About Tadashi and... everything. But it's silly to have done so because nothing will happen, I don't have time for it, Tadashi has certainly made no show of any sort of... I mean... [She sighed and hid her face in her hands.] Love is...
Love is for everyone else. I'll stick to Tesla and Einstein, Rei. At least I know where I stand with them.
[Ah. Rei takes Ami by the hands, squeezing them gently and tugging them away from her face. Look at her, dear.] Love is for everyone. I...know that now. [It only took her how long?]
It isn't silly. It can only help, because Hiro-kun supports it. It doesn't take much time to love someone, and even you can spare that much time. [A beat.]
Tadashi-san moves slowly, deliberately. Give him time and he may yet show his feelings.
He supports it? [She wasn't sure Rei was correct in that regard. Although, she and Hiro tended not to talk about it.] I'm not sure there's anything to support.
I'm not trying to force anyone to move quickly, nor do I want to make mistakes, but I've accepted that he sees me as a friend only. I don't mind that. So it can remain that and I will move on. [Back to Tesla, perhaps, especially back to him.]
I don't know. He's a boy, and you're a stunning young woman. He'd be blind if he didn't notice you. [Rei smiles genially, trying not to laugh.] You haven't talked to him at all, have you?
[Ami suddenly looked at Rei in surpsie. Rei never mentioned that she was the one who made the first move. Ami had assumed it was Minako as the more... well, forward, one of the pair.]
I believe you, truly... I've never confessed... to anyone... I mean, besides a school-girl crush I've never liked anyone. [And certainly no one has liked her, outside the occasional love letter and the resulting allergic reaction.]
What if... goodness, I can face an entire galaxy or planet crushing down on us without so much as flinching but I can't even say "I like you," to him.[She hid her face in her hands.]
[Rei folds her arms and tries to sound as reassuring as possible. Yes that was true. They'd definitely done things that would be pants wettingly terrifying to anyone else...but the day to day things? Those were hard for either of them.]
Well, he's not going to kill you. He's not going to be angry. The worst that will happen is he says no, but I am certain he'll be flattered at the least.
I know it's the worst, honestly, I've considered the probability of... everything, even ViViD glitching again. Still, I suppose the worst is you'll need to find me at the pool for the next week or so if things go poorly.
When haven't you been? [She smiled.] I suppose, if I can face what I have, I can face rejection as well. [Because make no mistake, she knew that Tadashi didn't feel that way for her. Honestly, the confession, if she ever gave one, would be more to just clear the air and have it known. She sighed and leaned her head on Rei's shoulder.]
Just... I suppose I just need more time in actually... well I suppose it will happen when or if it happens.

[No, it wasn't Minako. It was Rei.]

Really?

Ask her, if you don't believe me.
