[manufactured]

I know you will.

[And it does seem like he believes that, at least, don't worry about that.]

[scythegun]

I'm glad you have such faith in me!

[He's really pleased by that, okay.]

[manufactured]

Well, you generally have been better about telling me things, if they're important enough or I ask you to.

[...Better than he is about it, even, given that he often tries to avoid the subject, but shhh.]

[scythegun]

I've been trying to get better about it. It still isn't easy, but I kind of doubt it ever will be.

[He sounds so pleased anyway...]

[manufactured]

[You are so proud of yourself...]

...It isn't easy for me, either, though I suppose there are several reasons for that.

[SELECTIVE...MUTISM...PROBLEMS...]

[scythegun]

[Yeah. Yeaaaaaaahhh...]

It's alright, you know. I don't mind it. I'm just happy you'll talk to me about it!

[manufactured]

As long as you're certain. I'm aware that it's agitating at times.

[...For, like, everyone involved.]

[scythegun]

It's really not that bad, Albert. I don't mind doing what I can for you, even if that's just listening!

[manufactured]

Still generally opposed to the quiet, though, I've noticed.

[It's lighter than it usually is, though; honestly, he does appreciate Jaeger just talking at him until a conversation falls out.]

[scythegun]

[hey who said you could tease him???]

Well, yes, but I've always been the talkative sort! Sitting in silence just doesn't suit me!

[manufactured]

I'd have to be concerned if you started doing that, really.

[scythegun]

It would be a bit alarming, wouldn't it...? Oh well, I suppose you'll have to put up with me talking all the time!

[manufactured]

Said as though I mind it in the first place.

[scythegun]

[ c: ]

Good, I'd be a bit disappointed if you did! That's one thing I don't think I'm capable of changing, after all!

[manufactured]

It isn't as though conversation is particularly my strong point, anyway, and I'm well aware of it.

[scythegun]

You usually do perfectly fine with a bit of prompting! I certainly don't mind it, anyway.

[manufactured]

As long as you're certain.

[...You know, this is probably the world's most awkward thing to say, but.]

It's not like that in my memories, you know. There aren't nearly as many problems with it - if any at all exist, I haven't seen it. It's possibly the most desirable trait I've seen out of him so far.

[scythegun]

Really? That's interesting.

[It certainly means that this Wesker is different from the one in his memories, but Jaeger doesn't say it.]

I can certainly see how that would be a desirable trait. I really don't mind it at all, though. You don't ever need to worry about that.

[manufactured]

[He does have suspicions as to why that might be, but it is a good sign, at least, regardless of why it exists.

...Ah, right - ]

I also have something in that box outside; I've already seen it, and I have no interest in it for the time being, if for no better reason than I've nowhere to put it and not much of a desire to look at it for very long.

[scythegun]

Oh, what is it?

[That sounds... interesting, though it doesn't sound like it's a good sort of interesting.]

[manufactured]

[He doesn't seem bothered by its existence, for what it's worth, just kind of...eh.]

I could show it to you, if you want to see it. It's an awkwardly-posed portrait of myself and one other person.

That "Alex" person we were discussing was apparently my sister.

[scythegun]

Oh, I hadn't even considered that Alex might be a woman's name...

[Huh. An awkwardly-posed portrait...]

I'd like to see it, if that's fine with you.

[He's kind of curious just how awkward this picture really is.]

[manufactured]

When we're done here, then, I can get it for a few minutes; I still have the ticket for it on me.

[...Because what else is he supposed to do with it.]

[scythegun]

Sounds good to me. You plan on leaving it there this time as well?

[He can see how it'd be awkward to keep something like that, but is it really okay just to leave it there...?]

[manufactured]

Yes. As far as I can tell, the best-case scenario involves them finally getting the hint that I don't particularly want the thing.

[He supposes he can see where having a picture of her might be nice in theory? But it's also kind of creepy, given that she's a woman he doesn't know.]
