On threeways.

[temptsfate]

Hmph. Despite what you might believe, I really don't think Edgar needs to be consoled about his dubious love life choices.

Comments

[edgar_roni]

...don't you start.

[temptsfate]

I wouldn't dream of it.

[edgar_roni]

[See this sideglance? Yeah, it's for you. Because he's not buying what you're selling.]

Of course you wouldn't. You being the upstanding citizen that you are.

[temptsfate]

[That sideglance just doesn't work with the decor. Could he get a refund?]

You insult me. I'll have you know that I'd never be caught being anything close to society's vision of an upstanding citizen.

[edgar_roni]

[All sales final.]

How silly of me to think you decent. Do forgive me, you vile, scarred, alcoholic kidnapper.

[temptsfate]

[Preens a bit.] Of course, anything for a friend.

[gesta_chan]

I'M NOT GOING TO DIGNIFY THIS WITH A RESPONSE

[edgar_roni]

[Keywords, mother fucker. So there.]

[gesta_chan]

It's really too bad that the King of Doma got poisoned and all...

What say you we go over the terms of our alliance again~

[edgar_roni]

Oh, absolutely. But we should go over a few disclaimers first, such as

[edgar_roni]

DIE IN A FIRE.

[gesta_chan]

There's no need to be so hostile.

I'm sure if we come together, we can reach an agreement that is most... satisfactory to the both of us.

[edgar_roni]

[6:10:50. Equip chainsaw.]

Run.

[gesta_chan]

[But it's nowhere close to 6:10:50!]

[edgar_roni]

[It is on his watch, mother fucker. Rev rev.]

[temptsfate]

[So what's next, painting his picture?]

[edgar_roni]

[What's next is leaving you in a burning building with nothing but shitty magic users around to "save" you.]

[temptsfate]

[...they really were shitty magic users, weren't they? You'd think that the Thamasians would've invested in better fire combatting techniques given the overabundance of young mages throwing around low budget fire spells.]

[edgar_roni]

[They kept a lot of fire rods in that house, and -- wait. I'm mad at you.]

[temptsfate]

[Details.]

[edgar_roni]

[Flames. Lots of them, from what Locke and Terra have said. If only you were there, Setzer.

If only.]

[temptsfate]

[If only. Then everyone could enjoy the wonder and delight of staring at the Floating Continent and wondering how the hell they'd get up there.]

[edgar_roni]

[Whatever; they would have figured something out. You're a glorified chauffeur.]

[paintbrushes]

[Hey! She will have you know that she was totally in control of that situation, thank-you-very-much.

She just let everyone else have their moment of glory. True story.

[edgar_roni]

[That wasn't the story he heard from Locke. But whatever works for you, Relm. Whatever works.]

what is this I don't even

[ethereal_earth]

[aria_di_celes]

[Hrm....]

[Celes certainly hopes that this isn't about that incident.]

[edgar_roni]

[... It could be.]

[temptsfate]

[If it is, see previous statement about not consoling King Edgar about that.]

[edgar_roni]

[Haters to the left. Don't be jealous.]

[lockpick]

[MEANWHILE: TO THE LEFT.]

[edgar_roni]

[Locke, you do realize you're replacing Setzer in the scenario with yourself, don't you?]

[temptsfate]

[Which begs the question of just what the Returners really were doing before he showed up.]

[edgar_roni]

[Enjoying your absence, of course.]

[lockpick]

[is pleading the fifth a thing in fantasy-steampunk-renaissance-world]

[because if it is, Locke pleads the fifth]

[aria_di_celes]

[Nothing they weren't doing after he showed up.]

[paintbrushes]

S' pretty difficult to console him about it when dubious love life choices're pretty much all he does. It'd be like consoling Locke over how treasure chests open and their contents vanish in his presence.

[temptsfate]

Exactly. And if anything, if the consolers are women it would only encourage him.
