[ unfortunately, they probably are.

he opens his mouth to reply, but the waiter hurries over with the rest of their things. i am assuming they ordered food i don't actually remember if they did or not and i'm not backreading.

he looks back at her after. ]

Mmhm. What have you been doing since then anyway?

[fergalicious]

[ They have food now. It's fine.

She breaks off a piece of cake with a fork and waves it about idly. ]

Oh, nothing too much. Killing monsters, correcting history, making mead.

[dotcom]

[ i see.

he takes a bite of his own food, blinking just once. ]

Mead.

[fergalicious]

Yeah.

[ She takes a bite of her cake. ]

It's legendary. [ Well, more like it's part of her legend. ] It's delicious and potent.

[ It makes anyone who drinks it intoxicated with her. All her powers be like, you will be captivated by me. ]

[dotcom]

[ this is so suspect ]

Visited anyone?

[ he's just curious, since he hasn't really... visited... or reached out... ]

[fergalicious]

You're the first. Feel special.

[dotcom]

[ not even to go stab childe again, wow ]

I'll take the honor seriously.

[fergalicious]

[ Childe would like the stab too much, wow. Why would Medb give him the satisfaction when her affections for him dropped at the end there?

She's not that generous. ]

You'd regret it if you didn't.

[dotcom]

Mm. Even if I had time to see anyone before this, I think most people were in the middle of their planets exploding or whatever.

[ would he have visited them even if that wasn't the case?

probably not. but it just makes it more inconvenient. ]

[fergalicious]

Even if you had the time, would you have wanted to?

[ She's going to call him out. He was running at the end of their time at the base. It took him so long just to text. ]

[dotcom]

Hm. Probably not, no.

[ another bit of honesty.

he really was highly considering never seeing anyone again, but unfortunately he could not escape mineo since they went back to the same place. ]

... in general, the number of people I'd want to see again is small.

[fergalicious]

[ She hums. ]

Me. Mineo. Grace. Your adventure group.

[ Those are her guesses of who he might be willing to see or has a chance of stopping him from running completely, at least. ]

[dotcom]

[ ughhhh

she's right but ugh. ]

More than I would have thought going in...

[fergalicious]

[ She finishes her cake with a smile. ]

Don't act like it's such a terrible thing.

[dotcom]

It was a terrible thing.

[ past tense. ]

I didn't want to deal with most people.

[fergalicious]

[ The tense isn't lost on her. ]

Most people aren't worth it.

[ She isn't going to try to convince him to give (more) people a chance. What matters is that he likes her in the end. What matters is that she has every chance. ]

[dotcom]

[ he is

not going to argue that because he agrees. ]

No, I don't think that's going to change. People are usually idiots.

[ ppl at other tables: why are these two so rude ]

[fergalicious]

Mm-hmm. That's why it's nothing to take advantage of them and then leave them.

[ people at other tables: why are these two so horrible ]

[dotcom]

Words of a true heartbreaker.

[ he takes another bite of his food. ]

Oh. Do you have anything in mind that you wanted to do? Since there's a lot more things open now, there's more options.

[ nice that quarantine is lifted ]

[fergalicious]

[ She laughs because why wouldn't she be proud of being a heartbreaker? Terrible.

She hums a bit. ]

I want another outfit. [ She can never have too many clothes. ] And then you can show me a nice park or garden. Or a rooftop restaurant or bar.

[dotcom]

[ well. the first thing especially isn't too surprising.

he thinks about it for a second... and then nods. ]

Shibuya, then...

[ fashion ]

[fergalicious]

[ She knows very little about Shibuya, but she trusts his judgment enough since if there is at least one thing she knows about him, it's that he has standards. ]

I'm ready for Shibuya whenever.

[ Because she wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to eat half the dessert menu. ]

[dotcom]

[ he most definitely would.

but the also beautiful thing about shibuya is that there are so many sweets places there. it's great. ]

Perfect. We'll just finish here.

[ before someone tries to ask medb out ]

[fergalicious]

[ Who would ask her out here after listening to them be assholes? They either need better taste or they're as much of an asshole as the two of them.

She's finished with her food and the foreigner to his world, much less his country. ]

Lead the way.

[dotcom]

[ there's a nod and he'll get up. out they go!

it's still a little odd, to see the city a lot more active than it was just a few months ago, but he doesn't dwell on the thought too long and will only pause to make sure medb is with him. ]

Besides shopping... is there anything else in particular you'd like? There's a lot to do here.
