I would prefer not to. [ SORRY. HE IS LIKE THIS. ]

[ smashcut to them setting up their little plastic cases and little plastic pieces. diluc inspects one of the battleships, before placing it on his board.
...i am too braindead to write a battleship game but they can make smalltalk as they play.
...or not because diluc is very focus on his board. he's thinking so loudly, my gad! ...perhaps i should change this placement... ]

Mm? I have just been alive a lot longer than most, and have seen many a thing. While I don't think I am more experienced in every situation than anyone else, I at least tend to have a higher tolerance for things.

It's interesting. Typically, most people would not have to spend time getting to know others, and then must be expected to solve their murder and bring a killer they also spent time with to justice. It makes you question how you form relationships.

he is quiet for a long moment, as diluc takes this game so seriously. this is so funny.

Are you good at planning?
no subject
[ this one over here. mhm. i think that'll do.
he finishes up and settle back in his seat. ]
Do you favor strategy games, yourself?

no subject
[ anyway, poor owner waiting on diluc... ]
...Shall we get started?
[ i rolled a 19 for battleship which is hysterical but honestly feel free to ignore it since owner has INSANE INT/WIS STATS. ]
