#'bestest friend' hasnt come up in the fic in a long time but i havent forgotten. i will Never forget it

[orcelito]

dslkjfaslkdjf so like akira and goro have been Best Friends in discacc since childhood. and they continue to uphold that Best Friends status even thru the years of distance. 

but also. they will become Boyfriends. & then ryuji is akira’s closest non-romantic friend, & ann is goro’s closest non-romantic friend. in a similar way, ann’s best friend is shiho, except she’s gonna become Girlfriend, so goro will be ann’s closest non-romantic friend. 

essentially, goro & ann and ryuji & akira are Bestie Pairs. best friends

except not the Bestest friends. bestest friends will Always be akira and goro. 

#speculation nation #discacc shit #ive thought about this a lil with me calling ryuji akira's best friend even tho goro is supposed to hold that position #which maybe that's the thing. 'best friends' is maybe malleable with the romantic aspect to it #and so Best Friend as a concept could imply Best (non-romantic) Friend #akira and goro will still be friends of course. like that's the Thing. the backbone of their relationship is their friendship #no matter what tho. even with akira and goro each developing their own close friendships w/ other people #'bestest friends' remains as something between only them #from that very first scene with goro's mom. and the very first time they wrote to each other #'bestest friend' hasnt come up in the fic in a long time but i havent forgotten. i will Never forget it #and when i can finally pull it back out again...................jdflksjdfkj i am gonna b crying in the club i swear
