"He'd be able to explain it better," Osamu insists. "You're just.... different. Not in a bad way!!" He adds quickly, fearing he might have insulted Kita. "Not in a bad way at all. It's like you're just a good person, way better than most people. And you aren't even tryin' to be. You just are."
Kita's not reaching for better. That sort of battle is for other people. He only wants to set the world in order. Make things feel right. A concept baffling everyone he knows, aside from his grandmother.
Oh well.
Taking mercy, Kita smiles.
"Don't worry. I'll take it as a compliment. Thanks."
"Hadn't thought of that. Guess Aran's the only one who comes over.""
It's true. This is the first hangout in a non-volleyball capacity. Kita can't say he minds. Even with this disruption to the Sunday schedule, the management of yet another crisis.
"So Aran's been here," Osamu mumbles, filing that information away. It's obvious the two upperclassmen are friends, but he and Atsumu have never really been able to tell how deep that friendship runs.
"And you invited him over but not us? Isn't the team captain supposed to be fair and encourage team bondin' and stuff?" He teases, toeing the line of being bratty. Hopefully, anyways.
But there are still reactions. Nuance in tone and expression. Especially in the eyebrows. Which now tilt a fraction, translating into I know you don't mean a word of what you're sayin' you absolute menace to society.
"Does the team need to bond over Advanced Calculus? I'll add it to the schedule."

Just so Osamu's aware.
