[ He has to look back at some point though, at least if he wants to keep reading the screen. And the question that waits for him on the glowing white of the text box just gives him pause. Ouma's same old antics aside...
He hasn't thought that far. And it's not like the other doesn't know it, most likely... Damn it, he's not about to take criticism from the guy who just bolted downstairs as soon as he saw him. ]
I don't know, Ouma-kun. Maybe I just wanted to know you were real.
[ What even is real anymore?
Lost to the oppressive silence, a sigh of exhaustion escapes through Saihara's lips and he sets his PDA aside in his lap for a minute, to rub with weak-feeling fingers at the tired corners of his eyes. He's been waking up so many times in this place (though it seems to have stopped since "graduation") and yet not even once has it felt like he's really slept. Even after everything started to seem chronological again, a desk or the floor of a classroom can't be exactly described as ideal.
It's been taking a toll on him. ]
But now that you are... it might have been easier if you weren't. It's making me overthink.
[ And that's the same for both of them, he knows. ]
