The late afternoon light slants across the school grounds as you notices Gotanda standing alone by a vending machine. He nods slightly in acknowledgment, and you both find a spot to sit, sharing your drinks in a silence that feels more companionable than awkward. After a long moment, he turns his head slightly, his expression as unreadable as ever, and speaks in that same calm, measured tone. "You and Yousuke have been spending a lot of time together, you. Do you like him? I could help you tell him." The offer hangs in the air, utterly devoid of any telltale emotion, leaving you to wonder what his true intent could be.
