Nnnnnnope. This room is a guilt-free zone. You're not allowed to blame yourself for choices other people make here.

[bakaomi]

[ ugh ]

You should put a sign up.

[divus]

Ooh. Good idea!

[he snaps his fingers. there's a sign there now.]

[bakaomi]

[ ... ]

I don't know what I expected.

[divus]

I don't know what else you expected either.

[bakaomi]

That's not going to stay there, is it?

[divus]

Maybe it will! You might not be the only one who needs the reminder.

[bakaomi]

What are you, a motivational speaker?

[divus]

I kind of had to be, back in my old world. Old habits die hard.

[bakaomi]

Hm? How come?

[ at first glance he seems more

free spirited isn't quite the word, but... ]

[divus]

Do you have any idea little self-confidence a bunch of otaku girls have? Trust me, it's not much.

[bakaomi]

You hang out with otaku girls....

[ somehow, he didn't expect that. ]

[divus]

One of 'em is a jellyfish otaku. She gets so fired up talking about them - it's way more interesting than listening to someone ask me for hair and makeup tips.

[there is



definitely a little fond smile on his face]

[bakaomi]

Oh. That explains the jellyfish.

What's her name?

[divus]

Tsukimi.

[bakaomi]

Tsukimi...

[ hm ]

What's yours?

[divus]

Koibuchi Kuranosuke, at your service!

[bakaomi]

Shishimaru Takaomi.

[ there, they're properly acquainted now. ]

[divus]

Nice, a formal greeting.

[bakaomi]

... you don't have to comment on it like that.

[ NO ONE ELSE DID ]

[divus]

What, isn't it good to comment on nice things?

[bakaomi]

Now it feels weird.

[divus]

It's only weird if you make it weird, Takaomi-kun.

[bakaomi]

Or if you make it weird.

[divus]

I'm not the one who decided it's weird.
