[Ouch. That's worse than he meant to make him feel... maybe. Daichi's not a professional at reading what the Datekou ace is feeling but he can see that he feels bad about skipping out. That's a start, at least.
The bow is a surprise, though. He scratches at the back of his neck a little, then nods.]
It's a good arrangement for everybody. You'll get to practice with a pretty full team, and we'll get the benefit of you playing against you as a defender. Plus sometimes we all get food or something after. You'd be welcome to come to that as well.
[It's a careful offer but a serious one. Come on, Aone. Bond with your fellow volleys.]
[He nods a few times. Okay, that doesn't sound so bad. But it's so hard to be around people who don't understand him? Hmmmm...]
I'll... come...
[Almost like a full sentence there, wow! He looks pretty determined about this though. He's gonna see it through and actually come to practices and stuff!!]
[Maybe Hinata will be able to help. If not, well. They'll figure something out.]
Good! And, you know... if there's anything else we can do, since you're here without your team, just ask.
You can text if it's easier.
[Daichi has no idea if it's easier but he knows nobody should be alone here. Akaashi's self-sufficient and Kenma's bonded pretty well with Hinata but he thinks Aone might need some shepherding.]
[And Daichi definitely sees it. That answers that question, then.]
All right. I'll look forward to seeing you there, then, and if you need anything, really. Just text me, all right?
[He can't really tell if Aone's just not good with words or if he's stubborn or... what his deal is, really, but he'll keep pushing until he gets results. That's Daichi's way.]

Text!
[It is soooo much easier for him to talk over text, pfff.]

'kay.
[He will definitely keep his end of this! If he needs something, he'll be texting Daichi.
Thank you, volleyball dad. ;u; ]
