[You think he wouldn't? Tadokoro steps closer, leaning in.]

If it's not bad, why are you bein' so shady all of a sudden?

[climber]

Because there's no reason for me to talk about it if you don't know anything. And don't get so close!

[Out of his personal bubble, bear.]

[musclesprint]

[It's a good place to be. But he moves back and crosses his arms.]

But now I know there's a secret you're keepin' from me. Spill the beans, Makishima.

[climber]

[Goddamnit he hates you.]

It's not anything big, it's just... embarrassing. [Like the hundred other events that happened to him recently. But he hast to admit, it isn't as bad as what happened with Tadokoro or even with Toudou so keeping it a secret seems a bit pointless.]

...I was really nice to Onoda.

I hugged him.

[musclesprint]

[There's a really weird look on Tadokoro's face. Makishima actually showing affection? Even the slightest?]

You... hugged him. You?

[climber]

You heard me clearly! I won't repeat myself!

[He'd threaten to hug him but Maki would rather not do that.]

[musclesprint]

[He grins.]

What'd you hug him for? Got all parental on him?

[climber]

Sort-of... I don't know, it was weird. I kept thinking of him like he was my own kid or something.

[musclesprint]

Whoa... that's pretty weird. Maybe you're really getting into your role here. As a good mom.

[climber]

[PUNCH TO THE ARM]

I'm going to beat you up.

[musclesprint]

[LOLOLOLOL]

I wanna see you try!

[climber]

[But he'll break his noodles... B( Makishima huffs before he turns around to leave.]

Get back to work, you slacker. I'm making you ride up the hill with me later.

[musclesprint]

As long as we're not racin', I'm fine with that. [He grins, but just follows Makishima a little.] You want anything from inside before you go?

[climber]

[He stops for a moment and looks over his shoulder, seeming a bit sheepish.]

Something sweet... I'm not picky about what.

[Being surrounded by health nuts makes it hard for Makishima to indulge his sweet tooth very often.]

[musclesprint]

[Sweet is right up Tadokoro's alley.]

Wait right here.

[And he runs off with a box a that's got room for more than just one cake slice.]

[climber]

[Why is that box so big wait no come back here!!]

I only want enough for myself, not something you'd eat! [Makishima follows after him to make sure he doesn't end up going home with an entire cake. Toudou would kill him for bringing back something so indulgent.]

[musclesprint]

Maa, maa. It's all yours.

[He gets no choice. Tadokoro only gives him one slice of... three different types of cake, along with a few rolls, and a small pack of soft cookies. Watch as he adds to it all carefully.]
