I told you it was a long story. From your response, I’m guessing the highlights of it were more worrying than interesting. Mayhap we should both be grateful we were not of those imprisoned?
nw! i hope you feel better soon :'| & i'm glad you're enjoying him! poor getou tbh
Unfortunate circumstances are no excuse not to raise your child right.
[he's doing the best he can (by not doing anything his family has done to 'raise' him, for example.]
Kid has to live in the real world eventually and rowdiness isn't exactly something you grow out of. But fine, maybe calling them peasants was a little bit strong.
[he needs a babysitter more than he needs to be right in an argument.]
[ Well, those are the words of a responsible father, and she can't even fault him for saying it. She knows he's right, despite the execution being harsher than what she's used to. Regardless, she understands that as a parental figure, it's important to raise kids well, and sometimes that worries her because, well, Chibiusa. She's not a mother yet, yet she's already had a taste of what it's like to be someone that a child has to depend on. Maybe if she can be half as responsible as he is (in her mind) then she might make it out okay. ]
You're right, I'm sorry I argued. Being a parent is hard and I shouldn't have judged your method of parenting.
[ She doesn't know what he's been through and so she realizes she doesn't have a right to judge, but she is glad that he's a good dad for Megumi. ]
You've taught me a lot of stuff, and I think I've learned a lot just now, so thank you. I think Megumi will be just fine with you as his father. I'm glad he has you.
Let me tell you though, remember last time when I told my mom that a doctor said I should take adequate breaks? She yelled at me for talking to a stranger. So in order to make sure she's off my back, I need to make you into a friend as opposed to staying a stranger.
I'll go first! I'm Usagi Tsukino, and I'm a second-year in high school!
big talk considering most of your family is dead too
Well as long as it was suitably petty and the point meant was recieved (literally) than who am I to be too overly put out about it. I thank you though for the offer of reimbursement, that was very chivalric of you.
[ It was an odd conversation to have and honestly, Essek was enjoying it in a most perverse way-- the sort of way that made him feel decadent and himself not also not; this version of himself felt far freer than he ever had ]
From what I have determined about cats, they very rarely ask for permission if they desire to commander a lap, so I could in fact crawl up there and fix you with a 'look'; a look that says that if I fit, I sit.. hmmm?
[ and what he will find within might be predictable: Getou passed out on the hard floor with his phone just out of reach, a clammy scarlet with fever. ]
