[He can still summon a flaming skull mask, so like. He has to at least be somewhere in the middle. James Dean can't do that!]

Weight training, huh...?

[Yeah, he feels a little confident in that regard, but still... he was only really using the gym here because he didn't have anything else to do. Maybe he should try to come up with a real routine besides running and lifting weights? Maybe Ryuji would exercise with him? He'll ask later.]

Hey, don't call Haru a loser.

[It's said with a teasing grin, because it's fine for Ryuji to call himself a loser, but Haru? Come on, don't be rude.]

But... I see. I hope I don't let you down.

[His hand goes to his lips in a moment of concerned anxiety. Speaking of Haru and the other losers...]

Is... it really okay that you're bringing me into this without checking with your friends first?
