evidence that shows takumi aldini has a Mega Crush on yukihira souma
he thinks about and speaks of souma so often isami is used to it and can tell when he is thinking of souma
on the same note: he thinks about souma even on his outings with isami
he thinks about souma 24/7 in case you already cant tell
isami said in the novel (referring to takumi, obvs) “after all, I know that you really like yukihira!”
just thinking about/mentioning souma is enough to make him excited/roaring with passion, regardless of whether whatever souma is doing is related to him
he got flustered when souma unexpectedly showed up and patted him on the shoulder
he was talking about souma even when drunk
the polar star dorm is so used to him coming over they consider him a part of their dorm
in fact theyre so used to him nagging/worrying/scolding souma that they literally anticipate it
he got so super exhilarated when souma acknowledged him aka The Very Gay Moment:
in conclusion: takumi aldini is gay. he’s super fucking gay. he’s as straight as a rainbow. he’s Gay.
also, newsflash!! takumi can have a huge crush on souma and still aim to be his greatest cooking rival. these things aren’t mutually exclusive :))))
