[There's been a series of deep, rumbling bangs and tremors echoing from one part of town today, and the skyline in that direction's looking a little sparser than it did the day before. And-- that building suddenly lurching then crumbling downwards in a blaze of pale blue prrrrrobably isn't anything to worry about, right?

If you go to investigate you'll finHOLY CRAP BRS just blasted a building to pieces in front of you look OUT]

Don't worry!? What if Black Rock Shooter hadn't been there in time? Besides, protecting you should be my responsibility.

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't have to protect me, Mato.

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

Why not? Out of the two of us, I'm definitely the tough one.

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

That's true, but still...

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

There's no but still! I'll work out every day, until I can lift up any buildings that fall on you.

[ looks like she's about to protest, but her expression ends up melting into a smile ] Thank you, Mato.

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

You just have to be safe, okay? We're not as tough as the robots, so we have to stick together!

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

Okay. That shouldn't be a problem.

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

[ ] Um... I've decided to tell you something.

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

[ ... blinks ] Go ahead.

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

I... to be honest, when I said that I wouldn't get a boyfriend so we could keep being best friends, I wasn't exactly telling the truth.

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

[ an unexpectedly long pause ]

... Oh?

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

That's right! The real reason is because—um, that is... [ ]

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

I forget how this was supposed to go.

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

[ looks at her, confused ]

... I don't ...

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

[ ]

Mm?

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

Do you have a boyfriend, Mato?

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

Wh-what!? Where'd you get that idea?

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

[ looking more confused, as well as kind of embarrassed ] W-well, because you said...

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

I said that there's a different reason for me not wanting to get a boyfriend!

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

Th-- then what is it?

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

It's—it's because there's already someone I like! Even if I went out with all the boys here, it wouldn't mean anything. So there's just no point in trying!

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

... There is?

[starsigil.livejournal.com]

There is!

[littlebirdsplay.livejournal.com]

Why didn't you tell me...?
