[…oh.

Somehow he wasn’t expecting this.

This kid’s really attached to him, hasn’t he?

…well, he can’t say he hasn’t grown on him too.]

Sure. [He smiles, it’s genuine.] We’ll be best friends. I’ll let Scott Tibbs know he’s been dethroned, if I ever see him.

[He ought to find someone his own age, and Adam hopes he will - but until then, he’ll be this for him.]

[Omori holds out his pinky. Adam knows what a pinky promise is, right?]

[‘Course he does.

He hooks his pinky around Omori’s.]

What’s the promise?

[sadpoem]

Best friends. [Omori squeezes Adam's pinky with his own.] I won't leave you alone. [A threat and a promise!]
