[scooptimistic]

That's fair enough.

[ A sigh. ]

My turn, then?

[gamboler]

[ Brightly: ]

That's right! Dish it up, Miss Maya.

[scooptimistic]

There's a prophecy that involved me once! Not that I knew it at the time.

[ Well. Okay, then. ]

[gamboler]

[ Hello???? ]

What sort of prophecy?

[scooptimistic]

One about the end of the world.

[ Yeah. ]

[gamboler]

[

Okay... ]

...Were you the cause or the solution? [ Or a secret third thing... ]

[scooptimistic]

That's an answer I'm afraid will have to wait until later!

[ Ehe. ]

[gamboler]

[ Damn... ]

So then, time for another plate? How do we next push the limits of our appetites?

[ He is already...so full... ]

[scooptimistic]

Mm... we could go for appetizers or dessert?

[gamboler]

A palate cleanser does sound nice...dessert it is!

[ His sweet tooth might be doing the talking. ]

[scooptimistic]

Are you a sweets kind of guy, Aventurine?

[ Oh... that's kind of adorable. ]

[gamboler]

Guilty as charged. A sweet treat was a rare indulgence when I was younger. Needless to say, I grew addicted.

[ He always looked forward to those very rare occasions that he and his sister were able to find sweet buns or honey cake for sale. ]

[scooptimistic]

Fair enough! I'm an appreciator of most food myself! But I'll take dessert recommendations if you see any favorites over there.

[ She's here to experiment! ]

[gamboler]

I'm partial to flavors that mix a little savory or spicy with sweet, but you can't go wrong with a bread, cake, or ice cream treat.

[ bro just named most types of dessert but ok ]

[scooptimistic]

... Well, you really just covered most of the spectrum, didn't you?

[ Sir. ]

[gamboler]

[ Giving a look that says "what's your point".

And now he's holding out a chocolate cookie with a little cayenne pepper for her to try. ]

Here. This is just the right amount of kick if you're partial to spice.

[scooptimistic]

I'm partial to a lot of things.

[ But she's here for it. She'll accept this, eyeing it curiously. ]

[gamboler]

[ While she takes the cookie, he's helping himself to a nice bowl of plain vanilla ice cream. Palate cleanser!! This will be a much shorter course than their last one. ]

[scooptimistic]

No toppings, huh? I'm learning so much about you.

[ Rather surprising for a glitzy guy. ]

[gamboler]

Can that count as my secret for this round?

[ Can't blame a guy for trying. ]

[scooptimistic]

Absolutely not.

[ Beaming. ]

[gamboler]

You should at least go first this time.

[ It's only fair! ]

[scooptimistic]

Mm, then.

[ Hmmm. ]

My roommate tried to call a serial killer on me. She said she was really drunk at the time.

[gamboler]

[ HELLO???????? ]

As in...she tried to order a hit on you...?

[scooptimistic]

Yeah. I didn't find out until, well. Things happened.

[ Whoops. ]
