You're fine, you're fine! There's always next time

You didn't really miss much with the last one anyways.

[darkroastbean]

Was it really just mixing drinks? That's surprisingly straight forward.

[featherbeaned]

Mixing drinks, and sharing truths, memories, and emotions. We didn't play it straight at all.

[darkroastbean]

With a list like that, if it were anyone but you guys I'd be kind of terrified.

[featherbeaned]

Awwww, Pip! You're gonna give me the warm fuzzies.

[darkroastbean]

You ARE a warm fuzzy.

[featherbeaned]

Shit. You got me there.

[darkroastbean]

It's just an observation! Seriously though, it doesn't sound like it would have been too bad at all. Maybe I'll be able to get in on a similar game next time.

[featherbeaned]

Can't say I'm a fan of games like that, myself ...

But it would be cool to have you along for the ride. Fingers crossed, yeah?

In the meantime, I have a very important question for you.

[darkroastbean]

Hm? Yeah, what is it?

[featherbeaned]

How do you feel about SCAMMING!

[darkroastbean]

[;;;;;; WHO TOLD HER]


Scamming? Me? Never!




Buuuuut, I'm listening. What kinda scam?

[featherbeaned]

Well! Well, W and me were at a, uhh, horse sports, did they call it? Yeah, horse sports. We were at a horse sports live, and W was doing prediction-y fortunes for people ...

Imagine how easy it'd be to cheat at that kinda thing.

[darkroastbean]

Horse sports. . .

Well, as long as you're not suggesting I become a horse or a racer, yeah, that sounds like a pretty basic scam. Especially if you're using any of your other abilities.

[featherbeaned]

[ pfff snorts ]

You'd make a cute horse, but nah. It's just the hustle!

Please note: I'm very very very very bad at hustling.

[darkroastbean]

You don't need to. You make a for a great distraction. [and he considers for a moment]

I'll let you in on a secret. I'm actually the best con-artist in Japan!

[featherbeaned]

Oh, you are?

Is it 'cause of the innocent-looking babyface?

[darkroastbean]

Eh?! No! It's because of my skills, my skills! And I can speak a bunch of languages!

[featherbeaned]

Skills, smarts, and the babyface!

[darkroastbean]

No!! The babyface isn't part of it at all, that's just part of the package!

[featherbeaned]

No, no, it definitely helps.

Absolutely definitely.

I'm an expert, y'know.

[darkroastbean]

Wow. Guess it must be true! I'll just have to show you what I can do without relying on it. . .!

[featherbeaned]

Fight hard!!

... But first, I'mma make you some "welcome home" coffee.

[darkroastbean]

You don't have to, but. Thanks.

[featherbeaned]

I'MMA DO IT.
