[thesettingsun]

Because I want to know. Even terrifying guard dogs are good dogs.

[manufactured]

They're not that terrifying once you're accustomed to them, and once they've decided that they're not going to do something like latching on with their mouths and refusing to let go.

[And he has no idea why he had to send that twice, he's going to get some sort of rude awakening later with regards to the whole misfire thing, but for now it's whatever.]

There are five of them. Ares, Hermes, Dinlas, Jovis, and Apollo.

[thesettingsun]

Four Greek, one Roman?

[At least be consistent, man.]

[manufactured]

It could have been worse.

[does it look like he cares.]

[thesettingsun]

That's true. At least none of them are named 'Fluffy'.

[manufactured]

God, no. Not even ironically.

[thesettingsun]

Pumpkin? Sir Cuddlebottom?

[Part of this is going somewhere else and Shuji will have so many regrets.]

[manufactured]

I understand that they're just dogs, but surely they deserve at least some dignity.

[thesettingsun]

That's true. You've never stuffed them in costumes, have you?

[manufactured]

I suspect they would kill me for having the audacity to try it, and I can't say it wouldn't be deserved.

[thesettingsun]

I think there's a special place in purgatory for people who put their dogs in silly clothes.

[manufactured]

Oh, trust me, I agree wholeheartedly. It's not as though the dogs did anything to deserve their owners' poor taste.

[thesettingsun]

Literally no dog deserves this nonsense. And that's one of the least offensive ones.

[manufactured]

...You can tell that the dog doesn't think it deserves that.

[thesettingsun]

That is the face of a dog who doesn't want to be dressed up as a vampire.

[manufactured]

Does anyone, really?

Save for certain occasions, I suppose.

[thesettingsun]

I was going to say 'nobody in their right mind' but apparently, my past self does.

So, nobody in their right mind.

[manufactured]

[What the fuck is this, what does he do with this knowledge.]

...Charming.

[thesettingsun]

Past me was a fuckhead, I knew that already, but now he's a fuckhead with bad taste in clothes.

[manufactured]

If it's any consolation whatsoever, you aren't alone in that regard.

[thesettingsun]

You and I really should complain about our past lives over drinks sometime.

[manufactured]

Perhaps I wouldn't mind that.

[thesettingsun]

Normally I'd suggest the Inkwell, but maybe a public bar isn't the best place to complain about our past selves, people will think we're weirder than we actually are.

[manufactured]

Something like that.

...Come over sometime in the evening this week. Not the weekend, and not Monday night, but any point other than that should be acceptable.

[Given that he's meeting up with Lucian on Monday and dealing with Jaeger over the weekend. But any day, like, Tuesday-Thursday works for him.]

I'll provide the alcohol; if you have any preference with regards to what we're drinking, let me know.

[thesettingsun]

Thursday works for me. I'm not too picky about alcohol, but don't feel like you have to break out the good stuff. I can't see myself swirling a glass of wine and saying 'Ah, the sweet aftertaste of this wine reminds me of my past self flattering people who already obviously know he hates them.'
