[he hesitates for a second.]

I like to think so, at least! Wait, no, never mind, he definitely called me his friend at least once. So, yes.

[preowned]

I wonder why we always have to wait for someone to say it out loud...

[agleam]

He's the kind of person who didn't make friendship very easy at first. I'm pretty sure he would have taken, like, another month to say it if there weren't extenuating circumstances going on when he did.

[please be nice to dimitri]

[preowned]

That describes a lot of people.

[agleam]

Oh, yeah, it definitely does.

[PLEASE BE NICE TO EVERYONE ELSE TOO]

[preowned]

They're all...

[ clears his throat, and deepens his voice, ]

I'm not here to make friends.

[agleam]

[he does the same.]

So I'm going to pretend I don't like any of you for roughly three weeks while constantly hoping you ignore the kind things I do and the fact that I clearly crave friendship and human connection...

[preowned]

I will act surprised when you verbally express your like towards me, even though everything you have done so far has implied you think we're friends.

[agleam]

And if you ever say something that's too nice I will literally run away, ignore it or insult you because I'm incapable of taking a compliment or accepting happiness.

[ he clutches his chest ]

This is giving me flashbacks.

[agleam]

Who was it, for you?

[preowned]

Oh! My hostage is like that, actually.

[agleam]

[he pauses]

Can I hear about them? I mean - if it's not too painful to think about right now.

[preowned]

No, it's fine.

[ he never minds talking about these things. ]

His name is Ookurikara. He's also another one of Date's swords, and he's... difficult to get along with, but he is very loyal to those he cares about.

[agleam]

He sounds nice! I mean, maybe not in the traditional sense of the word, but... Loyalty is pretty important, and so is having people you care about.

[preowned]

Yeah. He can be really difficult to deal with, but once you figure out that he is a... tsundere, it's easier.

[agleam]

A what?

[if someone taught him this last game he conveniently forgot]

[preowned]

It's when you are very mean, but get flustered when people are nice to you.

[agleam]

Ohh, I get it immediately.

[nods]

[preowned]

Yeah! He is just like that. It's hard to get to know him, but I can always count on him to stay beside me, even when he's mad at me.

[agleam]

Then we've just gotta make sure we get him back by your side soon!

[preowned]

... yeah.

And yours, as well.

[agleam]

[he pauses, stilling for a moment, before he nods.]

...Yeah. We will.

[preowned]

[ ...

he just ruffles his hair. ]

[agleam]

[he laughs, some of the discomfort from a second ago fading.]

Stop that, you're going to mess it up!
