[ Hello, Zawame City, you have a tiny visitor in a cute pink coat and her super cute new boots all but hiding behind your enormous graperider and maybe also possibly she has a hand curled into the sleeve of his shirt ]

This is Kureshima-san's home?

Comments

[grapesofyan]

I couldn't contact you ahead of time. I would've done so. Ah...what was our last conversation before today?

[doesntfallfar]

I haven't seen you since I left that place.

[even if that might be for other reasons]

[grapesofyan]

*Fuck. That's not what I wanted. He bows his head*

And more happened to after that?

[doesntfallfar]

Mitsuzane, you have something on your mind.

[Let's address you first.]

[grapesofyan]

Koyomi-san's not my girlfriend even if what you walked in on looked like otherwise.

[doesntfallfar]

[ ... ]

You're at the age to start dating.

[This is not permission to actually do it.]

[grapesofyan]

I know but that's not what I'm doing with her. I probably won't date anyone for a while actually.

[doesntfallfar]

[You don't even see this internal sigh of relief.]

I was just noting it for your future knowledge, should you choose to bring another home.

[grapesofyan]

Mm. I understand. We're just good friends.

[doesntfallfar]

Was there anything else?

[grapesofyan]

*bows his head slightly* I'm sorry.

[doesntfallfar]

For what?

[grapesofyan]

Everything I've done for the last year.

[doesntfallfar]

[sighs. This is a serious matter to you.]

Why did you do it?

[grapesofyan]

I took my desire to be my own person too far. I was blind. I thought I was just helping others at first but by the end, they were just excuses. I had stopped caring about others, including you, niisan.

[doesntfallfar]

I don't hold a grudge. You looked to have learned your lesson.

[grapesofyan]

Thank you, niisan.

[doesntfallfar]

[ In the future, there might be more talks on this, but nor now it's best left]

Was there anything else on your mind?

[grapesofyan]

Basco came back and it looks like he'll be there for much longer.

[doesntfallfar]

[On one hand, I'm sorry you have to deal with him.]

Basco's private affairs are his own

[grapesofyan]

I know. *And why I'm trying to not pry into about whatever happened with you two* I just don't like him.

[doesntfallfar]

[You're being jealous, Micchi... or yan. either way no.]

I don't particularly like him much either.

[grapesofyan]

*Well aware of that and I might be doing both*

He keeps calling you "Kitten."

[doesntfallfar]

[resists the urge to facepalm]

I have told him numerous times to not call me that.

[grapesofyan]

So did I but he doesn't seem like the type to care. He prefers to do whatever pleases himself.
