Then how will I know if I'm not using it for some "asinine reason that won't irritate you"? You'll have to say something.

By utilizing them in a way that won't come back and be associated with me later.

I would think this obvious.

You almost sound like you're ashamed.

Over liquid sugar of all things.

The only shame I'd feel is using it at all when you have perfectly good sweeteners that aren't processed that way.

[ See? She can be not naughty!! ]

[ ...now listen here you little shit. ]

I am not ashamed.

It was a bulk purchase.

I needed it before, I don't now.

And you can kindly keep your opinions about my business to yourself.

[ What's that? You wanted more shite? ]

There, there. I'd still accept you even with your taste.

Someone has to love the unhealthy, after all.

[ She's also beginning to get an idea of who she's talking to which is making this even funnier to her. ]

But I suppose this place does bring out the indulgent side, doesn't it?

None of those things you just claimed are even remotely true.

If your only purpose here is to be as annoying as possible, then take your leave.

[ Can she FEEL the fuming. ]

[ Yum, crispy old man. ]

Oh perish the thought, I'm just researching.
Suppose an extra dose of sugar doesn't make your jumps fly higher, does it?

[ No username, annoyance, a very odd situation just like when he wouldn't explain when he was asking her for work way back when? Yeah, she's sure now. ]

I'm glad you could find out, it spares the rest of us.
Please tell me you've been eating normally beyond that though.

You.

Who are you.

[ Because if that particular formatting is implying that she knows about his profession and thusly him, then it is possible that this whole affair can come back around to him.

And that she is finding amusement at his expense.

Which is unacceptable. ]

Not someone you remember.

[ What, it's true. ]

But I suppose that's why you need some sweet stimulation.
Maybe a dose of actual sugar might help.

But you remember me. I demand to know how.

Enough about the blasted sugar. Tell me who you are.

[ She doubts he'd remember them meeting while setting off wish lanterns... well, it doesn't matter, She just turns on her video instead. Though the miqo'te there looks barely different than the one he met, there's a definite difference in how she carries herself. ]

Calm your thrusts, already. There, happy?

[ And she'll lean back so he gets a good look, and she gives him a flick of her ears. ]

I don't remember you being this demanding.

[ A long pause, before:

There he is, coming up on the video feed as well. ] You could have just said your name.

It's been quite some time since we spoke, Megumi.

[ And yet, she gave him a gift for Starlight. ]

What, and miss you reacting exactly as you did? Not a chance.

[ She looks amused, her ears flicking. ]

But it has been. Heard you've been busy with two beauties.

[ Someone's been talking. ]

So it doesn't feel like I've been out of touch at all.

[ He makes a pinched face at her. She was finding amusement at his expense, just as he th--

...

He blinks. ]

What?

[ He wears the face of an ignoramus. ]

Congratulations on your relationships? Come now, you didn't think it'd stay hidden for long, did you?

[ She's so proud of him. ]

I...

[ She's got him. For the first time, Megumi's got him. He looks completely gobsmacked. Not because it's not true but because not a once has he equated his associations with either of them as a relationship.

He's just boggling at her. ]

[ This is why she's the coolest Radiant Matriarch ever!

She just settles back, ears flicking as she smiles— perhaps a bit more kindly, though. This time it's not teasing. ]

Oi, oi. Don't go breaking hearts now. Though, you look far better than I remember, you know.

[ And now she teases— ]

Suppose those two brought some well needed sweetness to your life, didn't they? No wonder you're getting rid of the unnecessary ones!

[ Now he just...

He just rubs the bridge of his nose. He has no idea how Megumi came to know, but then, he is not strictly keeping secrets, is he? Hiding such a thing would imply shame and he is not ashamed.

But if Megumi squints, and spies the pink on the tips of his ears, she'll know what he is instead of ashamed. ]

The sugar was for me.

As a pixie it was all I could consume. Now that I am returned to normal there is no other need for it.

[ She can't help but chuckle— ah Estinien, even a man like him can be cute about this. And she's definitely looking at his ears even through the device. ]

At least you had people to help.

[ When she saw others with their own, she'd waited out the effects instead. ]

I do mean it, though. I am happy for you. In a place like this, it's important to form connections than not. Did you like the present? Hope you've been teaching it cute things!

It bit me.

[ Notice him cherry-picking what to respond to on account of not sure how to respond, period, to being told that someone is happy for him. Other than frown, at least. ]

The fragrances were pleasant.

[ And the charm is hanging in the window of his bedroom, so that he can imaging chucking a Moogle out and the many stories down to ground level whenever he is stressed. ]

You do tend to have a bit of a bite to your attitude at times, so I'm not surprised.

[ She grins with a wiggle of her ears— ]

I handmade the charms, you know. Cehd'ra and Dakki got them too. Maybe you can put them all together. They'll always smell good if you cuddle them!

The charms, but probably those two too.

[ His frown deepens.

What does he do with this. What does he do with all this cheerfulness and goodwill, other than cross his arms and frown more? ]

I'm not one for charms, most of the time.

[ But he doesn't deny anything about Cehd'ra and Dakki.

He is not ashamed.

...

But his ears are pinker. ]

[ She notices. It's hard not to, and she can't wait to go pinch Dakki's ear for not believing her initially when she told her she had nothing to worry over. ]

Charms are for good luck. And you need them! Especially when you have two special someones waiting for you. My girls would always give each other charms on season's change.

[ She sighs and smiles. ]

Anyroad, I've not seen you for far longer than you have me. Been almost two turns, you know. The last time we spoke, I was still wed and had just one kit. We're long overdue for our spar!

[ Oh Praise Halone, they can talk about Megumi instead of himself. ]

So you are now unwed and possessed of more kits?

[ He asks, tactlessly. ]

A spar is no issue. I can do so any time.

Aye!

[ Look who's being nonchalant about what hurt her! ]

Triplets! Now I've got three sons and a daughter, and I'm very confused! I should have had more daughters!

[ She is a miqo'te! At least she doesn't follow standard naming conventions. ]

I'm sure you've gotten far better at working your lance since we last spoke, too. Now that you have two very eager partners-

[ DID YOU THINK IT WAS THAT EASY ]
