[BACKDATED TO SOME TIME THAT ISN'T A BOSS FIGHT like January 23 I guess] [video]

[So. Man. Out of nowhere, Kayneth's got all these feelings.

Feelings of familial devotion for people he's met like once. What are their names, even? There's that one guy who looks like he's never been out in the sun ever who he's currently assuming is his brother or something, he's got feelings of fatherly devotion for that one kid who made an ass of himself over magic and that other kid who... was not actually that bad, given that he gave him helpful information and didn't try to punch him in the face.

And he still feels like he's forgetting someone. Or maybe two someones. Man. What the hell kind of aristocrat can't remember his own family members' names? Get with the program, Kayneth.

Well, anyway, what... do you do with these feelings... quality family time, right? Or do you just completely ignore them until they do something praiseworthy.

...MAYBE HE COULD JUST TAKE THEM ALL OUT TO A REALLY EXPENSIVE DINNER...]

It's come to my attention that some of you suddenly feel like family to me, despite the fact that we've never met before and have only really had brief conversations. I don't see any good reason to let that get in the way of anything, of course, so I've decided to take you all out to dinner. I'll pay, of course.

[THIS IS THE MOST GENEROUS HE'LL EVER BE.]

[breatheinthefog]

If you think so.

[enjoymyatelier]

That's... just how it is.

[christ this conversation is awkward...]

[breatheinthefog]

This world has too many rules. *Shrugs and keeps walking.*

[enjoymyatelier]

Rules exist for a reason, you know.

[breatheinthefog]

I know, but most of the constructs they regulate don't matter.

[enjoymyatelier]

What do you mean?

[breatheinthefog]

*Shrug.* There are a lot of things here that are pointless.

[enjoymyatelier]

Oh, I would agree with that-just not to the same extent.

[breatheinthefog]

Then what do you say is pointless, if not everything? I don't get it.

[enjoymyatelier]

Attempting things that are clearly impossible, for one.

[breatheinthefog]

You're right. That is.

[enjoymyatelier]

Along with doing things with no clear purpose in mind, of course.

[breatheinthefog]

Then what's your purpose?

[enjoymyatelier]

In life, you mean?

[breatheinthefog]

If you want to take it that way.

[enjoymyatelier]

The pursuit of knowledge, mostly.

[PERSONAL ADVANCEMENT PERSONAL ADVANCEMENT PERSONAL ADVANCEMENT]

[breatheinthefog]

Mostly. *shrugs*

[enjoymyatelier]

Well, there are very few people who are satisfied with working towards just one goal, after all.

[breatheinthefog]

Hm. I suppose.

*B|*

[enjoymyatelier]

[well this is awkward.

AT LEAST THE RESTAURANT ISN'T TOO FAR OFF]

[breatheinthefog]

*Indeed! There it is, saving you from existential rambling with a deadpan kid.*

Oh. So that's what one looks like.

[enjoymyatelier]

[he can handle a little existentialism, but really...]

...You've never seen a restaurant before.

[breatheinthefog]

*Kaoru just linefaces and doesn't reply. Observing what everyone else is doing, she gets in the line and reads the menu on the wall to pass the time.*

[enjoymyatelier]

[sigh, lines

normally his name would be enough to get him automatically moved to the front, but that's not how it is here, is it

well he's too dignified to make a scene, although it's pretty obvious he's not happy with this, given that he's impatiently tapping his foot.]

[breatheinthefog]

What's the problem now?
