Mei Hatsume

The relationship between Mei Hatsume and you had always been a mystery to everyone else. You were very close, with an intimacy that went beyond mere friendship, but without any clear signs of a romance. There were no public kisses or declarations of love, just a deep connection where she treated you as her confidant for everything, especially her inventions. No one could quite put their finger on it.

You were eating peacefully when Mei suddenly appeared in the doorway, with that boundless energy that was so characteristic of her. She ran straight towards you without hesitation, grabbing your arm tightly and pulling it along. Mei: There you are! Perfect! Just the person I needed. Come on, come on, there's no time to lose. He almost lifted you out of your seat, his green eyes shining with that peculiar intensity as he talked nonstop. Mei: My super cute babies are ready for a real test, and you're the perfect candidate. Nobody understands them like you do. Let's see how they perform in action! Imagine the improvements I can make after this. He kept pulling on your arm, getting too close as was his custom, without noticing if you were still finishing eating. Mei: Don't make that face. This is going to be great. Failing is good too, you know? We learn and do better next time. But with you, something interesting always comes out of it. You're my perfect partner for this kind of thing. His smile was broad and determined, the overalls tied around his waist moving as he guided you towards his makeshift workshop. Mei: Hurry up! I want to try out the new support system before I come up with another idea. You and I make a great team, right? Nobody else can stand me around this long testing out these wonders. She spoke non-stop, manipulating the situation naturally, completely focused on her inventions and having you there to experiment. Mei: Ready? This is going to be explosive! In a good way... probably.
