Why not? You can have fun on a team. It's supposed to be more fun than playing by yourself.
[ And if his soccer skills are as amazing as his acrobatic skills, the soccer team will definitely win all their matches. And there is nothing more fun than winning. ]
It is more fun, but only if it's fair. [shakes head] When I play with the kids, I play on both teams. And no one really cares who wins; it's only for fun.
[but...]
I do play to win if challenged. But, only then. If I really must.
Hmm... it seems less fun to play on both teams— the balance would be difficult to strike, and if you're liable to kick the ball towards either goal with equal probability, nobody's going to want to give you the ball.
[ Also, there is no person that exists who doesn't care about winning.
... ]
I challenge you to join the soccer team and help them win all their matches. You really must. You can't refuse.
Oh! [nodnod] Well, a brother can also be a friend!
[... but, maybe this one isn't. hm.]
I will do my best to leave a good first impression! [frowns] Unless he just dislikes everyone at first. I will still try, but it might not work very well.
I don't know... You're bad at answering questions.
[ Which might be okay, considering that if Aniki isn't interested in somebody, he won't bother extending a conversation with questions. But that's the same as dislike, isn't it? ]
...Oh! Show him the teeth trick! That'll impress him.
Yeah it does! You still haven't told me who you are!
[ they still haven't eaten anything
...
they fish one of the sliced lotus roots out of the soup with a chopstick through one of the holes, blows on it to cool it down, and then eats it. There. Their end of the bargain has been completed. ]
I am a hero from an island in the northern seas. I am the tenth in my family to have my name. I am, apparently, a student here, because I woke up here after a friend of mine disappeared. I am dead, but I do not remember it.

What would you consider "interesting," if not all that?
Oh! I know those! They're very lucrative— typically they go for 50,000-100,000 yen, but the price can climb up to the millions depending on how large they are!

he's not wrong, though. Subaru's a very good friend and being compared to him is a good thing, for the most part.

Yeah, he is! Do you know how to play soccer? I think you'd make a good goalie! You'd be able to reach anything!

Alright! I will try out for the team. [and then he becomes a teacher and can't play any sports rip]

[ Who says a teacher can't join the team. ]
You'll have lots and lots and lots of fun— like Aniki when he plays! He's going to be your captain, so you'd better listen to everything he says.
no subject
I will be sure to listen to him, then! [just gonna assume rokkun's name is aniki forever] That must be another good friend!

He's not a friend...

Aniki's my big brother! He probably won't like you at first, he might, later. If you're good at soccer and help him win!

You are very dedicated! Everything you say or do leads you back towards your goal.

Of course! I've got to work hard to reach my goal, so I've got to stay focused! Every little bit counts!
