...

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

[ A wan laugh. ]

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.
scooptimistic: (Now you're thinking with portals!)

[personal profile] scooptimistic 2025-06-07 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
I won't say no! And I have nothing to be slippery about.

[ And also she doesn't really tend to get drunk. ]

[ 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.
scooptimistic: (Who WAS that masked man?)

[personal profile] scooptimistic 2025-06-07 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Aesthetics...

... I do think you and Shoko would match pretty well.

[ Hmmmmmmm. ]

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. ]
scooptimistic: (LET'S POSITIVE THINKING)

[personal profile] scooptimistic 2025-06-07 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Entirely possible, but I was considering it among who you already listed.

Or! Me!

[ Gestures.

Grandly. ]

[ ??????????????

Still holding the bottle and stopper up. ]


I would certainly be honored to be considered a match for you, Amano-san, but ... in terms of aesthetics?
scooptimistic: ... it really was the cat (The CAT)

[personal profile] scooptimistic 2025-06-07 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'd probably dress as comfy-looking as you if my roommate hadn't threatened me with death.

[ 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.
scooptimistic: (By all means do let me fuck him up)

[personal profile] scooptimistic 2025-06-07 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
[ She accepts it with a grateful nod, taking a healthy swig before responding-- ]

I'd love to! Mine gets so constricting at times.
phenomerom: (016)

[personal profile] phenomerom 2025-06-07 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
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. ]
scooptimistic: (I guess it's time for the ponder pose)

[personal profile] scooptimistic 2025-06-07 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
I feel like I should let you borrow something in return, or. You know. Equivalent exchange, but...

[ Not much comes to mind. ]
phenomerom: (038)

[personal profile] phenomerom 2025-06-07 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
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.

[personal profile] scooptimistic 2025-06-07 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Then I'm happy I helped! We kind of hit a lot of different things.

[ But she believes in him. ]
