[aubins]

In general? A good bunch. The ones I spend the most time with...? Exhausting. But they're good people. Had some terrible luck along the way, but they're all pretty reliable.

[probe]

That sounds like my friends, too. [they seem pleased with that.] You're lucky. I think having those kind of people is a really, really good thing.

[aubins]

Yeah? Maybe. [ he laughs. ]

They can be annoying, but they all deserve better than they got. I know that much.

[probe]

How'd you meet 'em anyway? That academy? [is lust just asking because they're nosy? yes. what kind of people does yuri attract himself to?]

[aubins]

In a... roundabout way, I guess. [ haha, abyss. ] We were all at the academy, technically, so yes.

[probe]

Are they the people you want to keep safe? Or are they different people?

[aubins]

... Them, and then some.

You're all aware of what we want, then?

[probe]

Yes and no? You belong to Wrath, so I'm kinda only sort of aware. Like...the idea but not all the deets? So that's why I like to ask and hear what you have to say.

[aubins]

Oh, so you know your own people's wishes, but everyone else is a mystery to solve. [ interesting. ]

[probe]

Yes and no! [lust...] Some of us know everything because some of us are boring and like doing a lot of research. Some of us don't know anything at all because they didn't wanna pay attention to the info we got on you guys. And some of us are in the middle.

So...we know the wishes but the extent that we know about varies between all of us.

[aubins]

[ ... he grins. ]

So some of you got lazy and now you're in the dark? [ t e a s i n g ]

[probe]

Hey! [wow!!] We had other things to do too, y'know!

[yuri no bully :(]

[aubins]

Like finding somewhere with a hot tub in the main room for us to all mess with?

[ ... they're all terrible. ]

[probe]

That one wasn't my idea either. [huff.] But more like putting together gift boxes for you guys! Stuff like that.

[aubins]

Ohhh. Was the glittery thing that explodes in water your doing?

[probe]

What, the bath bomb? No way. I picked the crown though! I thought it was cute.

[aubins]

Oh, the crown. [ hehe. ]

... Uh, who was the frozen slab of meat from?

[probe]

...you know...I'm not gonna shame anybody for their choices. [it's a secret.]

[aubins]

[ boo? ]

No shaming, only curiosity. [ it was wrath wasn't it. ]

[probe]

[they finish the purple on that hand and shake their head.]

Don't sweat it too much! ...do you still have yours?

[aubins]

The crown or the steak?

[ said a little dryly, before he answers properly. ]

Crown's in my room. Steak's in the really cold box.

[probe]

If you don't know how to cook it, you could ask Wrath or Gluttony. [just a suggestion. but also...]

...you mean the mini-fridge? [more kitchen lessons. it's fine.]

[aubins]

I know how to cook, Lust. [ he just sounds amused, not annoyed though. ] Just... it wasn't a fridge, it was the other one. The really cold box. We don't have those were I'm from.

[probe]

Just checking! [but hm.] The...deep freezer?

[aubins]

... The sounds familiar? Freezer.

It's in there.
