Summary: Kamiyama thinks that other teenaged boys have no taste.



Itsuki knows, in the way one does, that other boys his age are thinking—in between homework and sports and video games and other related miscellanea—of pin-ups and magazines and what hides beneath their classmates’ skirts.

The thought fills him with distaste.

Instead, from his desk, Itsuki can watch the way a mid-afternoon beam of light cuts across the swirling dust-motes hanging in the classroom air to slice the skin of Morino’s wrist, the way the light slips beneath the thin skin to illuminate the delicate red traceries of veins.

Why would anyone want to think about anything else?
