Saiki Kusuke is a weird man.
Shiragami knows this. I mean, he's not stupid. Any person with even a bit of observation skill would know this. That man never seems to sleep, yet he always seems energetic and cheerful. He always has a manic smile plastered onto his face. He always smells of oil, and... blood?
Anyway, Shiragami Fudekichi is not someone who tries to pry into someone else's business. Dr. Saiki may seem a bit off-putting at first, back when he asked him to write and draw a small manga as a part of his long term plan to "inconvenience your shitty editor", but he doesn't mind it all that much now.
In fact, he quite likes his company. Saiki Kusuke is a very positive person, no matter how much his little brother tries to convince Shiragami otherwise. He's quite funny, and very smart. He also enjoys the mangaka's works, which he appreciates very much. They've been getting tea together every weekend ever since the shoe-licking manga incident, and Shiragami enjoys their little hangouts.
It took quite a while for Shiragami to realize that he's taken a liking to the strange scientist.
