[ How Stern ever convinced him that traveling across the water in that box to accompany him to find a "bar" (a tool of some kind, he assumes) is beyond Yllit. Admittedly things had seemed much less painstaking before he discovered their destination to be beyond the vast body of water, requiring a ride in that cage--and this time he meant it. Much of his time within in had been spent fumbling around the interior, entirely disoriented and repeatedly asking how much time was left before their arrival.

At least it had had windows. And it was past nightfall--if it hadn't been Yllit shuddered to think of how horribly he might have further embarrassed himself, though anything more than what he currently felt seemed impossible. To be so obviously overcome with ineptitude in front of Qui'sol was...well, partially mortifying. Not because of a desire to appear impervious and hardened to whatever came his way, but to at least not have been so horribly debilitated.

But he's recovering from that now, finally, after sitting on the port and soaking himself in the moonlight while trying to catch his breath. His glowing hair and eyes garner obvious attention from the sailors at the docks, but he's kind of leering up at Stern right now 8| THOROUGHLY UNIMPRESSED. ]

That was...awful.

It's stupid. [ He shrugs again. ]

...You do not believe in this philosophy?

No. Those things haven't done anything to earn my ire, so I've got no reason to hate them.

.... [ YOU GET STRANGER AND STRANGER EVERY TIME HE TALKS TO YOU ]

[ STRANGER IN A GOOD WAY? ] Some of my closet friends have been people others hate for being different.

[ ...;w; yes ]

Undeserved ill-will seems...frequently given among Qui'sol.

It's one of our many flaws.

[ ....oh damnit stern why do you have to just accept that, now he almost feels bad ]

What? [ He sees that look mister, why are you giving it to him? ): ]

...I have not observed you to be so much like other Qui'sol. You have...[aaauuughhh] ...you are unlike them. It is good.

[ Did he just?

Stern can't help but laugh, covering his face with his hands. It's so weird, hearing someone say that his strangeness is good. ]

[ sdgskdgs YES WELL NOW HE FEELS EMBARRASSED THANKS A LOT. His ears perks right up and then drop and he hastily turns to face the window instead of Stern B( aauuughhhhhhhhhhh ]

[ WOW LIT, WAY TO BE RIDICULOUSLY ADORABLE. ]

Thanks...

It was no great effort. You needn't be thankful. [ HUFFHUFF shut up sternnnnn ]

No, you don't understand. No one has... ever said something like that to me before. Ever

...Never?

Never. [ He's not counting the "oddballs" like him though. ]

I do not think I will ever comprehend how needlessly...distant Qui'sol are to one another. Are the lives of everyone not important? You are all of the same Forest. There seems no reason for animosity to me.

We're extremely selfish people--not all of us though, there are a lot who think like you do, but most of us are selfish and cruel. [ It is kind of sad how quickly he is to accept this as fact. ]

[ stern ))): Yllit looks...disappointed to hear that. Hopefully a change of subject will help ]

What manner of drink did you need to order that we must traverse to this location?

Alcohol. [ Ah, he has to remind himself that Lit probably has no idea what... that is. ]

It's a... drink, a really nice drink, that makes you feel really awesome.

Then it is for revitalization purposes?

Yeah, something like that.

I see... Then I may understand some of your reasoning behind such an excursion. [ NOPE HE REALLY DOESN'T, but hopefully he can order water ;w; ]

[ Nope, because he totally got him some delicious booze. And as if on cue, a woman comes over with their drinks. Stern grins and shoots her a pleasant smile before pushing the smaller mug of whatever the weakest drink this place is at Lit. ]

Here, for you.
