WESKER → SHUJI Wesker is honestly very fond of Shuji, albeit in a weird sort of way that he doesn't admit to very easily, if he does at all; he's glad that Shuji actually gets it anyway, and he's a lot more willing to let the guy tease him about it a little than he would be if he didn't like him at all - Wesker is a very blunt and aggressively strict person and he's really particular about his personal space, so it honestly says a lot that he'll let Shuji hug him and sit in his bubble sometimes.
He doesn't really know what to do with him all the time, and when he's like that he tends to get kind of short because that's just sort of how he handles things that he doesn't know what to do with - he either does that or he sort of suddenly infodumps a lot of stuff that he's been keeping to himself and there's no way for the other person to know, and he's at least...sort of recognizing that that's not fair? He's trying to step off a little when that happens, because he does like it when Shuji talks to him about stuff and he appreciates that sometimes they can just sit and talk about things. He doesn't have many friends that he can just spend time with, he usually prefers having a purpose to interacting with people in person, and so he actually sort of likes it when Shuji does things like bring him to the shrines and stuff for the new year or hangs out with him outside of general Retrospec whatnot. Basically, Shuji has been really good for him socially? And he does consider him a friend in some way, even if he's very..."what are words" about it.
