( it's an idea to call someone by their first name, it makes things all the more authentic. he knows how hinata calls people by their last name, rude without honorifics, and he knows others who would say first names to make it more affectionate than it is — as for komaeda, he keeps a special, but distant relationship by these means, and if he's irritated, he'll drop the honorifics to show that. he respect joshua enough, and that's why he calls to him like he does.
he respects his rights to not be an overly annoying presence in his vicinity, he respects it enough so that he doesn't look more than anything because it doesn't seem like a place for him.
arms cross along his stomach, and he responds: )
But I won't.
( who knows if this is all about comfort values, the though terrifies him actually, the undertones that calling someone by their first name has — it rings bells, people notice, they start to inquire the nature of their relationship. he didn't take joshua to be the type, but he's a rather free kindred spirit like komaeda, but the ultimate dislikes the notion of someone using his first name, and that's because there's a reason he put up that glass wall.
he can't want it, or something bad will happen, even if it's something that sounds nice in theory, to be close to someone that they can equally use their first names, to be friendly... it sounds like a dream, a fantasy he's never known... but in practice that's just...
he blinks, and when he opens his eyes, he can hear the sound of a thump on the floor, joshua's head rolling along the pillows, and then his body falling over. he blinks again, and things are normal, and so he finds himself smiling despite the brief break in reality.
he likes the reality how it is. )
You didn't answer what I asked.
