I honestly think nirei has every right to be, to find someone he had cared deeply for along with the rest of furin, and someone who had taught him for the better — to be stronger and independent, to have more courage for himself, to suddenly decide to vanish for days unannounced, and then suddenly, show up just to say goodbye.
“i’m just a guy who happened to be in your class,”
the same definitely goes for the rest of their class too, who has been worrying on the behalf of suo and his disappearance. I can imagine just how infuriated sakura might be when he finds out, and would have definitely done just about anything to not let suo go, either.
and I think it might be more than just an argument, seeing how suo has spoken to nirei in this chapter. there is a high chance it would have become a full on brawl against each other. at the same time, this could be their way of talking, perhaps to find out more about why suo decided to be like this, to suddenly decide to wipe himself off the face of earth just like that — because if we remember, fists are also used as a way to communicate via umemiya’s words all the way back in the shishitoren arc.
even if suo was just a guy who happened to be in their class, he still became part of the found family. he contributed to it, he knows he’s important. he isn’t a guy who happened to be in their class. he was more important than to be subjected to the role he claims. he is the reason why sakura became what he is today in windbreaker, the same for nirei. he is a big part of their life amongst their other classmates.
I find these words the most infuriating because how could suo say it with such an expression as if he really didn’t care — but then he was the same person who had gotten angry on his own behalf during the fight with keel when nirei got injured???
the entire fandom knows just how much nirei practically means to suo when that moment dropped. and even so, took the initiative to help teach him how to properly defend himself and how to fight. to become stronger.
of course, this doesn’t just go for nirei. it also applies to sakura because suo is someone who got him used to not being alone anymore. someone who is extremely important to sakura, one of the people he holds dear most.
but okay, suo hayato. being casual, aren’t you? slapping the “we aren’t anything” to the people (and person) who would do anything just to get him back.
