"Oh, [NAME GOES HERE]" works for everyone, really...

[He and Tohru are returning to New Atlantis now. He wants to drop in, say hello to his mother.

It's admittedly nice, having a father who is powerful enough to go nearly everywhere with you.]

You're not going to the party for Rethe. Besides, he'll be there, but there will be a lot of other people around who will want to see you. They'll also serve as good distractions.

Myself included, of course. :)

[ Shaking his head at that text. Though he does admit, he feels just a little bit better. ]

This is his basic M.O. huh? Flirt to distract? [ You need a better hobby, Blade King. ]

SENT: 02:53 AM
what? you're going to babysit me the whole night?

[ He means it as a joke. ]

SENT: 2:54 AM
I could if you want me to, together with being charming and wonderful to everyone else. :p

[You know he could do it.]

[larue]

[ He knows you could. That's... actually why he hesitates right before he texts back. ]

SENT: 02:57 AM
okay. i'll go.
but you don't need to look out for me.
i'll figure it out.

SENT: 2:58 AM
I do. You're a friend, and I am worried about you.
Fear not. I won't be obvious about it at all.

[No smiley this time, because he wants to make sure that you know he means it.]

[larue]

[ And weirdly enough... reading that back about five times. It helps.

Lighting up a cigarette now, as he turns his attention to Makoto while his message is being sent. ]

Was he always like this? Even before?

SENT: 03:04 AM
thanks. really.
i owe you.

[icarusalsoflew]

[Yes, at least in my experience. It's one of his better qualities.

That answer comes without hesitation, and just a bit of fondness. Just a bit.]

Get Brianna a nice gift, buy me a drink, and we'll call it even. See you at the party. :)
