[kaz offers zero resistance as limbo collects the mug from his hands and drinks from it. instead, he just seems kind of horrifically mesmerized at the act, enough so that his reply takes a moment as he collects himself, still blinking at the act.]
Uh. Right. You're so right.
[there's another beat as his eyes unfix from limbo, and slide down to the mug, before he points at it.]
[friends share things. apparently? he doesn't touch the mug again. the marshmallows continue to melt within its chocolatey depths.]
Oh, yeah. It's. Yeah. [he's still slowly collecting himself, but now that they're swapping away from this weird conversation, he's gaining confidence again.] Yeah, you should be excited! It's going to slap extremely hard.
[he's on his feet, and actually rifling through the kitchen drawers.]
I can't wait to see the look on your face when it's done!
[kaz successfully withdraws a pair of kitchen scissors, and gives them a trial air run. snip snip!! nice and sharp. he beams.]
Sure! Who hasn't practiced their burgeoning stylist skills on their mechabutler equipped with the hair fabrication module? Ah, what nostalgic youthful memories.
Really? What about your sweet years in the ivory towers in your family's favored educational institution? The falling sakura petals, the bright dreams, your bomb school uniform...
[kaz sighs, cheerful nostalgia taking over completely.]
[That makes the priest burst out in a low chuckle.]
Huhuhuhu. You know, I don't know how old I am! I am summoned in the peak of my time, so perhaps I'm supposed to be around that age or younger? Maybe even your age! Who knows!
[they wink all the way to the bathroom, where kaz proceeds to give him the best haircut ever, increasing the eboy level of the skilodge by at least tenfold.]
[kaz pushes a pile of hair out of the way in order to move around to the other side of limbo. it probably jingles.]
Of course! And this is exactly what the doctor ordered when it comes to your jaw line, Father—look, soft, hard! It's a mixture of geometry and chaos, straight-laced and sultry!
I hope you didn't want the bells back, by the way. I have no idea where they are, now.
[Limbo turns his head this way and that, before nodding. Time to become an E-boy Robert Pattinson.]
Mmm. I don't mind the loss of the bells. And it does accentuate my earrings, huhuhu. [A grin.] Do you think I'll attract a lot of people like this? Hahaha! I'm just saying, since you're basically saying I look beautiful...
I mean, objectively speaking, you're an absolute work of art, so in terms of physicality, it'll definitely be like flies to honey! But I personally am not in the habit of making out with guys, especially guy friends, sober or otherwise intoxicated! So! Haha!
[the laugh creaks a little, and he changes the topic immediately.]
By the way, what's up with you and the number nine?
Not in the habit? Maybe we should make it a habit.
[LIMBO, NO]
Nnnn? Nines? [.............Wait a second. They reach up to their earrings.] Oh, these? They are my magatama! They are talismans of fortune made of jade, you see. Though even with their purpose, they're quite beautiful, right?

Uh. Right. You're so right.
[there's another beat as his eyes unfix from limbo, and slide down to the mug, before he points at it.]
Also, that's all yours now. You're welcome!
I'd better go set up the salon. [the bathroom.]

[Everything you own belongs to Limbo now. That is law. :)]
[Limbo puts the mug down with a nod.]
Lead the way. I am excited for what you will do!

Oh, yeah. It's. Yeah. [he's still slowly collecting himself, but now that they're swapping away from this weird conversation, he's gaining confidence again.] Yeah, you should be excited! It's going to slap extremely hard.

[Sure hope all the knives and scissors weren't stolen!]
Have you done this for someone before?

[More nonsense...though at that last part, Limbo looks almost sentimental?]
I wouldn't know. Mmm, I don't think I can recall myself as a youth.

[kaz sighs, cheerful nostalgia taking over completely.]
no subject
[Limbo's face is expressionless.]
If I remember...mmm. Probably not so idyllic. Maybe it was. I was probably a very different person back then.
no subject
[he spins the scissors around his fingers.]
What are you, mid-thirties? You must be hitting it now, Father!
no subject
Huhuhuhu. You know, I don't know how old I am! I am summoned in the peak of my time, so perhaps I'm supposed to be around that age or younger? Maybe even your age! Who knows!
no subject
Well, doesn't that offer you a degree of freedom? Now you can choose to be whatever age you want!
I'd still choose over 21, though. Life's not worth living, or even possible, without the legal imbibement of alcohol.
no subject
[Oh, right, that's a thing.]
Heroic Spirits do not need to eat or drink, but...haha, since I've been here, I've been both! I actually haven't drunk any alcohol, though.
no subject
Tragic, Father.
no subject
Not as I am, no!

But haircut first! A professional must have standards, after all!

...That was a friendship wink, by the way! Best friends forever!

[Limbo lifts a clawed hand to stroke through their...extremely short hair.]
This is...quite a change. I don't think I've ever had hair this short, before! This is really something modern, something people have in your world?

Of course! And this is exactly what the doctor ordered when it comes to your jaw line, Father—look, soft, hard! It's a mixture of geometry and chaos, straight-laced and sultry!

[his. magatama earrings.]

no subject
[ANYWAY!!!]
Jade? Nice. A classic gem for a classic piece. Now that I look closer, they match your light lip and eye color, too! Solid accessorizing, Father.
