[These are definitely things one can just pick up a dictionary for, and HiMERU might suggest that if he were feeling dismissive. But it's about the positive reinforcement of communication between family, right? And it's a good thing he likes teaching, even if the things his brother asks about are sometimes a little............ Well, he'd prefer Kaname asked him rather than learning from someone else, on those occasions.]
Semantics would be the study of how the meaning of words can be interpreted, especially their differences in interpretation across time and cultures.
[ he didn't prepare for followup questions....... sorry he's being put on read for a long moment while kaname's mind swims in a haze. ]
a book on storms.
[ heheheheh. he is so clever, to himself. but he cannot keep that going for longer than this so-- ]
also, i wanted to let you know that i'm [ ... he said he'd tell narukami it was a sleepover but-- ] going on a date with hiiro, so you don't need to set a plate out for me tonight.
[ date... only one of them thinks it's a date... they aren't really going anywhere either but marcus said that a lot of things can count as dates... the next message come after a beat. ]
[... Okay. Come on, this isn't a surprise. He'd talked about them before. He's had interest and you didn't... entirely.......... discourage it. It was only a matter of time.
This is manageable. This is still... fine. Hiiro, thankfully, is shit at keeping secrets, should HiMERU ever feel the need to press him for answers.]
[ "to an empty shed at the far corner of town that you don't know about" he has to.... text HIMSELF a reminder to swear hiiro to all levels of secrecy. he thinks the other can probably keep it if asked and given good reasons. ]
just around. i feel like i would have fun even watching paint dry if hiiro was with me, so where we end up is where we end up.
