key_illusion | [Asgard] IC Contact ♛ (OLD)

...No, maybe not. Considering how Jade seems to have the ability to make everyone her friend, no. [Which is why he sighs, scowl twitching into a dry smile as he shoves his hands into his pockets.]

Well she suckered us in, didn't she? ["And then some, it seems. Why is that anyway? What the hell is it about Jade Harley that practically everyone likes her? Not that I envy that...maybe a little. Whatever."] Riku seemed to find it surprising as well, as did...well, most of her friends, actually. [And if Draco knew that ??? was granted the gift of telepathy he'd be a lot more careful about keeping his thoughts to himself.]

[???'s not going to give a sign that he can since he's finding Draco's internal thoughts entertaining.]

It's the probably the positive attitude that's not supposed to be optimism. She's also stubborn. [He gives a shrug.] As for you, you don't exactly give the nice-guy vibes at first. And comparing you to Roxy...Big difference.

[R U D E, ???. Draco would think it's rude too if he had absolutely any idea. As it is, he kind of just laughs. "Yeah, that about sums it up."]

She hates being called optimistic, too. But come off it, it's exactly that. [A shruuug.] "At first"? I like to think I keep the nice-guy vibes down to a completely dull roar. Absolutely no nice bones in my body, that sort of thing. ["Roxy and I are completely different...besides the obvious. ...though I wonder if I'd be prettier than her if I were a girl. Why did that even cross my mind?"] I also like to think I'm a little more fascinating than Roxy, fascinating though she may be. ["And besides, I don't think Roxy needed Jade to keep her alive here."] I didn't know you knew Roxy as well.

[Oh Draco, he's trying so hard not to laugh at that girl comment, which is why he seems to clench his jaw for a moment.]

Riiiight, no nice bones whatsoever. [A shake of his head:] I don't actually. Never talked to her.

[But his original made out with her once.]

Absolutely none. Jade's a complete idiot for putting up with me. [He raises an eyebrow.] She's not bad. A little overbearing and cheater of video games, but not bad. [If he ever knew that Roxas made out with Roxy he'd piss himself laugh, not gonna lie. However he doesn't and therefore will never suspect a thing.]

[Good thing he doesn't like to talk about who Roxas has kissed-- especially when it comes to mentioning Nakama. Ugh.]

Considering who she "dates", I'll say her judgement is a bit off. [So they're not going to debate Draco's level of nice-ness since they both hang out with girls who have horrible judgement of characters: Euri and Jade.]

[And considering Euri's his business partner and likes him well enough? Yeah, probably no need to debate.]

...she told you about Riku then?

Edited 2013-02-18 06:43 (UTC)

More like I read about her asking him out, asked her, then she told me. [Driest smile here. He's not a fan of Riku for what he did to Roxas.] I also know about Davesprite and Sollux too.

["And that face basically tells me that he also agrees they can all fuck right off. Good. Suddenly Sunny has a bit more of my respect."] She worries about it too much. I understand wanting to be normal, but I'm not sure that's the way to go. ["Besides, relationships aren't worth it. One person always ends up getting hurt anyway, so what the hell's the point?"] Granted, Riku's a better choice than Sollux so I'll give her that much credit.

[There are so many points that he agrees on with Draco, both internally and from what he said, that it's almost scary. He's also picking up that Jade and him have definitely not had good romantic relationships in the past...and he can guess that that's something they probably talk about a bit too. Not that he knows anything about romantic love, and he's not sure what Roxas thinks either considering his ex.]

Yeah, it seemed that way too. I don't exactly agree that being "normal" includes dating so much either. [And her expectations of dating, ugh. That's a whole different perspective he's not sure he can mash with all the other knowledge he's picked up.] ...She can do better than Riku though.

[And he will stick to that statement even if he won't back it up with other "better" people. It'd also be giving too much background knowledge he's supposed to keep to himself.]

[That is probably the understatement of the century, but then again they were both just not-relationships that the two of them are currently still working through. Jade's blowup with Sollux and Draco's own blowup with Rapunzel. He's still incredibly bitter because of everything that's happened to both of them.]

Normal's not really going to save you in this place, so I'm not sure why people try. ["Then again I'm right there with them. I'd like to be normal, and maybe that's why I'm so attached to her. She's not wrong, she's just going about it the wrong way..."] She can most certainly do better than Riku. ["And she can do better than me despite what she says."] Heh. Maybe that should be a new project for one of us. I feel like your judgment could at least be on par with mine. Besides, I like to keep busy...what's one more project on top of the six I have?

[Is ??? sensing some self-loathing here, Draco?]

Finding someone for Jade to date? That might be more your thing than mine. I can make a judgement of people [more like read their internal thoughts and go snooping for info] but anything about romance or dating doesn't exactly...click with me.

[He is also, typically, the most antisocial person ever.]

[A very large amount of self-loathing, indeed. He just laughs though, not entirely amused but mostly finding the idea to be ridiculous. "Really? I'm the least romantic person on the planet. I didn't even have to do anything in my last relationship."] I would ask Roxy, but she sort of isn't exactly someone I want to trust in this department. Then again, I don't think I'd trust Jade's own judgment at this point. ["Considering she seems to think she's happier with me than anyone else? I'm not the best of anyone she could ask for, and I wish she'd stop thinking so."]

...wait, so what makes you such a good judge of character?

Observing people is part of my job back in my world. [Was, sort of. His database of memories he's managed to leech is still growing, apparently.

??? definitely wouldn't suggest Draco to date Jade either, even if it sounds like Jade really prefer to be around him. Despite that, he's also not buying the 'no nice bones' even more.]

So what, to fulfill your purpose you have to go around spying on everyone and observing them? ["Sounds familiar enough."]

Sort of. It's complicated. [Which is why he's looking a bit on the disgruntled side.

Helping to fabricate illusions is hard, man.]

["Isn't everything?"] Isn't everything?

...Yes. [Which is just an answer for Draco to move away from the subject, hopefully.]

On the other hand? At least Asgard's simple enough for even the biggest idiots to figure out.

[This, he can get on.] There's definitely a number of them, huh? Even if they do live their own complicated lives.

Do you know how many times a day I have to turn off my bracelet because I'm getting tired of hearing the same ridiculous questions and notions every day? It's almost depressing.

Like how can you tell if someone's gone home? Yeah, those are kind of annoying especially since they can probably ask one person to get the answer. [And yet he still helps sometimes.]

Anyways, what projects are you working on besides potions?

And yet they won't. They assume that we're all here to hand them the answer on a silver platter. ["Clearly that rule only applies to me."]

Potions are actually a large part of my projects but intergalatic travel, maybe a few others. I'm really focusing more on traveling to the different worlds in the different universes. ["Wow that sounds a lot stupider when said aloud.."]

[??? knows how much you love information, Draco. Almost as much as he does.]

Ah...Figured about the potions. I don't know about traveling between universes, but there's a way to travel between worlds easily, but it's a tricky ability. Not many people have it. [Or else traveling between worlds wouldn't have to be a secret.]
