lmao there is now yelling

[fullmoonmutt]

[ oh for the love of ]

Oh, she don't like cussing, either, huh? Well! Fuck! Shit! [ insert c-word here ]! Dickhead! Motherfucker! Now what, huh?!

[vogelfrei]

Eli. This isn't her real mother. She won't take offense, no matter how hard you try. It's still just Mafuyu's mind in the end.

[ SO STOP CAUSING TROUBLE??? ]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ NO?! ]

I'm not going to try and fit into whatever perfect mold her stupid mom tried to force her into. That's what caused this whole problem in the first place.

[vogelfrei]

Under normal circumstances, I'd agree with you. But this is a palace - remember how the Shinsengumi attacked us for perceived transgressions in Izou's palace?

If you upset her internal image of her mother before we get to her, won't that make our journey more difficult?

[moodwrecker]

Then you can stay pristine all you want.

I'm pretty sure no matter what I did, there's no way I'd live up to her mom's expectations even if I tried. So I'm not even going to bother.

[vogelfrei]

You won't have to pretend for long. It's like acting, isn't it? You got through that as well.

[ WHY DO NONE OF YOU BELIEVE IN YOUR CAPACITY TO MY FAIR LADY YOURSELVES.... ]

[moodwrecker]

That was for a play. I'm not going to fake it in her Palace.

I already told you, I have a reputation for staying true to myself. I'm not going to change that now, especially when that's the root of Mafuyu's problems.

[So everyone else can deal with schmoozing tbh.]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ McGillis, why do you keep having to make him stop and think? That's so annoying. ]

I... guess?

[ Spitting out dirt from the handprint he just got across his face. Terrible. ]

[vogelfrei]

Just keep it down until we know what we're dealing with, is that alright?

You'll get to shout as many obscenities as you want later on.

[fullmoonmutt]

...fine.

[ Said huffily, but he'll quiet down for now. ]

[beautifulknight]

[ From way over in the apple orchard section he hears this.

Why is this happening... ]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ any excuse to yell dickhead at people for a few hours, tbh ]

[cirquedesang]

[.......Also hearing this from the gate.

Somehow he thinks The Queen Won't Approve of this one.

(Fuck her.)]

[fullmoonmutt]

[ this is why you love him, though, right? ]

[cirquedesang]

[Called out in the metatext how dare--]

Re: lmao there is now yelling

[beathollow]

The dirt-print of a hand covering his mouth appears with a soft "shhhh".

[fullmoonmutt]

[ PFSDHFLGAHLGMDF?! ]

...eugh, there's dirt in my mouth!

[townmusician]

[lmao]

Well, what did you expect?

[fullmoonmutt]

Hey, it's been all on the clothes so far! Why would I expect it on my face, too?!

[townmusician]

You're running out of space on your clothes.

[Haruka shrugs!]

Or the powers that be are just mad that you're not behaving and are trying to escalate to get you to submit. I don't know.

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Ugh, shut up, shut up, shut up. ]

Yeah, well, it doesn't matter now because McGillis is right. So shove it and pick a path to follow.

[goei]

[And Izou himself is now similarly smudged for similar reasons.]

You tell her Eli! Some of us can't help talkin' in a rougher way!!

[fullmoonmutt]

[ Looking at Izou... ]

Were you doing all that on purpose, too?

[goei]

... Definitely. Testin' it out.

[He is lying he was just swearing mindlessly.]

[fullmoonmutt]

Ha, guess we both had the same idea.

[ Eli believes him due to the power of friendship. Congrats, Izou. ]
