What... I guess that's pretty normal outside of Japan. [ He is desensitized after Australia, even though he doesn't like it. ] But even Yoru and Asuka?
[ HARU!! Just laughs at him, flicking his forehead. ]
You're pretty confident, Haru. It's not that easy. [ Not that he minds. ] You don't even beat me 100% of the time, and I divide my attention between two events.

[ when someone bars you from having something and then you want it more ]
Your team is so agreeable.
no subject
[ Honestly, the Stars would've given him a pool much earlier if he asked. ]
But most of them can swim, so it's not just one person getting use out of it.
no subject
I still don't think most of mine would get one.
[ because they are all assholes. he's over it now because ace can't swim but the point remains. ]
Most of them wear shoes indoors too.

no subject
[ also he spent most of the game thinking ryo was a weird american and not satan ]
I think I'm only going to invite Ace, Strohl, and Rupert to visit us.
[ he likes most of his team but they can stay home. ]
no subject
You can just invite Ace if you want.
no subject
Just Ace...
[ what happened here ]
no subject
Uh, actually. You can hang out with whoever you want.
no subject
...We can just hang out with your team.
Do you want to invite them to Worlds?
no subject
Oh, I bet they'd be excited to see it. [ Would they, though. ] But it means I really have to do well if they're watching.
no subject
he does think the stars would have a good time in the cheering section, actually. even... maybe dante? hard to tell. he pauses. ]
Are we competing in the relay together?
no subject
We're both focused on our solo events. [ Smiles at him. ] Why? You wanna?
no subject
there is a palpable and confused disappointment here, but he plays it cool. ]
...I wouldn't mind trying.
[ yes he wants that a lot????? ]
no subject
Most sponsors aren't really interested in relay performance, you know.
no subject
[ RIGHT.... those are a thing. this shows how much he thought he's given this. ]
As long as I win my individual races, it's fine.
[ it's just that easy ]
no subject
You're pretty confident, Haru. It's not that easy. [ Not that he minds. ] You don't even beat me 100% of the time, and I divide my attention between two events.
no subject
That means I still win against you most of the time, right?
no subject
Most? Since when?
no subject
I don't win 100% of the time. Probably just 90%...?
no subject
You must've hit your head during your last practice run, Haru. For the record, even two years later you can barely do 20 pull-ups without collapsing.
no subject
I could go do more than 20 pull-ups right now.
[ he won't, because he's comfortable where he is. but he could. ]
You're so proud of having... a tiny bit more muscle than me when my times are still better than yours.
[ they are literally on the same team ]
no subject
How would you even know what my latest times are when you're stuck in the past?
[ Huh? HUH?? ]
no subject
I can assume.
[ assumes they are neck and neck forever ]
I wouldn't let you surpass me that easily.
