[They don't matter?? They're adorable, as is cognitive child Akira, and it occurs to Goro he hadn't actually seen very many family photos -- if any at all -- in Akira's house when he went over. Or... maybe he just can't remember them, it was a while ago now and he'd been insanely nervous at the time. For some reason he can't even recall at this point. Just because he didn't usually go to others' houses?]
You really are kind of weird. [But it's fond and Goro bumps their shoulders together lightly, humming thoughtfully.
Trees turning colors, Halloween, roasted sweet potatoes... School starting up, the sloe death of insectkind as the chill comes. It's like a book turning pages in his mind, reason after reason.]
The world gets quieter in the fall, [he finally says, soft himself with a tone of wistfulness.] Every sound is magnified, from a bird's song to the crinkle and crunch of leaves. The trees turn all kinds of beautiful colors that we can still see too, and honestly I'd like to see them with you sometime, Akira. They're a sight that should be shared with others.
[... Well that came out better than he thought it would, okay, he's playing with his hair a bit and Moving On--]
Um, the insects start to die or go into hiberation too, so there's no stupid mosquitoes or anything really around. And there's Halloween! Halloween is fun, I like it, I think I might be too older to go around and ask for candy at this point but I like watching the movie marathons they show to celebrate it. Need any other reasons?
