I'm bored of it.

[Restless girl. She can't do anything sitting around with a bunch of dusty dime novels.]

[penduli]

And what are you going to do when you get bored of being representative?

[barredheart]

Step down and go back to being a shepherd.

[penduli]

You can't just do that.

[barredheart]

I know. I'm just joking. [About something she shouldn't joke about, she knooows.] I won't be bored of it. Politics aren't really my thing, but I'll be able to go to different places and meet different people and decide stuff. It sounds like there's always going to be something happening. Especially with Shaarnath and the dunamis still being hot topics.

[penduli]

[ Why is his sister like this... ]

How often did you see the representatives getting involved with stuff before? Sure, a lot of it could have been behind-the-scenes, but Princess Celestia owns her own store and had time to fight in that tournament outside of her duties as representative. I'm pretty sure you won't be doing as much as you think you're going to be doing.

[barredheart]

[She was trapped in a hospital for three years.]

You're such a downer. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it, okay? And I'll have you to back me up if something goes wrong.

[penduli]

[ FOR HER OWN GOOD. ]

Right. [ .... ] I can't believe you're basically just going to Elle Woods this.

[barredheart]

[SHE'S FINE NOW, BLACK!!! THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH HER ANYMORE!!]

Anything's possible if you put your mind to it. You should think about doing something too, Black, put those skills you learned from The League to work. It doesn't have to be anything grand like what I'm going for, but this?

[White pats his book.]

This has to stop. Live a little. Try something new. We only get one life, you know, it's bad to just waste it playing safe.

[Not that either of them do that in the least bit, but you know.]

[penduli]

[ HAHA..... HA.................. ]

Mmm. [ That's the most noncommittal answer he's ever given her.



you're gonna have to force this one, white. ]

1/2

[barredheart]

[Obviously.]

Mmm. Sounds like you...

[barredheart]

... could use a blind date!

[penduli]

[ ------- hOLD ON WAIT ]

Wh--what?

[barredheart]

When was the last time you had any fun, Black? Felt your heart pound with the thrill of something new? Yes, I've got just what you need, my dear big brother of mine!

[She just needs to to figure out how to word his everything nicely.]

A blind date'll be good for you. Unless you have something else in mind, but chances are I'm going to set you up anyway.

[penduli]

No.

[barredheart]

Your issue being?

[penduli]

I... er... [ ...................





uh. ] I don't have time for dates?
















[ yeah. ]

[barredheart]

[Uh huh.

Uhhhh huh.

She's just gonna let that sit.]

[penduli]

[ .............. ]

I'm not interested in dating.

[barredheart]

Are you really not? Or did that narcissus take too much of your heart away? You're allowed to do that here too, you know, if you gave me the go ahead to do... whatever it is I want.

[penduli]

Whiiiiiiite, it isn't like that at all. [ REALLY... Tsukiyama-san is very good-looking but your brother does not get struck by Cupid's arrow at first sight.

probably. ] I'm just... not interested it in. I don't even know what I'd do on a date, or why anyone would want to date me.

[barredheart]

You're my brother, why wouldn't they want give it a shot?

[penduli]

Because I'm your brother.

[barredheart]

[She is taking that as an insult and pinching his cheek.]

And what's wrong with being my brother, huh? I've gotten plenty of dates! You're just not trying!

[penduli]

[ OWWwww whiiiite ]

Why would anyone want to go out with me after seeing you? [ ...is what he means, okay?

(The King of Despair snorts loudly. Who'd want to date either of them? Who cares about dating.) ]
