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!!]
Of course, I'll let you know as soon as I ask [ he pauses for a second and opens his mouth before changing what he's going to say. ] Mashita.
[ yashiki was going to try to use his first name casually, but it doesn't sound right. it's something special so it should only be used that way, right? ]

[ Those words come out without his meaning, but he is somewhat grateful that Travis trusts him that much. ]

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.]

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.]

[even he can manage that. hopefully.]

And he muses over using "partner." He actually does like that since they have always called each other partners to begin with. ]

[ Travis be mean? Is that possible? ]
I was just thinking Kirk also wants to meet him. It is really a surprise... I guess it is like introducing him to my loved ones.
[ He laughs a little. ]

Who knows. Maybe we can meet him together.

He probably would like it all at once rather than one at a time.
[ "Get it over with" sort of mentality sounds like Mashita, yes. ]
