"Well, that's a bit depressing," Koumyou notes, because he's not exactly a great catch himself, is he? Certainly not in his own mind.

"I guess it's also lucky we met during that train weirdness, because otherwise I tend to be pretty aloof with everyone. Friendly, you know? But distant."

It wouldn't have been because Yondu was some kind of nightmare, if the situation had been different, and so the outcome from it had been different... it would have been because Koumyou is broken.

And somehow, people tend not to realize that. Or they just don't care, which Koumyou doesn't fault them for. He also probably wouldn't, after all, in their place.

(Which can't possibly be because of the trauma as well, can it, Koumyou?)

"So, what were you like before that would have made you so unpopular?"
