Re: January plottings and Christmas Shenanigans

[distressedude]

I'm afraid I can't approve of what you're planning at all. You know as well as I do that it's only going to bring trouble. Wouldn't a plan like this be better for after the weather has warmed up? I can't bear to think what would happen if something else were to go wrong. Please, can't you try to reconsider?

[He sighs. But that's far from the only thing on his mind right now.]

And for that matter... what exactly is "eggnog"?

The only thing you're good at is getting into trouble.

[distressedude]

[Sync Sync you're doing that thing where willingly talking to Ion gives him ideas about how ~Friendship is Magic~ and whatnot.]

[TOMODACHIIIIIIIIII]



I suppose in some ways that's true, though this is hardly an ordinary circumstance.

[trashed]

[WOW NO he's only here because his mun made him come here. Don't think he's happy to see you or anything. :T]

Some ways? It's completely true and you know it.

[distressedude]

It's hardly the only thing I'm good at. [/implying he agrees that he's good at it...??]

Besides, wouldn't that be like saying the only thing you're good at is causing trouble?

[trashed]

Oh yeah? What else, then? [OH ION--

--Also wow is that supposed to be offensive or something because it's really not.

He just kind of. Stops and stares at him for a second before speaking up again:]

...And what's your point?

[distressedude]

Well, you're good at plenty of other things, aren't you? I don't think it's possible for someone to only be good at one thing.

[trashed]

[Oh geez, he forgot how annoying it was to talk to him...]

No, I'm not.

[Are we going to go down this road again Ion?]

[distressedude]

...so you don't think you're good at fighting?

[Come on bro, there's existential crisis and then there's just bad self-esteem.]

[trashed]

[It's called self-loathing, tyvm. Or would it be existential-loathing...]

Some people would put that under 'causing trouble'.

[distressedude]

Just because the manner in which you put that skill to use would classify as "causing trouble" doesn't diminish the skill in and of itself.

Oh! And I know something else you're good at, too!

[trashed]

[Where's the nearest wall he can smash his head into?]

And what's that? [Does he want to know?]

[distressedude]

Getting your hair to look like that!




[He's serious.]

Since Florian and I were born with this hair style, it's easy to manage without any work. But I've never been able to figure out how you get yours to look that way.

[trashed]

[




He can't even.]

Seriously? What does my hair have to do with anything?

[Not that he'd tell you anything anyway.]

[distressedude]

[Clearly someone gets their hair-care tips from Asch.]

You said you weren't good at anything else, so I wanted to show you why that isn't true. And I'm sure there are plenty of other things if you just stopped to think about them.

[trashed]

[Possibly.]

Is that your goal in life? To make sure I know I'm wrong with everything? [Especially when it came so close, like this subject was getting.] Like I've said before: I'm not going to change my mind.

[distressedude]

Would it make you happier if I told you that you weren't good at anything?

[Sync, he just can't win with you.]

only i would be late to tag back a d_m post

[trashed]

[Nope. You really can't.]

Well at least you'd be telling the truth.

YOU'RE WORTH THE WAIT BBY

[distressedude]

Now, now, here has to be something you're good at. Or perhaps something you enjoy doing? Certainly there's something you do in your spare time, right?

[Unless he just sits around and watches paint dry all day or something.]

AWWW you're so sweeet

[trashed]

[HE MIGHT AS WELL.

Actually, what does he do? Well. In Luceti, he might've just stared at the ceiling, trained, or...tried to figure a way out. But other than that?]

I don't leave spare time for myself.

[aka: nothing, really.]

[distressedude]

Is that so? I can hardly imagine what that would be like...

[Says the boy who was kept locked up so much outside of meetings and score readings that the idea of having no spare time to himself is just ridiculous.]

In that case, perhaps you should try finding a hobby? Then you might have a reason for making time for yourself.

[trashed]

[...Oh Ion.


Hobby. What are hobbies, anyway?]

Why would I care to find a hobby?

[Unless it's tormenting you, that is--]

[distressedude]

Don't you ever get bored?

[No wonder he hates life so much! He's got nothing to do!]

[trashed]

That's a stupid question - of course I get bored.

[PFFFFF that's not the only reason, dude...]

[distressedude]

[NO WAY IT TOTALLY IS.]

Then all the more reason you should try and find a hobby! Or perhaps just something you could enjoy doing?

[trashed]

[DENIAL.]

...Why are we still talking about this??

[distressedude]

Is there something else you'd rather talk about? We can always change the topic of discussion.

[BECAUSE HE ENJOYS TALKING TO SYNC OH SO MUCH~]

[trashed]

I don't want to be talking to you at all.

[AND SYNC HATES EVERYONE.]

[distressedude]

But aren't you the one who started talking to me in the first place?

[Heh.]

[trashed]

It wasn't my idea! It was hers!
