I can do both. Multitask.

[branches]

Don't.

[commandertoolbelt]

[ laughs ]

Where's the fun in that?

[branches]

If you're going to multitask shouldn't it be constructive?

[commandertoolbelt]

Both, Tsuyu. I can do both.

[branches]

[SIGHS!!!]

I guess doing something stupid while doing something smart is rather your style.

[commandertoolbelt]

[ he nudges tsuyu playfully. ]

Now you're getting it.

[branches]

I said before you were like Toki but I think actually you might be the opposite.

[commandertoolbelt]

Is that supposed to be a compliment? Because if it is, I'll take it. And if it isn't, I'm making it one.

[branches]

It's just an observation?

Like, Toki does smart things accidentally when he's doing dumb things, but you're intentionally doing dumb things to cover up smart things.

[commandertoolbelt]

Like I said before, it helps keep people on their toes. And it's just more fun. I don't see much point in being smart if it means I can't still have fun.

[branches]

[Hmms.]

... I think Byakuroku would probably approve of something like that.

[commandertoolbelt]

[ haha, hey, what the fuck ]

Think so? Maybe that means we would have gotten along, then.

[branches]

Well, he was pretty wary of humans. But maybe that was just because he was protecting me? So you'd probably be alright.

[commandertoolbelt]

Well, good thing I'm not totally human, then, isn't it? Finally, being a demigod comes with a single perk!

[branches]

[Snorts.]

He'd probably be interested in hearing more about that. Something new for him to learn about.

[commandertoolbelt]

Hey, as long as I don't lose points for the fire thing, I wouldn't mind talking about it.

[branches]

I mean, he doesn't have the same aversion to fire as me.

[Snake like warm!]

[commandertoolbelt]

[ HIS DAD IS A SNAKE????? ]

Oh, well in that case, great! I didn't know it was just a you thing.

[branches]

[AND HIS BROTHER IS A BIRD!]

Well Byakuroku is a snake demon instead of a tree spirit. [And just preempting;] He’s not related to me by blood. My tree was grown from a clipping of his master’s who was my predecessor. He raised me since I was born.
[Thus he is Dad.]

[commandertoolbelt]

[ WHAT? ]

You did tell me he wasn't your real dad, but... [ SNAKE? ] Gods, every time I think I know something about about you, you throw another curveball. What's next - your favorite color is purple?

[ he doesn't sound all that pressed about it, at least...? ]

[branches]

[Well a bird demon. Anyway, Tsuyukusa scowls.]

He is my real dad.
[And how dare you suggest otherwise just because they aren't blood related.]

[commandertoolbelt]

[ nudges him! ]

I know. I meant by blood - branch? Whatever.

[branches]

[Huffs!]

I mean, it's not like I have parents related by blood anyway? But Byakuroku is the one who raised me.

[commandertoolbelt]

You don't have to explain it to me, man; I know it's different for you guys. Tree, snake, whatever. Doesn't make a difference as long as he matters to you, right?
