[If Rei is biased, then Rin is twice as much. They, too, met before they got to know each other, a brief encounter in a time of need, and given the chance, he would gladly go on and on about how Rei kept coming to his rescue, even as a child. Truly his savior, from the very start.

But these are thoughts meant for his journals, only. For now, at least.]

Yeah, of course. [Said with a scoff, though not ill-intentioned.] Makoto's said "I swim" and mine was-- well, you know that one already. [Given their position, there's no need for Rin to look away, but he does, anyway, suddenly self-conscious-- not so much over his own cheesy self from the past, but rather, the circumstances in which Rei learned about his childhood motto.]

Anyway, the three of them together read as I swim free for the team. [With a sigh, he pulls Rei's head closer to him, his free hand running down along the length of his boyfriend's arm.] If you and Nagisa had graduated with us, I wonder what you guys would've added. Probably something that would fit in just as nicely with the rest...

[Ah, there he goes, having ideas again. Maybe he should stop. Maybe.]
