[It's been some time since he's seen her and the circumstances are a lot different this time around, but he can still easily tell she's been working on it.]
Not. Not a game yet. But still put in places I probably should not be.
[Shinon purses his lips, then he gives an annoyed sniff.]
Do they? I know another man who once said something like that to me. He's been dead for a while now, and after all these years, I haven't exactly proven him right.

Mm. Too bad they're not good at making more sound decisions.

Or buying enough food.

...your mun starving you? When did you last eat?
no subject
...and I'm so hungry...

[A beat.]
Unavoidable trouble.

[He sniffs, indignantly.]
It's different when it's not me.
[But don't ask him how, Ranulf, because he's not even sure. It just is.]
no subject
[Now that's just cruel.]
Why not? Is your mun aware of what your -- [Insanely high metabolism.] -- condition does to you when you don't eat?
no subject
He says he doesn't want all his food to vanish.
no subject
No compromise?
[What good would that do, anyway.]
no subject
...are you sure you don't have anything?
no subject
Or teach them the value of patience.
[Like you're one to talk, Lethe.]

[Not that he's doubting it's possible -- he's actually hoping that it is.]

Perhaps force them to wait a set amount of time before doing anything, treat them the children they are.
That icon is the best thing I've seen today.
[And he'll leave it at that, as he waits for the inevitable jab at his character, or his leadership, or anything Shinon can think of.]
no subject
[He even checks his pockets again, right in front of her, to show he's got nothing. Not even some beef jerky.]
no subject
[Excuse him while he chuckles.]
For what it's worth I've never met a Beorc who could overcome adversity better than yourself. How's your mun over their head in things anyway?
no subject
It is one of my favorites.
Sure thing, Commander.
If you've got troubles, you should try drinking. It's what got me through those years while you were in charge.

[... Leanne's been working on her New Tongue, really she has.]

[Especially after witnessing the drunken antics of a certain someone who shall remain nameless. Shinon.]
no subject
I'll take that as a compliment then.
[He shakes his head when the subject veers back toward his mun.]
My mun's so impulsive and thoughtless sometimes, so...
no subject
Not. Not a game yet. But still put in places I probably should not be.
[Memes and all that.]
no subject
[Judging by her raised eyebrow, folded arms, and a certain sharp look at her mun, she doesn't think so.]
no subject
[...although if Leanne's reaction there is anything to go by, maybe being homeless isn't so bad.]
no subject
... Unless a good game can be found.

[He offers the sagest of advice, after all.]
no subject
[Helpful? Probably not.]
You just reminded me to pick up the DVD.
He didn't have any plans for you? None at all?
[And here he thought only his mun did that sort of thing.]
no subject
I listen to advice from everyone, not just my elders. Wisdom comes with age, true, but things change. People change.
[Hint, hint.]
/bows. I have an unhealthy obsession with this show. I have an Evan muse too
David Simon is god.
[Imagine that. Guess he ought to be more forgiving towards his mun, then.]

Shinon, is there something you want to say?
no subject
[There's not much that gets Shinon more than when Ike has the gall to sound just like Greil.]
That he is.
