Hey, it's Souda.

I'm not here right now, so either Chevrolet's chewin' on my gear again or I'm busy somewhere. If you're callin' 'cause ya need somethin' fixed, you've got the right number! Just leave your name and address after the beep and I'll get back to ya asap!

[Beep.]

Well you just answered your own damn question there, didn't you? She's a better person than the rest of us fuck-ups combined. And besides, maybe...

[For a minute there, his expression softens into something less severe but somehow almost...torn. You had to bring up apologies and Saionji, didn't you? Rather than finish his thought, however, he just shakes his head.]

Never mind. Anyway, just...ignore her if it comes to that. I know she doesn't make it easy but, again, this isn't for her. It's for Nanami. [He folds his arms over his chest.]

After everything she did for us, the least we can do is pretend like we all like each other for a couple of hours so she can enjoy her first birthday party.

[Who the hell are you and what have you done with Kuzuryuu.]

...Yeah, you're right.

[Them trying out another party should be a complete recipe for disaster, but... Maybe Souda was finally getting his bearings here. That paranoia has to go away some time, right?]

I didn't work my butt off just for Saionji to ruin this thing! [He has his own personal reasons for this whole thing, but they're only partially selfish for once. He never had a real birthday party, either.]

She might come in with this weird...thing for her, though. [Can we get passed that? No.] ...Ugh, I'm gonna try my best! But she's hard to ignore, I hope you know! Maybe she'll actually get the hint, too? [We..can only hope, because hell.]

She might. But unless it upsets Nanami, don't you go saying anything about it.

[Please, Souda. For the love of god, hold that tongue of yours.]

If she gives a shit about Nanami though, she should get the hint. And I would guess she cares at least a little bit since the two of them have been traveling together for so long.
