Akaashi gets a shrug from Tsukki in return. Really, what can you do? There's only so far you can stop one Bokuto Kotaro. And okay, everybody knows now - weirdly, that's a relief. Getting it all out with one hell of a show from both parties.

Not that Bokuto's getting away with it completely. As Tsukki pushes into a lunge, he's close enough to murmur -

"I'm looking forward to next time, you know."

Both the complete shut down and the aftermath.
