[ as with everyone else out there, madara's going to milk this bonding time with izumi for all its worth. not that he'd blame the guy for wanting to hang out with him, but aren't they usually loners?

mm, no. izumi's usually surrounded by his peers who somehow tolerates him, while madara, inhumanly talented as he is, doesn't belong to anybody and anyone. misery loves company, or so they say.

izumi groans, crossing his arms together in a huff as he starts radiating big tsun energy in hopes that madara would get the fuckign hint. ]

Yeah, yeah. You're as reliable as ever, Mikejima. Way to go. [ complete deadpan. ] The sooner we can stop using public transportation, the better. God, why didn't they let us bring our rides instead of making us buy new ones? It's not like our bikes would violate anything in this shitty city.
