[that's a complicated one.]

... Well, you just proved that people probably think White's my real name. If I say it's not, they're going to wonder why I went by something else in the first place.

[enfangs]

[you and your LOGIC]

... Doesn't change that you're embarrassing!

[sengokus]

[ . . . . ]

Related to what you did before?

[his criminal job?]

[sengokus]

I haven't even done anything you can name today!!

[enfangs]

... Sort of. [a beat.] They were the ones who called me White, and I had no reason to argue since as far as I knew, I didn't have a name anyway.

Didn't learn that I did until pretty recently.

[the only gift the parents he never knew left behind.]

[enfangs]

Then it's in preparation of tomorrow!

week 3, wednesday.

[enfangs]

[white's leaning against a wall, flipping through a... book? (a non-comic book? wow) whenever mineo happens to pass by. looking up, he flips it shut.]

Hey, Mineo. Did your phone go off today?

[sengokus]

[he's uh, getting water. i'm gonna be honest. he doesn't look that great. he does not seem to acknowledge any of these things he just wants to make it to the vending machine]

Huh....?

[he frowns in confusion]

Oh... yeah, something about confessions?

[enfangs]

Well, that too. But I meant something else.

[he holds up the book.]

I got some kind of... reward? Also, what the hell's wrong with you now?

[sengokus]

[he tilts his head]

Reward...? Like the items we got before? Or - did you not get one yet...

[he's getting his bottle of water though and making a face]

We went on our investigation last night and I'm still kinda woozy I guess.

[enfangs]

I got something from back home. That what you mean, or something else?

[waves the book]

What the hell happened?

[sengokus]

[he tilts his head]

Is that your first one...? I got a book last week too.

[he pulls it out of his back pocket. 100 Heart-Jerking Love Confessions. no i'm not joking that's literally the book.]

Ah.... some of the mold from the MRI machine knocked me off my feet when I went to test it out - it was worth checking but it was still a pretty risky move... Gojou-san ended up having to catch me 'cause I couldn't keep my feet.

[enfangs]

Yeah, I never got anything like that. Also, what the fuck is that book, dude?

[there's no title on white's book.]

... Geez. Be more careful, idiot.

[sengokus]

[he waves a hand at that - tired but functional] I'm alright, don't sweat it....

Ah... Then it's related to how much you indulge. I guess you just gotta nap more, White-kun.

[ALL OF MINEO'S INDULGENCES ARE SO STUPID]

But it's my favorite book!! It's got a bunch of cool lines in it! [TOTAL NERD]

[enfangs]

[he just

stares at mineo so tiredly]

Maybe you're the reason we have this weirdass rule now...

[sengokus]

[PLEASE STOP BLAMING ME IC AND OOC FOR THIS

he just laughs at that though]

'cause the rest of you are so awkward about your feelings?! I guess. I'll take responsibility for it.

[enfangs]

[he looks away, apparently flustered and probably proving mineo's point right now.]

We're not awkward! You're just embarrassing.

[sengokus]

You're awkward.

[but he'll take another sip of his water and go to sit on the kitchen counter]

It's cool. I like you anyway.

[enfangs]

[he freezes up for a moment, before he opens his book again and goes back to flipping through the pages, barely reading them.]

... T-That's 'cause you're an idiot. [...] What do you think happens if we don't do as it says?

[sengokus]

Something embarrassing probably....

Is it really that big of a deal? Are you not gonna do it?

[enfangs]

[...

he just shrugs.]

[sengokus]

[hmmmm]

Well, if you wanna confess something to me, I'll keep it a secret?

[enfangs]

[well

he goes still.]

[sengokus]

[ . . . . he tilts his head]

White....?

[i forgot he's dropping the honorific now just assume that's been the case]

[enfangs]

[does not look at mineo in the eye]

You won't want to hear it.
