[honestly, he doesn’t think about it too hard. It doesn’t occur to him that they could or should be closer. That wasn’t the type of relationship they had— just like it didn’t occur to him griffin would WANT to ride with him.]

I need to get my own if one of those.

I got a memory of driving one...

[he is never not gonna be broke]

[gigadevilbreaker]

What's stopping you? Still broke?

[He snickers to himself a little at Jay's predicament. And thinking on that Live yesterday as he enters the elevator,]

One of those Prims was saying we should do a target practice Live.

[mind_blown]

Got something like that planned with Taisho, if you want. Rope in my brother for grabbing people...

[he glances at him, curiously.]

2 out of 4 Prim’s suggested I do a live with you, actually. Guess we’ve made an impression?

[gigadevilbreaker]

C'mon, you know I love shooting things.

[Wait-- an impression? Oh no. Is that a bad thing?? Griffin blinks, not sure how to respond.]

Is that... okay?

[mind_blown]

Why wouldn’t it be...?

[the elevator is quick though]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Oh. Is he overthinking this again? Doing dumb shit together was still pretty normal for them. He... relaxes a touch, even if he's still unsure.]

Well. I can bite the cost of paint guns if you wanna do it. Still cheaper than live ammo.

[mind_blown]

I was gonna say rocks, throw up the targets over windows. So you’re putting more thought into it than I was planning.

[he shrugs, letting that whole moment pass.

It’s better than thinking too hard about it, especially with.. well. Two potential outcomes.

But the elevator opens on avante’s floor.]

[gigadevilbreaker]

Rocks. You really have fallen on hard times.

[You poor, poor man. Anyway, out of complete habit, Griffin heads into the kitchenette.]

--Y'want tea or coffee?

[mind_blown]

Coffee.

[look, he is very poor. And also minimal effort in every single live.

Also he is exhausted and needs a recharge.]

What good is a live if I spend as much running it as I get?

[a shrug]

[gigadevilbreaker]

Well, if you made it something like jousting, we get training swords for free with our Lives. Plus there's already horses.

[Sorry the coffee here's not as good as BAD END's probably. It's just instant stuff. Griffin doesn't have fancy taste. He sets a pot to brew and goes to dig around in the fridge for leftovers.]

[mind_blown]

Could do that. Just need to work in some property damage.

[while he appreciates bad end coffee, his tastes are the opposite of fancy.]

[gigadevilbreaker]

...Oh, hey. I still have some of those rice burger experiments left.

[ Why ]

[mind_blown]

... burger experiments?

[a pause]

... yeah, grab ‘em.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[It's like a bunch of squished, lightly fried rice balls with burger patties in between. Let's just quickly heat'em up.]

They're better than they look, I swear.

[mind_blown]

I feel like I might have given off the impression that I like high quality food.

Let me disabuse you of that notion now.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[dad energies suddenly spike. Has he ever seen Jay eat a lone fruit or vegetable??? No...]

Please tell me you eat something other than burgers and pizza.

[mind_blown]

[i have bad news for you]

I’ll eat whatever.

[at least he’s easy]

But seriously, who cares about presentation of food? We’re gonna eat it.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Tosses an apple at him.]

[mind_blown]

[he catches it and raises an eyebrow]

Thanks.

[he’ll fucking take a bite thank u. Energy is important.]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[The dad urge is satisfied, for the moment. Anyway, that's enough time for the coffee to brew, and the rice burgers to warm. He pours two cups and slides them over, spins to pop open the oven on the backhand and ejects the food onto a waiting plate in one Stylish, completely unnecessary motion.]

Order's up!

[mind_blown]

Nice.

[look. He is actually impressed with that. It’s the kind of unnecessary in its proper place. But he needs to finish the apple before he starts on the others.]

Smells good.

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Griffin's adding a generous helping of cream to his own mug of coffee.]

You take anything in yours?

[mind_blown]

Cream and sugar.

[his tastes.... they aren’t refined. At all.

He’s also gonna just take a look at the hamburger rice ball... honestly, it looks fine to him?]

[gigadevilbreaker]

[Is that spaghetti sauce on the burger?

Yes.

Anyways, coffee with cream and sugar, all for Jay. Griffin glances around as he sips his coffee, noting the sleeping kittens curled up on the couch.]

...Guess no one's home right now.

[mind_blown]

[weird,

He’s gonna eat it anyway.]

Is that so?

[coffee sip]
