you should be worried about your dignity, I'm not gonna throw a game just because you're a baby inmate

[your_idol]

[ Oh, how little you know. ]

You'd better not. My dignity is going to kick your butt.

[deuceoftears]

[Yeah, that's the attitude he was hoping for.]

[deuceoftears]

[deuceoftears]

[your_idol]

Cocky.

[deuceoftears]

i'm as arrogant as i am brilliant, it's true

but also there's the fact that you played your very sad love song for everybody so you kinda did confirm it

[your_idol]

So very sad.

What did you think?

[deuceoftears]

The door slides open before he knocks, showing a tasteful but comfortably lived-in, only slightly uncanny hexagonal living room. There's a knitting basket on a chair, and Jedao is fussing with a bright red and gold tea set, a bizarre bright note in the gentle greens and pale wood decor.

Jedao smiles and waves, as a little cat-sized silvery-white dragon trots over to inspect Jinu, flapping his wings a little as he stands on his back legs to get a better view.

"That's Jeep, he's harmless, except to snacks."

[your_idol]

The sliding door opening before he knocks gets him drawing his hand back quickly, glancing around to take in the room and breathing in to take in the tea. The little white dragon gets the first genuine smile that Jinu's given on board and he'll lean down to let the little one get a better look at him.

"It's good to meet you, Jeep. My name is Jinu."

He looks up.

"He much of a talker or just a friend?"

[deuceoftears]

Jeep's snakey swan-like neck curves up as he examines Jinu curiously, making a happy little birdlike chirp.

"Not a talker. Sometimes it seems like her understands us, though. He's wondering if you have snacks."

[your_idol]

He turns back to Jeep as he shakes his head.

"Sorry, buddy, no snacks. I'll come prepared next time, promise."

Probably the most genuine thing he's said this whole time.

[deuceoftears]

Jeep cheeps again, then launches up with a slightly comical sproing motion and a few flaps of his wings, and perches on Jinu's shoulder.

"Guess he likes you," Jedao observes, grinning, as he waves Jinu over toward the couch.

[your_idol]

He'll offer up a hand in case Jeep needs any stabelization and there's a warm smile at the little dragon as he walks over to sit.

"Good, cause I like him too." To Jeep himself: "You're welcome up there any time you like."

At least until he could get Sussie back. His bird was a little particular about certain things.

"But I think you offered video games?"

[deuceoftears]

"Oh yeah," he agrees enthusiastically. The wall opposite the couch flickers - it's suddenly clear that an oddly-shaped end-table-looking-thing was the bottom portion of the game system and the wall above it is the screen; it opens along the side and Jedao floats controllers over to each of them.

"Seems like racing games are pretty classic across planets but I can probably dig something up in any genre you like.
