okay i’m not the biggest ryureo person BUT i rlly like how shidou steps in when isagi starts heavily questioning reo abt where kunigami is (esp since reo prob blames himself for kunigami being eliminated & isagi saying “kunigami wld never let it end like this” makes it sound like he’d choose kunigami over reo)
it j seems like he’s trying to take attention off reo by revealing that it was him who eliminated kunigami, which is nice considering it’s shidou of all people - who’s very NOT nice and has mocked and straight up assaulted people for being ‘weak’ 😭
ofc it could j be him taking credit for eliminating kunigami - mocking him for being weak & making fun of isagi for being upset over it, but it’s clear him & reo have formed some sort of friendship (????) throughout the 2nd selection (def him j taking the piss out of reo & reo hating him) so it’s weird that he chooses to go after kuni/isagi rather than join isagi in questioning (terrorising) reo
could j be me COMPLETELY missing the point of this interaction but i thought it was cool 😭
