[THIS IS THE WORST. DID HE OFFEND HIM, HE'S REALLY SWEATING ON THE OTHER END OF THE LINE HERE, so he's just gonna come right out and say it!! In one breath.]
I'm saying I also like guys and I've only ever been with one too so you can't really tell I do either but now I feel like an asshole for judging you!!
[WHEEZE]
N-- never mind! It doesn't matter! We're gonna talk about you again!
I think it's the opposite. [No game recognizing no game...] But whatever. You're, uh, the only person here who knows that, so-- yeah. Thanks.
[It feels good to get it out, but he's jumping back on topic so he doesn't feel like dying from embarrassment anymore.]
So are you and Mashita an item now? I think I only ran into him, like, once... If you're dating or something it'd be nice to meet the guy at some point. [Since Yashiki cares about him and all, it's the least he can do!!]

Yes, but it went fine.
[ NAILED IT. ]

[YEAH IT SURE IS TRAVIS??? But since Yashiki's been willing to be vulnerable with him, it's Travis' turn to get a little awkward about it in return.]
I, uh, never really got that sorta vibe from you, so I assumed you were like me, with... [He trails off.] Never mind, forget it. Good for you, dude.

Yashiki blinks a little at what Travis said. Vibe? What vibe? ]

Yashiki feels more question marks start to erupt over his head. With?
He tries to piece together what it is that Travis is trying to tell him. ]

[ Those words come out without his meaning, but he is somewhat grateful that Travis trusts him that much. ]
2/? yashiki goddamnit
no subject
Do, do I call him my boyfriend?
[ Oh, that makes him feel weird, because it sounds like something from high school and that doesn't feel right. ]

As soon as I said it, no... that wasn't right...

[It's too easy to do so, after all. Travis feels at ease with Yashiki-- trusting him is a no brainer.]
2/3
boy, it's a good thing he's already used to yashiki talking to himself like this lmao]
People use partner too. Boyfriend does sound a little too juvenile for guys our age, doesn't it...?
[and if he brings up 'lover', yashiki will DEFINITELY just get embarrassed.]
3/3
[even he can manage that. hopefully.]
