Summary
"So?" Umemiya asks, taking up the spot next to him where he leans against the wall by the rooftop door. Hiiragi muffles a long-suffering sigh behind the rim of his paper cup.
"So what?" he shoots back.
Umemiya smiles at him brightly, unbothered as anything.
"Have you figured them out yet?"

Summary
"So are you coming to the Ori tomorrow?" Inugami asks, walking backwards in front of him.
"It's not like I have anything better to do," he responds on autopilot, then backtracks. "Wait. Tomorrow? Why not today?"
"Um..." Sako swears he can see the gears turning in Inugami's head. "Tomiyama-san got sick! And Togame-san is making sure he's being taken care of. So we're not meeting today. Yeah." He nods to punctuate the statement.
Suspicious.

Summary
After a few more encounters at varying levels of awkwardness, you bump into someone else.
It's an Elezen man, dark-haired and dressed in an elegant-yet-understated outfit in royal blue and burnished gold. He puts his hands on your shoulders; gritting your teeth in preparation for getting chewed out again, you make to apologise, but the sound of his voice brings you up short.
"Enjoying yourself?"

Summary
Silence drops as quickly as Sakura's heart jumps right into his throat.
"...Huh?" Surely he misheard.
"Like I said, you don't have to! You can just forget I asked!"
Sakura had been prepared for a lot of things, but he hadn't been prepared for this. But no, it's Nirei's birthday, and he wants to give Nirei something—anything—for his birthday, and if Nirei wants a kiss, then on Sakura's honour as a Fuurin student he'll get one, even if he can feel his own face threatening to burst into flames at the mere suggestion.

Summary
A human with round, curious eyes—and fur a startling shade of yellow—bends down to examine her. She's seen this one before, flitting about various places and people in the locale; Nirei, she thinks he went by. Smaller than most of the others, and softer, yet something about his gaze gives her a sense of sharpness that she feels the need to be wary of.
"I feel like I've seen this cat somewhere before," he says, seemingly more to himself than anyone else, then stands back up to his full height (smaller than most of the others, still much larger than her). She backs up a few paces towards the exit. "Wait, what's it holding? Hey, Suou-san—"
Nirei is interrupted by the clatter of the door opening. All heads turn towards it.

Summary
"You're late," he says, simply. He can as much as control their whims as he can bend water.
"Sorry, sorry," Zazie responds, mirth and lack of any real apology evident in the singsong of their voice. "I was just talking with Elendira. I thought you’d be pleased we were getting along."
He’s not sure how to feel. Surprised, maybe. He hadn’t expected Elendira to find a friend amongst Worms—but then, better that than amongst humans. He snorts quietly to himself at the mere thought. Her standards are higher than that; she barely even tolerates the Punisher.

Summary
Sakura knows this look. It's that look that says someone doesn't trust you but doesn't want to set you off. It's the 'walking on eggshells' look. He can work with that.
Until he realises he has no idea how to introduce himself.
Hi, I'm Sugishita Kyoutarou's friend. No. No, he can't say that. For multiple reasons. Hey, I'm the guy who beats that other guy up on a weekly basis. More accurate, leaving aside the part where Sakura gets equally beaten up in the process, but probably won't endear him. Excuse me, ma'am, why has your (presumed) grandson been making me lunch? Absolutely not.
"Uh," he says instead.

Summary
"Can you provide any insight as to what this might be?" With one finger, Suou points at the bento still sitting unopened on Sakura's desk, then the card in Sakura's hand. Nirei blinks at the card, then the bento, then Sakura, then Suou, then Sakura again.
"Sakura-san, someone made you a bento?!"
Sakura throws his arms up in the air.
"I guess!"

Summary
Sakura bursts into tears.
This is perhaps the most alarming part. Nirei can count on one hand the amount of times he's seen Sakura cry and have fingers to spare. But here he is: sniffling and hiccupping as he wipes at his own face futilely, hiding behind his hands, and Nirei feels shaken, as if he's that anxious first-year highschooler all over again.

Summary
He really doesn't feel like entertaining Inugami's whims today, nor putting up with his unbearable levels of energy. He deals with it enough during their time at Shishitouren. But his mother is looking at him expectantly, with a polite smile that is definitely encouraging him to get out of the house and spend some time with your friend, Kouta.
So he sighs and, pulling on a coat, relents.

"...Me?" Nirei questions, pointing at his own face. "Sorry, let me get this straight. You want me to pretend to be your boyfriend for the weekend? For your grandparents?" Sugishita nods curtly—eyes still cast downwards—and any anxiety Nirei felt has officially vacated the premises, leaving only incredulity in its wake. "Why?"

Summary
Sakura picks idly at his takoyaki as Tsubakino and Suzuri belt out nonsense lyrics in tandem. Shizuka, for her part, has picked up a tambourine and is playing along with them, somewhat clumsily, struggling to keep up with the rhythm but giving it her best effort regardless.
It's… fun?
He's still not sure what he's here for.

Summary
Sakura only recently learnt that when you spend enough time with someone, you start to grow accustomed to certain sensations: a hand on your back, a voice in your ear, a tremulous blur at the corner of your vision like a dandelion swaying in the wind. He's learnt that when you grow used to these things, you start to notice their absence more than their presence.
So it's hard not to notice that Nirei has been avoiding him.

Summary
Tomiyama does not like slow people. He does not like to be made to slow down. But something about the casual-yet-methodical way the barista carried out his work gave him pause—took hold of that jittery, anxious creature in him and made it stop, transfixed. He remembers taking note of the barista's nametag: Togame, it said, spelled out in loose handwriting. He remembers thinking at the time that it was somehow cute.
He was 10 minutes late for his lecture and didn't even care. The coffee was good, too.

Summary
By the time the fire finally receded, none of them had made it out unscathed. The burns ran deep—some deeper than others—and would take a long, long time to heal, branches charred and broken. But even after the world is reduced to ash, new life can still grow. In a secluded grove shielded by sappanwood and elm: here, it's possible.

Summary
In his defence: he hadn't known that he was the new trainee Umemiya had been so hyped up about the past few days. He hadn't thought to ask. So when some scrappy-looking upstart with bicolour hair waltzes into the place, mouthing off to everyone in earshot about becoming the Tokyo Shatterdome's next ace pilot… well, what is he supposed to think? That the guy is here to make friends?

Summary
Like oil and water, Matsumoto had once said. Both liquid, yet inherently incompatible, and they were painfully aware of this, had already etched their rivalry onto each other's flesh in the form of blood and bruises. Marks that say "I know you, and I do not accept you."
But given the right conditions, even oil and water can mix.
