[ Poor, poor Takumi. But even if he had a right to tease - gods knows he was just as much of a mess trying to figure out if he even stood a chance with Oboro - Leo knew better than to do so. He just gives Takumi what he hopes is a comforting squeeze on the shoulder. ]
Let me reassure you, he's interested in guys. He told me such when I came out to him. [ Which was definitely an experience, and something he's not going to dwell on right now. ] And if he's seeing anyone, he hasn't mentioned it to any of us. [ So he's in the clear, at least. ]
So if there's anything I can do to help you, don't hesitate to ask. [ He jostles him a bit. ] Don't overthink this.
["Don't over think this." Just who does Leo think he's talking to? He's going to overthink it whether he wants to or not. Because Xander is So Much and he is - well, he's just Takumi.
That little bit of information makes Takumi's shoulders sag, though, in relief. Xander being single (probably. takumi doesn't understand how he could be) and not straight eases some of his worries. Or at least he wont feel as guilty about objectifying an unknowing straight guy.]
Do you- [ugh this is really embarrassing to talk about. He feels like such a loser asking this.] What sort of things is he into? [The "sorry" is right on the tip of his tongue.] I can't really talk to him about classes... [They don't have that common ground like Leo and Oboro had.]
[ Leo moves his hand away from Takumi to resume eating his tomato, chewing thoughtfully. With how busy he keeps himself at work, Xander has hardly any time for hobbies or outside interests. Or relaxing in general. But... ]
He likes to read sometimes. Mostly non-fiction, though. [ he's An Nerd ] I'll lend you a few of his favorites. [ Because Leo is also a nerd, and definitely has his own copies of the same books. ]
