buying him time

unfortunate news being aroace does not give you immunity against yearning . sorry. i know . i was disappointed to learn it too

I’m watching Splash (1984) which is a romcom about a guy who falls in love with a mermaid, and when she chooses a human name she chooses Madison and guy says “that’s not a real name, but alright” which seems to imply that Madison was not a name until at least the 80’s and all girls named Madison are actually named after the mermaid. thought you should know

Oh he would be so mad about this.

Senku building something while Gen is watching him

Senku, stretching his hand to Gen: Mentalist.

Gen, confused: (He needs me to pass something to him, but what? There's no instruments other than the ones right next to him. If he wanted those, then he would've took them himself. If he wants me to grab something then he nitely-defay knows that I can give it to him)

Senku, groans in irritation:

Gen: !! (Oh no. I'm taking to much time thinking! C'mon, Gen, what can you give him that only you have at the moment??? Check your pockets! What is it? Flowers? No! Why would he need flowers right know!? Paper!? Maybe for science??? Some chemical process??? God dammit, Gen, he's doing engineering not chemistry!)

Gen, looks around in panic: (What should I do!? What should I give him!? Is it too late to nonchalantly ask what exactly he wants??? Did I ruined it!? Will he be mad?? Will he lost his trust in me?? Will I ever restore it after that!? Control you breathing, control your thoughts, control your body language, don't make it look like you're about to die! Please, don't ruin this, my stupid inner self!! Please, don't have an anxiety attack! At least have it inside, don't let it show!)

Senku: Agh

Senku grabs Gen's hand gently and continues working like that:

Gen: :0

Gen: (Oh... That's what he wanted. To hold my hand)

Gen: ....

Gen: (Now I can't think)

That face he does in season 3

the secret to life is always having something to look forward to
