[while not the request he expected, this one is innocuous enough.
favours are always iffy, when coming from his own mouth, so trusting other people to restrain themselves is hard to do. hiruma has to stifle the smirk that threatens to spread at the thought of giving the poor bastard a crazy 'do.]
We don't have clippers, y'know. We've only got scissors and other very sharp things.
[The way he answers implies he's considered this long and hard before asking anybody. If he could do it himself, he would. Someone he trusts with wielding 'very sharp things' during a considerably vulnerable moment is the next best thing.
Is it stupid to trust Hiruma with his hair and a razor? Maybe.]
I'm sick 'a hacking at inches with scissors. That, I can do on my own. This I need help with.
[Oh-- okay. We're jumping right into it. Jesse is only a beat late in following him out to the living area. So Rose was the one who trimmed his former mane, huh?]
[at the order, fingers thread into jesse's hair--and tug his head back just a little bit farther.
it's to ease the press of closed scissors just beneath his friend's jaw where his pulse sits, the metal chilly. of course, this a hilariously empty threat, made obvious by the way the corner of his mouth twitches.]
Don't get a big head, or I'll misconstrue the saying "a little bit off the top".
[that said, hiruma seems pretty happy to follow the suggestion, choosing locks of hair to snip--it's like harassing a barbie!]
[getting as close as the scissors will allow, hiruma decides to shear away the hair close to the ears first, so the rest he can simply mow down with no particular finesse involved.
once the majority of the hair is gone, it's going to be difficult to get so close to the scalp, but they can overcome that when they get to it.]
You should have indulged in frosted tips. They would suit your personality.
If I had dye, I wouldn't be wasting it on myself either. Not when it'll simply grow out again. I looked like a very ill skunk.
[pushing jesse's head to the side, the distraction slowing his words as he concentrates. as funny as it'd be to just go hell for leather on this and get it done quickly, hiruma really doesn't want to nip his friend's ear with the scissors. god knows they're riddled with tetanus, or something.
they both know hard work takes time, and neither of them are raring to go somewhere, anyway.]
That said... duct tape wouldn't get this much up— there, look, it's perfect!
[standing back a moment, to admire the mohawk with a fit of very manly giggles.]
[A cooperative customer, Jesse allows Hiruma to nudge him in any direction. Definitely not gonna rush him. It's a confusing thing when he begins fussing with what's left--god, that stupid giggling can't be a good sign.
He lifts his hand and feels it out.]
What did you-- oh, nice. I'll go with this instead, real practical.

[shifting aside, he plucks open the nearest drawer and grabs the infamous rusty scissors.]
Nurumi cut my hair in the main area, so the mess was easier for that magical asshole of a broom to find. Get up.
[grabbing a spoke on one of the kitchen chairs, it's hefted, and hiruma drifts out of the kitchen.]

You ever do this before?

No way!
[hahahahahahaha, oh you.

I've taken care of my own before, but with the lack of product for it, it's fucked off. Sit.

I'm gonna end up wearing hats for a month, aren't I?

there's a catch, and a very sudden snip.

Now you'll look like a dumb-ass, should you reconsider.

Get to work, bitch.

I'm shakin' in my shoes.

Can't mess up bald. Or can you?

[Frosted tips. Asshole. He buries a snort and sits patiently while months' worth of hair is snipped away.]
No duct tape this time, a'ight?

Shame you'd just bitch about it.
