[oh my god]

[l. lifts a hand to his mouth to stifle a laugh]

Are you nervous, but in a good way?

[boneface]

[ just. just gonna. nervously laugh. ]

Ha. Haha. Hahahaha.

[ that's a yes. ]

[willandaway]

[. . . cute. . .]

Chin up, all right? You'll do great.

[boneface]

[ nodding!! ]

I — I wanted to go first, to help, ya know? And then I thought about who of the group I'd be interested in trying with a-and...

[ and he thought of wednesday because she is so cool. She is. The closest to Akira of the bunch, lowkey. ]

Well! It's fine. It's prolly wrong. Right? It'll prolly be wrong, h-hahaha.

[ oh god he's so nervous now ]

[willandaway]

[Squee you're KILLING me, here]

Does it really matter if it's wrong? Will that change the way that you feel?

[boneface]

[ i said this in another thread but she's COOL and she has STYLE and she is CLEVER. definitely not describing akira!! ]

N-No. No. I still wanna get to know her. Even as friends! And it's so early... there's a lot to consider, ya know? But if she's willing to do this then so am I.

[willandaway]

[I'm fucking dying, you do this to me IN THE GAME I AM NOT PLAYING AKIRA?? HOW DARE YOU]

There. That's the way to look at it. Whether it's wrong or right. . . none of that matters.

Just have fun, okay? And focus on the rest of what you said.

[boneface]

[ the all black wearing hotties who bewitch ryuji's heart........ ]

You're in for it next week though! I'm def gonna vote for you and Anna.

[ unless things RADICALLY CHANGE within a week which lbr. possible. ]

[willandaway]

[he's got a type]

[also god it's so hard to tell, things could change SO MUCH]

That's okay with me. I don't mind being put on the spot if Yana-chan doesn't.

[boneface]

[ he sure does ]

Or you come out with a new gf next week. Or bf. You seem to really know how to pull 'em in.

[willandaway]

[WHY ARE YOU ROASTING HIM]

I'm not-- hey. . .

[boneface]

[ NOT ON PURPOSE ]

I admire it! I'm not that brave. I'm, uh, kind of shy. But you make me wanna be braver!

[willandaway]

[. . . okay, okay, Ryuji saved himself]

I don't know if what I'm doing is "brave."

[Anna made him an offer he couldn't refuse. that's the extent of it thus far!]

But I am doing what I think is right for my situation.

[boneface]

[ it's what he does!! ]

Haha, when you say it like that, you make it sound like you're here for some important reason or whatever.

[willandaway]

[blinks]

It's because I am.

[boneface]

[ ...? ]

... Huh?

[ isn't this a dating show for teenagers ]

[willandaway]

[oh BOY]

I think a lot of people are here for the wish, too. That's not why I'm here, but I can understand why people may have ambitions beyond finding someone they. . . click with.

[boneface]

[ HE LOOKS... EVEN MORE CONFUSED??? ]

Wait, wait, wait. Then why are you here?

[MILD] METAPHOR SPOILERS

[willandaway]

. . . you've heard of the Crown Theocracy's Tournament for the Throne, right? I'm a candidate.

[EVERONE has heard of the tournament. . . right? right?? because they're in Euchronia. right???]

I'm here to gain popularity to become the United Kingdom's next king.

[boneface]

[ looooooooong pause. ]














Dude, what the eff are you talking about?

[willandaway]

[oh my god. well, Anna didn't know about the contest either, so I guess. he'll just. stick to the basics]

I'm trying to gain popularity to become king.

[he repeats with a firm nod. hopefully that is easily understood??]

[boneface]

[ just — ]

Japan doesn't have a king though.

[ wait. ]

Orrrr this is that other worlds shit again. Other realities. Freggin' other realities. You're gonna be a king in another reality? That's crazy.

[willandaway]

[other worlds?? other realities??? help he has no idea what any of that means]

I want to be the king of the United Kingdom of Euchronia. Whether it's. . . "another reality" or not doesn't matter.

It's my home, and I want to build it a better future.

[boneface]

[ COME ON, MAN. at least follow him on the journey of this is another reality!! ]

It is, 'cuz Maomao doesn't know what a video game is. [ ok ryuji ]

But, yeah, okay. I guess you got kings where you're from. And you wanna be one. Ain't you a little... I dunno, I never seen a king so short and young? Aren't kings adults?

[willandaway]

[god if only Ryuji was the only one who said things like that to Will--]

Age doesn't make a good ruler.
