That's a type of candy, yes? I've been trying to learn.
[he wants a library SO BAD but he'll at least stop touching his face
and just manages a soft smile]
In all seriousness [not really] the gems on that bracelet are from a festival in Chi'shin, the capitol of the Earth Tribe. For now, we'll match. [he does a stupid little swivel back and forth to demonstrate how the gems glisten on his neck] They're fun to wear, and they have a story behind them!
but he'll excitedly tell the story!! he changes his stance like he's holding onto a sword and is excitedly waving it about for emphasis]
Fufu, they're the gems of Lord Geun-tae's most amazing victory!! During the series of War Games conducted at the lively Earth Kingdom Festival, Lord Geun-tae, the famous general of King Joo-nam's reign was able to triumph against not one, not two, but five other swordsmen in combat!
They're gems that speak of his bravery, courage, and loyalty to his men - that ultimately won victory and honor for his side! Mm, how cool, Lord Geun-tae!
Ahaha, no, but I do interact with his family now and again while I'm in town. Especially since the gems got more popular!
But it was a game where there were two teams - red and white - and each member was assigned a role. The Commoner, the Noble, and the King. Of course the general Geun-tae was the King of the red army!
Each wore a plate on their heads - [and he'll go to pick up another plastic bowl of pins, placing it atop his head] - and if you broke the plate, it'd be points for your side! Commoners were one point, Nobles were five, and the King, ten! Members of equal rank could break each other's plates, but Commoners can't break the Noble's, Nobles can't break the King's, and Kings can't break the Commoner's. It was part strategy as well.
[which geun-tae was bad at, and soo-won was good at but it's ok it was all to make a point]
Really exciting! By the final battle, Geun-tae was the only member left standing of his team. Ah, my heart's pounding just thinking about it!
[ as she speaks, she's pinning random pins to her robes. ]
Oh, so it's like some huge event, got it. [ she's just curious as to why he's got these - but this explanation makes it sounds like soo-won is wearing the equivalent of a raiders jersey so her curiosity is satisfied. ]
You nerd, calm down. [ she says, but it's affectionate. ] It sounds exciting.
[ she pins a skull to her her sleeve, and then one that says my soul was removed to make room for all this sarcasm right above it. ]
Yeah, I'm one of those people. I could probably swing a few hours in another reality. [ why not, right. ] Man, you move quick, don't you? Already inviting me to the renaissance faire, it's been like two days.
[ (woo woo voice) let's get crunk and watch the war games ]
Sure, sure. Tell you what, let's figure out what it is we're up against first and then I'll think about blessing you with my presence at your Medieval Times Dinner Theater.
[ oh my GOD, she pauses mid pinning (this time it's one that says i'm not antisocial, i just hate you) to reach over and push his face with her frigid hand. ]
Quit flattering me or I'm going to start thinking you're up to something.

Have you heard of the people who can travel between worlds? Maybe we can too, and I can take you to one someday.

Sure, sure. Tell you what, let's figure out what it is we're up against first and then I'll think about blessing you with my presence at your Medieval Times Dinner Theater.

[she doesn't mean actual dinner stop]

If there's a feast, I'm morally obligated to go so I can critique the food. You've just trapped me into this.

I'm merely being consistent!

Consistently suspicious. [ she's teasing. ] Anyway.
