	"Talking sounds nice if there's something you want to talk about." Maeko said, still clutching the cat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I don't really know, Maeko-chan. Do you have something you want to talk about about?" He asked, looking around for a seat. "I don't really have much to talk about, so..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maeko finally found a bench and sat down, waiting for Kanaye to join her. "I don't either, really..." She thought. "...Oh, I talked to Aoi about it. She thinks it's Retsu." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Kanaye sat down behind her. "That was my second guess but I still wouldn't put it pass Misaki. Well, third, but I talked to Kiriko and Kozue and they think it's Gendou too, so..." He shrugged. "Dunno why he would want to spread something like that, and NOW of all times. I mean, saying he slept with someone like you might be a good thing but admitting to corruption..."

	"It's...I suppose I'll talk to him about it. It's not like he'd admit but..." She sighed. "I'd like to believe it's him." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-01-13 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	Kanaye nodded. "Do you want me to come along? He might get...defensive. I have no doubts that you're stronger then him, I'm just..paranoid. But I won't go if you don't want me to!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I should be fine, and I'd prefer to talk to him alone. I guess if you're worried you can, I don't know, just be in the general area?" Maeko shrugged, thinking. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-01-13 11:52 pm UTC (link)
	"Thanks, Maeko-chan. I'll do that." Kanaye smiled. "I know you can take care of yourself, but I'm still worried. I don't want my friends to get hurt..." He trailed off. Never again... Kanaye sighed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maeko thought. It really would be way easier if Gendou was to blame. She could deal with fighting him. She tapped one geta against the ground again, the sound they made was kind of novel. But she caught the sigh. "You okay?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm fine. I just...didn't really like Obon. It's too...depressing. And too focused on death..." He sighed again. "Not to mention Renju's place..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-01-14 12:24 am UTC (link)
	"Oh. It's not really about death, it's more about celebrating how greatful we are to people who are now...we don't have to stay here if you don't want to. We can always go somewhere else." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-01-14 12:28 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, but..." Kanaye laughed. "I'm actually enjoying it now. I guess I was just...I don't know, but..." "Thanks, Maeko-chan!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-01-14 01:44 am UTC (link)
	"I don't mind either way. We can stay if you want to but if you don't then that's fine, too." She thought, sighed, and turned to Kanaye. It was going to be bugging her forever if she didn't ask now. "Senpai? Can I ask you something? ...it's kind of." She stopped before she said WHAT it was kind of. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	zealousemperor 2010-01-14 02:17 am UTC (link)
	"I don't mind either, Maeko-chan!" Kanaye laughed. "We'll just stay, eh? Less effort involved in moving!" Kanaye was confused. "You can ask me anything, Maeko-chan." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Okay..." Maeko kind of thought this was the kind of thing that was better not brought up somewhere so crowded. Still, it had been her idea.

In an uncharacteristic display of thoughtfulness, she pressed a hand on top of Kanaye's, just in case she was right. Of course, the motion probably only cemented the gravity of what she was asking.

"Way back. When we were talking at Kigakiga. ...was he the same person?"

Kanaye was confused about why she was putting her hand on him. Briefly, he thought if the question was "will you take me back"? He wondered why. he shouldn't expect her to change that much, after all, especially so quickly. Maybe she just really likes cats? Kanaye had no idea.

...Oh. Oh dear. Kanaye sighed. He should have been expecting that, but...

"Yes." Kanaye sighed again. "It was him. It was me..." Kanaye sniffled a bit. "I did it, ok? And it wasn't like Misaki, I actually did it! He..." Kanaye held his head in his hands.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked, but..." She fidgetted.

"It's- You don't have to." She sighed, paused, tried to accept that really, there was nothing she could do to fix this sitution.

And then, despite being convinced that this was totally unacceptable, she placed the cat toy down and gingerly wrapped her arms around Kanaye and leaned against his back in an awkward sideways-hug-thing.

"It's-" She tried again. Words were still not cooperating. She squeezed instead.

	Kanaye just leaned into Maeko and stopped crying, thought it was clear he was about to bawl any minute now. "No, just...hold me..." Kanaye knew he sounded pathetic but that's never stopped him before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-01-14 03:41 am UTC (link)
	Maeko did, rearranging herself to make the whole thing less uncomfortable, the original hug hadn't been something she expected to hold for more than a few seconds. Not entirely sure what to do here, (this was unacceptable. but letting go and leaving would be unkind.) she held still and waited for Kanaye to react again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Kanaye leaned back, still rather depressed. "I'm sorry to make a fool of you, Maeko-chan." He stood up and started to walk away. "Thanks for listening anyway, Maeko-chan. Hope you have fun." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Sen-" Maeko cut herself off, having to put effort into referring to her ex-boyfriend by given name. "-Kanaye-san."

It sounded awkward and forced and lacked any of the impact she thought should be associated with using given names. Maybe she should have used a different honouriffic.

Too late now, and she continued speaking to Kanaye's back.

"It's not your fault. If saying something was all you did you're no more guilty of anything than I am."

...Did she just call him by his first name? Sure, the "-san" was a bit formal but it was still a giant leap. It definitely made him feel slightly better. He still felt like crap, but...

He turned around and sighed. "I guess so, but he actually DIED this time, Maeko-chan! Not some stupid lie. It was the truth!" Kanaye smiled. "I thank you for being here, though. It means a lot of me, Maeko-chan."

"I- it's probably hard. I'm sure it's hard. I wouldn't really know but."

She had no idea how to word this.

"It's...if he hadn't died then all it would have been was that you said something stupid that you didn't mean, right? Just because he did...doesn't mean you did anything more. It makes it harder but it doesn't make it your fault. I don't mean to make light of it but..."

She trailed off, once again clutching the cat as she spoke.

	"...I know it's illogical, but..." Kanaye shook his head. "I did do it." "Maeko-chan, thanks, though. I know I'm too stupid to see thing's logically, but..." He smiled. "I'm glad you're trying to cheer me up. You're an amazing girl, you know that, Maeko-chan?" Kanaye walked forward and put his arms around Maeko. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	giantfruitbyday 2010-01-14 05:13 am UTC (link)
	Okay. It was okay. It was helping. Or something. And that made it acceptable. Maeko put one arm around Kanaye, the other still being used to hold the cat. "I know it's a stupid question but..." She sighed. "Are you going to be okay? I didn't mean to bring it up..." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
