Wait, what? Woah, no way man! It's not like that!!
[he holds his hands up, waving them a little.] We're just friends, yo. She was one of the first people I talked to when I showed up here. Pretty sure she wouldn't date a human anyway, man.
What's she got against humans? And if you're not dating, why are you making her dinner at midnight and going out to get drinks, leaving her alone on our couch?
[Shouta he'd do the same for you, and you're not dating...but that's different!!]
Onyx and I, you mean? I thought you were the English teacher, here.
[And yet the ribbing is a little softer than it could be, less caustic for sure. A peace offering, of sorts. Okay, so she's not his girlfriend, she's just a friend, and honestly Shouta hadn't minded her straightforward style, so he'll let it go.]
I guess as long as I'm still in the top five, I'm not a completely shitty friend.

[He's just going to kind of stare at Shouta for a minute.]
I do that stuff with you dude, does that mean we've been dating all this time?

We've known each other since we were fifteen, it's hardly the same thing.
[Right! Right. They're co-workers, and even friends, and it's definitely not the same thing. It's silly to even think that. Obviously.]

Well, me and Onyx are just friends, Shouta. Maybe not 15 years friends, but all the same, you know? Promise you're still my favorite drinking buddy.
[He offers up a teasing grin here, though.]
