[scythegun]

[Thanks, honey.]

Yes, we were both sort of like that... I haven't remembered talking with him outside of that instance, but I imagine that was more or less how things always went. I suppose it's just easier to fall back into that.

[manufactured]

...Either way, I think it's good that you want to talk to him.

[...did he say something weird, he thinks he might have, you're making that face.]

[scythegun]

[it's okay, it's nothing bad...]

Yes, I think so too. I really am trying to be more open and honest. It's... well, I have a lot I need to relearn and I have a long way to go, but I feel like I'm headed in the right direction. It only took me this long...

[manufactured]

[he does his best, jaeger...]

I really do think you're doing well, you know.

[He'll pull his hand back then; he should probably actually drive.]

[scythegun]

[That's fine, he's doing better now, at least!]

I'm really happy to hear it. It really does feel like I've come a long way from where I started. It certainly hasn't been easy, but I'm happy I've managed this much.

[manufactured]

[Just...give him a moment to put the car in gear, then, and we can go.]

You really should feel happy for yourself. It's an accomplishment.

[scythegun]

Honestly, I never would have believed I could change this much. I'm glad I have, though.

[...]

Thank you, Albert. I'm feeling better now. Praise always does help, you know~!

[You should absolutely praise him all the time!!]

[manufactured]

I'm aware. That's why I tend to do it sparingly - so it means something when I do. I don't like compliments for their own sake.

[...I mean, it was a nice try.]

[scythegun]

[goddammit.]

Well, it is always nice... I suppose I can't be too mad about that, since I do seem to get a fair amount of compliments from you anyway!

[manufactured]

When you've earned them, yes.

[scythegun]

You make it sound like there are times when I don't earn them!

[manufactured]

That depends on the compliment.

[...guys.]

[scythegun]

Well, at least you can never say that I don't look amazing, ja~?

[manufactured]

You can keep trying, Jaeger...

[scythegun]

Oh come on, you're going to make me think you don't find me attractive!

[manufactured]

I've told you more than enough times that I do.

[One of these days he'll comprehend flirting.]

[scythegun]

[That gets him to laugh.]

Oh, I know! But I am trying to flirt with you, and you're making it a bit difficult! You can call me attractive at any time and I promise it won't inflate my ego too badly~!

[manufactured]

...Are you?

[...Trying to flirt with him.]

[scythegun]

Of course I am! I really do enjoy it, you know~!

[manufactured]

[He doesn't look over, he keeps his eyes on the road, but that does get something of a laugh out of him.]

You know I'm not good at that.

[scythegun]

You know what they say, practice makes perfect! I have no doubts that someday you'll be just as good as I am~!

[You're lucky you're driving, otherwise he'd be all over you.]

[manufactured]

Apparently I'm good enough at it when I need to be - or at least the mermen think so.

[...That is so surreal to think about.]

I never did try it with Birkin, however. I'm sure that pleases you.

[scythegun]

[Both of those get him to laugh.]

I'd be lying if I said it didn't matter... I'm very glad you didn't flirt with Birkin, yes. Save that for me from now on, ja?

[manufactured]

Of course.

[It's easy, though, even as he shifts topics a little.]

I did receive another memory of him, briefly. While you were speaking to Cumore.

[scythegun]

Oh, did you? What was it about?

[He's perfectly fine with the topic change, though of course we have to talk about Birkin...]
