Yeah. He didn't seem convinced that a "pacifist run" was too possible. [ he just. sips his coffee quietly and kind of starts sketching a couple of hard lines. he stretches his legs out under the table, but is careful to keep them to one side for now ] I'm gonna be sick of the word "points" in a week.
Me too. [But that's... grim. Kaveh looks down at his coffee.] ...I don't imagine it's merely his pessimistic personality that made him say that, either.
That'd make sense... just... turn it all into a game. Let us... pick each other off.
[ makes a face and just doodles some little wiggly toppers. the actual topper, meanwhile, is scampering across the ikea floor with a little toy bear in his mouth. eiden just scoops him up with one hand and dumps him in his lap. ]
He mostly eats meat so, he's been doing pretty good with our limited options. I think this is probably like a buffet for him if you think about. He's so small and there's so much food...
I think, even if he's not with Quincy... we'll be okay.

No. He's definitely being real with us on that part. That's all I wanted to know.
So we're definitely going to have to be prepared for... that.

...Elizabeth mentioned that it may be a case of power. As in, whoever is reviving us may not be able to do so beyond a limited capacity.
[Which makes the whole situation... still very fucked up, but a little less cruel than he'd initially assumed, if it's true.]

Also Topper is just so dang cute. Kaveh looks at him and decides he would much rather talk about him than about this shitty situation, so--]
Is that your pet?

[ topper just squeaks gently from eiden's lap, poking his head up at the table. henlo. eiden just scritches him very gently under the chin. ]
I'd say we're pretty good buds, right, Topper? You trust me.
[ more squeaks, leetul. ]

Have you been able to feed him alright and everything?

[He
wants to ask if this means Topper is also dead but that seems so rude so he will not]
no subject
He definitely helps a little, even just by being here... never really had any pets before, so I guess I can steal Topper from Quincy for a bit...
no subject
Kaveh nods, though.]
I don't have any either. [Too broke] I've always been fond of the stray cats around the city, though. The ones at Port Ormos are even friendlier.
