Yamato told me you were here. You've both been here about a month, right?
[The implications of this haven't hit Hiro quite yet. He's happy enough - but at the same time, not - to see Makoto, just because... well, he wants friends around, but Makoto is not the first girl he would have picked to be here just because she doesn't seem like the type for... well.
[ that makes her lineface a tad. it was both difficult and painfully easy to keep track of time, given the fact that the place hadn't really given her a break recently.
well. being here at all was more than a little awkward. ]
Ah, you've already met Chief Hotsuin. [ she's just trying to delay acknowledging that question, but she had to eventually. ] But yes, that's right. I'm sure you've found answers to the majority of them that have answers, but if you have any questions. . .
The face he makes is not a pleased one. He has considered that, most likely, Makoto has had to have sex with someone, and he does not like that imagine because he understands Makoto well enough to know how awkward that would be.
After that comes the realization that the most likely person would be Yamato.
His expression becomes something along the lines of 8[ because that's a good face for imagining Yamato and Makoto gettin freak nasty.]
[ she's assuming that the source of his expression is due to some of the more confusing ( and not flustering ) aspects of their situation. in makoto's mind, what hiro is thinking is: she'd been here for a month, but he saw her the day before... time is weird! totally oblivious.
also probably not the best thing to say given hiro's actual train of thought. ]
[ … a pause. details of… he didn't need to know those details? wasn't it important to stay informed about he situation? he always seemed to be fine with it.
That was kind of a statement she hadn't been expecting, and she's not really sure how to respond. well. ]
with the chief of all people. not that there's anything wrong with the chief, of course, just that he wasn't-- she just couldn't imagine something like that. wow, why did she let that conversation spin to that point. ]
He's my commanding officer-- [ wait, that entire thing isn't the issue. ] It's a misunderstanding.
[ it's very clear, but a little bit... embarrassed. you know this is really making her more flustered, and she thinks this whole "conversation over the communicators" thing isn't working out too well.
and she'd. rather not have any more misunderstandings like that-- an awkward pause. yeah, it'd be a good way to shift the conversation too-- ]

Is this...?

[There's a few seconds of delay before Hiro's grinning face shows up on the feed. Sorry, he can't resist teasing just a little bit.]
video;
somehow she's not surprised. there's a sense of relief at first from seeing hiro's face on the feed, but at same time that meant he was stuck.
but, still. he looked fine ( again, not like she's surprised ) so she'll allow herself to smile. ]
Kageyama. It's very like you to come to me first.

She probably hasn't taken Zodion quite as well.]

You don't consider it important?

That's not-- I-- [ oh her brain just fried please hold.

Hiro does not look pleased about this either because it's a really gross image.]

So you didn't?
[GOD DON'T MAKE HIM SAY IT - it's less the phrasing itself and more saying it to HER. If it were Daichi, for example...]
video;
No. [ it comes out very strained because goodness she didn't want to imagine that when she hadn't done something like that.
composure, Makoto. ] I haven't...

Is that better or worse?]

Would you mind meeting in person, Kageyama?

[This is an address because I can't be bothered to make shit up. He says it. He clarifies it, if need be.]

[ and this is when she does a miniature bow of the head since bowing completely looks awkward on screen. ]
I'll be there shortly.
