[Trivialize away, Levi. Hiro has a lot of conflicting feelings on just about everything with his older brother lately.]

If you think that'll help, sure. I think maybe it's just something I should leave alone for now anyway. We haven't really talked about it and things seem normal enough. [Or as normal as it can get with the two of them.] But he'd probably like to hear from you anyway. You're pretty much his best friend in this stupid place.

[dirtdevil]

[ ...well. he knows Tadashi is his best friend. It's an easy choice for him, and not just because he only has like five friends. Tadashi, though?

he has to ask. ]

Am I?

[zerotohiro]

Are you really asking me, or are you asking yourself?

[dirtdevil]

[ you little shit. ]

I'm asking you. I already know my standpoint.

[zerotohiro]

I mean it's pretty obvious from where I'm standing, so I'd say so. Why? You didn't think so?

[dirtdevil]

[ he's quiet for a moment. does he really have to stop and think about this?

(yes. yes, he does.) ]

I guess I never thought about it.

[ it's been a really long time since he's had a best friend. ]

[zerotohiro]

Pretty mind-blowing huh? [He's trying not to sound amused but...he's also kind of happy for it.] I mean I still don't really get how people decide people are best friends, but this is close enough. Trust me.

[dirtdevil]

[ it actually is kind of mind-blowing. him having friends at all is mind-blowing, let's be real. ]

Okay. I'll take your word for it.

[zerotohiro]

Just don't think about it too much. It is what it is.

...but seriously, check in with him sometime okay?

[dirtdevil]

I will. We talk all the time.

[ and by "all the time" he means "more than other people," of which there are like... one. maybe two. possibly zero. it still totally counts. ]

[zerotohiro]

Cool. That's all I ask. [He's about to say something else when something distracts him.]

I should go. I've still got a lot of damage repair to cover. I'll catch you later?
