Perhaps you should have realized that you never see me using the women's restroom at school? Either you're lying or you're incredibly insensitive. And I have no reason to assume you're telling the truth about anything now. My identity is my own and it's for a reason.

[burningblossoms]

[Jesus, way to make her cry, Naoto.]

If I may be blunt?
I don't pay attention to who comes and goes from restrooms.
Just as I've never questioned your identity.
You are who you are, and if you want to be male, then I'll refer to you as male from now on.

I am probably being insensitive and I sincerely beg your forgiveness. I have no experience with anything like this, and all I ask that you give me an opportunity to learn. Clearly I need to, if I have offended you in any way.

I also ask that you not accuse me of lying. I would not lie to you, I have no reason to do so, and your gender has no bearing on that whatsoever.

[truedetective]

I It's not that [She deletes and tries again] I do not "want" to be male. But I do "want" the world to perceive me as such. The reasons are mine alone. Would you want people walking around casually telling others your secrets? I don't think I'm being that unreasonable.

[burningblossoms]

I don't want or need to know your reasons, Naoto. I haven't asked, because it is not my place to do anything but support you. That's what I want.

And Yu told me how I told him. At his party I referred to you as She. It was an accident, and I swear it will not happen again, all the more so now that I know. You aren't being unreasonable in asking me to keep your secret.

I don't want to lose what connection we have. Is it unreasonable for me to request the chance to do right by you?

[truedetective]

Hm. I see. [That makes her feel a little better, she supposes?] I suppose it's not unreasonable to want a second chance. I'll likely give it. But I need a few days. Whatever your actions or intentions, this felt like a betrayal.

[burningblossoms]

That's up to you.

Contact me when you feel ready to talk again.

Please take care of yourself, Naoto.

[And she won't respond again unless asked a direct question.]
