing about immunity is that while he's not affected by the night terrors or any other happenings that afflict the mind, aside from whatever Craftly's note mentions on Monday, he's mostly also left in the dark as to the specifics of how the night terrors work.
So yeah, that makes faking it a challenge in and of itself.
While he can bluff about what he's hearing because regret is a ridiculously easy starting point, it's also not like Seto can just randomly walk up to someone and ask them how they're suffering and how they're being affected - Craftly probably wouldn't give him the information at all, and even he knows that asking the wrong person is liable to get him outed.
Case in point. Just one question, with the wrong person, could have gotten him killed. ]
... I can't. I should consider myself lucky. I'd assumed the line in the note about not sleeping was merely hyperbole instead of literal prevention of sleep.
[ His gaze will flicker towards Light for a moment - he's not surprised that Light has memorised the entire menu. He's done the same thing, too.
He'll shrug, but his features will also be grim. It's impossible to deny it now and he would rather it be discovered by someone he's at least vaguely familiar with.
... Although, damn it, he's probably going to have to actually find some way to fake being affected by the night terrors more convincingly, now. ]
