"Suman. It's a habit," Takumi said to explain the fact that he hadn't left any options open. With Eira stating that she would go forth to take her bath, Takumi started the stove. He had a few other things to grab and throw together while it heated, and this was for the best in the end. Something was fated to happen, and Takumi wouldn't even be in the process of actually cooking by the time it did. In fact, he was reaching out to grab an egg the moment Eira attempted to start her bath water... which happened to be the very same moment Takumi was teleported, clothing aside, to the space right against Eira's backside while she was bent over the bathtub. Takumi would also question the universe aloud. "... What?" he asked. In that exact moment, a stream of the same red mist from earlier would erupt from the drain toward the face of Eira.
