Amanita - A Night in the Observatory

    I'm watching some episode toward the end of the series (apocalypse saga?); Akio is in the planitarium, holding a glass of cognac, staring out the window. Touga is there also, they seem to have been arguing and Akio does not look happy. He tells Touga he doesn't like his attitude, and if he doesn't want to cooperate he can be very easily replaced; like maybe Saionji would like another shot at the rose bride after all... Touga retorts that maybe Akio should do that, and maybe he could turn around and tell Utena everything, the truth about him, and Anthy, and what the revolution is *really* going to do... Akio appears startled for a moment; Touga looks smug, like he won the whatever the argument was... but then Akio sighs, calmly takes a sip of his drink, then coldcocks Touga square in the jaw. He then proceeds to kick Touga's ass all up and down the planetaruim, yelling about how he's an ingrate and a fool, and how could he even suggest something like that after everything he'd done for him, and he should know he has just as much at stake in all this as himself, and he WAS NOT going to let him screw it up, (all without spilling the drink she's still holding, 'cause he's just that smooth ^.^...) So finally Akio has Touga pinned to the edge of the coffee table by the throat, and he's telling Touga he has a hell of a lot of fucking nerve, and that he didn't need him, and he could easily just choke him to death, and bury him in the rose garden, and make it so that no one would even remember he existed by daybreak, and probably some other stuff too but then while he's doing this the cognac glass that he STILL hasn't put down (yes, he's been beating the crap out of Touga this whole time with only one free hand 'cause he got crazy skills that way) sort of implodes inside of his fist. Seeming more miffed than in pain, he stops strangling Touga for a moment to pick at the glass shards in his hand. Touga decides this would be an excellent time to get the hell out of there, hoping Akio will be distracted long enough to let him escape. But as Touga tries to crawl away, instead of tending to his wounds Akio grabs Touga by the hair at the nape of his neck and drags him across the floor, still ranting about how he cannot believe *this* shit, that Touga could stand there and threaten him that way, to his face, and expect to get away with it, and his utter lack of respect was almost as shocking as the fact that he could do this to him even after all the effort they both put into setting this whole thing up in the first place, and that he's terribly disappointed in him... Akio reprimands Touga all the way acroos the room to the liquor cabinet; with his good hand he pours himself another drink (scotch this time, by the shape of the glass) He then walks back across the room to a couch, still dragging Touga along, who is scrambling on his hands and knees trying to keep up and not get all his hair pulled out. So then Akio is sitting on the couch drinking and bleeding, and Touga is on the floor all beat up with Akio-blood matted in his hair and spattered all over his uniform, and Akio says something about the terrible mess they've made of all this (and he's not talking about all the blood and overturned furniture and tufts of red hair everywhere) and Touga sort of creeps forward, murmuring apologies, and starts licking drops of blood off Akio's fingertips so they won't fall on the rug; Akio says (thinks?) the one thing he always liked about Touga is that afterwards he always automatically assumed it was his fault...
