[ Somewhere around town-- at the bookstore, the Tomoe-Kaname Bakery, attached to posts and notice boards --you find a small white notecard. On it is printed a little message and some numbers in ornate lettering. If you look closely, it reads the following: ]

You already are a loser. You can't sound more like on if it's already the default. [ COLD. ]

That's cute. Did you have anyone back home? I never saw you without your stupid friends and I know the crazy hair girl was somehow dating Koichi...

[pomaded]

Takes one to know one.

[that was so weak]

Hey, Yukako's pretty cool. I didn't like her at first either but...

[It was surprising how quickly they came around to each other once she finally chilled the fuck out; they'd started spending more time together, all four of them in various trios, since her and Koichi started dating. Honestly, it was a relief. How awkward would it have been if there had still been bad vibes between them?

And Okuyasu? Well, they might as well have been dating for all the time they spent together. But that would be weird. You don't date your bro, right?]

Anyway, it's like I said: I wasn't really... you know... looking.

>not dating your bro

Yukako makes it kind of hard to have my time with my friend.

[ He turns his nose up and HUFFS. He's not jealous of Yukako. No. ]

I can see why no one would want to bother. You're dim, you have a temper, your clothes are awful. [ He dodges the ugly hair situation to save his manicure. ]

What about here? You're a moderately okay-looking goblin. [ Insert bit about how his appearance matches his personality, yadda-yadda. ]

I thought you and Nijimura were an item at home.

[ There it is as a footnote. ]

[pomaded]

[Of course that would be his problem with Yukako. Looks like someone never learned to share as a kid.

Josuke gives him a flat look, rolling with the punches as he lists off the variety of things that make him un-dateable. Yeah, yeah, Rohan has no taste- what else is new?]

I told you- haven't met anyone I...

[He stops dead. Did he just-]

W-What?! [Goddamn it, he can feel his face warming up again. Rohan, you need to stop before all of the blood in his body goes to his head, overheats his brain and gives him an embarrassment seizure.] Don't be stupid, no way! He's my best friend! And he's not even... you know...

[Why is he even getting so- so agitated? It's just a misunderstanding, it's not like he's hiding anything...!

STOP THIS]
