What do people do for their twenty-first birthday besides drink alcohol? We just had a large party, so I don't feel that throwing one for my birthday in - two and a half weeks is needed. But I do like to celebrate my birthdays. Decisions, decisions.

It's hard to believe that I was seventeen when I joined. Time really does fly.

Probably best. Alcohol poisoning isn't a joke, I've run into a couple of cases where young people have died.

[unknownrival]

Trust me, I drink more responsibly than that.

[glimmerous_fop]

I imagine that you would...Issei...

[unknownrival]

...Is something the matter?

[glimmerous_fop]

Ah...well there is something that I've been meaning to talk to you about, but here is no good.

[unknownrival]

Under a lock?

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

Ah, that should do it.

Listen, several days ago I brushed you off without telling you what was wrong.

You remember?

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

Yes, I remember that.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

Yeah, I have to apologize, I had some...misdirected anger. You mentioned that we had sex to Greed and I had to sort myself out over that before talking to you.

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

It kind of slipped out. I should probably apologize.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

Well, in truth I knew there would be grief about it, and believe me when I say that it still aches, but it's not your fault.

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

I don't understand what bothers him about it so much.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

I don't know, he's protective of you too which is odd because he was hell bent on putting me on a sex schedule with you. It's a conversation that has my mind boggled.

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

He has no good reason to be protective of me considering I don't even like him. Honestly, I've given up on understanding his motivations...

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

Hm...I don't know, but he would probably break me in half before he'd ever get upset with you. Which is odd, because sometimes I think I like him too much. I can't understand him.

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

Maybe I'm just more fragile?

I don't get it.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

You're a flower, Issei.

Hm...neither do I and I thought I knew him so well, I imagine it's my ego talking.

Still, I had to make things right with you.

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

I'm not mad. Don't worry about it.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

I'm glad, you're not disturbed either, are you?

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

Why do you think I spat it out in the first place? You and I have had sex with the same person, I might have gotten Greed cooties.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

You find me unclean?

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

...good point, you probably purged all the cooties.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

I can't say I'm anywhere near being innocent, but if you had regrets I wouldn't know what to do about that.

[Lock]

[unknownrival]

I don't think I do.

[Lock]

[glimmerous_fop]

That's not a defninite, but it's better than saying you do have regrets. It doesn't change anything I'm still fond of you...and I'll continue to tease you within reason.
