preybeforemeals: (AH... ♞ why did i ask about homestuck)

[..................................]

...Somehow, I don't think "finally" is the word you wanted there.

[HORI, WHY...]

If I'm finally leaving a casket of any sort, I think you have larger problems.
shuttermouse: (OH ❈ who invited the rube)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ WHY NOT ]

Such as?
preybeforemeals: (DISMISS ♞ oh - that was your girl?)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
The hordes of the undead, perhaps.

[MOVING ON...]

How long has it been, anyway? If it's truly been "a lot longer" than the span of time that I remember - how long have you been without me, exactly?
shuttermouse: (DEFAULT ❈ bro you are embarrassing)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Three years! You've been so gloomy and boring and impossible to talk to.
preybeforemeals: (EVEN ♞ as your best friend i insist)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
Three years.

[You know, he really should be more surprised than he is that that particular complaint is being lodged against an apparently dead person. Were it anyone else saying it, he probably would be; as it stands, however...yes, he'd imagine the corpse was incredibly boring and impossible to talk to, he has no idea why you thought it would be otherwise, but sure. Fine.

There are a lot of questions to be asked, the most pressing being focused on what happened, exactly, but now isn't the time to ask them; this isn't something he wants to think about for too long right now because it's just so made of "what" that he doesn't know what to do with it outside of disregard it.

So! Disregard it he shall, and he lets his fingers rake lightly through that sweep at the front of his hair, and he's still smiling when he speaks.]


Well! Obviously I'm perfectly fine now, so I'd say it hardly matters for the time being.
shuttermouse: (DISCUSS ❈ they're for my model)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 07:19 am (UTC)(link)
[ It's a good thing he disregarded it; Chie wouldn't have dispensed any major deets concerning the...everything that happened because she'd rather avoid risking another angst coma so from now on she's going to tactfully omit information she doesn't think he needs to know.

She appreciates that he doesn't start bombarding her with questions, really. ]


...You should buy me a parfait. One of those big ones.
preybeforemeals: (DISMISS ♞ oh - that was your girl?)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
Already...? Ah, but I shouldn't be surprised that you're looking out for yourself, even now, right?

[It doesn't take him long to settle into the usual pattern, really; this is comfortable, and perhaps more importantly it's familiar, and he can't say that either are unwelcome right about now.]
shuttermouse: (OH ❈ who invited the rube)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, you shouldn't. [ She pauses, turning her attention to the camera and tinkers with the settings while Pikachu the Emolga watches with vague interest. ]

I think I'm in the mood for chocolate and strawberries today. They do have strawberries here, right?
preybeforemeals: (ARROGANCE ♞ mhmm sure she did)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
They do - actual strawberries, not just the strangely-colored ones. If you find anything that looks even vaguely like a strawberry on the routes, however...well, I'll warn you not to touch it.
shuttermouse: (CURIOUS ❈ that's an interesting print)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 03:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I know better than to eat unfamiliar berries. Are they poisonous?
preybeforemeals: (EVEN ♞ as your best friend i insist)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not as though I have firsthand experience! But not to my knowledge - they're just enough to ruin your day, and a few days afterwards.
shuttermouse: (PARFAIT ❈ the way to a girl's kokoro)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll definitely stay away from those things, then. [ She'd rather not have any of her days ruined, thanks. ]

What are we waiting for? Come on, let's go to a nice cafe so you can buy me a parfait.
preybeforemeals: (CASUAL ♞ jealous of your cigarette)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[He just laughs a bit at that, shaking his head.]

One would think you hadn't seen a parfait in three years, either.

[That said, come on, you. He knows where to get some absolute shitkicker parfaits around here.]

It's lucky that we met up like this, either way; I've been here a while, I've gotten to know the area very well.
shuttermouse: (GAZE ❈ those shoes with that dress)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
How long have you been here? Kanae-kun didn't say anything about you going on a Pokémon journey.

[ Maybe he was too busy wailing dramatically to notice???? ]
preybeforemeals: (HM? ♞ who invited the rube)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[...]

...Why in the world are you consulting Kanae about anything?

[i mean ngl that boy means well but he's dumb as hell]
shuttermouse: (OH ❈ who invited the rube)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
You were busy being boring so I turned to him. He talks to his rose about you a lot.
preybeforemeals: (CASUAL ♞ jealous of your cigarette)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well, if that fazes him any, it's not apparent in his response - it's prompt and about as flippant as ever.]

After so long, somehow I'm not surprised...so how old are you now? You continue to not look a day over sixteen; keep that up and I'll start having to ask you what your secret is.

[...okay and by "not a day over sixteen" he really means "not a day over twelve" but you know what no one needs to go there right now]
shuttermouse: (CONTENT ❈ my bff eats people)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ ...thank you, Tsukiyama. ]

I'm twenty-four!
preybeforemeals: (AH... ♞ why did i ask about homestuck)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Ah.]

Really.

[That's...a little unsettling for a lot of reasons, actually.]
Edited (html...) 2014-12-28 19:41 (UTC)
preybeforemeals: (ARROGANCE ♞ mhmm sure she did)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[Okay, so he can look forward to dying like hell a very short while after he returns to Tokyo. Good to know.]

I really ought to ask you what your secret is, then.

[...]

Although if you say it's parfait...

[he swears to god hori don't you even]
shuttermouse: (CONTENT ❈ my bff eats people)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Jokingly: ]

French fries with lots of ketchup.
preybeforemeals: (DISMISS ♞ oh - that was your girl?)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-28 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[oh goddammit]

Life is short, n'est-ce pas?
shuttermouse: (DEFAULT ❈ bro you are embarrassing)

[personal profile] shuttermouse 2014-12-28 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
It sure is. And you haven't given up the random French, I see.

[ ...are they at the cafe yet because if they are she's going to order one of these disasters. ]
preybeforemeals: (AH... ♞ why did i ask about homestuck)

[personal profile] preybeforemeals 2014-12-30 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
[HORI, NO

my god since coming here he has developed a greater understanding of two things

1. exactly how good those parfaits actually are, and
2. how utterly disgusting it is that you can actually eat all that in one sitting

i mean he'll let you do it but hell if he knows how]


Well, it seems some things never change for both of us.
