poooossibly looking for games. canon is hyouka!

[ there are several things wrong with this situation. if he wanted to, houtarou can count them all off his fingers without needing to pause for breath, but he doesn't, and so he won't, because he's been around chitanda long enough to know that, sometimes (read: all of the time), he just can't win.

(though let it be known that he's already thought of twelve.) ]

No.

[ and still, he tries! if you can call that trying, because he knows his mun, and he knows the terrible, awful, no good places she could bring him to, and he should fight for his salvation, shouldn't he? or something.

Where's the line between fighting and begging for mercy?

quickly--! what would chitanda do? ]

Please.

[ Damn, I crossed it. ]

done....

[coaches]

It's not like that!

[ ehehehehe ]

[conserve]

Of course it isn't. What kind of person do you take me for, to think that way?

[coaches]

[What kind of stunt...]

I don't know, you surprised me. [NOT A PEDO THANKS.]

[conserve]

I guess even active people struggle with being unprepared, too.

[ see what he did there. see it. ]

[coaches]

I never said we didn't, but we accept our failings gracefully.

[Wow, low blow.]

[conserve]

I don't know if you can count that as graceful. [ With that volume and your red hair, you kind of looked like a frazzled rooster. ]

[coaches]

That was a serious accusation.

[conserve]

I apologize.

[coaches]

It's all right.

Who is your friend down there? [The girl, he means.]

[conserve]

[ if it were ever possible to look both flustered and miserable, houtarou is achieving it. ]

...Chitanda Eru. She's the president of the club I'm in.

[coaches]

A love interest?

[JUST ASSUMING.....]

[conserve]

[ THIS FACE, SPITFIRE. ]

No!

[coaches]

Oh, I see.

[Sure, sure.]

What sort of club?

[conserve]

It's... called the Classics Club.

[ don't ask him what they do, because even he isn't still sure yet. ]

[coaches]

Sounds interesting.

I say go for it. I think you have a good chance with her.

[conserve]

Are you giving me relationship advice now?

[ not addressing his probabilities with chitanda. N O P E ]

[coaches]

Why not?

[conserve]

[ turns away with a huff. ]

Not interested.

[coaches]

Have you thought about whether she's interested?
