hajime glances at you, smiles awkwardly, and looks away. he scratches his eyebrow. "i don't know about that..." you assure him that you mean the compliment. not knowing what else to say he just politely nods his head and thanks you.
kazuichi looks down, trying not to show how flustered he was at their little comment. hearing things like that really means a lot to him. 'do they really mean that?' he thinks to himself. he's finally able to regain control of his face before he looks back at them. with a sparkle in his eyes, he thanks them.
fuyuhiko raises his eyebrow. "what do you mean by that? you think i look like a kid too, huh?" he is instantly offended. you have to explain that you were trying to compliment him on his features; his freckles especially. his shoulders, previously tense, drop slowly as he looks away. he huffs out a breath. "whatever. you're just saying that to save your ass."
gundham brings his scarf up to hide his face. he tries to come off as intimidatingly as possible by glaring at them, not being able to accept defeat so easily. once he sees that they are unbothered, he quietly mutters: "i suppose there are some who can find beauty in the darkness..." then walks away, scarf still hiding the lower half of his face.
nekomaru looks at you, perplexed. then he smiles, patting your shoulder. "a pretty boy? but i'm a man!" he flexes his other arm. "i appreciate the compliment! but i haven't been a boy in a loooong time."
teruteru tilts his head up at them, a smirk already on his lips. "is that right? well, i sure am happy you think so because you're not so bad yourself." he winks. they thank him nervously, trying to find a way to assure him it was just a compliment!
the ultimate imposter is confused at first. 'sure, some of my disguises can make me look pretty but,' he thought to himself. 'do they actually mean that i am?' unfortunately, it's hard for him to believe it due to his insecurities. he thanks them anyway. it's the polite thing to do.
nagito shakes his head, unable to take the compliment at first. "my friends are much better looking than i am! really!" it's sad to see someone as cute as him not be able to accept the fact that he looks good. "...how i look depends on my luck that day, anyway." he sighs softly.
ryota stares pensively at them. he's thinking about what to say to defend himself. it finally registers that they are actually complimenting him! he doesn't really know what to say except for a meek "thank you?" before going back to his apartment, looking into the mirror, and studying his face. he wonders what it was about his features to make them want to compliment him. he is the obsessive type after all.
