I always put myself in destructive situations [W5, Friday]

[hydrokinetics]

[It took time. Everything took time as it always did. It took time for them to all calm down, it took time to heal physical wounds, it took time to properly remove the evidence of obscene crimes...but in the evening they were able to gather in one place away from everyone else. It hadn't been easy coordinating everything, but it was necessary.

And so here they were. All seven of them.]

...I don't really know where to start. [His voice is tight, but determined.] But we need everybody on the same page. Who wants to go first?

[He just scowls. And might look super awkward now, because he... doesn't know how to handle people...]

[Milla's a very physical person by nature, so she just. reaches out. to pat Shinnosuke's head]

[it works for some people??? mostly people like Yuna and Papika, but whatever!!]

[insincerely]

[SLAPPING HER HAND AWAY??]

What the hell are you doing?

[thatsthespirit]

[well fine!! she withdraws, though she isn't really offended]

Some people find comfort in cuddling or head pats. Papika and Yuna did, and Xion likes having her hand held.

I was simply seeing if you were similar to them.

[insincerely]

Do I seem anything like Papika or—Yuna?

[thatsthespirit]

No, but sometimes outward personalities can be deceiving.

[insincerely]

Yeah, well, you're full of shit.

[thatsthespirit]

[WOW]

[just for that she's gonna try to pat his head again]

[insincerely]

[YOU KNOW WHAT he's walking back to his corner now to get away from Milla (because this will clearly work) (no)]

[thatsthespirit]

[YOU'RE SO WEIRD SHINNOSUKE!!]

[but Milla will let him be. for now]
