[For Gaims, but especially seeking Takatora(s) and Micchi(s)]

[otherwise known as: I'm in ur tower, creepin' on ur baby brother]

I'm not saying I had even a pinkie finger in organizing the field trip that brings this high school class to the Tower for a tour. I'm definitely not saying that I had any idea that the class in question also happened to contain Takatora's little brother, his pride and joy, the one he's got a picture of on his desk (and not even his parents have that distinction)...

And also, notably and somehow completely outside of Takatora's notice, one of my favorite little test subjects.

I slink towards him, hanging back and looking utterly bored by the proceedings. I'm not surprised- he's a Kureshima. He could come here any time he wants to, he just, presumably, chooses not to. Probably because he spends all of his free time with that Team Gaim.

"Kureshima Mitsuzane-kun?"

He's right. And oh, it's oddly satisfying, if nervewracking, to have someone in authority be so gentle but firm. Which isn't to say that I'm going to just bow down to Ryouma-san, but if I told nii-san any of this he wouldn't understand my position. Ryouma-san actually seems to. At least, a little.

"I agree," I say quietly. I have no intention of confronting nii-san.

...until the time comes where I have to declare where I stand.

I pass by him on my way back to my desk, and pick up the file on all of the Driver users that Cid gave me. I flip it open, and the second page after the dossier on Takatora that I added myself, is the person in question. I flip the attached picture up so Mitsuzane-kun can see it without seeing what all information I have on them.

"This Kazuraba Kouta is a friend of yours, then, I take it?"
