No problem.

[ cute... ]

Can you tell everyone else I say hi?

[wtfox]

Sure, I can do that!

[departea]

Great!

Lan Wangji still hasn't called.

[wtfox]

...to be entirely fair, he barely knew what a cell phone was, so maybe he has no idea what this phone booth is supposed to be?

[departea]

You raise a very good point...

Maybe Principal Bear can give lessons?

[wtfox]

...he can't even keep track of his own phone and his keys, would he be able to give lessons...?

[departea]

Well.

I never said he follows his own advice.

[wtfox]

That's true, a lot of people are "Do as I say, not as I do" types.

[departea]

It's simpler to just give other people lessons.

[wtfox]

I guess so! [a beat.] Anyway, I'll tell him to call you once we finish up here.

[me, checking the graveyard post to see if there are any threads i can sneak a tag into.]

[departea]

Thank you.

I don't expect the conversation to last very long. He's fairly quiet.

[wtfox]

He is. It's... kind of relaxing, though? Being around him, I mean.

[departea]

... yeah.

I guess it's like having a very firm presence beside you, right?

[wtfox]

Yeah! And it's nice that he doesn't get too preachy about things, either.

[departea]

I guess... if people aren't trying to purposely agitate him.

[wtfox]

Well... yeah, but anyone'd get upset if someone tried to agitate them on purpose, right? Even him.

[departea]

I know.

I just remember that was what annoyed him back... then... when Catra was riling him up.

[wtfox]

[she thinks about it]

...ohhh, yeah, with the pillows!

[departea]

Yeah.

He's just a stickler for rules, which is fine.

[wtfox]

...I guess someone has to care about the rules!

[said in a very "i don't" tone of voice]

[departea]

... diversity!

[wtfox]

...yeah! Variety is the spice of life, I think is the saying?

[departea]

Mm.

But I do think the different personality types really helps even each other out.

[wtfox]

That's true... it means we've all got a bunch of different strengths and weaknesses, too. So when we put our heads together we can do a lot more than we could on our own!

[departea]

Exactly! Imagine if everyone was an asshole.
