[ off we goooo he doesn't actually resist at all so there's that! ]

...I mean, sure, but - deets about what?

[ hello?? ]

[chosenwang]

[ oh yeah, that's still happening.

waving his hand. ]

All in due time, my friend. Have you ever been to a waterpark before?

[commandertoolbelt]

Um... No, actually, I haven't. Somehow I missed that part of the Texas summer experience.

[ why does he sound so surprised by that lmao. ]

[chosenwang]

[ is that something normal in Texas? ]

Too busy with visiting various Greek myths?

[commandertoolbelt]

No, I left Texas before learning about any of that. But - live in a place that's hot enough, and there's usually a waterpark to be found somewhere.

[chosenwang]

[ That's the big state with the long bit hanging down, right? ]

It's normal for people not to realize what they have or can do while they still have it.

[commandertoolbelt]

Oh, gods. Don't think about it like that, man. You might be thinking Florida, anyway?

But no, it wasn't even that, I just never had a chance to go check out anything like that.

[chosenwang]

Your country is way too big.

[ Says the guy from China ]

Did you lead a busy life growing up?

[commandertoolbelt]

You could say that. I tried not to make a habit of staying in one place for too long. Usually that means there's no time for things like water parks.

[chosenwang]

[ Hm bad. ]

Sounds like you were on the run. You don't really seem like the vagabond type.

[commandertoolbelt]

You'd be surprised. Don't make it sound so bad, though, I turned out fine.

[chosenwang]

[ Uh huh ]

While you're certainly enjoyable to be around, the jury is still out on if you turned out fine.

[commandertoolbelt]

[ well, if you ignore that i'm dead... ]

Wow. You wound me. What makes you think I'm not perfectly well-adjusted?

[chosenwang]

[ And that you use humor to cope. ]

I would be surprised if anyone here was perfectly well-adjusted.

[commandertoolbelt]

Wow. What is this, a water park or a judgment zone?

[chosenwang]

[ He's going to get the thought equivalent of a scribble ]

It's not meant to be. [ It's meant to be waterpark and Tsuyukusa talk ]

[commandertoolbelt]

Wha - Tsuyukusa talk? He's here too, if you wanted to talk to him?

[chosenwang]

[ There's a pause as he looks up. Urgh. Thoughts

Time to just get it over with. ]

He's not the one I want to talk to. It's been a while since we hung out and we all heard a bit from him anyways during trial. Something about a date?

[commandertoolbelt]

[ and that is the sound of leo's thoughts screeching to a halt. ]

Why would he bring that up in trial? It had nothing to do with me dying.

[chosenwang]

People were wondering if he had something to do with your murder for a moment.

[commandertoolbelt]

What? He wouldn't - He'd never do that! Especially after I got my fire back.

[chosenwang]

It was only for a moment. You know how it is at trial. Have to throw out every possible theory before getting it right or right enough.

[commandertoolbelt]

[ his thoughts buzz unhappily at that. ]

I guess. ...Though I still don't see why he'd have to bring up the date for that. Plenty of people already knew we were close.

[chosenwang]

He panicked and had to let everyone know he really likes you in the only way he could think of. Would have been pretty cute if it wasn't at trial and about your death.

[commandertoolbelt]

...Yeah, that sounds like him.

[ he sighs. ]

Sounds like you know more than me, though? I don't know what else to tell you.
