Summary
Kanzaki Kaoru never considered himself a touchy person. He got uneasy when people got too close, tense shoulders and set jaw and awkward demeanor, he planted himself at absolute minimum a meter away from anyone he was with, he didn't initiate high-fives or handshakes or fist-bumps, only hesitantly taking the opportunity when offered by another person.
That didn't explain anything about the past few months.
Ever since joining the Phantom Busters, Kaoru's personal space has been invaded more times than he could count. He wanted more.
Or:
Kanzaki Kaoru finds himself actively seeking people out despite the anti-social habits his past self built. And it's embarrassing. And scary. But it's also the happiest he's ever been.
