but it's a risk i'll have to take. no one else has stepped up yet and in the meantime we're just getting more people that have no idea what they're doing

people are going to end up getting hurt one way or another

at least if it's here we'll have people who are trained to handle it

i don't know what we can do about what'll happen beyond that. i can't control how other people respond, all i can do is try to make things as safe as we reasonably can

[daemonized]

Then that's fair enough. As long as you're aware of the risks.

[Were you expecting a lecture? Ardyn seems to forgo it this time. He can't argue against the sensibility of it, and Dante seems to be making an effort to actually be responsible about this (despite the jokes), so there's little else he can really do about it. A lecture will get nowhere, and he's not sure he even wants to indulge himself in one.]

How many people have you told about this? Other than those you've mentioned thus far?

[darkinferno]

[He would've definitely complained if he'd gotten a lecture; he's already gotten one from Togusa over all this!]

not many

you, togusa, grell, dr. trevelyan, and the guy that works at the dojo, tatsuo

it sounds like we'll be able to get the space though so i'm gonna start talking to people about teaching pretty soon. that way once he lets me know for sure we're ready to get the ball rolling

why?

[daemonized]

Simply trying to get an idea of just how big of an operation this is going to be.

[However, he's glad to hear that there are actual adults to guide this venture of Dante's. He knows the boy's heart is in the right place. There are just too many moving parts that could go awry, and he wants to make certain that the burden of responsibility isn't just on him.]

I'd like to see it sometime, of course. If you'd have me.

[darkinferno]

well, in the end it'll hopefully be pretty big. everyone in the network would be best, but i'm not holding my breath we'll make that

and yeah, of course you can come, i wouldn't try and stop you

just don't go healing every bump or bruise people get or else you're gonna be walking like an old man monday

[daemonized]

Now, what makes you think I'm inclined to be a walking band-aid for those who suffer a few minor scuffs and bruises?

[Keyword: minor.]

[darkinferno]

well the fact that i know you is a start

[After all, how many times has he sat down and listened to Dante's own whining? Ardyn's a bleeding heart.]

[daemonized]

[He totally is, even if it isn't immediately apparent to those who don't know him well.]

Please, don't paint me like some fussing, mother hen. I'll only observe. There will be proper doctors there, after all.

[Maybe. Maybe he'll only observe.]

[darkinferno]

i don't need to, you do that well enough yourself

[HE HAS ABSOLUTELY NO FAITH IN ARDYN'S ABILITY TO SIT AND OBSERVE AND DO NOTHING.]

[daemonized]

[HE WILL DO HIS ABSOLUTE BEST TO SIT AND OBSERVE AND DO NOTHING.]

I take offense to that. That isn't at all the impression I give.

[darkinferno]

what are your feathers getting ruffled up

[It sure has been lately, Ardyn, between you and Togusa! Don't fight it...]

[daemonized]

Nothing of the sort. I simply don't wish for others to get the /wrong/ impression of me.

[n e v e r]

[darkinferno]

this is a private conversation

[Until he screenshots it and uploads it to the network (he probably won't do that).]

who's getting the wrong impression of you?

[daemonized]

[Probably???]

Just the general populace as a whole. If you go around and start saying things like your professor is a sentimental man, they'll all get the wrong idea.

Everyone thinks me flippant and eccentric, you know. Theatrical, even. I'd hate to disappoint them.

[darkinferno]

[Probably he might send it to Prompto]

you're that too

you're obnoxious and flippant and overdramatic and you care about other people too much for your own good

face it prof you're a bleeding heart

[daemonized]

I plead the fifth.

[darkinferno]

busted

[But even though he's laughing at Ardyn on his end, it's strangely freeing.

It's kind of nice.]

[YOU GET ZERO RESPONSE >:[ ]
