[ Early in the evening there's a knock. ]

Kisumi-san. Are you there?

Comments

[kissyou]

[That sounds really weird already, but let's chalk it up to weird camp shenanigans.]

What happened in the library?

[readingreinbow]

I called Nagisa-kun a creep and accused him of stalking me. I was really angry, and very rude.

[kissyou]

[This is terrible.]

Why were you being that way?

[readingreinbow]

I don't know! I couldn't remember who he was, it was like I'd never seen him before. But... he forgave me for that fairly easily.

[kissyou]

He's been here long enough to know it was probably camp that did it to you.

[readingreinbow]

Yeah, probably. But that's not how I ruined everything.

[kissyou]

Okay okay. Put your pajama's on first, let me set something up, and then You can continue, ok?

[And by set up, he means actually put out the snacks he swiped from the mess hall and flop down into his bed.

The zombies are shambling and doing their own thing, uninterested]

[readingreinbow]

[ He hasn't quite gotten used to having zombies around, but as long as Kisumi is okay with it. He changes clothes without much thought, like someone who gets naked in front of other people regularly. ]

I felt so bad, I just wanted to apologize to Nagisa-kun. He kept telling me not to, but I couldn't help it. I didn't know what else to do.

[kissyou]

Because Nagisa is important to you, right?

[readingreinbow]

Yes. He's probably my closest friend. Which is why it's going to be hard for him to forgive me kissing him.

[kissyou]

[paydirt]

You kissed him? Rei has feeling for Nagisa like that?

[readingreinbow]

I don't know. He was saying such nice things, and he was lying in my lap and... it just got out of hand. You should have seen the look on his face, I'll be lucky if he ever forgives me.

[kissyou]

Okay, so tell me right now. Without thinking about what happened.

How do you feel about Nagisa? What's being around him like for you?

[readingreinbow]

[ He's already been thinking too much about it. ]

Nagisa-kun is my friend. And I don't want to destroy that friendship, it's worth more to me than anything. But he's not like anyone I've ever been friends with before, and maybe being physical with people is just how he is? I want to be around him, and I want him to be the same happy, bubbly person he is. But I might have ruined all that by thinking he was interested in me! And for being selfish.

[kissyou]

I don't think you have a lot to worry about, personally. Nagisa is a great guy and I don't think he'd ever hold it against you. He knows you and how you are. He's been with those people for so long I know that he must also feel that deep friendship he doesn't want to lose as well.

Heh, but I only just met him in December.

[readingreinbow]

Thank you for talking with me about it. I think Nagisa-kun will forgive me for this time, but I probably shouldn't let it happen again.

[kissyou]

I think you should actually talk about it. Maybe he wasn't catching the right signals.

[readingreinbow]

If he's still willing to talk to me, of course I will apologize. I never should have surprised him like that.

[kissyou]

I think you're overthinking all of this. He's going to talk to you, and he's going to forgive you. I don't think he's ... really seen your actions for what they are.

Truth be told, a lot of this team is comprised of people who need to be hit over the head with a cluebat.

[readingreinbow]

What do you mean by that?

[kissyou]

Rin didn't realize Sousuke's liked him for their entire lives.

Makoto didn't seem to understand he meant anything back in middle school... [sighs sadly. Let's move on.]

Haru doesn't always catch on to the thought and intentions of other people around him. [or in general but eh]

You see?

[readingreinbow]

I suppose. But I didn't think I had that problem.

[kissyou]

Maybe Nagisa does!

[readingreinbow]

You think?

[kissyou]

He's been exposed to Rin and Makoto too long. It's infectious.
