You better not snatch defeat from the jaws of victory Tsukushi !! Just calm down, this is a great thing, you can do this, don't screw this up for yourself !
Poor Hinoka. I wonder if Tsukushi realizes she has just hurt her horribly.
I wonder if she realizes Hinoka can only take her attitude as cold rejection.
Probably not.
None of you understands; Hinoka rejected her before (in her dream) so now Tsukushi's answer to the kiss is a silent cold shoulder to Hinoka. It's payback!
C’mon, folks—give Tsukushi a little time to process here. We already know that she takes a bit longer to emotionally process than the average person.
She’ll catch on eventually—like the next Ice Age, maybe.
You’re giving her too much credit. The last spark the universe experiences before entering total heat death is going to be generated by Tsukushi finally putting the pieces together.
