    "In fact, about two or three hours of drinking go by before I start to see any signs of inebriation in her at all. And even {i}I’m{/i} feeling a little buzzed at this point."
    "None of it feels out of the ordinary, though."
    "In fact, if you get rid of all the conversation, it hardly even seems like I’m out with {i}anyone{/i} right now."

    "We’re just two human beings spending more money than we probably should, and more time in new places than we typically would."
    "It’s...a strangely good night."
    "One that I doubt I’d ever be able to recreate with someone like Sara or Maki."

    h "Like, I’m all for wrapping myself up in[teen]drama, but spending time away from it for a change and just...not focusing on anything with you has been pretty awesome."
    h "Even with Sara and stuff, it’s hard to really feel like...I don’t know, detached?"
    s "Detached from what, exactly?"
    h "Everything, dude."

    scene harukadatetwenty16

    h "Like, it feels like...the rest of the world’s been deleted and that the urban district is all that’s left."

    h "You’re thankful too, right? For having me, I mean."
    s "Are you fishing for compliments now?"
    h "I’m not...{i}not{/i} fishing for compliments?"
    h "I don’t know. I’m a little drunk, but I’m basically just trying to say that it’s nice having somebody who feels like a real friend rather than just someone I’ve known for a bunch of years."
    h "Sara and Maki are great, but...there’s never anything new with them."
    h "And whether they want to believe it or not, they both kinda settled down and had kids and..."
    s "And you never stopped being young."

    scene harukadatetwenty19

    h "I...don’t know if I’d go that far."
    h "I feel like, on at least some level, no one ever stops being young."
    h "It’s why even tiny things like going to bars or talking about the cute girls who served us at those bars can make us feel younger, even if it’s for just a little while."
    h "And I’m sure Sara and Maki feel plenty young, too. "
    h "Sara...probably {i}too{/i} [young]at times. But her circumstances are a lot less normal than Maki’s, as weird as that is."
    h "If anything, it’s probably more like Sara has yet to grow up."

    s "No, I think you more or less explained how I’m feeling. "
    s "You just did it a lot more...positively, which I guess I’m thankful for."
