[That's a second glass... Well, Yoosung surely has a higher tolerance than Mitarai, because his body is so much more fit. Instead of someone being a prude and freaking out, they remain in peaceful silence. Mitarai has only a little sliver of songpyeon left by the time Yoosung asks him the question. He decides to just put it down and leave the crescent moon there to expand.]

I did.

[He looks up at the stars.]

I make wishes every year on Tanabata, the festival about the stars Altair and Vega. I once heard that the time the wish takes to get granted, and the power of the wish they can grant, is correlated to the distance from Earth. Meanwhile this moon is extremely close by comparison... It's almost definitely a backdrop in the simulation, not an object hundreds of thousands of miles away. So I decided to make a wish that would be within the domain of this moon.

Can you guess what it is, Kim-kun? You're the only one who might already know...

[If Mitarai weren't such a disgusting coward, he thinks, under the influence of alcohol, this would be the part where he puts his bare hand over the other man's hand. Instead he just tilts his head like a cat looking at something it likes.]

I want you to do that. As in, whatever was going to happen before the arrival of Waver Velvet-san.

[Yoosung told him to sort out his priorities, and isn't this the best way to start? By getting that information faster? Mitarai still has no idea how that's supposed to work, or whether anyone besides Yoosung could make that offer. He's not even sure Yoosung rejected him as too malicious to inform, it's rather plausible that they parted ways after Waver's arrival only because the situation was awkward. Isn't it?

Mitarai tears his eyes away. His wish is completely pragmatic. Period.]


...it's just a wish, though. Not an order or anything...
