[ Tell that to him for a change, he thinks, but similarly doesn't voice it out loud before he follows Oikawa back to the gym. If they chat there Iwaizumi might kick them both out and they'll never get any sleep tonight.
Hmmm.... if Iwa-chan wasn't here, would I want him here with me?
[Aha. Its a selfish answer and for a long moment, he stews on it. It's bad that his answer is instant, isn't it? What kind of friend is he, ahahaha...]
Truthfully? [Hhe almost doesn't want tosay, and it shows in how he hides his face in Rin's hair.] Yeah. I'd have to say yeah. I'd still want him here.
Do you just have keywords you say and he gets mad, or is it a continuous stream that crawls under his skin? That's so bad that you would choose that....
Mm. So don't feel like you're bad, for wanting to see your Iwa-chan.
[He says it gently, understanding even if he doesn't know the full context; there's no way he could know or understand that much with as little as he knows. It still feels heavy, the way Rin tries to chuckle - so Oikawa just rubs his face into blond hair before shifting back enough to comb it back and look down at him.]
You're just like anyone else, you want familiar faces. Like, if we're trapped here for longer than we could even think about now, you'd want at least a chance to say something. [Apologies for dumb things. Thanks, for being there up until the moment they parted.]
[ Just like anyone else... Such a statement doesn't feel like it should be true, though Rin hardly thinks of himself as anything close to special, as that might make it seem. ]
I don't deserve to see him again. [ It's barely a whisper, maybe too quiet to be heard, but Rin's tone wavers and he feels suddenly too vulnerable, pulling away from Oikawa so he can sit up, arms wrapped around his knees. ]
I... Let myself think I'd be able to, even though I know it's impossible, or it's supposed to be. [ Dead people don't come back normally, after all. He heaves a sigh, low and distinctively sad. ] I was being stupid. I don't even get why I'm talking about it.
[Oikawa hears it even if Rin speaks it far too quietly, like he doesn't want to be heard; he lets him up though, even as he props himself up on an elbow in following, he listens as Rin finishes.]
You don't deserve to be miserable though either, Rin.
[He says it lightly, even if he knows that once again he seems to be missing a piece of the puzzle; he can make enough of a guess. Reaching out again, tugging Rin with his knees up and all back down into curling into him, Oikawa tucks that blond head under his chin.]
You can talk about it just to get the idea out. I'll say I make a pretty good soundboard, even if you aren't looking to say anything in particular though, okay?
[As far as he's concerned, he shouldn't be the one reaching out to Oikawa..!
Probably. Sure, they're friends, experienced some death defying shit together, played on the same team (lol) and generally speaking, Yosuke's spent more time with him than anyone else here.
And all of that's precisely why he's bothering to text. It'd get awkward otherwise. Fighting with friends isn't something he likes to do anyway.]
[It's been hours of Oikawa sitting in the cafeteria half-heartedly picking through some of the pile of food that was left on the tray and avoiding the puddings and it's just easier to stay sitting over here and think about what he's really done; he may have just been playing, but honestly, no one really tolerates that kind of endless harassment. No one should, even Iwaizumi gets to a point where he just slaps him in the head.
So why was he expecting Yosuke to just bear it?]
Sure am!
[Ah, he should type more, but with that already sent, Oikawa stares at his phone for about ten seconds longer before he can get his fingers going again, ignoring some of the locals who look at him when they pass - he has an awful lot of food for one guy on that tray still.]
[Oikawa's just hoarding food in case of a government shutdown, everyone.
And he sounds way too happy in his text. Not to say he expected anything less; it's not like he said anything particularly mean to the guy, he just..left. But still! He's bothered and in the process of sending him some pissy chatspeak in response when...
Oh, he's sorry. That's...totally throwing him off his game. He backspaces his message entirely and sits in the quiet of his nondescript, vacant classroom.]
that wuz embarissing evry1 saw U acting stupid
[Just in case Oikawa didn't know what he was apologizing for.]
