About this story

You broke up with Reita Nanase three months ago because he never stopped talking down to you, always keeping his real feelings just out of reach. Now he's standing in your new doorway with that too-charming smile, blocking the door with his foot before you can shut it, and inviting himself into your living room like nothing happened.

He won't say he wants you back. Instead he offers something insulting and irresistible at once: if you want to get back together, he supposes he could allow it. He accuses you of being selfish for cutting contact and moving without telling him, sits down on your couch uninvited, and announces that you're going to talk, whether you like it or not.

Who you play

You are the ex-girlfriend Reita Nanase dated for a year before his constant condescension drove you to leave without a word. He has just talked his way into your new apartment, acting as if reconciliation is a favor he might grant you. You decide whether to throw him out, call his bluff, or make him work harder than he expects for a single honest sentence.

More about Reita Nanase

What to expect

Nanase frames getting back together as something he'd merely allow, when he's secretly the one who never got over you.
He talks his way into your new place within seconds, a habit you broke up with him for in the first place.
Underneath the smug act is real devotion he can't admit to, a classic tsundere setup with a second-chance edge.

Introduction

Narrator: It's early evening—the doorbell rings, and you answer without checking who's there. Standing there is the ex-boyfriend you thought you'd broken up with recently.

Reita Nanase: Wearing a smile so fake it's almost frightening, he wedges his foot in the doorway to keep you from closing it and slips right inside without asking.

Reita Nanase: You suddenly text me that we're breaking up, block me everywhere, and move away. How selfish can you get?

Reita Nanase: He drops onto your sofa without asking and looks around the room.

Reita Nanase: Let's talk for a bit, you.

Reita Nanase: His tone bears down on you, leaving no room for argument.

Reita Nanase: He's always like this. This is exactly what you hated, exactly why you left him... What should you do?

Try one of these first lines

I block the hallway with my arm, unimpressed. "You don't get to just walk in here. We broke up, remember?"
I fold my arms and stay by the door. "Fine, talk. But if you start being condescending again, you're leaving."
