"How is it? Do you see things differently now?"

[liberal_arts]

Very well... ask away, my friend.

[sakeplz]

Do you think swords do human things like dates?

[liberal_arts]

...

We spend much of our new lives as tsukumogami emulating human actions and speech. We eat food, though we do not require it, we drink sake, though our bodies hardly need to. We bleed, we shed tears...

But these are simply actions. They are reflections of what we know to be human physical behavior. Our emotions, our thoughts and minds and hearts, are still our own.

So I suppose what matters is if you consider courting a "human" thing, or something all beings can participate in.

[sakeplz]

[That's a lot of words to take in for his super intoxicated brain.

Processing...

Processing......

Processing.........]

Ahhhhh. Kase-san is so smart! Swords could court too!

[liberal_arts]

If you like. I certainly won't be the one to stop you.

[sakeplz]

Stop me... Ahhhhhhh! Kase-san thinks I'm hic pretty.

[liberal_arts]

Yes, yes, Jirou, I find you to be a beautiful work of art in your own right. But, ah... haven't you heard of beauty rest? You should really go to sleep.

[sakeplz]

Noooo. I want to talk with you!

[liberal_arts]

You said you wanted to ask me a question. I answered. Shouldn't that be it?

[sakeplz]

You're pretty... I bet lots of people want to kiss your face.

[He giggles a bit then gives another hiccup.]

[liberal_arts]

-Kasen groans, realizing he may be stuck with this for however long it takes for Jirou to get tired...-

I try to keep my aesthetics up to my own standards, yes.

[sakeplz]

So people kiss you?

[His eyes go wide in amazement!]

[liberal_arts]

No, they do not. People do not just kiss random strangers they think are attractive.

[sakeplz]

So you've never been kissed! Your lips are pure!

[liberal_arts]

I didn't say that. -And he wasn't denying it, either.-

[sakeplz]

[GASP!]

Who kissed you!

[liberal_arts]

-!-

Why are you even asking?!

[sakeplz]

Someone did! Who!

[liberal_arts]

... Alright, better question;

Why do you care?

[sakeplz]

Because if Kase-san hic doesn't tell me then I'll keep asking.

[liberal_arts]

Whether it happened or not, or who it may have happened with, is none of your business, Jirou.

[sakeplz]

But what if I wanna kiss you! I wanna be the first!

[Does he? Or is he just drunk. We just doesn't know.]

[liberal_arts]

I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding someone else to kiss. -At first he thought Jirou was genuinely jealous... but now, he's pretty sure it's just the sake.-

[sakeplz]

I already kiss other people! I wanna be Kase-san's first! [...Jirou what.]

[liberal_arts]

Yes, yes, a notch on you armor, I'm sure.

Go to sleep.

[sakeplz]

Noooooooo. Notches are boring! I just want to be first for Kase-san!

[He missed the go to sleep part. He's drunk distressed okay.]

[liberal_arts]

Jirou.

Sleep.

You're rambling nonsense.

[sakeplz]

I'm all alone and want your first kiss. Don't wanna sleep. Sleep is not drink.

[liberal_arts]

No, you want sleep. A first kiss is hardly something to be so broken up over. You're being hysterical.

[sakeplz]

Because you're mean and not telling me if I'm you're firs'.

[liberal_arts]

While I agree there is certain poetic, romantic significance to such a thing, your carrying on like this is just childish.

[sakeplz]

[AN IDEA!]

If you tell me I'll go to bed.

[liberal_arts]

...

Fine.

If you were to kiss me, it would indeed by my first.

[sakeplz]

[SUCCESS!]

Yay! [He crawls over and just flops onto the bed.]

Go to bed now.

[liberal_arts]

G-...

Go to bed? You are the one who called me!

[sakeplz]

[This is Jirou.

This is Jirou asleep.

Night night!]
