[Ishimaru hasn't met Yang before, so his first assumption--]

Yang...? Is that your boyfriend?

[schmisse]

Girlfriend, actually. But we're casual.

[ There's no shame in admitting it, she thinks! ]

Sort of, anyway.

[boldsimplicity]

[He looks surprised for a few seconds, but accepts it rather quickly. What's most important is Weiss being happy here!!]

Oh, I apologize! Your casual girlfriend then!

[His voice is probably a little Loud there.]

Kissing her upon hearing about your survival is completely appropriate! Even if a small amount of PDA was involved... I believe it can be overlooked this time!!

[schmisse]

[ Oh my god. There aren't that many people (probably just the waiters and other staff so it's fine), but Weiss' eyes still widen. ]

W- What? [ She laughs a little in disbelief. ] It wasn't PDA. It was in our house.

[boldsimplicity]

In that case, it's fully appropriate! I don't need to hear the details of your display of affection, but I'm in full support here!

[Leave it to Ishimaru to make any conversation awkward in some manner.]

[schmisse]

[ Weiss laughs a little, wanting to inquire about something now. ]

Have you ever liked someone before?

[boldsimplicity]

Huh?!

[This is probably the first time someone has asked this question to him. So, of course he misinterprets it.]

I like a lot of people! I like you and Naegi-kun and Asahina-kun and all of the friends I've made here!

[schmisse]

I mean romantically, silly.

[ Ishimaru, please. . . this guy has to stop misinterpreting things??? ]

[boldsimplicity]

Oh!

[Ishimaru seems a little embarrassed for giving a completely wrong answer, but now he knows for next time! Wow, this meeting has not only been joyous, but educational!

Nonetheless, he should actually answer the question...]

Erm, no... I haven't had romantic feelings for someone before. Not that I know of at least! I've been devoting most of my time to studying, so thoughts of dating another person never crossed my mind!

[schmisse]

You don't have to look so awkward about it. There's nothing wrong with that, and studying is a good priority.

[ She gives him a reassuring smile. ]

Anyway, let's finally order and eat.
