It had been a little while since the whole mess between the three Reapers and Mitsu had happened. Things had cooled off... sort of, but apparently a couple things still needed to be taken care of. Shun had already apologized to Mot once for getting the wrong guy initially, but it.. hadn't really been much of one.
After all, he had just said 'sorry' rather gruffly before getting up into Mac's face for what had happened.
Apparently that wasn't quite enough, which was why he found himself making his way through the Reaper halls towards the cowboy's room.
"Are you sure I really need to apologize again?" he frowned towards Mitsu before knocking on Mot's door when they arrived.

There were many issues that Mitsu still felt needed resolved from the incident that had happened and while she had apologized she felt Shun should as well. Or at least apologize properly.
"Y-yes I think you should." She nodded following behind the reaper as they made their way through the reaper dorms. The lycan had really no idea where Mot's room was...or really where she was at the moment. Shun would have to lead her back to an area she was familiar with or she would be lost.
As Shun knocked Mitsu stood slightly by waiting for a response. Hopefully Mot was in. She hoped this would help make the situation a little better somehow, though she secretly hoped it didn't make it worse. It was hard to say how things would turn out from time to time.

It had been a difficult couple weeks for the reaper. One way or another his character had been insulted, his self worth judged (mostly by himself) and weaknesses exposed. Maybe it was all of that, or perhaps he was just in a poor mood, but the reaper had not left his bedroom that day. He didn't even do much to keep busy. Simply, he sat at his desk, flicking a stick of graphite and letting it roll back to him. Over and over, his head on the desk, hunched over..
Flick. Roll. Flick. Roll.
He was interrupted from his important task by murmurs outside his door, followed by light knocking. He groaned and pushed himself away from his desk, adjusting his hat properly and standing up. He hadn't paid much attention to who the voices belonged to. It didn't matter at the time.
Mot eventually got to the door, opening it to see who was there. Who indeed. It was Shun. Mot flinched for a moment, only noticing Mitsu a moment or two later. Okay, so he wasn't going to be hit again, anyway. "Uh.. yes?" Oh dear, that wasn't very friendly! Shame.

Glancing at Mitsu for the moment, Shun just shifted his focus over towards Mot as the door was opened. He saw the guy flinch upon seeing him, which.. was an interesting reaction. He supposed that he intimidated the guy some there.
"..."
The Reaper was silent for a little while, just kind of looking between Mitsu and Mot.
"..Hi."

Mitsu wasn't sure if she was surprised or not when Mot opened the door and flinched at first seeing Shun. It made her feel bad all over again. "H..hi Mot."
Expectantly she looked toward Shun but the reaper wasn't saying anything. He was just standing there staring at the cowboil. Hoping to ease things along Mitsu lightly nudged Shun a little nodding toward Mot before she turned to the cowboil once again. "D..do you mind if we come in?"

Mot nodded slowly, stepping back to allow them to enter his room. Mentally, he was trying to get himself to act like a more accepting host, but he was having trouble mustering the will to do it. He simply did not feel himself. What a terrible time to have company!
"I don't mind."

With his hands in his pockets, Shun sort of reluctantly stepped into the room once Mot gave the go for them to enter. He glanced around briefly, even if he had been here once before. The last time though, he didn't really pay that much attention to his surroundings since he was focused on laying the pain onto Mot.
"Well..." he started.
It was actually kind of hard for him to apologize, especially when he didn't really feel all the guilty about what happened. If he felt that guilt, then there wouldn't be an issue, but that wasn't quite the case.
"Er... Mot..." he mumbled, "Sorry for holding you against a wall, punching you in the gut, then tossing you aside."

Sorry for holding you against a wall,
....punching you in the gut,
.....then tossing you aside.
"S..Shun that sounds terrible.." Mitsu whined. It didn't sound like much of an apology or at least it didn't to her. Nudging the reaper again in hopes he would say something with a little bit of meaning behind it she turned back to Mot.
From the times she had spent with the cowboil he didn't seem to really be acting like himself. He always seemed so...peppy? She really hoped this would improve things. Maybe blindly hoped.

Mac had been about to leave his room when he heard Shun's voice in the hallway, pretty much instantly prompting him to stay the hell away from Shun...which meant not leaving his room. He sat on the edge of his bed, listening to the door creak open to his neighbour's room, the muffled voices. The saving grace was that there was no banging or thudding or any manner of painful sounding noise, but in the end that made him curious. Did Shun actually visit to apologize, or was he getting smarter about beating on the cowboil in silence?
Hm.
Tough call.
Eventually his worry over the mortal wellbeing of Mot won over the potential fear for his own life, and the Psychopomp grabbed his hat, armed himself with a dangerous looking, uh, book? And headed to the next room. As always he invited himself in, just to hear the tail end of what was probably a muddy apology, and a familiar ghoul's voice telling him he was terrible. Or sounded terrible; he heard what he wanted, shut up.
"...Unholy Mother of Jack, did I just hear what I thought I heard?"

Right across the hall from Mot’s room, Hel swung her door open, ignoring the bang it made as it hit the wall. She peered out into the hall with wide eyed curiosity, having heard other doors open and voices as well. She immediately zeroed in on Mot’s open door, especially after the psychopomp entered with a book. Wait…were they having a studying party?
Only one way to find out!
Hel grinned as she marched out of her room, slamming the door behind her and across the hall, poking her dual toned head into the cow boil’s room. Oooh, there were other students in here! Two of the students she recognized from Junko’s booth during the Festival, and then there was Mac and Mot! Excellent! “Hello, friends!” She called out. “What are we gathering for?”

That was an apology?
While Mot had not been expecting one anyway, this seemed almost forced, and not sincere at all. Mot stared at Shun in silence. Was he being serious? Truly? Or was he making fun of him? Maybe he really was a bully!
Oh no! Mot was a victim of bullying?
Another blow to his ego.
Mot flinched suddenly as Mac popped in with a booming statement followed shortly by Hel. Mot stared..
...
"Huh?"

Glancing to Mitsu as she whined about his apologize, Shun took in a breath while running a hand through his hair. It looked like he was going to try again, but he stopped as he suddenly heard Mac's voice coming in from behind. Grimacing, he stared hard at the other reaper but didn't say anything. He wasn't really sure what he was referring to anyway.
Turning back to the cowboy, he was trying to gather up his 'nice side' to see if he could get in a real apology. But again, a new voice had cut in just as he opened his mouth.
This time it was a reaper girl whom he had seen at Junko's booth. She had her hair done by the other girl, but aside from that, he didn't know much of her. He just gave her a nod of acknowledgement, then turned back to Mot yet again.
"I'm... sorry," He said quietly, "I got pissed and ended up going after the wrong guy."
He paused for a moment and glanced back at Mac briefly before facing the cowboy. There was some hesitation before he continued to speak. This... wasn't really something he was used to so he didn't really know entirely how to go about it.
"..You're a good guy and you didn't deserve that," he murmured before glancing over at Mitsu to see if she was satisfied with that attempt.

Levi'd meant to drop by the cow boil's room to borrow a heap of hay if he'd had any (it was good for the vine soil) and so found her way into the reaper dorms. Luckily, bouncing through the campus before, she'd seen the boil make his way to his room, so it was somewhat known to her.
When she came to the right hallway, the tatzel noticed the space was looking a bit busy. Was there a roughin' going on? If there was, she didn't want to miss it. With a bounce or two, she landed at the doorway of the cow boil's room and peered around at all the faces already there.
Alright- who's givin' who tha ol' punch n' jab?!

Mitsu tried to urge Shun to try again and it seemed like he was going to but just as soon as he did a voice caught her attention. Turning toward the door Mitsu saw Mac a small amount of tension still lingering at the sight of the reaper. And...what he had said. What did he mean?
"H-hear what?" Mitsu questioned. What did he think he heard? Maybe he was surprised Shun was apologizing?
Turning back to the reaper beside her she wanted to see if he was going to try again. She really wanted him to say something a little more meaningful than his 'I socked you in the gut, my bad' apology. Just when it seemed he was about to speak again though another presence had entered the room.
Looking over Mitsu spotted Hel at the door. "H..hello, Hel." Mitsu greeted the female reaper. She always seemed so lively and friendly.
Then she finally heard it. Shun had actually started to speak. Turning back to him she waited to see if he would say anything else. When he turned to her though after that short apology she tilted her head. "T...that was....better?" Well, it had been. It was better than lining out and reminding the cowboil of all the horrible things he had done to him.

Err…okay. This didn’t seem like a study party, especially not with how…sullen Mot appeared. The reaper was further confused when Shun seemed to be apologizing to the cowboil, and for what? A small frown tugged on her lips as she just welcomed herself into the room now, and moved to stand near Mot, placing her hands on her hips as she regarded Mitsu and Shun. “Hello, Mitsu.” She greeted back cheerfully, but not as loud as she usually was.
Her dual gazed shifted over to the door, as Levi asked about punching and jabbing, causing her to blink. Wait…was…there a battle happening somewhere? Hel rubbed her chin in confusion, waiting to be enlightened about the subject, but not wanting to interrupt Shun and Mot yet.
