[picking over things for healthiest

...glancing at you every once in a while :|a]

[tendofu]

Agreed. It's a sad fate.

[stillyouridol]

But dwelling on it will just give us wrinkles and an unpleasant expression! It wouldn't do to go back to them looking terrible.

[tendofu]

You have an odd set of priorities.

[stillyouridol]

--What? No they're not. How are they odd?

[tendofu]

A "normal" person would perhaps say, "But they wouldn't want us to be sad" and yet instead you went with the appearance. It's odd.

[stillyouridol]

I'm better than normal, hmph.

Of course that's true but our appearance also reflects it, right? And anyway, we should look our best for them -- it's respectful!

[tendofu]

... Respectful, how so?

[stillyouridol]

It's like saying their presence and time is important to us, you know? We respect them -and ourselves- enough to make sure we look presentable.

[tendofu]

Understandable, but in such a high stress situation I believe it is acceptable to return a bit worse for the wear.

[stillyouridol]

But it wouldn't be good to make them worry, would it?

[tendofu]

Depends on how your stay here pans out.

[stillyouridol]

We should be taking care of ourselves anyway!

[tendofu]

Of course, that's only natural.

[stillyouridol]

Right! So my priorities aren't odd.

[tendofu]

It does not make your statement any less odd.
