Canon is Gundam Unicorn. WTF am I even doing?

[all_i_can_do]

Mundane, was it? I guess that will do as much as anything.

[The old man settles down in his chair, stretching his neck a little with a tired sigh.]

I don't know what's so interesting about an old man like me, especially with all those young people running around up in that head of yours. I don't fit in with the likes of them anymore.

[A chuckle.]

Ah, well, I guess there's no talking you out of it.

Comments

[a_beautiful_world]

Oh I don't know, you look like you could be very wise. Maybe that's why they like you.

[all_i_can_do]

Is that so?

[That gets a friendly laugh.]

I don't know about that. I don't have anything to offer that won't come on its own with time.

[a_beautiful_world]

You would be surprised how much a kind word can help that along.

[all_i_can_do]

Heh, you've got a point there. I guess that's the best an old guy like me can do nowadays.

[argents]

Everyone has a place, even here.

[all_i_can_do]

You're right about that, but my place is one that's a little more quiet.

[onecream_fivesugar]

I'm sure there's plenty interesting about you, just look at your beard!

There's no way you can grow one of those and be boring, trust me, I know this kind of stuff.

[all_i_can_do]

Hmm?

[He blinks a few times there, then scratches his beard. Yeah, he's rather proud of the thing as well.]

Heh, well, it's nice to know that there are still some people who appreciate the old styles.

[onecream_fivesugar]

[Wow. That is like pretty much the same thing she said to Jaune once This guy was like a future bearded old man version of herself.

...This is not how she pictured herself looking when she got old.]

Right. It's like a classic. A classic beard.

[all_i_can_do]

[Welcome to your future, Ruby.]

I guess it is. It's gotten a bit grayer than it used to be though.

[onecream_fivesugar]

[NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...]

Nothing a little dye can't fix, it'll be back to... To... To what ever colour it used to be in no time!

[all_i_can_do]

[Ouch, Ruby, jeez.]

Nah. There's no point in trying to hide the way things are. It is what it is.

[onecream_fivesugar]

[She's bad at this, okay?]

You know maybe your right.


...It looks fine just the way it is, no matter what colour it is!

[all_i_can_do]

[It's cool. You're a good kid.]

Heh.

[Here, have a coffee coming your way, Ruby. Just how you like it.]

'Course I couldn't say when it went and snuck up on me like that. When I look back it seems like it was just yesterday when I couldn't manage anything but a few hairs on my chin.

[onecream_fivesugar]

[How did he know, Is he a wizard? She'll take a sip of the coffee, it's still a little hot though.]

Well you've got one up on me, I can't really hold any hairs on mine.

[all_i_can_do]

[Nope. Just a guy who's really good at making coffee.

He laughs a bit. Cute kid, this one, maybe a little weird.]

Ah, well, that's normal. I don't think it would suit you anyway.

[onecream_fivesugar]

[She will be forever amazed at his coffee making skills.]

Yeah, you're probably right. So I'll just leave all the beard growing to you for now.

Keep up the good work, you're bearding for the both of us now.
