hey. looks like you're all busy right now and joanne is down with a cold, so this probably doesn't have to be fancy. r&d doesn't report anything major for the next month so don't be dumbasses and make a problem of your own. don't fuck with the liaison, we're not replacing him. looks like there's some weird fucking stone at city hall now. enjoy that, i guess. pretty sure zee warned you about the stones, but if you broke it, that sucks and we don't know how to fucking fix it yet so good job, idiot. you might need to be a little proactive. r&d probably has something in mind, but good fucking luck getting a straight answer out of any of them but the kid. maybe they'll at least tell zee what they need, though. or if you're chill with the loss, whatever. that's about it. wait, right. joanne wanted to thank two of you for letting her help with holiday shit last month. thanks for not being assholes. the kid likes having stuff to do, i guess. and that's really it. later.

[He's not wrong.]

if you can!

[thebeastwithout]

((Heya! You want to thread this or just handwave it? I'm OK with whatever!))

[foeyay]

((I'm cool with threading it out! Either here or in a new log.))

[thebeastwithout]

((Sure! Let's just keep going here since it's still topical.))

[Gar logs off Retrospec that night deciding that Kamui is even weirder online than he is in person, but oh well whatevs. It's not like he behaves like a normal human being, either.

The next day at school passes as slowly and tortuously as it always does and by the time the bell rings, Gar is definitely ready to punch something. ...Probably his algebra homework. He has a few hours to kill before the designated time, but he shows up early, anyway, because Waffles.

By the time Kamui comes, he's gone through at least three already.]

[foeyay]

[That is certainly a sentiment Kamui can get behind. Both punching things and eating waffles. When he catches sight of Gar already chowing down, he giddily bounces into the guy's booth.]

'Sup, Cheater?

[thebeastwithout]

Gah!

[Gar chokes on a waffle bit and pounds his chest for a little bit.]

Wha -- Geez, warn a guy, would ya? And whaddaya mean, cheater?

[foeyay]

[Don't mind as he casually takes poor Gar's drink and sips from it while he chokes.]

'Cause you started eating already! You've officially insulted me, my ancestors, my unborn children, and my taste in music. We must duel after all.

[thebeastwithout]

W-What, I thought we were here to practice fight!

[Gar's mouth is still stuffed with waffles, so it's kind of hard to make out what he's saying.]

I can eat waffles if I want, man. It's a free country!! Washington died for this!

[foeyay]

[The fact that Kamui's only half-listening doesn't help matters. The first part, he deciphers okay. That last bit? Not so much.]

Yeah, sure, practice. [He waves that concern aside like an ugly curtain.] I promise. You don't have to chow down like it's your last meal though. Nobody's gonna die even if we do get serious.

[thebeastwithout]

This is just how I normally eat!

[Gar eats like a normal teenaged boy, that is, messily and endlessly.]

Stop judging me, man. Lemme finish my waffles in peace.

[foeyay]

No. Not unless you give me one. [He says with a straight face.]

[thebeastwithout]

You can have one if you pay me four bucks cause that's how much this overpriced joint charges for one pancake.

[gar huddles over his pancakes protectively]

[foeyay]

That's why I want you to give me one!

[He leans over the table, inching ever closer to that pancake plate.]

[thebeastwithout]

Nooooooooo -- !

[Gar huddles over so far that he gets syrup on his clothes.]

This is a special chocolate chip and cream waffle! If you're going to take one, you need to take the plain one.

[foeyay]

I'll take it, I'll take it!

[Kamui cackles in victory as he grabs a fork to spear his winnings and splashes even more syrup around in the process.]

Plain wins out over fancy shirt waffles every time.

[thebeastwithout]

Ya butt.

[Gar saws off a hunk of the plain pancake from the bottom of his plate and waves it in Kamui's general direction.]

Waffles are sacred, man. You can't just go taking people's waffles.

[foeyay]

[His newly acquired fork jabs into the offering and immediately heaps it into his mouth. He gloats, mouth full.]

I'll stop trying when it stops working. How 'bout that?

[thebeastwithout]

A'ight, next time I'm taking your waffles. ...Or whatever else you're eating.

[Gar frowns heavily.]

I'm finishing up my food; you can go bother the waitress for more free stuff or whatever.

[foeyay]

You're always free to try.

[Sounds fun, actually. As long as he wins. Kamui swallows his ill-gotten treat and hums with satisfaction.]

Don't take too long. I'm getting pumped again.

[thebeastwithout]

Getting pumped off'a my waffles.

[gar mumbles and grumbles to himself as he continues to chew through the rest of his delicious, as of yet unstolen, waffles.]

[foeyay]

[Kamui's grin stretches even further across his stupid, thieving face. Yes, that is exactly what's pumping him up.]

[thebeastwithout]

[time to wipe that grin off that stupid thieving face!!! ok gar finishes up and wipes his mouth]

OK, I'm ready.

How're we doing this? I got my practice aikido mat so you can fall without busting your nose.

[foeyay]

Oh good! [The words are hummed as he bounces out of his seat and heads toward the exit.] That way you won't cry as much when I wipe the floor with you!

[They reach the door, and he holds it open for Gar to follow.]

C'mon. We're going out back.
