[ because hawke. ]

Terribly so. [ not. ] And I'm not quite sure yet. On one hand, it's right there -- just for my taking! But on the other... the whole thing is a bit macabre. I'll probably see after his things and then finally find myself my own place again. After all, if my sister were to arrive, it'd be very embarrassing to explain this to her.

[deontology]

Yes, that is likely true. Most people would raise an eyebrow at something like that.

[On the other hand, it's just an apartment??? Sousei doesn't really see the fuss either way.]

[kirkwalled]

Well, I'm not one who likes to draw attention on myself, so I'd rather clean this up as simply as possible.

[ kinda sounds like you're talking about a dead body there, hawke. but okay! ]

Did your partner leave with you too?

[deontology]

You draw attention to yourself by existing.

[Quite frankly.]

Yes, he did. He returned with me as well, for whatever value that has.

[kirkwalled]

And that's enough for me, honestly!

[ geez........ jerk. ]

Weren't you terribly down on yourself when you were parted before? Shouldn't this be something that makes you happy?

[deontology]

[Wow jeeze.]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[Clearly!!!!]

If you are that interested in Tenka, you can go speak with him yourself.

[kirkwalled]

[ . . . ]

Well. Clearly something's happened between the two of you again so I just won't inquire about that. Are you sure you aren't romantically involved with him?

[deontology]

[WHY]

We are not romantically involved! [WHY DOES EVERYONE KEEP SAYING THAT.]

That's disgusting.

[kirkwalled]

[ because you keep reacting this way!! ]

It's not terribly disgusting, Sousei. But it would explain your reaction to him. Surely someone who is simply just a friend shouldn't invoke such strong emotion, right? The only time I see you emote at all is when it comes to Tenka.

[deontology]

It's disgusting. [DON'T CORRECT HIM, HE KNOWS.

And after a short pause, he sighs.]

... Tenka is like family. His parents brought me into his family when I was very young, and we grew up together.
