homeless and whatnot

[unmaskedfate]

It is the fate of all muses to become disused and forgotten, yet you would still pursue this.

Hmph. Your hunt for "icons" does not concern me. I will not entertain any part of this nonsense.

[dueltails]

While your mun is at it, maybe they can find some of you without that stupid mask on.

[unmaskedfate]

My mundane will do no such thing. It would be akin to revealing my face to the entire world.

… More or less.

[dueltails]

I'm sure there's some fanart out there of you without it, gods. Why do you insist on wearing it here? You might get mistaken for a renegade of that one group.

[unmaskedfate]

Whether it exists or not is irrelevant. I'm certain my mundane would sooner not bend to your petty whims. [Is he, though.]

Regardless, I doubt anyone would be foolish enough to associate me with that group. Their masks may be more… stylish, perhaps, but mine undoubtedly wins out in practicality.

[dueltails]

I'll pay your mun to do it.

[ ... ] No, I won't give up any of my hard-earned money--[ It's a tough life swindling goods from various supports. ]--for this cause, but I could if I wanted to.

All people who wear masks in this place are creepy. Hello? Haven't you heard about it? People are going to associate you with these creeps.

[unmaskedfate]

Must you select such wretched examples? Would someone like this not be more apt?

Honestly, if Lucina were present, I doubt you would be so open with your disgust toward masks.

[tolight]

Would we truly be forgotten?

... Perhaps disused, but never quite forgotten.

[unmaskedfate]

I suppose it would depend.

There are some who are more readily forgettable than others. Is that not true?

[tolight]

You make a fair case.

However - would you consider yourself to be forgettable, Gerome?

[unmaskedfate]

… Perhaps.

Admittedly, I would find it difficult to judge my own, ah, forgetability. If… you are willing to weight in on the matter, Lucina, then I would take your words heart.

[tolight]

[ The corners of her mouth tug up into a smile. ] As I've said before: you sell yourself short, sir.

I don't believe you would be easily forgotten.

[unluckyprince]

Quite the defeatist, aren't you? [A gentle chuckle;] Have patience. Mundanes can be difficult to deal with, yes, but they're not all bad.

[unmaskedfate]

I'm unsure that patience is all that will be required.

[And then Gerome gets a good look at who he's talking to and makes a startled movement.]

Your likeness… [Hem.] Forgive me. You bear a certain similarity to someone I know.

[unluckyprince]

You looked resilient enough-- I thought it may be a bit rude to suggest what's already present.

[Marth smiles, shaking his head.] No need to apologize. I seem to be getting that a lot lately!

[unmaskedfate]

Is that so. I have seen a number of my… [what's the word?] …comrades about, so perhaps you've spoken with them. They would have likely made a similar observation.

[manhandled]

You're so cynical, Gerome.

[Although that distant, stand-offish attitude is probably what attracts all the ladies, huh? Tch.]

[unmaskedfate]

[Yes. You've truly been taking the wrong approach all along, Inigo.]

In that whimsical, carefree mind of yours, I imagine it must look that way.

[manhandled]

It looks like that to everyone but you, actually.

[Hey, how was he supposed to know that the best approach is to not approach at all? He's been misled. Misled.]

But seriously. Have some faith in your mun.

[unmaskedfate]

[It's alright. Not everybody can pull it off, after all!]

My faith is not earned so cheaply. Some of us are not so easy to please, either.

[manhandled]

[It's not alright. It's unfair is what it is!]

You can say that again.

[bloodandblunder]

I don't think you could be forgotten...

[unmaskedfate]

… What makes you so certain?

[bloodandblunder]

B-because you're very distinct? Even when you preferred to be by yourself...

[unmaskedfate]

Distinct. Hm.

[He's not sure how to feel about that. Hard to please, this one.]

[bloodandblunder]

I would understood if I was forgotten, but you're different. I don't think... Minerva would allow it, either.
