[One day he will be able to do proper filters. Today is not that day.]

Question for whoever isn't bored out of their bodies by this place. What kind of things do you do to not be bored? I mean, do you go to hang out at any place in specific or something? Specially when going with someone, assuming you don't spend every time just in each others' houses.

I assume dinner out is a good idea but I'm pretty sure there has to be something else to do in this prison.

[Yes, this is a request for ideas for a date. Hopefully he has worded it in a subtle enough way that no one will notice it. Bwahaha, behold his master plan.]

Don't bother suggesting the library, that one doesn't count.

Rin,

Sorry for not answering your last letter in such a long time. I've spent most of the last month doing missions in an attempt to not drive myself nuts. Anyway I have a question for you: with whom does one have to talk to make a reservation or something where you work?

- Ikki

[This comes later in the day, actually at night. It's earlier than when he usually contacts her to wish her good night, but he knows that.]

Did you go to sleep already, Kotomi-chan?

I don't see how they could tilt that way.

[He's not romantic.]

[That gets an eyeraise.] Oh? You're not that kind of guy?

"That kind of guy"?

The kind that likes girls!

I like girls. But I don't like romance.

Aren't they supposed to go hand and hand?

So you're "that type of guy"?

Hey now. I'll flirt around with a girl since it's fun to see reactions, but I've never gotten serious with one.

Just because you don't get serious with them doesn't mean you don't seem to consider them toys for your enjoyment by "seeing their reactions".

You make it sound like I'm the enemy to all woman! Believe me, I'm not as heartless as you make me sound.

A man who considers women something to enjoy, even if it never gets "serious", isn't an enemy to all women. It's a disgrace for all humans. What's the distance between "flirting with them for fun" and bedding them before leaving without a word the next morning?

[A very short one in Ikki's opinion.]

Heh~ This is why serious types are hard to work with. If it's lighthearted fun, then it's okay. Think about it like teasing and joking around with your friends sometimes. Sleeping with them is taking things to a whole another level. Personally, I wouldn't do anything like that until I have a good and proper relationship with a girl and if she was okay with it.

I don't see the need to play and trample with someone's feelings just to "tease and joke" and have "fun".

And sure you would do that only then, but how long would that relationship last once you get that?

Whoa now. If you just clear things up before they get the wrong idea, then it's fine.

... I don't really know. I admire all kinds of girls, but that person would be my number one.

There's a better way to avoid anyone getting the wrong idea: not doing it.

[And Ikki grunts at the last part, quite clearly thinking that this guy would just go and have many "number one"s if it came to that.]

[Feeling as if he's being JUDGED, but he's used to that. Shrugging it off. ]

That goes against my entire character, you know! It's like telling the main character in a battle manga to not fight at all. Or a dancer to not dance! Or a pirate to not go on an adventure!

How about if I say that if you do that to someone I know and I find out about it I'll kill you? Unless dying doesn't go against your character.

[And he's serious.]

Hmm... Sorry. If I were a minor character, I would be shaking in fear right now. But I can't be dying until I find my little cousin.

[Speaking of which...] You haven't seen a short haired girl with brown hair an ahoge and a decent pair of boobies, have you?

If you were a minor character this conversation wouldn't have gotten so long.

[Whatever, just don't do it to any girl he knows. Namely Kotomi, because he knows Selphie can and will punch you if you hurt her.]

Unless her name is Selphie, no, that's the closest I know that can fit that description.

[And even if she fitted completely she wouldn't be related to you.]

Nope. Her name is Hijiri. I don't know a Selphie at all!

[WELP.] Oh, well... Thanks, anyway! Do you have a name?

Phoenix Ikki, if you must know.

Huh... You don't hear a name like that everyday, but you're clearly Japanese!

As for me, it's Kasuga Arata.

I was born in Japan.

[Let's leave it at that.]

I see you come from there as well then.

Yup. I was staying somewhere else before I arrived, but that's where I was born.

Not sure how I feel about staying here for the long run, though.

Don't tell me you're one of those idiots that want to stay here forever.
