I had a crush, a deep and strong one, I used to think it really was love... But even before you arrived I had come to realize that it wasn't really love. I care for her a lot, I will always do, and out of all my friends she will always be the one that can read me better and who knows the right words to tell me at any moment. I admire her a lot and want her to be happy... But I didn't really care about doing it myself. And the times she left, though I was sad and I took one specially badly because of how it happened, I always knew I could live on and continue with my life.

... If you left I don't think I could stand it. It may be the only thing together with Minato leaving that would make me want to leave this place immediately.

[He replies honestly, sounding a bit apologetic when talking about the crush part. He tightens his hold on her hand a bit, though.]

And I wasn't that popular, really. If any at all.

[ As if he would have to be apologetic for that - she wouldn't blame him for having liked someone before her, either way. More fish in the sea, after all, and they're both still young, so as long as they have each other now that's okay. She drops that part though, so Keiichi won't have to keep feeling like he has to apologize over telling that, and smiles almost a little deviously at him. ]

A guy like you, not popular? I'm surprised. [ She squeezes his hand a little for a moment in return. ]

Your surprise is irrelevant, you're biased.

[Chuckling a bit.]

[repudiate]

Biased towards the truth.

[ besides, he's just as biased towards her, so she can joke about this - even if she does mean all of it. ]

[breaks_destiny]

The truth has many faces, Ange. Even the biggest and most general ones depend on how you look at them.

[So you're still biased and it doesn't count.]

[repudiate]

[ nudging him in the side a little with her elbow, but she can't surpress a small smile. ]

Just shut up and watch the fireworks.

[breaks_destiny]

Aye, mistress.

[repudiate]

[ She was totally raising the mug to her lips to take a sip from her drink but-- now it looks more like she's choking on it for a moment before she quickly tries to regain her composture. ]

W-- what did I say about encouraging people's weird ideas about us?

[breaks_destiny]

[He just laughs and takes a sip of his own.]
