...okay? Do you have to like message them, though?

[windeity]

No, why would I? [It definitely doesn't occur to him to check in with his housemates.]

[parodeity]

Because the people you live with might be entitled to know if you plan on being late or not going back?

[windeity]

I can check in with them later. It's not really a big deal, they're just people I live with. [Even if they're people he also like ]

[parodeity]

Yeah. And we live in a place where people sometimes turn into stone or disappear.

[windeity]

Yeah but neither of those would be happening and I would go back to my place later. [Concept not being received here.]

[parodeity]

They don't fucking know that if you don't show up when expected, genius?

[windeity]

[He makes a face.] Are you trying to kick me out?

[parodeity]

Do you like it?

[windeity]

What, that you're kicking me out? Not really!

[parodeity]

Not knowing whether or not I'm even alive if I don't check in. [ which tbh he doesn't really ]

[windeity]

...well no, but that's different. You're my best friend.

[parodeity]

It's not that different. They're the people you live with. You kind of owe them the courtesy of hey I'm not dead? More than you do to me even.

[windeity]

...I'll update them later. Really.

[parodeity]

Sooner rather than? If you intend to stick around, I mean.

[windeity]

...can I borrow your laptop then?

[parodeity]

Yeah. Finish your soup up first though.

[ says dave, a hypocrite ]

[windeity]

[SIGH. But he focuses on eating his soup instead.]

Anything else? [Sarcastically, but also maybe a little genuinely.]

[parodeity]

[ he starts to shake his head, then pauses. ]

Agility training.

[windeity]

What about it?

[parodeity]

Let me run you through it? Turning into the wind means fuck all if you don't do it at the right times.

[ he's still fussing about john's scrapes... ]

[windeity]

[He gives Dave a semi-flat look.] So you want to train me to dodge stuff. How would you do that?

[parodeity]

Games of tag. When you manage to stop losin' them, we'll know you're better about it.

[ why is he assuming john would lose... ]

[windeity]

I could beat you at a game of tag easily, Strider. That is an easy test.

[parodeity]

Then you have no problems agreein' to it. <Small.[ CAN YOU beat him, john ]
