[universalboy]

I'll find out if you bite me, I guess.

[ Squints up at him with suspicion. ]

[hurricanechef]

Good thing I'm not about to bite you then.

[universalboy]

[ He reaches up and puts his hand on Atsushi's cheek. ]

Yeah, you're WAY too warm to be undead.

[hurricanechef]

Plus I do go out in the sunlight often.

[universalboy]

No way.

[ Takuto takes his hand and puts it in his hair again. A wordless command. ]

[hurricanechef]

[ Atsushi gave him a tilted head look before realizing what he wanted and started to comb his fingers through his hair again. ]

is that hard to believe?

[universalboy]

[ If Takuto was a cat or some other furry animal, he would melt and turn into an puddle. Instead, he closes his eyes. ]

I heard you're an otaku.

[hurricanechef]

Who told you that?!

[universalboy]

En said you like anime and stuff...

[ Long pause. ]

Y'know, for someone who reads a lot of romance and stuff, you don't really see or notice like. Romance around you much. Do you?

[hurricanechef]

Ah... I guess not.

[universalboy]

Eh? Really? I thought people who read or liked that stuff were... y'know, always in a daydreamy haze. Wako would look at Sugata and I with that... haze... sometimes.

[hurricanechef]

I guess I'm a little oblivious if I'm involved in it. I dunno...

[universalboy]

You sure you and En aren't...?

[hurricanechef]

I don't know, I never really thought about it?

[universalboy]

Hmm... well, it's not my business. But that time with you under the stars was pretty romantic. That's why I was... being weird. Sorry.

[hurricanechef]

You don't need to apologize, Takuto. I was happy that you showed me. I feel bad that I made things uncomfortable for you, but I was really happy you came. I think I might have been a bit sad if I was there alone.

[universalboy]

Hmm. I think I'll do something like that for a special person in the future. It was nice.

[hurricanechef]

Wasn't it? I'm sure Kinshirou would be absolutely jealous...

[universalboy]

Friend, or... someone after you?

[ Why else would someone be jealous unless they wanted that Magical Spinach Boy for themselves???? The majority of Takuto's school would be jealous of Atsushi. ]

[hurricanechef]

He's a friend from back home. Actually we've been friends since childhood. Stargazing... it was something we did a lot as kids. [ He laughed sheepishly, his fingers lightly combing through. ]

His birthday would have been a few days ago, so I guess I was feeling... a little homesick, thinking about that. Sappy, I know.

[universalboy]

Ohhhh... well. Let's say we celebrated it for his sake.

[ God. He misses Sugata and Wako so much suddenly. ]

[hurricanechef]

S-sorry. I didn't mean to make this awkward....

[universalboy]

Nooooo, I'm just talking with you! Don't worry about it. Awkward is when I'm in the bath with Sugata, and he tells Wako to join us.

[ His soul is leaving his body at the memory. ]

[hurricanechef]

W-well... you care for both of them so...that's fine, right?

[universalboy]

No! It's totally different! The situation is different!

[ He rolls away and hides his face, scandalized. ]
