@Kaarme I said it before but this kid acts like he's never played a strategy game before. He could've even spend a half hour planning the meeting beforehand like you do with a turn based strategy but he's winging it. *facepalm* I mean I knew he'd be dense at romance cuz it'd a Japanese manga but I didn't believe that he'd be dense at literally the one thing he should be good at.
I feel like this author should consult with an actual strategy gamer enthusiast for planning their writing.
