poooossibly looking for games. canon is hyouka!

[conserve]

[ there are several things wrong with this situation. if he wanted to, houtarou can count them all off his fingers without needing to pause for breath, but he doesn't, and so he won't, because he's been around chitanda long enough to know that, sometimes (read: all of the time), he just can't win.

(though let it be known that he's already thought of twelve.) ]

No.

[ and still, he tries! if you can call that trying, because he knows his mun, and he knows the terrible, awful, no good places she could bring him to, and he should fight for his salvation, shouldn't he? or something.

Where's the line between fighting and begging for mercy?

quickly--! what would chitanda do? ]

Please.

[ Damn, I crossed it. ]

[This guy is thinking pretty intensely. Don't hurt yourself.]

Please, what?

[ whoa look at his hair. ]

[conserve]

Please, no. [ and, because he knows the guy will ask. ] To everything.

[coaches]

To everything? That's a little broad, you should narrow it down if you really want to get your point across.

[conserve]

Narrowing it down leaves her too many opportunities to find a loophole. With a catch-all answer, I can eliminate any chance for a rebuttal instantly.

[ and ultimately save himself a lot of time, which is the whole point, anyway. ]

[conserve]

[ ...seriously, though, look at his hair.

If I touch it, will I burn? ]

[brightens]

No what?

[ there are several ways to answer this. no to games, to memes, to the constant gushing over his bedhead that his mun just won't shut up about, et cetera, et cetera...

let's see, let's see... how could he best sum this up... ]

[conserve]

[ --ah. ]

[conserve]

Life.

[brightens]

No... life? [ ... what. ]

What do you mean? You seem to be doing pretty good at it so far.

[callitdatabase]

[ look who's here to make it worse ] That's no good, Houtarou. [ scolding scolding ] If you're weak to one girl, that's romantic but if you're weak to more than one [ fingerpoint ] that just makes you a mega-playboy!

[conserve]

[ Oi oi... can you really say that to me, considering your situation with Ibara? ]

Pleading doesn't always imply weakness. [ even if that's definitely the case for him right now... his point still stands! ]

[playerkills]

Rejected.

[conserve]

[ So hasty! ]

[conserve]

[ ...wait. who even are you? ]

I don't think you have that kind of power.

[playerkills]

Your mun was speaking through me. This interaction isn't actually happening. It's all in her mind. [ yozora stop ] Sorry for debunking your theory.

[parttimer]

Did it work? [ begging for mercy he means ]
