Don't go pressing against me without permission then, is what he wants to say, but even verbally acknowledging that that just happened is a whole elephant in the room that he doesn't want to deal with. It's better if they just not acknowledge that. There are plenty of people Midorima hasn't been with here and doesn't ever intend to be with, even if he finds it rather annoying that there's essentially at least three days a month when he and Takao aren't going to be able to be in the same room as each other.

He's still a little huffy, even if he's standing with his arms crossed now that he's out from the kotatsu. He doesn't apologize, and he isn't going to acknowledge that he was in the wrong there. As if he ever does. There's a reason there are people who want to run him down with a fruit truck.

"Don't behave unreasonably when I'm doing you a favor, then."

He pushes up his glasses as if to punctuate his sentence, looking down his nose at Takao.
