[Ain wants to playfully cuff his arm or something, but... but no. No, he has to say something. Get it off his chest while he's staring at Wolfwood's. He's not going to say "hey I've been getting off to you FYI" because that's weird, is that weird? Is it weird to do that? He doesn't know, anyway, he's not doing it. He is gonna frown and put his wallet in his cardigan pocket. The greens match each other nearly exactly.
He takes a breath.]
Wait. I... I want to tell you something. You probably won't like it, but I'll forgive you if you don't. Um, but I... I think...
[He fidgets, pulling at his sleeves in that familiar way he does. His eyes snap to the ground, and his voice lowers so that only Wolfwood can hear.]
I think I might... like... men. Other men. I mean— I'm keen on them.
[Well, he's keen on Wolfwood, but he can't just say that. If this admission doesn't get him murdered on sight, that one would. Or so Ain thinks, anyway.]
I know you don't want to hear that from someone you're friends with, so I wanted to tell you before you wasted any more time with me. I'm sorry. I only just figured it out, or I would've said something sooner.
