Madoka opened his mouth to insist that yes, it made sense, and no, Graham wasn't stupid.
But then he paused.
And thought.
And the more he thought about it...
"O-oh my gosh. You're right."
But that's not really what happened, is it? ...Wait a minute, where was Faqir before he came and found me? W-what were they doing...?!
"I-I can't believe I didn't think about that!" Madoka gasped. "I-it's not stupid at all! That would be like..."
Like Faussin and Levi...gyaah! Madoka, don't even let your mind go there! That's definitely not happening! E-even if Clair was definitely acting super weird around him that one time and...o-oh my gosh!
"That's super weird! W-why was I not paying attention? Of course this must be awkward for you! I-if my best friend ran off and...w-wait, actually, C-Clair did do that. A-and it was weird! This is weird! No wonder you feel so weird!" Madoka's head spun. He bit his lip, patting Graham's back. "D-don't worry, I promise not to go run off and...w-well, the only person I'm interested in turned out to be a boy so obviously that's not happening! A-ah, geez, n-now I feel all weird too...i-it's okay, I'm super jealous of Levi being so close to Fauss even though I'm pretty sure they don't see each other like that or anything, s-so I guess in a way I kinda get it? Not exactly, though, because this is...s-since when was this happening? Has this been going on right under our noses and we were just too blind to see it? Almost literally in my case!"
It made sense the more that he thought about it--Mercy must have gotten overwhelmed, so maybe after Faqir calmed her down he took advantage of her vulnerability in the moment to...
But Faqir isn't that much of a jerk, is he? ...Is he?!
Oh crap! I have to hurry back to Levi before it's too late!
"D-do you think we should say anything? N-no, probably not...ah. b-but what if we're just misunderstanding things...? No...no, I don't think...I'm worried about Levi all of a sudden! And you! Y-you probably shouldn't spend too much time alone with Faqir, okay?"
