“I'm scared, but I’m less scared around you.”
family starters / not accepting
❛ huh ? ❜ where did that come from ? she doesn’t think she did anything to warrant such a comment. even so, she appreciates yuki’s honesty. and she feels similarly, though she never lets it show outwardly. she knows how anxious the boy is, especially around other people, and he often likes to be left alone. the fact that he’s willing to spend time with her is quite telling. asuka has never had a sibling, but she figures that yuki is as close to a brother as she will ever get. the two are polar opposites, yet somehow their interactions are always positive, usually resulting in asuka’s laughter and, evidently, yuki’s own comfort.
❛ hey, there’s no need for that. don’t get sappy on me, ❜ she laughs, throwing her arm around his shoulder loosely. she gives him a gentle shake and then relinquishes her hold, taking that opportunity to ruffle his bright red hair ( so similar to her own -- they truly could be biologically related ). ❛ come on, last one home’s a rotten mackerel ! ❜
