Summary:

-Get some sleep. Next time we talk, I’ll have something cool to show you.

-Promise?

She doesn’t respond to his provocation. He doesn’t think about it, after all, why would he? It was late in the States, she was probably already turned over and dozing.

Before the world turned to stone, Senku had a friend on the other side of the world. Someone he cared about far more than he was willing to admit to anyone other than himself. After all, love was illogical, but then again, he was only human.

It's been 3700 years, but he remembers his promise.

Notes:

This came to me in a disjointed dream, so I'm sorry if it's not the best

-You’re a total nerd, Sen

-Yeah yeah, you’ve been saying that for years.
