♭ Note 01

[noisyclockhands]

[ Today, when you look around you you'll see -- eyes.

No need to be concerned, this isn't a splatter-movie, really! And there are only two but they are rather big. and curious. and very, very green. Seems someone is peering intently out at the world here while sitting on a grate] Oh~! It really is working, that's great!

[ the eyes are on the Relic now and the ear-piece he's just managed to fumble into his ears. There's a decidedly broad grin on that face and the short legs are kicking the air. ]

It's good that I believed the Mister who told me about this - thing. Even though it seemed really odd, you know? [ a finger tapping his chin here ]

In any case, does anyone know what this place is? I can't remember how I arrived here or why. It's really annoying if this happens all the time...

I guess some of you will tell me that going back home will be impossible~?

[noisyclockhands]

Say, you're the type who only accepts direct questions...

[eightofseven]

What of it?

[noisyclockhands]

That makes talking with you difficult. Don't you want to help the person you're talking with? That way they'll be forced to do the entire work.

[eightofseven]

[...wait, what?]

You say that helping someone has no effect on the effort they put towards a task... What are your thoughts on the matter?

[noisyclockhands]

Why should I tell you? [ always the most mature B| ]

[eightofseven]

So that I might understand your words from a moment ago.

[noisyclockhands]

Are you trying to tell me that you're interested in me all of a sudden?

[eightofseven]

I am interested in you, but I have been since you spoke. You are a very strange person.

[noisyclockhands]

--I'm not! [ that denial is almost instinctive and definitely too fast ]

Anyway, isn't this the pot calling the kettle black?

[eightofseven]

[He pauses for a moment. Idioms were never his thing.]

It is not. I am not a person.

[noisyclockhands]

[ OH Oz does so not like where this is going...]

What would you say you are, then?

[eightofseven]

...That is a question that I am not sure how to answer. It is too soon to simply tell you.

[noisyclockhands]

You're really annoying, you know. How do you expect to get people to trust you?

[ h-hypocritical!bunny is a go ]

[eightofseven]

I do not. I expect people to decide whether or not to trust me.

[noisyclockhands]

They'll decide that according to your character! Because of that, what you're doing is important as well.

[eightofseven]

Is that so?

[That does explain how Airi Ban was acting before he arrived...]

Yet, you say this and behave so unlike any man I have yet seen.

[noisyclockhands]

I'm not just running my mouth

[ e-eyebrow! but also a moment of preening because you said 'man'

and then Oz huffs because the rest f the sentence is far less appreciated ]

w-what?! What are you even basing that judgement on?

[eightofseven]

I have much experience with mankind from my observations. I know of a man who, as his first interaction with another, grabbed ahold of his scarf and simply dragged him away.

And yet, I find you to be more strange than even he.

[eightofseven]

That, Oz, is why I like you.

[noisyclockhands]

That's not that unusual [ Oz, when will your emotions ever be stable? weren't you angry a moment before...and now you're showing off? ]I know this really old guy who pops out of cupboards a lot. He's going to bust his hips really soon--

--I told you that you're being hypercritical and

[noisyclockhands]

[ BRB CHOKING

and also, mental keysmashing. and facial keysmashing too? because Oz' face can't quite settle on a single expression; he's actually turning red somewhere in there but comes out pretty white-washed

ewwww creep creep creeeeeep DDD< ]

...

That doesn't say anything good about your character, you're aware.

[eightofseven]

Actually, I was not. Thank you, Oz. I suppose I have much to learn.

May we meet again.

[He just vanishes, with a smile on his face.]
