[ This is fine actually he doesn't look at his feelings and he's a recluse. ]
No. I haven't had time to care about relationships even if I wanted to. I went on a fake date a month or so ago if that counts? [ We are bending space time for this because he just does not perceive in that direction to a ridiculous degree. ]
Ulrika was cute in the same way Hazuki was, I think. [ This is exactly as awkward as it sounds because this boy literally did not understand why people would find a pop idol in a bikini cute in public. But he's at least come far enough that he acknowledges this is traits they probably have! He just. is so far on the other side. ]
But yeah, you're right there. Even back home I could never be bothered with anyone else beside Amanome cause I was busy.
[ He relaxes visibly with just the slight shift in topic, returning a small nod of his own. ]
That sounds like it would be hell with...all of that. [ He has no idea how to describe what he saw in the memory shards last week, beyond the fact that it was a mess. ]
My best friend. [ His only friend for a long while. Akira sighs. ]
We're opposites in every way, I'm a loner, he's the guy who chats everyone up, I only wear black and he always goes for white, and all of that. But we're both...screwed up people so we get each other, I guess.
I've tried to tell him but he just goes on about how he has to at least pretend to pass for an upstanding citizens sometimes. [ A beat. ] He's the heir to one of the biggest yakuza families, though he's not officially a member yet.
[ He raises an eyebrow and there just might be the edge of a smile on his lip. ]
You're about ten years too late for that. We're friends cause I knocked him on his ass in primary school and he decided that meant I was fun to be around.
