Mao's bad day isn't as bad as Sousuke's

[urzu2]

[Mao is outside the hospital ward looking dejected but typing at her laptop dejectedly.]

It's always the worst when it happens to your friends.

Sergeant Major...i-is Sousuke going to be alright? I'd, um, check myself, but the infirmary staff told me to go back to my quarters and rest...

If Anguis...if he hurt Sousuke too...

[urzu2]

YOU know. Jump his bones. Perform the horizonal tango. Be half of the beast with two backs.

1/I'll let you know

[soylent_genki]

[soylent_genki]

3/4

[soylent_genki]

Okay done

[soylent_genki]

W-w-w-what do...I don...that's not...

[urzu2]

Oh calm down Kusuha, everyone with half a brain knows already. So, I guess maybe Tasuku doesn't. And probably Bullet himself.

[soylent_genki]

I-I just...oh, you're right, it is really obvious.

Why can' I just talk 'bout it like a normal person? Why can' he, either? We're adults. 'm old enough to drink!

[urzu2]

It's cuz you still think men have to make the first mood- Move. Make the first move. If you let men do everything we'd never get anything done.

[soylent_genki]

'sit wrong to expect at least that much from someone though? Just to know he...

...don' even really know if he...

...and now he's...

[urzu2]

Aw hey, hey. [Pat on the back.] We'll find him, and some day we'll all look back on this and laugh!

Well maybe not laugh... but you'll be happier!

[At this point, Katina finally staggers her way back from the restroom, only half the time of which was actually spent using said room.

She plops down on the other side of Kusuha, looking over.]

I leave fer... a few minutes and ya got 'er cryin' Mao.

[She throws an arm around Kusuha.]

Whassup?

[soylent_genki]

*face is now in Katina's shoulder*

m mbrsn msl--

*face is now out of Katina's shoulder so she can talk*

I'm embarrassing myself, that's all.

[urzu2]

I was just trying to give her some advice. Must've hit a sore spot.

[She leans over towards the bartender, one of the many in the area that she knows by name.]

Hey Tanaka! Get something strong and fruity for my friend here [Kusuha], something with a paper umbrella on it.

...Get me one too.

Excellen's a bar ninja

[floatlikeabee]

[And Excellen leans in over Mao's shoulder, beaming.]

I'll have one too!

*ninja'd*

[soylent_genki]

Ex...um, Lieut...um, Excellen, you're here too?
