“I thought you of all people would be different.” “This was supposed to be a fun day. You always ruin everything.” “Our flight’s been cancelled… there goes our holiday.” “I’m not angry. I’m disappointed.” “I know you didn’t do it on purpose, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be disappointed.” “I can’t believe this. You always turn everything into such a disaster!” “I’m not disappointed in you, I’m disappointed in the situation…” “I can’t believe this is happening. Can nothing ever go right?!” “I’m so sorry to let you down. I know you were looking forward to this.” “You always let me down. You’re so unreliable.” “I’d expected a lot more from you.” “Stop being so selfish! You’re ruining everything for everyone.” “You’re such a disappointment to the family.” “I’m sorry to be such a disappointment. I know you expected more of me.” “That movie was so disappointing.” “Why is everything in life actually so disappointing? You get yourself excited every time, only to be let down, time and time again.” “You’re not disappointing! Just… surprising.” “I thought you cared about me. Someone who cares about someone else doesn’t let them down like you just did.” “You could’ve tried harder!” ”I’m not going to lie… I am disappointed.” “No no! You’re great, but the sex was just really disappointing.” “Honestly, you’re the biggest disappointment of my life.” “You weren’t there for me when I needed you. Why do you expect me to be here for you now you need me?” “I had higher expectations of this.” “I had higher expectations of you.”

YES VERY GOOD MUCH FAVE WOW

Wincing at the other’s suggestion, he waved his hand dismissively. The one tea itself was terrible-- but mixing them? Ew, where did people even come up with these ideas?! “You got me on that one, kid. Like I said, some things are better off not invented. Blech, ew, gross.” Shaking his head to let that particular thought to rest, he grinned excitedly and clapped his hands. “YAY! I’ll graciously take you up on that offer! Gimmie gimmie!” He reached a hand out, clenching and unclenching it repeatedly. If his eyes were visible, they would clearly be sparkling and shining in anticipation. “What d’ya want me to write? I know some good Japanese poems! How much do you have on kami already?” In his other hand he had his brush, held like a pencil ready to strike. Aw yes, nothing could stop him now--! ...Oh. Wait. He stared at his brush for a few long moments before laughing sheepishly. “...You wouldn’t happen to have an ink well laying about, would you?” Well that dampened his spirits a bit.

“What, seriously? So you DON’T have a ‘your-dimension’ version of Earth or something similar around here? Huh! How’s about that! As for the name, well... Cute and cuddly when young, and a delicious staple meat when they grow up? HAHA!” Shoulders rising and falling in his mirth, he waved his hand dismissively. “Also shaking in fear even if you handle them gently, and dies of fright so easily! I think it fits you to a T!”

“ Oh I wasn’t being modest!~ These clothes of mine are simply wonderful to wear. But the words used by passing by’s are more of “The sound of his voice quickly changes. Putting his chin up and making it sound just like all the rich folks to high on their horses. “ Oh what strange clothes he wears! Oh just so horrid I believe he had grabbed some rags and sown them together to have their clothes!”Voice slipping back to how it were before in chuckles.

Laughing at the imitation, Saifa copied the other’s partially-hidden grin. Ah yes, so nice to find a kindred soul amongst the darkness of the multiverse! It was so hard to have a conversation where both sides were on the same wavelength nowadays. “Ironically they’re the ones with the shabbiest souls, don’t you think? Well, besides the diamonds in the rough-- or rather, gold in a field of pyrite? Yes, I like that better! Ah yes, that reminds me--” He dipped into a graceful bow, putting any of the rich folks they were talking about to shame. “--I’m Saifa, a TRUE pleasure to meet you, Shachi-shi!”

Watching the boy’s actions, he craned his neck a bit to try and read the open journal without invading the other’s space. “Ooh! Yep, that’s them! Is that an encyclopedia of creatures or something? OH! Am I in it?! I wanna be in it! And I mean THIS me, of course, since this universe’s me is probably in it already, right? C’mon! I’ll even draw you a picture!!” He whipped out a calligraphy brush from his sleeve, vibrating in his seat like an excited child and waving the brush around. What? He enjoyed the idea of his existence written and drawn-- he wouldn’t have let Takeda draw all of those pictures of him if he didn’t. He was a bit narcissistic, after all.
