a number goes here [voice]

[scimitar]

Wowwww, an' here I thought everyone here kinda peaceful! Guess I was wrong, yer true colors are showin'. 'S called "Fortuna's First Great War (AD)"— [...] not the greatest ring to it, but I guess it'll have to do 'til I hear a better one. I've heard worse! So I'll be the neutral party an' swoop in at the last second on the clearly winnin' side. It's a great plan, dunno why more 'a ya nations don' try it more often. An' succeed.

But anyway, I've got somethin' more important, so stop fightin' over stupid shit for like five seconds an' listen up.

IT'S SASUKE'S BIRTHDAY TODAY.

Yep! Sasuke's!! I bet he'll say he wanted it to be a ~secret~, but don' listen to him cuz everyone's gotta know. So I hope ya can get yer gifts together in record timin' if ya didn'. Iunno why ya wouldn' want the attention 'bout that anyway, 's not like he's turning fifty or somethin'. [... most likely.]

Ya can drop 'em off at 1113 in Dissimulo.♪ Thanks!!

How can I be tired 'a bein' me? That's dumb!

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

Acting cheerful. Like difficult things are jokes.

[voice]

[scimitar]

I'm jus' a cheerful guy! Jealousy is unbecomin' on anyone, y'know.

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

I am not jealous of a lonely jester.

[ ... perhaps just a small amount. ]

RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE]

[voice]

[scimitar]

I ain't gonna admit to anythin', so jus' quit while yer ahead.

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

Maybe you are almost as stubborn as I am.

[voice]

[scimitar]

... Yeah, sure.

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

What is the harm in admitting that you are bothered by something?

[voice]

[scimitar]

I'd be bothered IF I felt lonely, yeah! But I'm not!!

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

Not lonely?

You do not even have your people here.

[voice]

[scimitar]

Hahahahahahha!

Now that's an easy one! I got friends here!

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

[voice]

[scimitar]

Marcy, Yuki, Hong Kong, you, America, Sai...

[eyeforaneye]

[ Guess who still never expects to be on these lists. Especially this one. ]

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

You think of those people as true friends so quickly? How could you know for certain?

[voice]

[scimitar]

True friends?

[uh...


well, he does like to assume relationships are a lot better than they actually are.]

I like 'em well enough...

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

They sound more like distractions than anything. Maybe that is all you think you need for now.

[voice]

[scimitar]

Distractions? Really?

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

Just enough to get you by. Distractions from problems. That kind of thing. You want to believe that it is enough but it isn't.

[voice]

[scimitar]

It is, though!

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

Enough to replace what you had before?

[voice]

[scimitar]

Why're ya so gung-ho on me bein' miserable?

I thought we'd established were pretty different people!

[voice]

[eyeforaneye]

Not miserable. Honest. Too few people are honest.

[voice]

[scimitar]

So basically, ya won't take no for an answer, no matter how much I insist on it!
