Trash Squad Day 2: Yusuke Date

[This is actually a pretty lucky date assignment, overall, since Shuichi is pretty comfortable around Yusuke and the greenhouse is really a pretty good date location. Relatively. Shuichi has also brought along some rice balls and tea.

He still looks a bit nervous, though.]

Well... it looks like its just the two of us. What should we do?

[he sighs, and sips his tea while he considers]

...He mentioned to me once that Kurusu-kun was the sort of person who cares about everyone, makes friends with everyone... while he was the first person Akechi-kun had who was anything like a friend. So, he couldn't... be everything Akechi-kun wanted him to be for him. That's why Kurusu-kun encouraged me to spend time with him, more or less.

But... I was on the top ten list, and someone I know is here from an alternate reality where I was dating him... and all the rest of my friends too. I think Akechi-kun feels like I'm the same. That I gain other people's affection easily, and eventually I won't be there for him anymore.

I don't... know how to reassure him, though. It's true that he's not the only person I like.

[oh god what is with all this timeline bullshit]

That is... to be fair towards Akechi, that is a highly unlikely scenario to find oneself in. I assume.

Y-Yes, well. It's not like I really know how it happened either...!

I am afraid I do not have any answers for you, as I suspect you know him much better than I do. I would have been quite fed up by such childish behavior.

You think it's childish...?

Perhaps 'childish' is not the correct word. But jealousy... it may be a natural feeling, but choosing to be insecure and fearful just seems so foolish. He is a detective--surely he has already figured out that there is nothing you can do to completely reassure him. The burden is his own.
