Ch. 3 - Some questions are inevitable for Jack of Fables

[Written // Locked to men only]

We've got plenty of other hotblooded men around here, right? Sure, some of you are pretty girly looking - which is confusing, by the way. Not the point. There's a ton of babes running around here. Hotness central. Unnaturally huge knockers run rampant in this freakshow of a village. Hard for a guy like me to pick ( Read more... )

[voice], what men really do, [action]

[Robert decides to chime in here, since he likes Litchi so far - even if strictly friendship-wise.

He hadn't really considered whether she was attractive or not. He... supposed she was, though... Well, for a woman, anyway.]

Litchi is a wonderful example of a person. Whomever she is with, if she is with anyone, is surely very enamoured of her.

Her friend - the one she turned into during the experiment, the tall blonde man in the coat - was attractive himself if I am at liberty to say so.

I think I spoke with that gentleman not that long ago. I'm not sure of his appearance, but he sounds promising enough. Ha ha.

[Indulge, indulge, indulge.]

Ah, you did? I shall have to meet him at some point. Anybody who is kind to Doctor Faye-Ling is somebody worthy of approval.

[Robert has no idea that Yellow 13 and Litchi are dating. All Litchi said was that Yellow 13 was her "friend".]

[Still flustered from a few seconds ago...]

Ah, well, he's... apparently in a relationship. Not that I meant anything serious by it though. Just, I felt that if others could mention whom they found attractive, I may as well do so myself.

[A pause.] Though now this makes me curious as to the exact demographics of the population here.

To be honest I haven't seen very many women, and I do wander a lot. Perhaps that is just myself though.

Robert's voice is thoughtful.] Perhaps one ought to do a standard survey of the Luceti population at some point, then. [Never mind that there's someone who does that OOCly. It would also answer the questions about exactly how many people identify as what, which piques Robert's interest for multiple reasons.]

Why don't you?

... That's a fascinating idea. Perhaps I shall, in the future. [He's totally considering it, now.]

[Dave chuckles at this.]

Thanks.

[Oh! Robert hadn't expected the man himself to speak. Now the scientist is a little flustered.]

Ah. You're quite welcome.

I do not say such things idly, though, sir.

[A pause. Well, this is the first time he can say he's been approached by a man. But he's not bothered by it.]

I understand. And while I'm flattered, it just wouldn't work out. I'm already in a relationship, anyway.

[And now he's even more flustered because that totally came out wrong.]

Er, I didn't mean to imply anything by that... My apologies. [He'd totally be staring at the floor right now if David was in the vicinity.]

It's simply that I usually do not consider stating such things so openly. Though if you are in a relationship, I am sure that the person you are with is very happy.

[Still hasn't put two and two together with Litchi and David...]

We both are. I admit, I never thought I'd meet someone like Litchi here.

[A beat. And now it clicks.]

... Ah. So that's what Doctor Faye-Ling meant by "very close friend".

[Yes, he IS that oblivious. Robert coughs awkwardly for a moment.]

Well! That certainly explains why her form was that of yours during the previous experiment. But if she is your partner, then please allow me to say how wonderful she is as a person - not as if you are not already aware of this, of course, but she is such an amazing intellectual. [Yes, Robert is gushing. Doctor and scientist? You can't get much more epic than that back on Terra.]

As I told someone else, she's a lot more than just a beautiful face. You're right about that. And I'm very well aware how lucky I am.
