I know I haven't played on an actual board for a few months, but I'm sure my skills haven't suffered that badly.

[ He's also never lost in chess... sweats ]

Do you know any quiet places where we can play? I was hoping we can catch up, as well.

voice.

[fabling]

In a few months? Oh no, Akashi-chan! What if you've forgotten how to play altogether?!

[ #dramatique ]

Buuuuuut, I know someone who has an ice cream place with cats if you wanna go there?

voice.

[glorifies]

Unlikely. I continue to think of strategies when able. I've never sat down idle.

[ This is why he always looks so tired, tbh. ]

Hmm... is ice cream really all they serve? I don't mind going there with you, although I hope there's something I can eat.

voice.

[fabling]

Uh huh... of course you don't.

[ Akashi please. ]

There's some desserts too, but I guess you still don't like sweets, huh? [ She sighs. ] I mean we can find somewhere else if you want, or I can try asking Hizu-chan if he'll make you a sandwich instead or something.

[ Why are you like this. ]

voice.

[glorifies]

It's not that I don't like them, but... I suppose I can consider this a "cheat day" of sorts.

[ There's a lilt of amusement in his tone when he says "cheat day". Hehe. He's never said something so informal before. ]

Alright, let's go there.

voice.

[fabling]

[ Akashi please... that's so mild. ]

When'd you wanna go?

[ He sounds really pleased though. ]

voice.

[glorifies]

[ Look, ma!! He's cheating!! ]

Ideally, I was hoping we could meet today. Of course, if you aren't available, I'd like to see you when you have some free time.

[ Ouma is probably more sociable than he is, which is why he assumes that he may not have time to see him now. Who knows. ]

voice.

[fabling]

[ What a rebel. "Rebel" ]

Yup, that's fine, Akashi-chan! Anything for you. [ Thankfully telepathy isn't audio as well. ]

What time's good for you? Annnnnd do you know the Feline Nice Ice Cream parlour or do I need to meet you to take you there?

voice.

[glorifies]

[ He's totally a rebel now!! He'll end up committing crimes soon. WATCH OUT, VERENS. ]

Would 4 in the afternoon be okay? I have some things to do before that.

[ Like read and do groceries and work out. . . oops. ]

I'd also need a map.

voice.

[fabling]

[ I mean, with Ouma as a friend... it's likely. Somehow. Don't joke about this. ]

That's fine! I'll send you an image of a map, okay?

[ Which is what comes after, a mental image of the route from the merchant's square so he shouldn't get lost. ]

[ sheep stealing ]

Alright, thank you. I'll see you later this afternoon, then.

[ True enough, he gets to the cafe 30 minutes early than intended and has already claimed a table for he and Ouma. By the time Ouma arrives, he'll find Akashi by the corner with a chess set already set up. There are a few pieces on the side, white and black, all of which have already been captured by the opposition.

He's playing himself. ]

i read that as "he's playing with himself" sorry monica

[fabling]

[ sheep stealing ]

Yup! Cya then.

[ He arrives just about on time, flopping down on the seat opposite him with a smile on his face. ]

Y'know it doesn't really work if you play like this?

of course you did

[glorifies]

[ He's a bit too concentrated on the game so he only glances at Ouma briefly, smiles, then goes back to looking at the pieces. ]

Why doesn't it?

let me live

[fabling]

[ He doesn't even blink. ]

It becomes predictable.

[glorifies]

I highly doubt that.

[ Don't insult him!!

But anyway, he begins to place all the pieces back on their proper tiles on the board and then he sets the board aside. ]

Shall we order for now?

[fabling]

Unless you've got imaginary friends I don't know about, so do I.

Anyhow, did you look at the menu when you got here?

[glorifies]

I did have a look.

[ He wanted to be ready with an order by the time Ouma arrived. ]

I'd like to order a Peromei.

[fabling]

[ Of course he did. It's so predictable it's boring. ]

Sure, sure. I'm gonna have a Daimonia and strawberry ice cream.

[ It won't take long to order the desserts anyway and when he returns he looks pretty happy Akashi gets to see this place for himself. ]

I can't believe you've never been here before though.

[glorifies]

[ hey fuck off ouma ]

Well. . . this really isn't the type of place I would spend my time in.

[fabling]

Not even for the cats?

[ tbh he just comes here to harrass Hizumi half the time. ]

[glorifies]

[ This guy doesn't go out much, okay... ]

I didn't even know there were cats here.

[fabling]

[ Is he going to have to start bothering him more often. Geez. ]

You didn't? But it's even called Feline Nice...

[glorifies]

[ He might have to. ]

I don't pass here often, you see.

Anyway. . . You said your friend owns this?

[fabling]

[ Akashi why are you like this. ]

Friend... Dunamis teacher... Same thing, I guess!

[ Not really. ]

[glorifies]

Then I assume you're here often.

[ have they ordered yet they should order already i have the memory of a dory ]
