[adsum]

[ It was a long time ago, they wouldn't be able to give him an exact year off the top of their head. ]

Oh... No. I've seen him around sometimes, but I haven't talked to him before. He makes me kind of nervous, actually.

[commences]

He can't see you, so don't worry, you can kick his tree anytime you want, and all he can hear is the thump.

( turning hikaru to a life of crime, yep yep... )

What makes you nervous about him, though?

[adsum]

He eats people.

[ Why are you guys friends with him ]

[commences]

And? I believe that's quite useful in the right hands.

( alright, now he's going to look hikaru in the eyes, curious. )

If you could kill him, would you?

[adsum]

No.

[ But they do not meet Komaeda's eyes. ]

It's like when you find a spider in your house and are kind of creeped out by it, but you take a sheet of paper and move it outside instead. He lives in the forest, doesn't he? I bet he'll be happier there.

[commences]

That doesn't mean the spider can't come back to invade, but some people utilize the spider for it's children in order to kill the other creatures within the home...

( i couldn't do it because spiders scare the fuck out of me! that aside, komaeda notices they don't look at him, and he smiles like he's content with the choice they chose. )

I've always seen him here, taking care of this tree... he might not move much, I think he's trapped here... should we set him free?

[adsum]

[ What the fuck, do people let spiders live just to spawn baby spiders to eat bugs, Komaeda's saying it like they'll sneak into bedrooms and kill off a family's kids or something. ]

That would be best, right? Do you know how?

[commences]

( yes, i seen so many tiktoks of people keeping spiders to eat like other spiders and bugs, and i'm like i have a flyswatter for the occasion? )

Hm... I'm not sure, he really likes this tree, and he normally has a mask, but it's gone now... I wasn't there to watch Amami-kun's Amamazing Amaventures when he went toe to toe with the gardener himself!

( he sighs wistfully, such a fangirl. )

He and Tanaka-kun did everyone all on their own... Ultimates are so amazing!

( "there was like 8 more people there" listen, komaeda only believes in ultimates. )

[adsum]

What... did they even do? He's still here.

[ If they fought the gardener then why is he still alive? get your act together, you guys ]

[commences]

Took his mask, and eyes... I guess, and oh, they took his box!

( maybe he's waiting around because he wants his box back or something. )

[adsum]

[ TOOK HIS EYES god, okay, making a mental note to avoid those two from now on ]

What was inside the box?

[commences]

He isn't sure, they need a few keys... We located two, we just need the third one... I wonder if the one who holds the key to my heart has it...

( he DID have a key... )

[adsum]

[ Hikaru going !!! at GOSSIP ]

Who is that?

[commences]

( NOT GOSSIP!! is hikaru a romantic... )

Okumura-kun, I haven't seen him in awhile, though... ( he's not really komaeda's key to his heart, really, komaeda doesn't think anything of him, and so he doesn't sound particularly excited to even talk about him. )

He was kind of boring... generic... but he had a key.

[adsum]

[ Hikaru loves... friendship, yeah ]

Wait, never mind the key. You like him but think he's boring and generic? What do you like about him?

[commences]

No, this is about the key?

( hikaru, get it together, this is about the key??? )

...? I don't like him, I think he's ugly.

( ... )

Not worth my time.

[adsum]

No, it's not.

[ Komaeda, please, ]

That's so mean... Okay, never tell him any of that. Does he like you?

[commences]

We were talking about a box that needs keys.

( please stop, komaeda going to say something mean. )

I hope not, he's ugly...

( ... )

I'm sure he knows he's ugly, that's why he distances himself from others.

( komaeda's ugly too, and that's why he says this so confidently. if you're ugly, you can tell who is ugly around you. )

[adsum]

[ Hikaru stares off at the school like they're mentally apologizing to Okumura-kun in Komaeda's stead, this isn't the kind of gossip they were wanting to hear ]

Let's... not talk about him behind his back. What about somebody you do like?

[commences]

( it's fine, komaeda's lips are pursed into a straight line at the conversation. he just wants the man for his keys, not his looks.

ugh, ugly people... )

... Oh, I like... I like...!! I love...

( places hand to chest with a small smile... )

[adsum]

[ Kinda crying over how it feels like Komaeda's going to mug Yukio and steal his keys ]

You love...? Who? Who is it!?

[commences]

( literally yeah, if he could he would i'm crying... watch out yukio. )

Hope! I really love hope!

( he's genuine about it, and even his cheeks are red... it's honest, and a pure love. )

I love everyone's hope!

[adsum]

[ THAT'S NOT A WHO but it's like the same energy as a child saying they love Christmas so really there's nothing Hikaru can do against this ]

I didn't expect that, but— you right! Hope is a wonderful concept!

[commences]

You wanted a... ( hesitation... ) person in general?

( not a person's hope? he could tell hikaru all sorts of hope — )

There's a lot of hope here that I love, I could give you those names! Hope is really a beautiful essence, it's the only thing I live for! I want to help lots and lots of hope prosper!

[adsum]

I did.

[ gossip's not gossip without specific people ]

What hopeful people have caught your eye, then? We really really could use more of that around here, honestly.
