act.78 Best Friend ~Best Friend~

151)
1: He's outta his damn mind!!
2(2b): Weak, strong, is that all he ever thinks about?!
3: Yeah...
4: How will fighting you solve anything at this point?!
5(small): Teyahh! Back kick!!
6: There's no point to it, is there?!
7: Y...
8: Yea...h.

152)
1: I...
2: don't want this to happen!!
3: If both of you fight, neither of you will make it out unscathed...
4(2b): You'll collapse into pools of your own blood...it's stupid!!! Friends fighting...
5: Fighting isn't a sport! It's not like you're going to shake hands after it's over, right?!
6: You think you're gonna be able to keep hanging out like normal when it's all said and done?!
7: That's...
8: It's different from fighting some no-name loser.

153)
1: ...when Katou sent me to the hospital--
2(2b): You...ran into his place on your own, didn't you? The place where that frightening guy ways...there's no way you could call that normal.
3: You and he are the only people I can count on to do stuff like that for me!!!
4(2b): After that...I called you stupid and told you to stop, but...the truth was--
5: I was so happy.
6: You two are special to me.
7: Shin-chan...

154)
1: To see the two of you fight...
2(2b): I don't want to watch that...I don't want to fucking watch it!!
3: I don't want to either.
4: I don't want to do it, first of all.
5: Yuu...
6(2b): It's alright, Shin-chan...we're--not going to fight.

155)
1(2b): Hmm. You...and Midorikawa...
2(2b): Ah, don't worry. It won't actually happen.

156)
1(2b): We're friends...it wouldn't make any sense...for us to fight. And more importantly, I don't want to anyway.
2: Shin-chan said it'd be weird too...and he said Shougo-kun will probably just forget about it eventually.
3(2b): You really think so? That he'll just forget?
4: You spoke once about the "reason power lies in our fists." Why we are so obsessed with that...
5: Why we embrace feelings that aren't exactly necessary to live a normal life--

157)
1: If he took his feelings...and believing that they would reach you, pushed them against you--
2: as a friend...
3: Kamishiro
4: Please!!!
5: Th...that's...

158)
1: Then...
2: what am I supposed to do?
3: Shin-chan, Shougo-kun...I don't want to lose either of them.
4: They're...both...
5: the first real friends...
6(2b): I've had in my entire life.

159)
1(2b): What should you do if you're a real friend...? Don't you already know the answer to that?
2(2b): I...don't know. I don't know!
3: If you don't want to tell the answer to yourself, then I guess there's no helping you.
4: If it was you, Izawa-san...what would you do...?
5: That's not the question, Kamishiro--

160)
1(2b): If you want to stay true to Shugo...then tell yourself the answer loud and clear.
2: If you answer half-assed,
3: or do some shit like losing on purpose,
4(2b): you'll definitely end up losing a friend.
5: --lose...

161)
1: --Shougo-kun--
2-6: hah
7: Fighting Kamishiro...

162)
1: I need to get in and destroy that long reach.
2: Get in close--
3: and try using grabs, like on his shins and elbows.
4: Get in close and destroy his distance.
5: I need to dive in with the intention to end things with one or two blows!!!
6-8: hah
9: It's alright...
10: There's no way I should lose!!!

163)
1: --one or two blows...--
2: Can I take that? Two of those...
3: Compared to when he fought with me before, his body is bigger...
4: and his destructive power has grown.

164)
1: If he hits me even once before I can make it to him,
2: won't it just end like that?!
3: No...that's exactly why.
4: It's because he's that kind of guy
5: that I want to test myself.

165)
1: To tell you that I'm in the same place as you...
2: Kamishiro--!!
3: Shougo-kun...

166)
1: Shougo-kun's eyes are always unclouded and straight.
2: Devoid of lies.
3: He always answers truthfully
4: in regard to my worries and feelings.
5: Clumsily straight
6: and seriously.
7: That's why--

167)
1: I need to answer too.
2: without lying or making excuses!!!
3: If both of you fight, neither of you will make it out unscathed...
4: I don't want to watch that!!
5: Ohh! Yuu, what's up? It's pretty late...
6: Shin-chan.
7(2b): I...kept giving you half-hearted replies...I wasn't being honest with myself!
8: Hahaha! What are you talking about all of a sudden...

168)
1: I want to respond to Shougo-kun's feelings.
2: Eh!!?
3: I'm...going to fight him!
4: Woah, hold on a minute here!
5: Why does it have to be that way?!
6: If I ignore his feelings, things won't just keep going like they always have...
7: With you, either, Shin-chan...
8: That's why I'm going to go...sorry!
9: Hey! Yuu...!!
10: We probably--

169)
1: won't be able to turn back after this...
2: but that place
3: won't be built
4: from lies or excuses.
5: it's our holyland,
6: after all.
