[thinks about it for a moment]

I guess you could call it optimism, yeah.

[bxkautx]

Whatever you want to call it.

I think that's the kind of well that takes a lot longer to run dry.

[agleam]

What about you? Well drying up, or...?

[bxkautx]

There's always water somewhere.

[agleam]

[tiny smile]

I'm glad to hear that.

[bxkautx]

... Eh.

[agleam]

What is it?

[bxkautx]

Nothing.

So—gunning for Australia?

[agleam]

[laughs a little]

I cannot express in words how little I care about going to Australia. What about you?

[bxkautx]

I like games and I always wanted to go there, so. You know. It's a big priority right now, for me.

[agleam]

Ha. Well, good for you. Tell you what, if my team ends up winning, you can have my ticket.

[bxkautx]

Great! Now we just have to hope we're not on the same team to really increase my odds...

[agleam]

Fingers crossed! In the nicest way possible.

[bxkautx]

Got any hopes for who you end up stuck with?

[agleam]

Oh - I haven't really thought about it, no. Other than, like, not...

[realizes he never actually got his name and pulls his phone out]

[bxkautx]

Oh, Scaramouche?

[ she also is like. why does he have so many names. she is only calling him this one because she heard ryo call him that first and is like. ok that's the one for me, then. ]

He's not so bad!

[agleam]

He isn't?

[don't look surprised!!!]

[bxkautx]

... Yeah, well, I mean, he is. But.

[ BUT WHAT ]

[agleam]

[yeah immediately]

But what?

[bxkautx]

But it's funny.

[agleam]

...Oh! How so?

[bxkautx]

It's funny when you're not the target. And it's funny when people get so worked up over nothing.

[agleam]

Okay. Well, that's not great, but sure.

[bxkautx]

Don't be boring.

[agleam]

No, I'm gonna be this time, sorry.
