[ Has he, though? Yosuke forces his gaze back to the other boy, thoughtful for a moment. What...exactly does this make them?
How does it change how he sees Yu? Yu is...dependable. Yeah. Resourceful, smart, kind of weirdly funny and equal parts frustrating when he gets around to it, hard-working, dedicated, kind...generous. A lot of things. Really, the more Yosuke thinks about it, the list can go on and on. He tries to find a place to shove "kind of gay" in there as well. Does it change anything?
His brows furrow. His best friend...this guy--yeah, Yu's his best friend.
He...he likes guys. In a way that isn't just hanging out on Sunday mornings.
Is Yosuke okay with that? He accepted that Kanji might be. He's okay with that.
Is this...any different? ]
...Really?
[ Yosuke fidgets again, pulling himself out of his introspection to reflect, instead, on the memory. Clearing his mind, trying to push past some of his automatic responses is...difficult, to say the least. Thinking about it--it's weird, it's...it's not what he expects. Is that why it's weird? Because he expects something else? Isn't...unfair expectations what he's always griping on about in regards to adults and kids?
Hm...
But the scene, the uncertainty...that's not a side he's used to seeing on Yu. Not often. ]
I mean...you seemed kinda...I don't know.
[ C'mon, Yosuke. Yu has already seen your shadow. He's seen your secrets, the feelings you didn't want to admit to and he didn't judge you for it. Hell, he'd only known you for a couple of days at the time. The least he can do is show the same courtesy.
Yosuke sighs, slowly, as if giving his mind a moment to let all the words fall into proper order. ]
...It didn't really seem like a happy memory, I guess is what I'm trying to say.
