[ oh well ... Aventurine has to assume he tried them and doesn't like them, then. Why else would he give them? He's sharp catching onto many things that are conflicting but not when it comes to this kind of thing. He'll shrug lightly. ]
Oh, your trash, my treasure, then. Thanks.
[ starts opening a candy after putting the others on the coffee table. He hasn't exactly told most people this except those that have seen him do it already, but...
shrugs his shoulders more slowly this time with some disappointment. ]
Dunno. More than a week probably. I'm what they call a Lightweaver, so without the daylight I'm cooked by any other types here after one or two battles.
Cooked? [ this man died a while ago, he has no idea what the kids are saying these days. but he can sort of infer. probably? he also has no idea what a lightweaver is, but he can also infer that it involves needing some kind of light. ]
You been laying like this the whole time?
[ a pause. ]
You could've called me.
[ we'll take 'things he should also be saying to megumi, probably, but won't' for 100 alex. ]
Not exactly. I went out once when I felt one of my tethers in trouble, but it took a lot out of me.
[ Aventurine pops the unwrapped candy into his mouth before slowly tilting his head back to look up at Toji like he has three heads.
He said that so easily and could have definitely said it to Megumi, what the heck! Okay, but if Aventurine wants to help Megumi with his dad issues in any way, he knows that pointing this out right now would be a really bad idea.
... And actually, it's probably a bad idea to point out that's such a strange thing to hear from him because maybe he doesn't even realize it? (He totally has to realize it, right?)
Luckily, Aventurine has a third thing he could say that also came to mind around the same time. ]
Uh huh... [ he shifts the candy in his mouth as he sucks on it thoughtfully. ] Annddd.... you'd, what, come hang out with me?
[ toji just gives aventurine this like. flat stare, like aventurine's being fucking difficult for some reason but toji has no clue what that reason might be. he looks away, shrugging. he's too emotionally constipated to point out that he came last time no questions asked. ]
I mean, if you'd rather get sucked into some black abyss or eaten by some fucked up monster just say that.
Oh please, that's not what I meant. I'm too good-looking to let myself go like that.
Even I know asking someone to stay with me while Sleep is playing games in the dark is too much entitlement. I can't expect you to stay here for days or weeks.
