'You didn't attract the best types at the Manor either', Ryuutaro thought to himself, specifically thinking back to Temari. But now, years later, he didn't feel bitter about any of that anymore. But with how Hayato's life tended to go, he couldn't help but wonder what sort of bad experiences hid behind this statement. He probably didn't actually want to know. For a moment there was silence again. They had both been 'worried'. Hayato had actually flirted with him just earlier. But it still felt awkward saying anything specific at all. Anything at all. And Ryuutaro thought he was definitely better than this horrible dancing around topics. They hadn't seen each other for years. Now it was time for all or nothing.
Ryuutaro sounded calm, secure and friendly just like always, even though he didn't feel quite as sure of himself as he would have liked to. "So if that is the case, then how would you feel about going out with me today? Although to 'go out' is not exactly possible if the Manor has not expanded again."
It was probably ridiculous to ask about getting back together when they were different people, almost strangers to one another. But one date was possible. Ryuutaro realized that this was the first time he had ever actively pursued someone quite like this. There was a first time for everything supposedly and in this case it really was time.
...I still don't have any icons again oh right damn
