Yeah, almost completely donuts.

[HE'S SO SERIOUS ABOUT THIS - but he does crack a grin after a few seconds]

You'll see for yourself soon enough.

[alteracion]

Is it the only thing he eats or something?

[ should she be putting donuts out in the kitchen to their room ]

[sengokus]

It's his favorite. So admittedly if he's in a bad mood, you can hand him a donut and he'll chill out a little. Most sweets work though.

I'm gonna try to shove a vegetable down his throat every now and then though.

[alteracion]

What if eating a vegetable is against his gluttony indulgence?

[ it's a very important question ]

[sengokus]

He won't get to enjoy his reward if he explodes from icing before he even gets it! I'm doing him a favor!

[alteracion]

Have you ever tried making him a vegetable donut?

[sengokus]

[he pauses

and the look on his face suggests that he thinks this is fucking genius]

Grace...

I think you're the smartest person I've ever met.

[oh my god]

[alteracion]

You're welcome. [ shouldn't she be the one saying thank you, here, ] I'm just good at caring about people.

[sengokus]

[he doesn't seem to be bothered by the confidence - it just makes him grin]

Oh yeah? I think this place especially needs someone like you then.

We're lucky you're here.

[alteracion]

You are, but don't worry, we're friends, so I'll be here to help both of you. [ there's a pause ] So you should know you made a terrible first impression on your roommate.

[sengokus]

[he

slumps a little]

Just add it to the list...

[HE HAS SO MANY FIRST IMPRESSIONS TO RECOVER FROM]

[alteracion]

[ she? leans on him and pats his head ]

Don't worry. It's not totally unrecoverable. You just need to not fall down on your knees every time something bad happens. That's the opposite of looking cool.

[sengokus]

[he leans into the headpat.... thank you grace

also he's just going to pout a bit]

We talked about that already! And she laughed when I took a knee and called her 'Your Highness' - so it's probably fine by now!

[oh my god]

[alteracion]

Oh, you're bad at this. [ how is this even a revelation. she pat pats him again ] Did she ask to be called that?

[sengokus]

[he nods...]

Yeah.

[and he just

went with it]

I mean, I'm probably not gonna call her that all the time... but it makes her happy?

[he doesn't understand why people call him a pushover and yet]

[alteracion]

Okay, well, at least it's a little less sad. [ because she at least asked him to. but like. only a little? ] But I'm pretty sure she was messing with you.

[sengokus]

[he looks thoughtful for a second at that

before he just laughs a little]

... probably. But - it's okay. I think we've got it figured out now. I'm not surprised the hole started out deep, but I think I hit ground level again.

Er... but if she complains to you again, let me know. I'll try to fix it.

[alteracion]

It was more making fun than complaining. [ pats his shoulder before moving away ] But I'll be sure to let you know when you make a fool of yourself.

[sengokus]

[ . . . . ]

G-Gently...

[he anticipates this happening a lot for some reason]

But I've got cool points too, you know!

[IT'S NOT JUST DISASTER, THEORETICALLY]

[alteracion]

[ okay but he's walking into that one so she makes a show of looking him up and down ]

Where?

[sengokus]

[GLDKJ]

Look harder! Look harder!!

[alteracion]

I'm looking! But I can't see it. You might have to point me in the right direction.

[ this is just making it worse ]

[sengokus]

[he looks like he wants to cry]

You'll see... When something stressful happens and my instincts kick in!

[but he doesn't anything TOO dangerous to happen?? oh mineo]

[alteracion]

Dangerous how? Are we talking picking fights with people, or a saber tooth tiger attack?

[sengokus]

Both!

[and he straightens up a little at this, frowning]

I don't want either to happen - but if they did, I'd jump in to help you no matter what!
