what do you mean, “never mind?” you don’t just text someone out of nowhere and then suddenly change your mind
you need something? spit it out
[ It’s not like Toji is the most graceful person when it comes to having a conversation either, but like Megumi, he’s been thinking a lot about how they argued and then left it with no closure. In the back of his mind, he is hoping that Megumi would text him, so to have him reaching out and then changing his mind makes him scoff and.. well, also get defensive.
[ which is just about the most age appropriate thing Megumi has ever said, as a 16 year old. now -- now that he actually has to express himself instead of escaping the conversation, he's completely stumped on what to say. ]
[ Toji’s natural reaction is to continue to be rude to Megumi, but for a moment, he recognizes a similarity between the both of them— how hard it is for them to admit their true feelings about things. Toji sighs on the other line, a hand lifting to idly rub at his eyebrow. ]
look, i started talking to you all wrong.. i should not have tried to just talk about all of that over text..
do you want to meet up instead? you can take your time trying to think of what to say
Well, yeah, I was trying to enjoy my book and you turned my night upside down.
[ But ... he can recognise his father's effort, and in response to that, he decides to put in some effort as well. He should calm himself down. There's a sigh. If only they could both see how similar they look right now. ]
[ From then, Megumi doesn't get a response back and Toji makes his way towards the library. He takes his time, somewhat dreading this conversation, but then again, it was him who initiated it first. It's taken him a lot of time to realize just how wrong he was for being such an absent parent, but he didn't really know how to be a good parent without someone else's positive influence.
But.. he has Yor, now, and Toji is becoming more and more aware just how obsessed he is with her. It helps that she's a very kind and motherly person naturally.
Before Toji realizes it, he's in the library, and he stays near the entrance of it, not really looking at a book he has picked up, but trying to look interested and.. as normal as possible with all of this. ]
