sticky-blueExhibit A:
Nicknames.
Bro gave me a nickname CALLED ADIDDY. AND I GAVE HIM ONE CALLED SEAL. HE LAUGHED SO HARD HE ALMOST DOUBLED OVER.
sticky-blueExhibit B: Inside Joke Empire. bro we have so many inside jokes that its weirdly crazy. One is him saying he got more marks than me and MEWING, not joking. then one is like the CRACKED FRACTURE joke. another is the idli vada sambar one (super annoying)
sticky-blueExhibit C: Constant. I MEAN constant banter. like if we get put into a group. we don't do the work. we argue about like nothing at all. like once abt how he didnt watch the reels i sent him. once abt marks. once abt him shipping me with our teacher. LIKE BRO WHAT.

sticky-blueExhibit D: Random Staring/Looking. Like bro randomly jst starts looking at me. During exams also, like before the exam, he jst looked at me from across the room. ACROSS MAN. and like even my guy bsf noticed and my other friend.
sticky-blueExhibit E: TEN MILLION INTERACTIONS? Like bro, he used to sit right in front of me, and now he sits right behind me. and like he always finds some excuse to talk to me. EVEN IF I DONT HAVE A WATCH. bro goes - adiddy. what's the time. and like he always teases me and like stuff.
sticky-blueExhibit F: We somehow always end up in the SAME GROUP. my english teacher put us in the same group like three times. IM IN THE SAME GROUP IN GP. i got put in the same one in SCIENCE ONE. LIKE WHY BRO
DO THEY KNOW SMTH?
sticky-blueExhibit H: Continuation of Exhibit D. SO basically, i was talking to my guy bsf abt like how i scored a goal and managed two saves in my football match when i noticed him looking down from above (steps okay) and I looked up and we maintained eye contact until i looked away and finished my convo and went off with my other friends.
sticky-blueExhibit I: INSTAGRAM. SO bro basically sent a rq to me outta nowhere to follow. and like I accepted cuz why not. and like a few times, bro has looked at my stories within two or three hours of me posting. conincidence. mostly yeab.
sticky-blueExhibit J: the whispering. so basically, i was in computer lab when i noticed him and his friend in the row in front of me like whispering. i didnt look, my peripheral vision did. like his friend looked at me, whispered. then looked again. whispered and then laughed outta nowehere. and the like they were whispering in robotics class too, like maybe a class after the lab class.
sticky-blueExhibit L: Our class teacher thinks we are friends somehow. This note explains itself. No need for background info
sticky-blueExhibit K: My Guy BSF's Theory. So he thinks that this guy likes me and he's using his friend as a wingman of some sort. evidence is low for this theory.
textEnd of Investigation: An unusually specific, ridiculously lore-heavy friendship, and there are enough additional signals that the MORE THAN FRIENDS hypothesis is reasonably plausible.

sticky-blueExhibit G: Hand contact? idk what to call this one. but like when i was playing kings the other day, i somehow ended up near him without noticing and was balancing on one leg while using two tables as supports. his table was one. bro like used his ENTIRE ARM to like try pushing off my arm twic. and he went - very bad adiddy. cheating anol. and cuz he couldnt get it off, he went - how much idli vada sambar do you eat adiddy and we both started laughing. and then IN MUSIC OKAY. he was standing far far away. and he moved this guy from near me, put himself DAMN NEXT TO ME. LIKE 0.1 CMS AWAY. and he brushed against me twice. like im not mad, and im not imaginiing it. cuz i felt the WARMTH. YES.
