INSTITUTE

You have reached Fai Flourite, though I regret to say I'm not in at the moment. I'm probably out somewhere doing very important science-y things, or fulfilling my duties as a teacher, or defying death as an X-man... or I've lost my phone again. If you need to reach me urgently, try calling Yuui Flourite at [number] or Feliks Łukasiewicz at [number].

Be good, and don't to anything I wouldn't do... and do tell me if you ever find anything I wouldn't.

Fai. What did you do?

[Since he has seen Amelia's post, he does know what Yuui is talking about, and smiles his most innocent smile.]

I got you a date?

Jesus Fucking H Christ, Fai. You can be such an ass sometimes, you know that? [ He sighs, running a hand through his hair, messing it up. ] What am I even supposed to say to her?

Oh, come on. Just tell her the truth. I was the one to ask her out for you, because I'm a weirdo, but you'd love to take her anyway and make up for your stupid brother's shenanigans. How does that sound?

[He doesn't see the problem, really.] I mean, I was pretending to be you, so she does want to go out with you.

Thanks. [ So dry. ] I hadn't actually planned on lying to her. I just hope you get how bad this could go if it goes bad.

And her choosing your idea of me somehow doesn't make me feel much better, sorry.

Oh, she'll be fine. She's Amelia, she'll probably think it's kind of funny, okay?

[Nope, still not getting it.] And you know I'm very good at imitating you.

I know. But I also know that you have a slightly skewed view of me.

And hopefully she will. But there is also a chance that she won't and instead she'll feel... I don't know, foolish for just having chosen someone to take her to the formal who might not even really want to.

But you do want to. I mean, she's really nice and sweet, and you don't have a date, so going there with her will be fun, right?

[Way to miss the point.] And I have a very accurate view of you, don't be silly.

[ Yuui just shakes his head, exasperated and still unable to keep the almost constant underlying fondness from bleeding through. ]

I'm sure I will, if she decides she still wants to go with me after I've explained everything. She seems very [ interesting ] nice. But Fai, you're not getting my point.

[ He gives Fai a disbelieving, and rather incredulous, look. ] You put me in the same ballpark as Lorna. It's seriously skewed.
