[looks back]

It's fine. Not like I've been, before this place.

[florescences]

A new experience for you. Do you like it?

[kumeyuri]

[omnom]

The food quality itself could be better, but I know the appeal is in the novelty.

[florescences]

In the cuteness!

[kumeyuri]

[a huff]

Yeah, definitely to your tastes, huh?

[florescences]

I can't deny that.

[ she's trying to get uruha to say it's cute. ]

I don't hide what my tastes are at all.

[kumeyuri]

[ELYSIA...]

Well, it's good to know what you like.

[florescences]

I know if I like someone or something immediately.

What about you, Uruha? What do you like?

[kumeyuri]

As long as it's good food, I don't think I'm particularly picky... although I guess my tastes lean towards what you'd call traditional. But anything's better than rations.

[florescences]

At least that means almost anything will do for you. What happened that you had to resort to rations?

[ curious! also a little worrying but she's more smiles than anything else at the moment. ]

[kumeyuri]

[simply,]

Wartime.

[florescences]

This seems to be becoming more common....

[ not unsurprising but... still sucks how persistent war is. ]

Who are you fighting against?

[kumeyuri]

Was, not are. The war was a long time ago. [a shrug] These things just have a way of sticking with you.

[florescences]

I'm happy to hear it was resolved. War does have a lasting effect whether you want it to or not.

I hope it doesn't haunt you too much.

[kumeyuri]

I moved on with my life well enough.

[said genuinely, because he knows people who very much did not.]

[florescences]

How well-adjusted of you.

[ that's not even a fraction sarcastic. ]

But it doesn't mean you don't have lingering hurts.

[kumeyuri]

Doesn't everyone? It's unfortunate, but conflict leaves no one untouched.

[florescences]

Some people thrive on conflict, but I'm glad to see how your heart is.

[kumeyuri]

There's satisfaction in fighting for a greater cause. [he'd be lying if he said that, as messed up as it is, the war wasn't the high point of his life.] But ultimately, it's to achieve peace.

[florescences]

[ samurai ass ]

Peace is a great cause. That's what most people want in life, in the end.

[kumeyuri]

[unfortunately yea]

And you?

[florescences]

What I wanted was for there to be a future.

[kumeyuri]

[blinks]

Was your home in danger, or something?

[florescences]

Uh-huh. Against the Honkai.

[ she knows he doesn't know what that is. ]

Something that manifests and threatens humanity in a variety of ways.

[kumeyuri]

[yeah he doesn't know shit]

Like...?
