[wow, she's going to cry again, and she just stopped. that's how much she needed to hear it, even if she still thinks it would eventually get annoying.
She laughs a little, to try and hide the other emotions, since there's just... so many, and she needs to pick one of them.]
You're really sweet, Minato. I can see why Akira likes you.
[... Ha. Minato looks a little bashful at that, dipping his head--but he knows when it's time to stop pressing and let someone get their metaphorical feet back under them.]
That's not fair, you know...it's a little embarrassing when you put it like that. [Makoto's cheating.]

[Firmly, though he knows she doesn't want to.]
Never from you, Makoto.
[He will tell her until the end of time that it wasn't her fault, if that's what it takes to convince her--and he'll be glad to do so.]

[she wants the deets, now that the tables are turned? let her focus on him, at some point, as they draw closer to her room]

So, he'll roll with this.]
Mm, well... Akira and I...
I do know he likes me, but it's kind of embarrassing to hear someone say it that plainly.
no subject
[also stated frankly.]
If Ryuji were here, he'd be a lot more vulgar about it, so you'll have to be prepared for some embarrassment.
no subject
Akira's not a very subtle person.
[He's charmed by it.]
And... well... I guess I can handle that. It'd be worth it to meet all of Akira's family.

[she pauses]
Just don't be scared of Haru, okay?
[that's mysterious oh hey look, her room]
no subject
Um...
I'll do my best.
[PROBABLY...?
Oh look, Makoto's room.
He pauses when they reach the door properly.]
... Are you going to be okay tonight, Makoto?
no subject
But her grip tightens on the tray a little at the question, instinctively.]
Yes. With friends like you, I think I'll be fine.
no subject
If Makoto's feeling even a little better, then he's satisfied.]
Mm...okay. I'm glad, then.
[And, softly:]
I'll let you rest. Take care tonight.
