[ karkat doesn't reply right away, since he has to stop and seriously think about this. yosuke's..... everything... is pretty identical to the standard Straight Dude Who Says "No Homo" When He Holds A Door Open For Another Dude." but... if you look at that from another angle, couldn't it just be someone who is very in denial with their sexuality? ]
That..... You know what, if that's true, it would make his reaction at prom make a thousand fucking times more sense because even with the explanation he gave you, it's still sketchy as hell.
My brother said the same thing. He suggested the real reason might be that Yosuke was jealous, though I haven't wanted to picture it. I thought I was just deluding myself, but this gift... I don't think I've ever seen him look happier than when I told him I loved it.
The real question is if it's worth it to try to confess.
I think it might depend on whether or not he is still denying his potentially not straight sexuality? If he's still all fucked up about it then he might reject your confession just because he's not ready yet. Sooo it's probably ANOTHER question, and this one is, where is his current position in the closet.
Do you need me to step in? The topic occasionally comes up in my conversations with him somehow so it probably wouldn't be too out of left field if I casually brought it up.

[ he's kind of c o m p l e t e l y freaking out ]
no subject
Did he give a reason why????
He had to have said something unless he just tossed the thing through your window and ran.

Do friends really give each other gifts this extravagant for graduation...?
no subject
I want to say yes, something, but I think it also depends on how much money they even have.
Is he fucking rich or something?
no subject
[ so ... no.
like, this would have taken weeks and weeks of saving kind of no. ]
no subject
Ever???
no subject
I mentioned a few months ago that I didn't own a keyboard, so... just how long has he been planning this...?
no subject
Ok so new line of questioning.
Besides really confused as SHIT over this development, how else are you feeling?
no subject

OK SO NEXT QUESTION
What's the game plan here?
Are you going to outgift him?
no subject
Actually, I've been thinking... Karkat, do you think he could possibly feel the same way?
no subject
That.....

I trust you, Karkat.
[ so: you have his permission, if you think it'll work, is what he's saying. ]
no subject
[ so like 90% of all of karkat's conversations, basically. ]
But I'll see if I can do something useful with it this time.
no subject
Thank you. I mean it. I'll take you out, okay? Anywhere you want.
no subject
I will cash that in.
