[ instead of trying to argue the point, charles simply grins brightly in response, leaning his chin on his hand as he beams at junpei. yes, and look, he can be even cuter —
but oh, the question makes him actually focus on that, and he laughs lightly as he says, ]
Well, this android girl I got to know some time back seemed to be holding hands with someone I didn't know, and she didn't look pleased... And this older guy I went hiking with was actually participating in that speed dating thing, which I wouldn't have expected from him, but good for him, I guess?
[ then, less funnily so, ] I guess I should go check up on Kotone and Yu at some point. But I don't know if I'm the best person to do that.
[ specifically for the reason sitting across from him right now — because junpei is here while scott, mikey and yosuke are all gone. so excuse him as he just takes a moment to stare at junpei like he's the most precious sight ever, which he is — ]
If you're not the best person for it, I'm definitely worse.
[Both because he too is a goober, even now while on this topic scooting his chair forward a smidge so he can nudge Charles' foot under the table, a great moment for affectionate footsies— and also because, well, Charles is the wordsmith between them. Junpei might manage an "oh, wow, that sucks" and then collapse his own spine to get out of there.
So, well, sorry to both Kotone and Yu about their situations. Ahem.
Anyway, android girl, old man...] You seriously know everyone in this town...
[Bonkers. Junpei knows like twelve people.]
The android girl... Uh, how many android girls are there? She's probably the one I told about giving cheese to wild animals, soooo good thing she's okay. [womp. ahem.]
[ that makes him huff out a breath, not quite a laugh — yeah, well, neither of them is a great help to anyone missing their other halves right now. he thinks it might just make the situation worse, in the end, trying to offer sympathy when ultimately they're lucky enough to still be together... so he's going nowhere, instead choosing to duck his head and smile as junpei's foot touches his, before returning the gesture. affectionate footsies it is —
while they talk about others, that is. ]
Well, I have to fill my days somehow when you're at work, don't I?
[ said with a very sweet smile, with the full implication that he would definitely know less people if he could just spend all his time with junpei. which, hm, maybe it's a good thing he's at work sometimes, or they'd be even more attached at the hip... ]
You — right, [ he says, because of course junpei is telling someone to give cheese to wild animals. ] Uh, you think the animals will be like Gab?
[ no, that's not the point here, hold on, ] I mean, yeah, she seems fine. I met her at the farm a few days ago. She's a bit skittish, but this time she stopped to chat, so I think it's going better.
