Raizen choked.
He took a sip of tea at the exact wrong moment, and the moment Atman's sentence fully made sense in his mind, and his body betrayed him like it had been waiting for an excuse.
He sputtered hard, eyes widening, tea going the wrong airway, and he leaned forward with a strangled cough that sounded like a dying engine.
Kenzo almost spit his tea out too.
He jerked the cup away from his mouth at the last second, cheeks puffed, eyes bulging like he was fighting for his life, then swallowed with visible effort and slammed the cup down on the table like it personally offended him.
"MARRY KORI!?" Kenzo shouted. He was a bit more than slightly annoyed.
The moss roof above them didn't even tremble, but Raizen swore the entire terrace flinched.
"What are you even talking about!?"
Atman blinked.
