Oh? The generosity's much appreciated. I'm afraid I had to surrender all of those when we entered the house, but I'll have to remember to give you one before we part ways, eventually.
[ Also, vanishing his stupid magic rock with a little flick of the wrist. ]
[ Oh yeah, not any actual emotions. Haha. Imagine any of that happening. ]
Correct. I'm still operating under the assumption here that drama and optics are a high priority for these pairings. 'Drama is just as important as true feelings,' I believe was the gist of what Mr. Nico said. And while the failure of our attempt at the Truth Booth doesn't necessarily mean this assumption was wrong ... it isn't very reassuring, either.
I can't say I think about things from that angle very often. Maybe something else? Perhaps -- how important do you think aesthetics and visuals might be? Whether the producers might prefer like with like in that regard, or high contrast.
You'll be waiting quite a while, Amano-san. I don't get drunk. Perhaps working around purifying sake from a young age did something to my tolerance levels. Ah -- though, perhaps it was rude of me not to offer. Would you like a glass as well? It's quite good.
[ Can't believe the nice shochu is going to waste on these two weirdos who won't even get drunk off it ... ]
Excellent. If you'll give me a moment, then.
[ handwaves that they were standing near the kitchen so he can step around the counter to fetch another glass. And as he's rustling up some ice cubes for her: ]
And I'm not being slippery, to be clear. I simply think the other possibility I raised is more likely to be helpful. What do you think? Aesthetics.
Oh? [ A curious glance up from where he's fetching the shochu bottle. ] I hadn't expected that. In terms of aesthetics, my selections would have been ... hm.
[ A pause before he pops the bottle open. ]
Mr. Luka or Miss Yingying. [ For opposites. ] Or perhaps Mr. Yi Sang or Lord Messmer.
[ ....... sorry guys. Hope you don't mind he is bundling himself with you Freaks as like with like. ]
[ Comfy ............... His sense of style has been called a lot of things by a lot of people, but 'comfy' is a new one. After pondering for a moment more, he finally pours a generous glug of shochu in the new glass before offering to her. ]
If you'd like to borrow one of my jackets, you're welcome to at any time. I brought a few.
With pleasure! Just let me know tomorrow morning sometime and I'll let you pick whichever one you like.
[ Said as he also pours himself a generous extra helping of shochu. He might not get drunk-drunk, but he does sorta need it to prepare himself for tomorrow. Sigh. ]
Oh, don't worry about it, Amano-san. I'm just happy to have someone appreciate my taste in clothes. And besides ... [ the clink of ice as he swirls his glass a bit ] -- this conversations given me plenty to think about. It's been helpful.

On that note -- I don't suppose you have any objections or advice regarding my selections.

Logical thoughts aside, are you actually romantically interested in any of the ones you just mentioned? Like. Even the tiniest bit.
[ Hop to it. ]

[ Gonna take. A big gulp of his shochu. ]

You wanna finish your drink and let the alcohol hit and then I'll just ask you again?

I would certainly be honored to be considered a match for you, Amano-san, but ... in terms of aesthetics?
