[Maybe Katsuki can be relieved a little, since Shouto definitely doesn't seem to take the words as a compliment. After all, hasn't Katsuki called him perfect as an insult before? He doesn't seem to think of it as an insult, either, though. He just looks...a little sad, maybe, or lost in thought, his voice quieter as he looks at his tea.]

I'm not perfect, though. I've got plenty of faults. You call me out on some of them, and I like that, too. I need that, I think. So I guess, thanks. For reminding me that I'm not, and I don't have to pretend to be. You're a good friend.
