and ever and ever amen

[motiv8]

. . .

I'm very glad I'm at least ranked above that.

Has he never heard Careless Whisper?

[fiddlestick]

Apparently not!!

[For rean, he'll link screencaps of the conversation]

Even after I explained it, he still didn't connect the dots!

[motiv8]

I

[The "someone is typing" animation plays for quite a bit after this as Rean tries and fails to put his thoughts to words.]

He may be stupid.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah. I think you hit it on the head there Rean.

I feel really bad for Venti. You can tell by his playing he's REALLY thirsty.

[motiv8]

...Well, you can tell. Whether I could is probably a separate story, and Professor Zhongli pretty much certainly can't.

Poor guy, though. I wish him the best.

[fiddlestick]

No no, I think you'd see it too. He was practically humping his cello when we were playing at the Vogue this weekend.

...

Maybe we should get him a bad dragon gift card. For the sake of his instruments.

[motiv8]

Okay, yeah. I'll grant you oblivious sometimes, but I'm not blind. Didn't think Professor Zhongli was, either, but apparently we're dealing with a special case, here.

...Given that revelation Jusis just gave us? I think that's a great idea.

[fiddlestick]

No kidding. To think this guy lived through the JAZZ ERA and still didn't know saxophones are sexy.

Well it's that or help Venti figure out what turns a dragon on-- and I rather spend my mortal life not learning that knowledge.

[motiv8]

It's honestly a mystery to me.

...Yeah. I mean, on one hand, the part of me that enjoys cursing itself is kind of intrigued. On the other, I never want to know that about Professor Zhongli ever, so.

[fiddlestick]

Ah. Right. I forgot that guy was somehow a professor...

[But he also knows Rean. And Rean's tendency to meddle like a good gofer]

Well, if you find yourself getting involved, just know that I love you and you'll always have my emotional support.

And I still have that list of trauma counselors I sent to Ash.

[motiv8]

Don't misunderstand - the man is brilliant when it comes to history. Probably helps that he has seen a lot of it.

The problem comes in when you're expecting... I don't know. Social graces? Common sense? Noticing someone humping a cello?

Listen, I'm going to try to keep myself out of that as far as I can, though. Something tells me I'd get laughed out of the room from sheer hypocrisy and that's just not worth the cursed knowledge.

[noblerise]

No, because he's an immortal dragon who probably thinks opera is still current for music trends.

[Jusis would tell them that Zhongli's also a former god, but that would require enough drinks to make him forget the fact that THE BLACK ORDER HAS A GOD UNDER THEIR THUMB.]

[fiddlestick]

He's a what now?

[noblerise]

An immortal dragon.

[fiddlestick]

[What the friiiiiiiiiiiiick]

Just whenever I think things can't get weirder, this town finds a way.

So Venti wants to hook up with an immortal dragon. Which probably makes him immortal himself. I guess that'd explain why he knows so many instruments.

[noblerise]

[....

Oh no.

Several things clicked into place and now Jusis has a strong desire to pull out the good vodka.]

I need to lie down for a few hours.

[fiddlestick]

[!]

Are you okay...?

[noblerise]

I'll be fine. I just had a few epiphanies in a short span of time and I wish I didn't.

[motiv8]

I am here if you need a cat to vent at.

[He has one job in this life and he is good at it, okay.]

[fiddlestick]

He makes a great venting cat, I can vouch for that. 10/10, very fuzzy and warm.

[motiv8]

Huh.

Well, you and I had pretty much guessed "immortal," but "dragon" is certainly new.

[noblerise]

It explains a great deal about certain habits, though.

[motiv8]

It sure does...

Something something hoarding all the gold... or expensive things, as the case may be.

[noblerise]

Shiny, expensive, and time is nothing but a question mark.

[Jusis doesn't type it, but there's an implied "in that empty head" at the end of that sentence.]

[motiv8]

Honestly, it's a wonder we didn't figure this out sooner.
