Yeah, that's what I was afraid of...

Maybe you should try an offer? Or at least try to make friends with it...

[Then it might less inclined to eat your faces]

[covenantal]

I was thinking we could make a small shrine, to at least honor it.

[fiddlestick]

Oh! That's an even better idea. Maybe they might like knowing someone cares...

[covenantal]

We should always honor those who have gone before us, shouldn't we? I'm just not sure what to include with the shrine. We don't have their picture, after all...

[fiddlestick]

Hmmm...
Well, what would you usually do to show people you care or remember them?

[covenantal]

Light some incense, and bring them their favorite thing. I can at least get some incense... and maybe leave a few flowers.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah! See? I'm sure they'd appreciate that!

I recommend yellow zinnias for the flowers.

[covenantal]

I don't know flower language very well yet... why those?

[fiddlestick]

Aha, I don't know flower language well either. Just that one, really.

They mean daily remembrance.

[covenantal]

Daily remembrance... are yellow zinnias your favorite flower?

[fiddlestick]

[More like he uses them to decorate his parents graves, but that's awkward to mention in your first conversation with someone]

Ahaha, something like that.

[covenantal]

Well, I appreciate the advice. I'll let you know if my offering is a success. I feel as if we're in this together, now.

[fiddlestick]

Please do! I'd like to know if it helped!

I'm Elliot. This isn't how I normally meet people, but it's nice to meet you!

[covenantal]

Yu Narukami. °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖° Nice to meet you too, Elliot. Believe it or not, I've made some of my closest friends this way.

[fiddlestick]

Awww what a cute smiley! 😄
I believe it! Some of the greatest friends are ones you didn't expect to make.

[covenantal]

They're called kaomojis. Have you not seen them before?

Agreed. （●´∀｀）ノ♡

[fiddlestick]

Oh, um sometimes I see anime fans use them?
But I've never really been that into that stuff.

[covenantal]

You know, I don't really watch anime, come to think of it...

But they're fun to use. There's apps for them, if you're interested in giving them a try.

[fiddlestick]

Really?
That does sound pretty fun...

[a pause]

Just checking
It's not culturally inappropriate for a non-japanese person to use them, right?
I don't want to make anyone mad.

[covenantal]

No, not at all. It might be strange if you adopted the use of honorifics if you weren't Japanese, but kaomoji are a universal language. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

[fiddlestick]

Whew, that's a relief. [There's a pause and-] ٩( ′ㅂ`)و ̑̑
I just want to make anyone mad.
I've seen how scary Tumblr can get.

[Internet is a scary place man.]
