What? He's the one who brought up other people first, not me. If you're going to start an argument, it's only right that you support it.

[wheft]

[ makes pained noises ]

Do I have to? Frankly I'm surprised he even indulged you with an answer, unless he's doing that to divert your attention.

[transmit]

I've noticed that when he gets competitive, he gets competitive. But, probably. I just thought that his answer, even for a throwaway one, was funny.

So it was more like I just wanted to see who you'd throw out too if you absolutely had to. Nothing nefarious like you were saying!

[wheft]

[ hmmmmMMM ]

Their physique, I suppose. If they have more muscle in them, they'd be study enough to weather anything that comes their way. Well, most of the time.

[ a lot of her fellow sailors are built, after all. it's natural to be drawn to that. ]

[transmit]

Haha. What a practical answer. How alike you.

He did say something about a remarkable physique as part of his! It tells you a lot about someone, doesn't it? However they may have gained it, they certainly had to work hard.

[wheft]

[ so he likes a well-built body too... 📝 ]

Mhm. Especially when they come with scars. They often tell a story that mere words couldn't tell.

[transmit]

[ weren't we talking about meme answers?? but who doesn't tbqh. ]

How I see it is that there are hardly people without them. Still, I'll agree that physical scars speak of what they must've gone through to an extent. People who are able to wear them with pride are wonderful.

[wheft]

[ YA BUT THEY DONT KNOW THESE ICLY... 🔍 ]

Is that also your type? You know too much about me now, so I've got to turn this question around on you.

[transmit]

Would you believe me if I told you I've never thought about it before?

[wheft]

Nope. In fact I'd even say that you're lying.

[transmit]

Then you can have the answer that I'd give everyone else: someone who has a nice smile who looks like they can take care of themselves.

In a way, I guess you've caught me. It isn't wrong.

[wheft]

Huh.

That's such a cute response coming from you. And who are these people with these nice smiles?

[transmit]

[ he

has to think about this one

me fuckin dying because none of his cr actually smiles that much HELP ]

Wriothesley when he's drinking tea?

[wheft]

[ SAMPO SMILES ALL THE TIME THOUGH WDYM ]

He's always drinking tea, though. There has to be other people who smiles just as much as you do. Like the guys over at Everlight?

[transmit]

[ we're talking about nice smiles, girl ]

Yeah, and those are the only times I've seen him smile…

[ elysium having a crisis real-time rn ]

You know
You say that but
The only person I have frequent correspondence with from that team is Miss Gebura

[ and the other everlights he's spoken to, however briefly, but wouldn't know which team they're on anyway? ren, raidou, hunter… do they smile… thanks malkuth for eventually meeting expectations ]

[wheft]

[ HE DOES HAVE A NICE SMILE HELLOOOOOOOOO (sorry i yearn for sampo carnally) ]

But he's always smiling? Maybe you did something to offend him. I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case.

[ she does not know that he smiles more often around her............ 🧍

whatever. enough about that guy, because another name's been brought up and it's someone that ishmael knows all too well. ]

You know Gebura? Come to think of it, it is pretty odd that she ended up there... I'd really thought she'd be in Brimstone.

[transmit]

Well, the way we're defining it might be a bit different. I'll admit that I was thinking about it more abstractly… The smiles I'm thinking about are the ones that occur in reaction to something or another. The ones that are earned, you know?

[ that's what makes them nice…! and, not nice. ahem. ]

Besides you and another guy called Izou, I can't say I know too many people from Brimstone. Why would you say that?

[wheft]

[ bro it's just a smile it's not that deep........ anyway ]

Well, Izou being here makes sense. But Gebura... she's from the same City as I am. And I don't know if she'd ever told you this, but she's what we call legendary where we're from. Her abilities are no joke, and she's seen way too much shit in her lifetime compared to what I've gone through.

[ she's not a huge stan but it's pretty apparent that she sorta looks up to her. who doesn't? ]

A lot of people in this team are pretty powerful. They have horrible tempers too. And yes, I'm calling myself out on the latter. [ not so much on the former... ]

[transmit]

[ bro you're talking to a white-haired anime man what ISN'T deep ]

Wow. I imagine she hates being called that. Believe me, I've seen it for myself what she's capable of after working with her during the last mission. I always did wonder if you two happened to know each other though, after realising that you two came from the same place.

[ tucks this away for future reference ]

And yet, unlike her, you've never thrown me into an ocean.

1/2

[wheft]

You didn't hear that from me, okay. I guess if she's in Everlight, she won't fly into a rage unlike another person who's on the same level as her... Still, better safe than sorry.

[wheft]

And I dunno. There's always a first time for everything, Elysium.

[ something something about making him walk the plank ]

[transmit]

[ considering that she didn't fly into one after he'd brought up her sexy bunny outfit fiasco, does he need to be safe anymore? hm…. ]

Yeah? Trying to throw me over your shoulder like a sack of potatoes too? Sheesh…! It's tough being a normal guy.

[wheft]

You're anything but normal, and you know it.

[ stop downplaying yourself you freak :/ ]

[transmit]

I'd like to think that I'm a lot more normal than the guys who could take on hundreds (literal) of the last kaiju we encountered all at once.

[ we're not talking about that :( ]

[wheft]

Not everyone who can pull that off enjoys it, though.

[ in other words, it's a skill issue on elysium's party u_u ]
