(He's old. This is just how he is now.)

You're still young. (And he's taking one more cookie. Three cookies total for Tsurumaru Kuninaga. He's a little spoiled but not quite greedy.) Don't worry, Nero-kun.

(For now.)

I'd be fine not gettin' involved with anybody. Not really built for it.

[cranelike]

As long as you're here, anything is possible.

(Vague.)

Even things can love.

[perfectdistance]

[Don't curse anybody into a relationship with this asshole.]

Do they want to?

[cranelike]

(Nero is a good boy who let Tsuru get three cookies. He's perfect.)

Does not wanting something keep it from happening?

[perfectdistance]

[Only because they aren't romantically involved.]

Not in my experience.

[cranelike]

Hmm.

(Just, "hmm," a thoughtful hum as he feeds another piece of cookie to Kiku,)

I wonder what surprises await us here.

(Because something is going to happen.)

[perfectdistance]

Probably somethin' unpleasant.

[Gestures at TWO dead bodies people will find today.]

[cranelike]

(It's fine... they weren't anyone important.)

Then we'll have to make sure to bring better ones.

(But yes. He's just going to gather up his cookies,)

You should share with the others. It would lighten their days.

[perfectdistance]

We?

[Hold on, don't go roping him in!]

I'll think about it.

[cranelike]

(Too late.)

Not enough to think about already?

(Laughing just a little. He's amused by his own jokes. But with his story shared for cookies, he's going to excuse himself now.)

When you're ready for another story, come find me.

[perfectdistance]

Some of it's more stressful.

[ Anyway, he waves Tsuru off. ]

I will.
