And anyway, I'm thinking... It can't hurt to take the opportunity to get to know some of these guys a little better, right? Especially by themselves, I mean, they're usually attached at the hip.
[You're one to talk, Dearka.]
Point being, we ARE all basically on the same apocalypse stopping team, at the end of the day. Maybe let's just make some lemonade out of this.
But, I'm well aware of the importance of camaraderie between our allies. I'd just like to do that on my own terms instead of ending up in a ridiculous situation like this!
He's already acting like an excited child talking about sleepovers!
I not only know how to cook, I know how to cook very well.
[ FEEL the ego through text. ]
And I plan to! But now he's making it sound like he has to get permission.
You thought Truth or Dare would be a good idea? It'd likely go one round because he'd be prohibited to do any dares if this is already how things are going!
That's cool and all but i thought we were looking for two bedroom places? since there's? Two of us?
[Also, does that mean that Yzak and Kalim are stuck in a "and there was only one bed" situation? Because THAT is weirdly alarming for Dearka to contemplate.]
[ MAYBE THEY ARE!!! ENJOY CONTEMPLATING, LOSER!! ]
Find one that doesn't smell like there's mold in the walls that'll kill us that we can actually afford and we'll talk. Have you SEEN some of these places?! They're squalid!
At least the one bedrooms within our budget don't feel like health hazards.
[ Is it really so bad to share a room ... they've done this before with only minimal property damage and Yzak is way more mature now!! Preferring something half deteriorated just so he doesn't have to share a sleeping space with him that'd be much nicer and more comfortable ... that kind of hurts??? ]
[Dearka is, presently, completely oblivious to any hurt Yzak is feeling about this. He probably shouldn't be, though? Because he knows how sensitive Yzak can be about this stuff. AND YET!]
Sure we did, but,
I mean, c'mon, am I crazy? Think about it: there's gotta be some things you just don't want to do with another person in the room. Right?
Yzak, come on, that's not what I meant and you know it. I'm fine with sharing a room, we've done it plenty of times before. I just thought it might be nice to not live like we're on a war ship for once.
I'm not skirting my duties where finding a one bedroom is concerned, either! A couple of them that I've seen are pretty big. One had a unique shape that would be closer to your liking, but it was like a closet.
I'll find the best one out there. Assuming I make it through tonight without throttling this guy.
Unique as in an L shaped room. Would be better for privacy theoretically, but it's like I said, that one I looked at was the size of a closet - might actually be a closet they're trying to pass for a bedroom.
He actually had to text him for permission to hold a knife.
As you should. My skills there are top-notch, even if I obtained them later in life.
[ Later in life he says as if he's an old man when in reality he just means 'within the last two years'. ]
But hell, he really had to ask you that? You'd think this guy would break a bone if the wind blew too hard with how much it sounds like he's being coddled.

[ HELP HIM!!!!!! ]
no subject
I mean he is... Younger than we are...?
[But not. THAT much younger. Oof.]
Just play some truth or dare or something until he tires himself out.
no subject
He's 'not allowed' to touch even simple kitchen knives! Unless Jamil is supervising him.
no subject
I mean
I don't know if I'd trust him with a knife either???
[like. have you MET Kalim, Yzak???]
no subject
But for doing something as simple as chopping a carrot? Give me a break!

[ Wait though that means Yzak would win,,, ]

I mean Jamil's best suggestion for killing time here was to play cards, so that sounds about right to me. He's not the most exciting guy, is he?
Maybe I can swipe his syntrofos...
no subject
[ H I L A R I O U S coming from this guy. ]
Save the swiping for later. For now, the place we're staying isn't actually so bad.
The bedroom is bigger than anything we had during the war.
[ Bedroom, singular. :) ]

Besides, we both have genetically perfect immune systems?? Neither of us is gonna get taken out by a mold allergy.
no subject
Plus, do you REALLY want to be somewhere you can tell is that unclean?
It's not like we've never shared a room before.
no subject
no subject
???
We managed that just fine.
no subject
Sure we did, but,
I mean, c'mon, am I crazy? Think about it: there's gotta be some things you just don't want to do with another person in the room. Right?
no subject
[ Yzak's Natural Soul didn't like that. ]
What would be THAT important to not want to do?
no subject
Does he really have to lay this out for him,,,,,,
is it WORTH laying this out for him??????
...no.]
Nevermind
We can just do the single bedroom, it's fine
[HE'LL JUST. JERK OFF IN THE SHOWER.]
no subject
And since there is a clear, easy, less messy option to take, it wasn't that big an issue after all! Yzak just keeps winning! ]
Nothing should be that much of a dealbreaker for choosing the more sanitary option.
And hell, we can probably get some kind of room divider if sharing a space with me again is that much of a problem!
[ :( ]

It would be nice. But not at the expense of cleanliness and barely being able to afford much else.
And don't forget, we're also going to be showering and cooking in this place.

No throttling, please. I don't wanna have to break that kind of news to fussypants over here.

And yeah, that doesn't surprise me. Jamil was just asking me about your cooking skills. Gave you a ringing endorsement, naturally.
