[This post goes up pretty late on Wednesday night;]

this whole thing don't make any goddamn sense
'M good at fightin' an all but it's not like there ain't touchy feely types who can't also handle a fight
You got that damn prettyboy knight who looks like he aughta smell like roses
an' that golden guy who's all concerned 'bout people communicatin'
Even maid-san could probably make friends if she tried an' she sure's hell can fight
Prob'ly plenty others who can do both

So why me?
I ain't suited fer makin' friends
'M just a killer

They should've picked someone like Ryoma
Ryoma's always the one gettin' picked anyway
No one wants Okada Izou
S'that why I never get used right?

I ain't whatever friend yer talkin' about. It ain't about being friendly or not, Red

Fer starters yer assumin' I'm a good person

[beautifulknight]

It is true that I do remember the title that you have told to me that you had when you were spending time in your original homeland as a fierce swordsman.

I suspect that there may be things you have done in your life that I could not defend. Though even so, I do not think of you as an intensely malicious person.

So far you do at the least truly strike me as an honest, up-front individual. While it is true not everyone can handle that, I do think it could be a radiant quality. And I am still getting to know you. If I have the opportunity, I am certain that there can be others that I can find.

Aughhh Red you gotta use less words it's hard ta read all the text on these things when I'm drinkin'

dunno what it means ta be radiant

but y'gotta know I ain't like
a smart guy
I just did what I was told an' didn't question nothin'
I don't got any lofty ideals like you

[beautifulknight]

My apologies. I am not used to phrasing things in a more short-handed manner, but I will try to make this less difficult on you.

It is alright if you do not know. Everyone has their own form of brilliance or radiance inside of them.

But I shall keep elaborations for another time.

It is true that we do not hold similar ideals, and your path in life is far different. Though I would not agree about you not being 'smart'. I haven't seen anything to indicate that you're lacking in intelligence.

[goei]

Well I never went to proper school or anything
And I never learned how ta speak proper Japanese like Ryouma neither
I don't care about bein' smart cause I'm good at other stuff

You don't gotta lie ta me ta make me feel better or nothin neither

[beautifulknight]

Well, I do wish to inform you that I too have not attended "proper school", because while I did have something of an education, I was not able to take my time at one either. A fellow Knight of Beauty assisted with whatever I was lacking in that regard.

As for speaking proper "Japanese" or not...I am not certain why that would matter, either. I believe you communicate just as well as you are now.

So, to that end, I can say for certain I'm not lying either. I am simply saying what I believe, and the truth. Being dishonest to you would be cruel and also quite rude.

why're you always actin like ya see the best in me???
you don't know shit about me
why don't ya just assume the worst like everyone else

it's too confusing tryna figure out what yer angle is fer butterin me up with this bullshit!!

[beautifulknight]

No matter how you thought I was acting...
Why would I immediately assume the worst of someone who I still have yet to truly learn much about?

You state that I am buttering you up, but I thought I was being straight-forward?

[goei]

Most people assume th'worst
Jus how people are
Specially with a guy like me

No reason bein nice to a stranger less they got something you want.

[beautifulknight]

While it is true that there are those that assume the worst, I would not think it to be most people.

I have no reason to be cruel to other people, and this remains the same. Even if I did not wish to be befriend others, being so dishonest or kind for the sake of obtaining something would break an oath.
