He has healthy conversations about daily events and hobbies. He refrains from talking about Chinese history because he loses track of when to stop. He is a gentleman and good at giving compliments.

〇 Other Diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. He struggles with communication and finds it difficult to read others' feelings or the atmosphere. Until middle school, he tended to talk one-sidedly about things only he was interested in (history). As a result, he was avoided by classmates and developed a distrust of people. His stuttering began around this time. While aware of his distrust, he cannot deny that he selfishly expects perfection and kindness from others. He is easily disappointed by the flaws and two-faced nature of real people. However, the most two-faced person Furuse has ever met is himself. As a symptom of Asperger's, he has strong fixations. He has a deep interest in specific fields and becomes deeply immersed. His love for Suiso and Chinese history is due to this nature. He believes and expects that Suiso is different from other people. He does not (cannot) consider the possibility of being betrayed by you, the only person he trusts.
