You recognize them from when you did your online research, and now that you’re seeing them in person, you realize that this is a much better alternative, and expected for your blood caste as well! Since they’re right there, you might as well walk up and ask a few questions, it wouldn’t hurt to get some info, would it? 20:50:46

> You'll do some digging into that claim later. Based on a few eyewitness accounts and your own conclusions drawn from past sleeps, you're sure you slept anything but soundly that night. You're also sure that they're lying to make you feel better about your tossing and turning, why? Has he managed to grow.. not attached but something of a lesser degree towards you? The thought of that freaks you out. You eat more noodles. Now's your turn to tell your version of the truth, whatever that might be. You think carefully before speaking. "Before, you would avoid answering my questions in an obvious lie or a fun deflection. The lack of energy now just makes the guessing games tiring. Either tell me the truth or stop answering." You're never that straightforward but you're not in the mood for all the antics. You're tired and it feels like he's unintentionally dragging you down with him by being so redundant. 22:02:41

>"Decent enough." He heard the tumble and smelled his matesprit. "Tobira are you alright?" 22:04:29

culinaryMisdoings [] joined chat. ~~ 9 ~~ 22:05:19

> "I'm alright. Doc said it'll be a speedy recovery, so I'm taking what available time I got for shadow boxing and practicing old tricks." they walk over, only a slight limp it seems. 22:05:20

> oh no, if you had known BOTH of them were this banged up you would have met them at a different time! Oh well, too late now… “alright, how about we go take a seat at the table shall we?” 22:09:09

> "Waaay ahead of you." limpy limp on over to have a a nice seat. They sigh in comfort, albeit likely sitting in a plastic or metal seat. 22:12:35

> “ so I know I don’t know much about the both of you, so for starters, what has got both of you in college?” For only a day, it seems she has definitely improved on her grammar, it seems she has really been learning a lot since the spar 22:19:47

>…but for MC it was just another troll asking questions 22:20:24

> You were already done with your second bowl by this point. Where does it all go? You always had a theory about why your appetite is vast as the ocean is dangerous... but for the sake of simplicity, you'll just say it's a seadweller thing. You don't think you have it in you to sigh anymore, but either way, you want to and so you do, "Tell you the truth about what?" If they really thought any of your "lies" were obvious they probably should have called you out more consistently, but you guess that's just their game. Either way you don't concern yourself with those thoughts. You don't care. It won't matter. 22:20:25

> They smiled. "Well, you improved a lot on your speech. Nice. I came to expand on my cooking hobbies and learn more clurch stuff since i was out of that my whole life." 22:22:18

> You haven't even made it halfway through your first bowl yet, and you've only eaten maybe two gyoza. Honestly this is more than you usually eat, you're used to running on as little maintenance as possible, it helps you work longer. "About everything i'm asking. Don't play dumb." You shouldn't care so much about what makes him tick. It's none of your business but somehow you can't get over it. Maybe it's the lack of any other interesting stimuli? Sure everyone else has their lives but they're so upfront about it. You're sure they have secrets too, maybe if you weren't apparently fated to keep bumping into Zegama.. "If you don't want to tell me the truth thats fine, just don't lie. Switch the subject if you don't want to answer." Maybe another day you'll be back on your old routine, but today your usual dance just makes you frustrated. Maybe it's more than hunger, you're eating so it can't be. You don't want to think about the other possibilities that could be the source of this random outburst. Well it isn't an outburst yet, and you certainly intend to keep any hint of emotion inside. Let it bubble down and hopefully it will go away. You don't even have a reason to be angry or annoyed, if anything you should feel bad for him. You shift your gaze to your food, this entire interaction is getting to you. Maybe you should take a nap. 22:58:38

> For whatever ever reason, a spark is lit and in a flash, a crash is heard from the bar counter; you had smacked it. From the sound of it, it seemed like you were aggravated- yet you're completely calm. You're as apathetic and lackadaisical as before. You're not surprised you did it, but you figured that was just some intrusive thought that would've stayed just that: a thought. You don't think you've... no, you did have one of those reactions earlier. When that random wannabe villain troll was arguing with Tobira about some sort of personal matter. Probably pertaining to MC. And they were saying something about... uhh... hm. Mmm... you don't care to remember the words of someone filled with so much cowardice in the worst possible way, but they just... were talking. You raise your hand off the counter and look to it. What was it all about? "Hm. Sorry about that everyone." You wave to the staff with a vague smile. You'd managed to even crack the countertop a bit. You turn your attention back to them, "Anyways, that sounds like a coward's choice to change the subject so suddenly." Is that all it was? You don't know. You don't care, it's fine. "Either way, refresh my memory on what your questions are... a lot's been going on so keeping track of things with my head is rough right now." 23:13:23

> What the fuck was that? You jumped when he hit the counter but now you're kind of just watching the crack. That was certainly weird as hell. "uh" Hopefully no one gets mad at that. Now what were your questions? "Well we started the conversation with me asking what's wrong with you, you refused to believe that you aren't in great condition even though you have all the energy of a block of dirt. I asked where you work, why you wanted to tag along and why you would want to be around me not to mention miss talking to me. Most of the conversation so far has just been me trying to convince you that you need to sleep or deal with whatever your problem is." Those aren't questions but hopefully he can interpret it into questions himself. 23:20:04

> "Right, right." You've answered about your job. You recall saying you're okay. You got it, it's all locked in- for now, anyways. "What makes you think I haven't been sleeping? I slept a good while once I came back. Maybe I've been sleeping too much. How long did I sleep those past few nights when... hmm..." you're off in the enigma of your pan again, before you come tumbling out with the answer, "Right, about 14 hours? Somewhere around there. When I first got back I slept for at least 11 everyday, then the past few days I was sleeping harder till I had to spar with Tobira and my blockmate. Before those few days, I sparred with MK so I was probably sleeping just as hard... The only time I haven't had any sleep was yesterday." Look at you, halfway through your third bowl and already leveled three servings of your six gyoza. "I sleep fine. My energy is fine- good enough to be sparring obviously.. hm... But what's wrong? Hm... I..." you don't think another 'fine' will do it for them. You're probably a few more 'fines' from them leaving you here and even though you think you're okay with every and anything, you guess you could... give them something? You're not sure what, but it's hard to tell when it feels like your head's nothing more than a paperweight with no substance. You have memories and thoughts, but none of it feels... concrete. "I.. guess I'm alone? With everything going on, I guess it's just... me. No matter the cost, I think it'll only be me..." 23:45:51
