[A flush, and a bit of a stammer: these reactions aren't lost on him. He can't tell if Aira is pleased at the prospect of being called by a nickname, or if he's simply embarrassed at being confused for a girl. But either way,]
Well, if you have no preference, I might as well call you that around the girls, since that's how they already know you.
[And they'll meet up with those girls in just a minute.
He listens while Aira talks. Of course, he does look good in everything. But it seems Aira wants to know more about him: his likes, his dislikes, the kind of information that's not readily apparent. Like he's trying to get closer to his heart, perhaps. Nothing strange about that. That's every fan's desire: to learn more and more about their favorite idol. Through attending Lives, going to meet-and-greets, following them online, and worshipping them, every fan can get close to their idol's heart. And this person is the ultimate fan, judging from his bag and his status as President.
Hiyori just wonders what it was that inspired such devotion. Or rather, how far that devotion goes. Most of the girls aren't that dedicated. Being his fan is just some hobby to kill time. Is it also like that for "Ai-chan"? Or is he more serious?
Well, whatever the case may be, there's no harm in talking about favorite colors. Surely, for the sake of his fan, who wants to learn more about him, Hiyori can manage to answer honestly.]
A bright, sunny color just puts me in high spirits, you know? It drives out some of the gloom. Not that darker shades of orange and yellow aren't good too, of course...
[He's thinking of Nagisa's eyes, now.]
I guess "sunset" might not be the right word, since when the sun sets, it's about to go dark. Maybe more like "sunlit"? Kind of like...
[He goes through the rack again, trying to find an example of what he means, before stopping at a certain item.]
Like that! That's about what I was thinking of. Though, I don't know if it's my favorite shade to wear... but I don't think I have a sweater like this, so maybe I'll get it for that reason? Yep, it's good to have variety, so let's go with that ♪
[And he proceeds to take it off the rack. The pricetag is steep, but that hardly matters.]
Anything else you wanted to look for back here, or are we all set?
