I didn't know you were allergic to physical contact, detective.

[hey?? fuck you???]

Excuse me?

[axilium]

[ :) ]

Or is it just when it's from your partner?

[doublecrows]

[god damn it Eichi??]

Do you like it when people grab your hand without permission and refuse to let go?

[axilium]

Can't say I usually have that problem! I'm almost envious of the close relationship you seem to have with your partner.

[doublecrows]

[GUH]

We aren't. . . close.

[axilium]

He apparently likes you enough to hold your hand.

[doublecrows]

[flushes a slight red. . .]

He prides himself on being able to fluster me. It means nothing, and he knows it.

[axilium]

Isn't it a grade-school tactic for boys to bully the person they like?

[doublecrows]

[evenly]

Neither Tenshouin nor I are grade-schoolers, Belph-san.

[axilium]

Eichi spent most of his life indoors. He might be socially stunted, you just don't know.

[doublecrows]

[why are you like this!!]

Are you enjoying this?

[axilium]

I don't know what you mean. Can't I just be curious in a friend's life?

[doublecrows]

There's a difference between mere curiosity and what you're doing right now.

[axilium]

Maybe I'm also doing it as a favour for Eichi. He was rather disappointed that you wouldn't sleep in the bed with him.

[doublecrows]

. . . just how many people did he speak with about that?

[NATSUO ALREADY BULLIED HIM???]

[axilium]

It came up when we were talking about sleepovers. Apparently you're a killjoy?

[doublecrows]

[hey what the fuck???]

I don't think wanting a bit of personal space makes me a killjoy. At any rate, when Natsuo-san approached me for a sleepover, I did say yes.

[axilium]

Was this before or after he begged you?

[doublecrows]

After.

[. . .]

Which is irrelevant.

[axilium]

Aw, is the detective a softie?

... That or you said yes to get him off your back.

[doublecrows]

[. . . SIGHS!!]

To be quite honest, my upbringing didn't allow me to have things such as "sleepovers" very often. I was hesitant, but. . . it may be time for me to finally experience the things I was denied as a kid.

[aka yes he said yes to get Natsuo off his back]

[axilium]

... You know what? You and Eichi are a match made in heaven.

[doublecrows]

[oh my GOD]

Rest assured, I don't carry those sorts of feelings for Tenshouin at all. That should be the end of it.

[why is his life like this!!]

[axilium]

Unrequited love! How tragic.

... Anyway, none of this changes the fact that you're stuck with him.

[doublecrows]

How tragic. I believe he'll get over it just fine.

. . . and yes, you're right. Our fates are intertwined, regardless of how I feel.
