[ IS THIS THE MARRIAGE PROPOSAL FOR RUINING MY MAIDEN'S VIRTUE BY KISSING ME 1 TIME A MONTH AGO ]

E-eh? Eh??

Aides-kun, I must know....

Are we friends?

Uh?

[YOU CAN'T BE SURE THIS ISN'T A MARRIAGE PROPOSAL]

You may give any answer you like, of course! I simply realized that--just as the hunter does not ask his prey if it wishes to be hunted--I have not been in the habit of asking if someone is my friend!

I, uh- I don't know? W-we definitely have SOME kind of support rank... b-but I don't know how that translates to friendship?

Oh? Could you describe the support rank itself?

We have. Had conversations.

So the ranking is marked by milestones of various sorts?

Y-yeah? Like I guess... you lose a bunch of points for being an extrovert... but then I guess you gain some for saving me from ghost murder... you lose some for breaking into my house... you gain some for keeping me from dying that one time...

Ohlàlà, so it is possible to damage one's support rank as well!

Merci, Aides-kun! That is a rather illuminating answer!

W-why did you ask it all of a sudden?

Ah, it was simply on my mind! There was quite an extraordinary expulsion of emotion just after you left the meeting, you see! --over the difficulty of communicating needs.

This is not particularly relevant to resolving that, only that I wondered whether or not it would be congruent practice to ask after your thoughts about where we stand on friendship, if only because I have not done so, since I thought I would just discover what you felt along the way.

I didn't know you were trying to be friends. I thought you were just like that.

I don't know that it would be inaccurate to say that I am also simply "like this" ...?

I'm not a good friend to have, but we probably at least have a support rank of like... C... plus. C+.

Fufu, the highest would be SSS? In that case, if there are any particular things that would cause a rank down, I would happily hear them so that I can keep it in mind!

T-the highest anyone can get is A! A+ and beyond is like, soulmates territory!!

Ohlàlà, I see! Well one can never be sure when one shall cross paths with a soulmate, so it is good to remain open to the possibility!

[ wheeze ]

C+ i-is pretty good... a-all things considered...

Oui, I am glad for it!

If I am honest it turns out that it is already somewhat harrowing to have my intentions toward friendship acknowledged, so I don't mean that I will be aiming for any particular rank myself.

I-it would be weird to hear you use gamer lingo that much anyway...

As much as your soulmate would?

Uh, that was more of a hypothetical...

Fufu, pardon, please don’t worry. Although I have already seen that games are a wonderful medium for expression, I think I would much rather watch someone else enjoy them than play myself. I shall surely not pick up more lingo than is needed for that.
