“So ... ya and Mikey are together ...? Or were ya guys together in the past?”
It was a random question, quite a blurt of the mind as they were just together. He didn’t know much of what happened, who happened --- just bits and pieces of what he did catch; Shota seemed like someone who was at least ... conversational, and Hideki had grown to be comfortable with asking questions to the other man.
Plus ... he wouldn’t judge who was with who unless it threatened a person’s safety and well-being which he ... doubted was the case here. Perhaps it was being aware of Mikey’s past that did also bring up the curiosity in him.
“Hope it’s not a weird question or anythin’, ‘m just curious cause ‘m close to him and know ya so it’s like ... I dunno. Guess curious how ya two are doin’? Plus ya did ask me quite a bit about Raiden and me, so I suppose ‘m curious about yers as well if ya don’t mind talkin’ about it.”
