[Okay but the enthusiasm is possibly more frightening than the idea of Manabu being tired and Grey startles a little at how Manabu perks up. Why does that face and confident swishing give him such a sense of foreboding?]
...Right. Let's do that.
[Swallowing his misgivings, Grey goes to retrieve the box from the bathroom.
Cue hair dye montage from a coming-of-age movie. Grey makes Manabu read the instructions a few times because he does not trust Manabu "Falls asleep in class" Yuuki not to try and just wing it before they open up the box and assemble the equipment. A few bottles come out, along with a flimsy pair of gloves, a brush, and some written instructions that Grey again makes Manabu read a few times just in case.
The next step is for Grey to change into a shirt he's willing to potentially sacrifice, and pick out a towel that might as well be ruined also. (Grey doesn't bother shooing Manabu out of the room when he changes shirts, so enjoy that, Manabu.)
The bathroom, cramped as it is, is picked out for the makeshift salon, and before too long Grey is squatted on the shower stool, towel wrapped around his shoulders, basin full of hair dye beside him, and Manabu Yuuki there to work his best artistic skills upon Grey's hair.
Willing himself to sit as still as possible, Grey says:]
