umi has feelings for kotori, but she chooses not to tell- she's afraid it would ruin their friendship or that kotori might not feel the same way

i felt like umi would take her time to confess at the right moment and in the right place, but her heart couldn't contain the overflowing feelings she ended up confessing at the most random time possible

at the toilet

🩶: Umi-chan the practice is about to start 💙: Kotori i like you 🩶: ??? 💙: I have liked you since i don't know i like you more than friend if you know what i mean but you don't have to feel the same i just want you to know that i love you it might ruin our friendship but I'm ready for e- 🩶: You're too fast! Can we talk about it after the practice..?

then a long, awkward silence while practicing with everyone on the rooftop. Usually umi would beat the shit out of everyone who made mistake, but umi just head empty no thought. Meanwhile kotori was also absent-minded wondering if what umi said was real

i watch everything at x2 speed but i'm willing to spend my time on slowburn kotoumi 🤤 (i don't draw them often but they're my fav after nkmk and kanamari) (if you followed me for a long time you know I made some kotoumi au in the past)
