You have not even been here long enough to know the true horror, Dandy.

[Karamatsu mutters thickly, his brows narrowing heavily.]

Back home, this sort of thing? The- the monsters, and aliens, and dying by monster or tiger attack or driving your go-kart off a cliff? That was a joke! It is not a joke here! You cannot even joke about that sort of thing without it happening, causing irreversible damage, and no one is going to laugh at that sort of thing, it is too "melodramatic"-

[Karamatsu gestures with one of his lower hands before letting it drop back into his lap.]

It is getting harder to believe that, you know? "It is what you do with your life", sure, but how can it be when every hand life deals you is shit?

[adandyinspace]

[Oooooh.

Oh.

Okay.

So he really does know what's up.




Cool.]

Hey hey, easy there, Kafka. Okay, I hear you, shit's been real.

But you're forgetting one very important thing right now: Dandy's here.

[karappo]

[Karamatsu looks bitterly into his glass, wondering why it's run dry all of a sudden, mid-sentence. Turns out it's empty already.]

And what can Dandy do?

[adandyinspace]

Dandy can do whatever the hell he wants!

[Which apparently includes getting all up in Kara's face.]

Dandy can finally open up his own BooBies and give you your own paradise to retreat to when shit gets tough. Dandy can offer you some fucking money for helping him get this show on the road, we could be making it big time! And Dandy can sit here and talk to your stupid ass whenever you feel like you need it, because apparently no one else will.

You said your cards were shit, and now you finally got an ace up your sleeve! Fucking use it!

[karappo]

W-well that is all well and good, but I-

[Karamatsu struggles for a moment, like he's having a hard time grasping what he wants to say. He's only had one beer, but it's clear it's already hitting him pretty quickly.]

...I did have someone to talk to, but then he...got all messed up by the gods, and now I don't have an arm anymore.

[He puts his glass down after finally realizing its not just going to produce more beer out of thin air, leaving it for the bartender to take now that it's lined with small scratches from his claws.]

Having a place like yours...would be incredible, Dn..Dadny. But I am not sure how much help I can...be for you right now.

[adandyinspace]

[So that explains the arm then. Dandy didn't really want to bring it up, instead allowing Kara to talk about it when he was good and ready. The hell is wrong with this planet?]

Well I don't believe in that shit, so I guess I won't be sacrificing your limbs anytime soon.

[He pauses.]

...So if we're going to make this happen, I'm gonna need you to contact me at least once a week, you hear me? [Dandy completely ignores the pity party, he already chose him for the job. Sorry, Kara, you're stuck.] I don't care how. You can text me or we can meet up here, just as long as I hear from you. And if I don't, I'm hunting your ass down, got it?

[karappo]

[Karamatsu listens while barely hearing what Dandy is saying to him. He stares dejectedly at the bartender, who seems halfway irritated Karamatsu scuffed up his glass, but also like he's well used to this sort of thing anyway. Unsurprisingly, Karamatsu manages to ask for a refill in the pause following Dandy's speech.]

Sure...alright. [He laughs hollowly.] It isn't like I probably still have a job to go to anyway...

[No, he definitely does. He's...definitely still the staff manager at Ebony Threads, probably missed while he's been avoiding work due to fear of his boss.]

[adandyinspace]

Yeah, well that won't matter once we get BooBies running.

[In contrast, Dandy's still on his first glass. Unlike some people, he likes to think he's a little more civilized.]

But I mean it, I will bust through your fucking door to make sure you're not dead. Dead people don't run businesses. ...I think.

[karappo]

[The Faerie waits for his glass to be returned before saying anything else, drawing it slowly towards himself.]

You cannot die here, I told you that...at least not. Permanently. Usually.

[Kuzuryuu and Gundam never came back, but...that seemed to be an unusual case from the norm.]

...also don't...please don't do that. My brother, he is a werebear...he might hurt you.

[adandyinspace]

So I guess that means you better call me, doesn't it? Unless you want to be the reason I end up in a hospital. Naaah, you wouldn't want that, riight?

[Motivation at its finest.]

[karappo]

I will...Karamatsu does not break promises.

[...what is he agreeing to again.]

But just...please understand that the...things- the climate here right now is...bad. It is going to make it harder.
