[ he's going to help himself to some coffee and pretend he actually likes the stuff. ]

...Yeah. Lux got the final hit, I think.

[ him mad ]

Not a fan of her, huh?

[He is not getting coffee, it's bitter.]

Fair enough. Kinda surprised, seems like she gets along with most people.

[He continues playing with the string like it's the most interesting thing in the world.]

She's never given me a reason to be. Call me the outlier if you want, but no, I don't like her.

What's that? Something from your little adventure in Paris?

[ the necklace. ]

Don't think she's got a spine. But it's been weeks since I talked t' her.

[He continues playing with it like a cat.]

Yeah, stole it off the guy who tried t' kill me. Helped him transform into a super powered mouse.

[ snort. ]

No, you definitely nailed that one. She wouldn't even say anything - Manwol had to do all the talking.

[ to be fair, leo wouldn't have listened to her, but that's not his point here. ]

A... super-powered mouse. Well, sure. Why not. I've seen weirder things.

[Nyaaa.

He completely ignores the noise he made.]

Miss Ghost's better with her words.

[He finally forces himself away from the string.]

Turned into a lot of little versions of himself. What's weirder?

She is. That doesn't really make it better, though.

Our field trip involved a crazy naked guy who had skin like steel and a trip to the moon.

Dyin' always does.

[Nods thoughtfully]

... Weird.

The moon fuckin' sucks.

[ throws his hands in the air ]

Right?! The moon is the worst!

Exactly! I can't believe there are people who don't fuckin' hate the moon!

I mean, I think they just don't realize how bad it is out there? Most people haven't been out there.

The moon's the reason fer half my problems at home.

There's still a guy who's in love with it.

[ what ]

I'm sorry, in love with it? What?

The guy got his soul shattered and he's still in love with it.

[ WHAT IS HAPPENING IN MAHOYAKU ]

...Wow. You'd think at some point, they'd get the message.

[THEY FIGHT THE MOON]

He's fuckin' stubborn. That guy's gonna keep on bein' in love with it. No matter how much it fucks him over.

Has he ever considered therapy?

[He looks very tired for a moment.]

I only learned what therapy was here.

[ . . . ]

Cool! So there's no hope for the guy. Love that for whoever has to deal with him.

His soul got splintered so maybe he'll get less weird.

[ no. ]

...Wouldn't that, like, kind of destroy the person attached to the soul or something?

[ METAPHYSICS??? ]

He's still himself... Sorta. The soul pieces are just scattered around the continent.

I think.

I'm not sure I want to know how that even works. Is this just a wizard thing? It sounds like a wizard thing.

It's a moon inflicted injury. Probably best not to worry about that guy. The bartender is looking out for him.

[ everything that comes out of bradley's mouth just makes him more confused. ]

Is the bartender, like, certified for something like that?
