#i started a fic abt this but ive been to gloomy to finish it since its supposed to be sitcom type shit

i love ritsu teru dynamic in my head so much i keep forgetting they barely have any canon interactions. like im sorry ritsu would Not hate teru for being in love with mob he’d be like “well as long as my brother is okay with it :)” and then go back to his sudoku. and then teru deliberately opens up like a 16x16 sudoku and starts working on it while friendly chatting. they have also been banned from doing 2 player puzzle games unless both mob and a responsible adult are in the room i think

FOR REAL like i literally do not understand where the idea of them not liking each other came from at all aside from like. people extrapolating ritsu being overprotective from him not liking reigen? when vitally reigen is a. a fraud b. annoying. every interaction we see between teru and ritsu aside from their first one is polite and friendly, reigen went out of his way to invite ritsu to teru's beach vacation which he would not have done if they didnt get along (hes good at reading people!!! he would know!!! he invited him because hes his friend!!!)

like even in the terumob scenario, the closest analogue we have is tsubomi where ritsu was more wary about her hurting his feelings than anything, and given that teru very much seems to be like. the one who would be making the first move in that scenario i feel like thats totally nullified.

ANYWAY one of my favorite activities is imagining those two in various competitive games against each other bc i have the entrenched worldview that in all other scenarios they get along like normal polite middle school kids but the SECOND ego is on the table it gets so serious. uno is a bloodbath. mario kart killed people. and then the second the game is over theyre like "wow good game ^_^ hope to see you again soon!"
