( He makes a singularly rude noise at the poke, making a beeline for the rows upon rows of claw machines. )
Don't, I know it's disgusting. ( But it makes Satoru happy, and even if Geto does not feel like much of a person who is allowed a boyfriend, he's not going to question it. ) And it's probably for the best that you haven't met. I don't think the structure of our base could handle it. You'd likely goad each other on.
( He shoves a hand in his pocket, pulls out two little pre-paid machine cards, one of which he tosses Jinx's way. )
I'm saying you're the same mischievous breed, Jinx-san. There's nothing wrong with that, I think a little fire is commendable.
( He likes Jinx. They may not have spoken much but he's heard of her long before they met and he knows enough to have made his mind up. He is not lying when he says she reminds him of his own girls. )
The world likes to cow that in young women. I prefer it when they don't let it.
( He doesn't believe it, but he lets her have her bravado, moving to the machine beside her to win a particularly ugly skeleton thing. There's something very funny about looming over the machine like this. He looks a little out of place. )
[ how does she want it to change? she doesn't want another zaun. she didn't love zaun down to her bones the way silco did. it's her home, but it's a home that picked at her. not that piltover's blameless, but even the people of zaun tore at each other. picked at the carcass.
that's why she felt like a poor symbol. a moment of awe for what? her? this shambling person? ]
Be nice if we could leave.
[ but that's not her real answer and she looks . . . antsy. ]

[ jinx snickers, poking him in the shoulder. ]
And nope, never seen the guy. Silco never brought him up either, so I'm guessing he's not in the elite circle.

[ but jinx doesn't seem too fussed as they make their way to the claw machines. she reaches for the controls, feeling them out. ]
Are you saying I'm not a goddamn delight?

Pssh, they're just scared. That's what it all comes down to.
Me? I'm not scared of anything anymore.

Have you been enjoying your downtime?
no subject
Sure. Everything's here is just . . . kinda in place, y'know? Besides monster attacks, it feels like nothing really changes.
no subject
Ah, I understand what you mean. What would you wish different then?
no subject
I'm not big on wishes. Don't really believe in them.
no subject
All right then, another way. What do you want to change?
