Muse got accepted to both Amatomnes and Paradisa. Mun is thrilled. Muse is not.

[knight_2000]

So. You've decided to re-introduce me to the land of the living. How thoughtful of you. You must be so proud.

I want my real body back, thank you.

Is your name Michael Knight? Are you going to come rescue me from wherever I've found myself? Then you've answered your own question.

[bakery_owner]

.... Your 'prince', I take it? [Yes, he's somewhat joking from his tone. Not that he's judging, as two of his good friends are gay...]

[knight_2000]

My driver. [He's not gay! At least, he thinks he's not gay? There's no guarantee...]

1/2

[bakery_owner]

.....

2/2

[bakery_owner]

You do realize how that sounds, RIGHT?

[knight_2000]

... No? How does it sound? [Genuinely confused now]

[bakery_owner]

Ahhh, never mind!

...so you used to be a car and this Michael Knight guy is your driver. Anything else you'd like to share?

[knight_2000]

Already forgotten.

I think that covers it. Who are you, anyway?

[bakery_owner]

Who, me?

[He points to himself.]

Keiichirou Tachibana. What's your name?

[knight_2000]

Keiichirou Tachibana. Japanese?

KITT. The Knight Industries Two Thousand.

[bakery_owner]

That's right.

... "Knight Industries Two Thousand"?

[Pause.]

Oh, the car thing again?

[knight_2000]

Got it in one. Go me.

You say that as though it surprises you. I've been maintaining it the entire time. Catch up.

[bakery_owner]

It does surprise me! It's not something normal people claim every day!

[knight_2000]

[He's just going to roll his new eyes at you now]

I'm not a normal person.

What do you do, Mr Japanese person?

[bakery_owner]

I work in a bakery.

[He'll leave out the part where he owns the bakery too.]

Do you like pastries?

[knight_2000]

I see. [That answer was rather unexpected]

I have no idea. Should I?

[bakery_owner]

Ah, regardless, you should stop by Antique sometime! We have a world class pastry chef whose cakes are without equal.

[knight_2000]

I'll try to remember that. I haven't actually eaten anything yet. It seems so... human.

[bakery_owner]

You haven't?

[Tachibana's face lights up.]

We should go grab a beer, then!

[Looking for an excuse to go drinking? Never!]

[knight_2000]

Not even once.

[Oh dear]

Isn't that sort of thing supposed to be bad on an empty stomach?

[And why does everyone seem so intent on getting Kitt drunk?]

[bakery_owner]

We can order appetizers too! They taste better than cake anyway!

[Tachibana: Not a fan of sweets.]

[knight_2000]

... If you insist?

[HA, WEIRD]

[bakery_owner]

I do! Come on, I'll take you to this great place...

[HE LIKES OTHER FOOD? And he has his reasons for hating sweets.]

[knight_2000]

Lead the way. [He's feeling a bit more amiable, now. Especially as he's probably hungry?]

[A baker hating sweets? WEIRD]

[bakery_owner]

[I'll keep going if you want to :D--but I don't wanna drag this out if you'd rather stop here. :P

Also, he's not a baker; he's a waiter. And the guy who one day decided he wanted to open a bakery, so he hired on the best pastry chef money could buy.]
