Sometime after 02, Steve & Frigimon and Koushiro are chatting, for once in person:
Koushiro: You know, we -- I -- /immensely/ appreciate your help, but...
Steve: "But"?
Koushiro: We're-- I'm- a little concerned about yo--
Steve: ( Huh... )
Koushiro: You just keep... (Kind of awkwardly vague motions with hands in a way Koushiro usually tries to Not Let Show)
Steve, filling in words for Koushiro: Kind of randomly appearing, solving the problem, and leaving to--?
Koushiro, light nodding but firm:
Steve: ( ... Laugh )
Koushiro, blinking, not quite Getting: Um--
Steve, casually: I mean, I really /do/ usually have those things to do... and then we {insert activity like classes, Synagogue etc} so it just 'happens'
Steve, genuine: Sorry if I'm worrying you, though.
Koushiro, totally not about to blush in nervousness: N-Not at all--!! (Stammering, waving hands)
Steve: (That's really cute that Koushiro cares.)
Frigimon, looking back and forth between them:
Frigimon, to Steve: (You have 'that' kind of expression again)
Steve: ('Hush, Koushiro's a kind person and')
Steve: ('Besides, I'm way too invested in what's going on between Koushiro and that Friend that Koushiro keeps bringing up, anyway')
Frigimon: ('You're 'fond' of Koushiro too, though')
Steve: ('I said HUSH...')
Steve: ('Koushiro IS cute like this though')
Koushiro, meanwhile, glancing back and forth between them: "????? ??? ?? ? ?"
Steve: (''Taichi-san' sounds like a lucky one.')
