[ help... he's really here. i was going to say they can be in the hotel lobby, but i realized it was the love hotel, so the street it is. ]

You're not even going to pretend to say hi first?

[ cocking his head to the side, feigning a sort of ignorance. ]

I don't knoooow, guess it depends on who's asking.

[tindery]

[ YOU DON'T WANT TO PUT THEM IN THE LOVE HOTEL? what if i want a lusty lads mem

also no, he's not going to pretend. he said his name, that's his greeting. ]

Me, for Tokinaga.

You saw what he was doing today?

[glub]

[ lol, ]

Oh, that? What? Too intense for you?

[tindery]

[ okay that makes him laugh. he raises a brow, almost challenging. ]

Yeah, sure. I was tongue-tied.

[ could you imagine? ]

Anyway, I don't think it was working for him. He said he might want to learn from you.

[glub]

[ he also smiles a little at the thought of tobari being thrown off that bad. ]

From me? [ ... ] Is that really what he said?

[tindery]

[ tobari, one of the itehari love interests that never gets a blushing sprite,, ]

He brought up your name and said he might need to get lessons from you.

[ looking thoughtful again... ]

... this place is kind of a lost cause, and I'm not someone who can teach someone like Tokinaga how to flirt, so it didn't sound like the worst idea.

[ doesn't mention that he said raf seems like the type to flirt in a cute aggression kind of way ]

[glub]

[ NO BLUSHING SPRITE!?!? THAT'S A CRIME ]

I was just about to say what about you... But, it's like you thought of everything possible before finding me? [ it's a joke. but, it's also true that he was the type who tended to take the initiative too. ]

You sure he could really learn, though? [ not that he doubted tokinaga's learning abilities. he means this in more of a way like can you imagine tokinaga checking himself into the hospital for attention... these techniques aren't for everyone (thankfully) ]

[tindery]

[ everything i learn about lads is killing me ]

I'm not a good role model. [ in terms of intimacy or dating. this is so funny coming from an otome li but it's fine tobari doesn't know his genre ]

But sure. Unless you have any better teacher suggestions? No one here even knew how to go on a date.

[ what the hell? ]

[glub]

[ yeah tobari???? YOU'RE FROM AN OTOME!!!!

you and raf are not so different in origin ]

If you say so, Mister Jailbreak. [ lol. ]

Nah, you might be right. [ about the no one knows how to go on a date. ] The only people I can think of— well, one bites and one lost his hair the other day, so that's probably a no.

[tindery]

[ listen... tobari knows he's hot he also knows he's a specific taste (if you're into scoundrels) ]

The first is salvageable but still probably not right for a beginner like Tokinaga.

The second is a lost cause.

[ IS IT (no he's fucking around) ]

[glub]

[ but he could be tokinaga's flavor... wait,

the flavor of who tokinaga wants to get with** yeah ]

Wow, hair loss is more common than you think. Don't think that full head of hair of yours is forever. [ jk, but yeah

then he knows no one. after this thread i will prob. think of someone be like god why didn't we think of them ]

You say beginner, but he could have been using those lines for years.

[tindery]

[ tokinaga got his date with hien already....

but he just snorts, amused again ]

I'll take my chances.

But oh? Did one of them work on you?

[glub]

Yeah, who isn't moved when someone offers to be your sea turtle?

[tindery]

Yeah? You like animals? And the... [ what's it called again ] Ocean?

[glub]

[ no... not another ocean non-knower. ]

I guess you can say that. Why, do you not? Would you have preferred him just acting cutesy?

[tindery]

I'd rather get to know people as they are. I just think that he needs some help. If he decides that he'll keep trying with this style, then that's fine... just seemed clumsy to me.

[ so he's attempting to wingman because tobari is bad at leaving people alone ]

[glub]

That's ... weirdly reasonable. But, I think the same. I don't mind teaching him a few things, but like you said, it might be more of a lecture on how better to express himself. You know, so he doesn't scare them away by sticking his leggy out too high.

[ winking. ]

[tindery]

The flexibility was unexpectedly impressive though.

[ genuine

anyway he feels weirdly good about leaving tokinaga to raf's capable hands as a love tutor now ]

Thanks for helping.

[glub]

[ okay, that is kind of true... rafayel is agreeing

we did it... now inflict this on tokinaga tomorrow out of nowhere ]

No problem. [ ... ] But, alsooooo I forgot to say.

You're a pretty nice guy yourself.

[tindery]

[ ? ]

I don't think you should start to develop a wrong opinion of me.

Aren't I Mr. Jailbreak?

[ he's not trying as hard to hide that he's a fucking criminal if it comes up in conversation ]

[glub]

Yeah, and didn't I still try to get you out?

[ he gives a shrug. ]

Does that make me your accomplice?

[tindery]

[ lol ]

I'd rather you not get burned from hanging out with a guy like me.

[glub]

You saw my abilities. You think a little fire scares me?

[tindery]

I think you shouldn't be so eager to approach an open flame.

[ a burn is a burn, sweet raf

in a painfully obvious change of subject that he doesn't even try to hide because he's curious, ]

Can you tell me more about the ocean?

[glub]

Same to you.

[ a small quirk of his lips, before he settles on tobari's question. ]

Yeah, what do you want to know about it? It holds a lot of mysteries and tales, though.... so we might not get through them all in one day.
