[ :hehe: I am actually proud of my music taste most times.........

Violence is understandable, actually. He understands this in a wordless, but very present way. He lowers the volume for her so that it isn't so loud, but still audible. ]

Yeah, me neither. Not that I was a music listener to start with.

[ But he doesn't seem to find it bad, either... ]

Way better than the hogshit they have playing at the Bowling for Soup.

[ HIS GOOD SOUP ]

[bindings]

[that helps. her shoulders ease a little.]

I am glad I'm not the only one who thinks that is noise and not music. [she says, and there's maybe a surprising amount of scathing tone to that. she doesn't like loud noises! rave music is only loud noises!]

... I prefer the instruments in this. I'd always wondered what it would be like to play one.

[crucifer]

Yeah, it's pretty shit. I don't like the lights, either.

[ Bright flashing lights that make his head pound and ache. Not a fan... at all. ]

With all the emphasis on music you have, thought you would've practiced at least one.

[bindings]

[she hesitates.]

I think I would break the instrument if I tried. [:\] I like the sound of it. It brings people together. And sometimes it can tell a story.

[crucifer]

[ How poetic. Wolfwood's impression of music is a Hornfreak. It's deceptively nice, but just as lethal as anything can be in the right hands. ]

A bit clumsy? Maybe you can try something big and sturdy.

[ Thinks about Monika. ]

Like a piano.

[bindings]

[she glances at wolfwood like she thinks he might be making fun of her, funnily enough. she stares at him like she's making sure that's not the case, expression a little narrowed.]

[crucifer]

[ Raising a brow. He wasn't making fun of her, though it wasn't also the world's most serious suggestion. ]

Is that not the problem?

[bindings]

[she's not very good at being able to tell, which is why she's making sure!!]

... No, it is. [but now that she's assured that he wasn't being mean, she thinks about it.] I suppose a piano would work, as long as I don't grow frustrated.

[crucifer]

[ Oh. ]

So it's that kind of break.

[ He snorts. Okay, he gets that much more, actually. ]

[bindings]

[LITTLE OF COLUMN A, LITTLE OF COLUMN B]

Master tells me it is easy to make me angry, so it might be easier said than done. [bunsweat]

[crucifer]

Yeah, I get that. You just gotta find something you'll love and enjoy just to do, not because you want to be perfect at it.

[ It's the lesson kids learn when they get frustrated and throw things at walls. Every small step is a success, not a failure. Right? ]

[bindings]

[she thinks about that, looking down at her hands. her hair falls over her shoulder, covering part of her face, and she's silent for a moment.

maybe he didn't mean anything deep by what he said, but that's a little thing she has to internalize.]

It's okay to enjoy things.

[crucifer]

Yeah.

Even when times are tough, it's alright to eat, laugh, and smile.

[ The three great and grand things of living, not surviving. Something comforting he heard the older aunties say when they were going through a rough patch. Yes steals some Stampede things. It's fine. ]

[bindings]

[she tilts her head to the side, looking at him.

she likes that sentiment. she likes it a lot, actually. and while she isn't sure she can allow herself to do two of three of those, well.

she stands up.]

I would like to try something. Come with me. [this is a request, not a demand, even if she doesn't phrase it that way.]

[crucifer]

?

[ It's fine, he can get the vibe. Also if he didn't want to he's pretty sure he can just be like 'no', he's not a pushover. ]

What're you thinking?

[bindings]

I have seen a man and his weasel eating fried potatoes. I want to try them, and I think you should try them as well.

[EAT FRENCH FRY]

[crucifer]

[ HELP

Internally he's thinking 'what's a weasel...' ]

You never had them before?

[ He knows what French fries are because Trigun is funny like that. ]

[bindings]

[i like that the triguns know what raccoons are theoretically but weasels are straight out]

Not like these. We have potatoes in Liyue, but I'm not sure I've ever seen them fried in this way.

[crucifer]

[ Honestly at all hours we are freeballing it because Tabasco sauce is canon in this universe. We don't discuss whether something exists either so like, godspeed. ]

Fast food is easy in No Man's Land.

[ Easy to do hot fried food when the entire planet is also hot and fried. ]

New discoveries, though. Harmless.

[bindings]

[help that's valid the genshins also don't ask each other so we're all doing great]

There is that term again...

[the fast food... alex explained to her that it was because the food is served quickly, not that the actual food itself is fast, thankfully.]

I am hesitant to try nuggets. [get up wolfwood let's go frenched fry]

[crucifer]

[ That kind of fast food is usually rawer than most people like. ]

They're alright, too. Eat too many before bed though and you might not feel so hot.

[ God. Briefly he wonders if this is going to be a Guifei Round Two, because that was both so chaotic and funny at the same time.

Wolfwood is a raccoon too but in this city he feels like a sane man. ]

[bindings]

[he really is the only sane person in this game i think]

I would feel not so hot? [shenhe out here like you get a reverse fever from chicken nuggets]

[crucifer]

[ That's so horrible he's not the picture of sanity, please raise the bar. ]

You might feel sick, I meant. It's a saying.

[bindings]

[i read that as saintly first and i was like u rite]

Oh. [this makes her look slightly frustrated.] Mortals never say exactly what they mean.

[crucifer]

[ Both are super correct yeah. ]

Guess we don't. Our language got colourful over the years. Used to be a lot more different ones too, but the Big Fall kinda mostly forced us to use one.

It's expressive, at least.

[ Which is, he supposes. why Shenhe struggles. ]
