I'm way too worthless for student council... ah, don't you think Ishimaru-kun will do a better job?

( really? chiaki saying something nice? what alien replaced her, or is she too caught up in her love high... to be honest, maybe that's not even a compliment. either way, komaeda did cast in his vote, and it makes him wonder if chiaki would have chosen him had he actually been in the running. it's a short-lived thought as he watches her write every word, and her handwriting is sooo much better than the chicken block scratch or whatever the fuck komaeda had going on. )

Is it?

( he mimics her. he can't agree fully to her curiosity, because once upon a time, komaeda has loved — and that love turned into an unhealthy obsession. his own type of... obsessiveness. in a way, they aren't too different, if only komaeda could realize that. even now, he tries to think of something recent, but it's hard to pinpoint, he guesses saying he loves every ultimate wouldn't satisfy her. )

I love hope with all my heart... ( as if that's a proper answer. ) But to be loved in return... I'm unfamiliar... I really do have the worst luck! ( he isn't disheartened, but he focuses on her. ) You must've experienced both, unlike me.
