[ i mean. just follows them sheepishly and waits by the door. ]

[makoto laughs sheepishly at the attention he's getting from the nurse, even as he's being told to sit down on a stool to clean him up properly and look him over. to the side, he gives a thumbs up to rin and nitori.]

[i'll be fine now. please don't mind me. you two talk, is what he's encouraging, as the nurse asks him hundreds of questions and he tries to avoid putting the blame on anyone for his nose.]

[Rin watches Makoto and the nurse until that really embarrassing thumbs up, and then makes a quiet tch noise, looking away]

[oh hey sup Nitori]

Oi, stop cowering. It's fine now, isn't it.

[ weh. he knows that tch is supposed to be comforting or something, but that won't do it rn. nitori shakes his head. ]

There was a lot of blood. It must be serious.

[ blurts out his worst fear before he can stop it. ]

What if he can't swim?

Noses bleed a lot. He's fine.

[oh but he didn't think of that]

...If he can't swim, you should do something to make it up to him.

[ SO YOU AGREE IT MIGHT HAPPEN? ]

L-Like what?

Clean the pool? Carry his bags? Make him lunch?

[nOISY]

I don't know. He might need help with Captain stuff.

[ -- ah.]

[he should probably catch Nitori up to speed on the important shit]

-- I'm on the team. It makes sense, since there's not that many of us.

[yeah that's why]

But I --

[ wwait what ]

[ his eyes widen. ]

Senpai is not in the Samezuka team anymore?

[ oh god did he just blurt that out. ]

... I- I uh, I mean, of course.

[ shakes his head to keep stupid thoughts at bay. ]

It's the only way senpai can practice here. I understand.

[that was awkward and sort of painful]

...Oi. Don't get it wrong. There's no choice but to attend Altaciere, right now. I'm not giving up on Samezuka.

I'm making sure I stay good enough to deserve swimming with our team.

[it's amazing to swim with the guys from Iwatobi every day, but... Samezuka is going to take him to the top, and he's not going to take his team for granted anymore]

[ sorry!! he didn't mean to make it weird. ]

Of course you'll be good enough, senpai! Please don't say things like that.

But naturally, in order to keep your times good, constant training is a must. You couldn't do that all by yourself. Joining their team was a great idea, senpai.

[ even though it kind of makes him sad. how glorious had it been if it had been just him and senpai, rebuilding Samezuka together? u_u ]

... Altaciere? That's the name of the team?

That's the name of the school we're in right now.

[snorts a bit]

You really rushed into things, here.

[he admires the energy, if not the execution]

[ he'll be going to the same school, right? right?? ]

Y-yeah, I ran too fast.

... Um. The other guys are here too, right?

Nanase-san?

[ he didn't see him in the class. ]

[singling out Nanase-san is enough to make him internally flustered; of course Nitori (of all people) knows how important Haru is to Rin, went through all that crap right next to him, and that's sort of embarrassing that he would ask after him specifically, but it makes sense, too]

Yeah, Haru's here. And Nagisa. Off of Iwatobi's team, only Rei -- uh, Ryuugazaki, isn't here. Before you, I was the only one from Samezuka. Captain's not here, or any of the other guys.

[ it must be so great to be able to swim with them again. nitori's so happy for him. ]

I see. It's a shame Captain's not here...

But I did meet Hazuki-san already!

["Hazuki-san" he's the same age as you Nitori and a total shitlord]

Yeah?

[...app...rehensive]

I believe he lives in the same house as me.

[ being roommates with one of senpai's friends? that's cool, right? ]

[oh, no]

[oh god no what shit fuck]

Ah...

[MY HEART IS BEATING A MILLION MILES A MINUTE]

So you're roommates with Nagisa now.

Yes!

[ is it ok? he can always come live under your bed. just ask. ]

[shit fuck damnit shit fuck fuck fuck]

...Don't tell him unnecessary things. He's nosy.

Huh?

Like what?

[oh my god]

Like...

[ALL THE EMBARRASSING THINGS YOU KNOW ABOUT ME!!!!!!!!]

...personal things. Roommate stuff.
