We're over the flirting part in our relationship, Kise.
[ That's what all that stabbing was, clearly. Or maybe he's joking??? Who knows when it comes to Akashi. ]
And it's because it's difficult that I'm asking for help...
I mean, this thing really is more of your expertise than mine.

[ There is an awful lot of judging going on here over on Kise's end, just FYI. ]
well, i'll do my best. i mean, i'm totally honored that you're coming to me
for relationship advice! i definitely won't let you down!! o(〃＾▽＾〃)o
you could try to make henry something nice to eat
i mean you can't really cook here, but i could help you imagine something up
something from our world that he's never had a chance to try before maybe?

I just realized I've never asked what kind of thing he likes to eat.
... There's never been a lot of variety here, or on Ophiuchus.
Anyway, I feel like that's not a very unique experience.
I mean, if I were hungry, you'd try making me something to eat, right?
[ Hopefully the answer there is yes. ]
Not to say that I don't think it's good advice...
I just was thinking, shouldn't it be something that'll stand out?

well obviously that's not the only thing you should do
but it shows you're thinking about him if you make him something special!
you can make him anything now, after all, that's a lot to choose from
for other stuff to do... what hobbies do you guys have in common?
violence and blood and killing things is not an acceptable answer!!

Well, I spent a lot of time watching him making preparations when he does magic...
Sometimes I help, too.
You know, it's actually kind of hard to think of hobbies...
How many months has it been since either of us played basketball?
And I haven't played shogi or read a book in months.
We also both like animals.
Alive animals, I mean.

[ Kise is, admittedly, glad that Akashi made that last distinction. ]
what about making a picnic and taking him to feed the bookworms?
you can tell each other romantic stories!
and you should find out things like his favorite food and color and stuff
i'm pretty sure neither of you bothered to do that before

I'll have to dig deep to come up with something better than the story about the cherry blossom trees...
And, well, I suppose it's worth asking.
Although, you know...
I'd think somebody could tell immediately what either of our favorite colors.
Though I haven't asked, to be fair.

How much did you pay attention in literature, Kise...
Under the Cherry Trees is quoted during hanami all the time.
"Dead bodies are buried under the cherry trees.
You have to believe it. Otherwise, you couldn’t possibly explain the beauty of the cherry blossoms.
I was restless, lately, because I couldn’t believe in this beauty.
But I have now finally understood: dead bodies are buried under the cherry trees.
You have to believe it."
[ Yes, he does have that entire passage memorized. He's cultured and whatever. ]
What other basic things?

How are we supposed to rebuild if we have no culture?
One of the driving concepts behind hanami, besides the fact that the blooming sakura are beautiful to look at, of course, is the idea of wabi-sabi.
Though not unique to Japanese culture, it certainly does stand out for various reasons,
At its heart lies an acceptance of a world view and aesthetic that "beauty is transient and imperfect".
A related concept is mono no aware, a sensitivity to ephemera. It's the awareness of impermanence,
And generally entails a gentle wistfulness at the fact that all things must come to pass.
Under the Cherry Trees captures the despair and suffering that one feels at seeing something so beautiful with such a short lifespan,
Relating that transience to the mortal lifespan of other people and creatures.
Yet by acknowledging its transience, the perspective character is freed from it, and declares at the end that he can again enjoy the cherry blossoms as any other person would.
Also, I thought he would like it.

[ Kise is regretting so much right now. What choices did he make that have led to this lesson straight out of lit class at the end of the world? What has he done to deserve this lecture?? ]
i'm pretty sure you could just come out and tell him
that you'd miss him if anything happened to him
[ Ah, yes. That's what. ]

yeah but there's talking and then there's saying stuff like that!!
what else like that have you told him????????????????????
[ Has Akashi said the l-word? Has Kise missed his chance to throw Akashi a party for discovering the truth depths of his feelings here? This is vital information!
Even if he's not sure how he'd throw a party in the middle of an end of the world wasteland to begin with. ]
