[sengokus]

Whoa - cold!! Is this 'cause you're on the death job all the time or something?

[but he doesn't actually flinch away, instead clapping sloth's between both of his and giving it a warm shake. also trying to just warm them up a little?]</small But ah... No, I'm no hero. I can't even tell up from down right now... so I don't think fits me much at all.

[probe]

Whoops! Sorry about that!

[they don't try to get their hand back. in fact, they look a little shy when mineo grabs onto it to warm it up! there go one or two feathers.]

Maybe because I was born where no light could reach! And, well, I never went anywhere else after except to work!

[sengokus]

No light...?

[he looks thoughtful at that]

Then have you never been outside or anything? Do you get to eat wherever... you are?

[probe]

Oh, nope! Sure haven't!

I don't really have to eat, I guess, but I can.

[sengokus]

Huh...

[Well alright, then he'll take the hand he's holding and gently tug it for Sloth to come along with him as he heads down the stairs - ]

Then let's go to the simulation room! I'll take you to some of my favorite spots, and show you the best food.

[probe]

[oh! hm. this feels familiar. they go along with the hand pulling them along.]

Okay! But... I'm not sure I really have anything very exciting to show you back!

[sengokus]

Aw, don't worry about that. Just show me what you want.

But I was actually gonna ask - do you think I can get a first aid kit? I asked Despair and they wouldn't hand one over...

[he's just

so sure white's gonna stab someone soon

but off they go to the simulation room! hand in hand]

[probe]

Oh. Okay.

[the horn lifts like they are thoughtfully peering up. they are floating above the ground by a few inches, and they float right on it after mineo, hand in hand.]

I don't think I can, but... I can tell you that you don't have to worry about it!

[sengokus]

[ . . . ]

Why wouldn't I have to worry about it?

Do we not have blood anymore?

[why is this

what]

[probe]

[they have a hood on, but they literally look like ????]

If you didn't have blood, you'd definitely be dead!

[haha!]

[sengokus]

Mmm... then how come we won't need it...? I mean - everyone's got knives and encouragement to indulge, so I'm pretty nervous. Seems like an accident waiting to happen!

[haha]

[probe]

Oh! Well, because... you just won't! If something happens, there will be a way to fix it!

Probably.

[sengokus]

.... probably.

[he looks

a little worried]

No chance I'll get more details about that...? What if I ask nicely?

[probe]

[they sort of shrug.]

Don't worry, I'm a big fan of details! But, uh... there's none! Not a single one, sorry! Don't worry, though. Once something happens, we'll figure out a way to help!

I said I would take care of you, right?

[sengokus]

[ . . . . he just looks thoughtful at that]

You did....

I guess - I just want to look out for other people when I can, too.

[HE'S TOO NICE TO BE HERE]

[probe]

[mineo, why are you here, the hell.]

Oh, you don't have to worry about them. They'll be just fine, too.

[hmm.

they reach into they robes a second. and then produce... a single bandaid. they hand it to mineo. :D]

[sengokus]

[



fuck

he

he takes it. and honestly he's just losing it as he's laughing]

Thanks, Sloth-san!

[THAT WAS A GENUINE ATTEMPT. he'll reach up to pat them on the head again..... cute......]

[probe]

[they don't know why mineo is laughing, but they do not seem offended in the slightest.]

No problem!

[they will accept the pats. be careful not to get stabbed by the horn.]

[sengokus]

[somehow he doesn't! but he'll at least bring them to the VR room - ]

Oh yeah, you good with the robe and stuff? Do you have to wear it?

We're probably going to a place where it'd be hard to move around in...

[probe]

[they glance around, not like they aren't sure what the room is, but just...

...they are waiting and interested!]

Oh, um. We can take it off if we want! But... we look a lot different than usual! We kind of all agreed to this so we wouldn't scare the rest of you!

[sengokus]

[mineo will head toward the panel!!]

Oh... Are you normally not super feathery?

Can I see?

[probe]

[they slowly float after mineo a little ways.]

Right! Oh, um... I dunno. Do you really want to see me like that?

[sengokus]

Yeah!

[easily]

So long as you're okay showing me, anyway. However you are is fine with me. I don't want you to feel nervous or anything.

[probe]

Well... you know, maybe I'll sleep on it!

[haha]

[sengokus]

[NOOOO HE'S SLUMPING]

Ahh, that was such a tease!!
