If Kaneki was interested in another literature piece right then, Hide wouldn't be surprised. You knew it, Kaneki could probably be the biggest nerd ever live, having a book together with him all days and nights, pages opened whenever Kaneki felt like it. His loyalty to book almost made Hide jealous, but he had seen it in some rare moments, where Kaneki will discard his love as words began to clog his mind.
Those days were the obvious proof that Hide can be a better company than the printed piece and yet Kaneki always said all of Hide’s being was too loud for his nature. Hide understood it. He can be too manly to be handle by some people, and seem like Kaneki also fall into the weak category.

“They are a massive wave of fans. Can you believe it?” Hide flailed his hands around as he talked, once in a while his eyes would drift to his side just in case Kaneki had picked up his book again.

I can't believe I don't check on them sooner.”
