[Blinks?]

What happened? Wait-- was it Hime?

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Yeah.

We didn't really have the greatest of introductions back on my day 1. And frankly, I don't trust anyone on Baritones. Or who's been there.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

Oh.

[Guilt flickers across Nero's face.]

Sorry. I shouldn't have assumed you two would get along, just 'cause she's been good for us in games.

I-- guess I'll just visit BAD END more instead...

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Nah.

I don't tend to hang out here-- outside of my room anyway.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

You guys have upgraded a lot, though...?

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

The kids did.

But the place's mostly empty.

[he shrugs]

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

...Like, no one around, empty?

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Yeah.

[he shrugs.]

We're not really a "team." Just a collection of people. That maybe sometimes shows up for games-- but mostly, it's just me.

And somehow, Bad End stopped wiping out.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Brows furrow,]

The hell? I mean, I knew you weren't big on a unit being family or whatever, but...

I thought the new kids were at least there sometimes?

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Sometimes. Scythe, usually.

But the rest are gone. And after I got back-- the rest of 'em took it as an excuse to stop listening to me.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

Right. That modeling game...

[He gives a scoff as he remembers,]

And t'think, the sexy cop warned me BAD END was gonna get territorial after you came back.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Sexy cop...?

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

Y'know, messy hair and glasses. Crossdresses as a sexy cop to smash windows, and for some reason everyone's hot over him.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Oh, Akira.

What does that even mean, get "territorial"? We barely come together after bad games.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

I dunno. Like they'd be protective of you or something?

But it seems like they haven't done jack shit.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Eh. Whatever.

[he shrugs.]

Leave 'em alone.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Nero backs off a little, but he's still annoyed.]

You should be able to rely on'em.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Why? I do fine on my own. I'm a lone wolf.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

Well apparently they all think they're lone wolves too. What's the point of this whole unit garbage if they don't at least stick up for you?

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

'Cause I don't need it.

[he considers nero for a moment]

Besides, what can you do?

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[huffs.]

...I dunno. I feel like telling'em to do anything will make them do the opposite.

[he's learnin, from u]

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

[don't learn from him, he's awful.]

Maybe...

I appreciate the thought, though.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[but, he's smart tho]

...You do deserve better. From-- everyone.

Re: Day 255

[mind_blown]

Don't.

[a slight warning as he says it. he doesn't need to hear that-- twice in one day.

he moves his elbow to his lower thigh and rests his cheek in his palm.]

It's fine. Annoying, but fine. I'd prefer this than whatever rep we had before.

Re: Day 255

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Grunts and leans against him a little.]

The 'Oops, All Dead' team? Yeah, much better.
