Gu..reen.

Gureen.

[His lips move, trying not to get tongue tied with that, and recognizing 'e' in 'green' on the box from when he read 'tea'.]

G-R-E-E-N.

[earnedmystripes]

There you go! Are you ready for the last part? It's a little bit harder, 'cause it's like two words squished together, alright?

[He pronounces lemongrass slower than he did "green", accentuating the break where the two words are stitched together.]

The first half is L-E-M-O-N, and the second is G-R-A-S-S.

[rassera]

L-E-M-O-N...Lemon.

[That was easy enough...the E had a weird pronunciation...but it wasn't something he was going to ask on now. L-E-M-O-N. He'd remember that. He'd try to.]

G-R-A-S-S. The A is in TEA....


[Look at him, starting to associate letters...]

[earnedmystripes]

Right!

[r u ready for this, dadtetsu gonna headpat. Hope you don't mind your hair being ruffled, Kaneda. uvu]

[rassera]

Ah!!

[His one free hand reaches up to bat that hand away--not overly aggressively, but like a playful cat.]

Hey! You're messing up my hair!

[It was already messy, idiot.]

[earnedmystripes]

[Which of course leads him to try to dodge those hands to ruffle more, like the loserdad he is.]

Oi, oi, messy's cool, okay? Like all those guys in the action movies, their hair's always all messed up.

[rassera]

Not when old guys do it for them!

[He swats that hand away playfully, tossing his hair as if to 'mess it up right'.]

You gotta let it go naturally!

[earnedmystripes]

No, no, that's just what they want you to think.

[He doesn't reach for Kaneda's head a third time, though.]

I bet Hollywood has like, actually stylists for that kind of thing, even.

[rassera]

But then it's not even messy! They tried to make it that way!


[This is important, Kotetsu! Nothing beats genuinely messy hair!

It's like easy mac vs. the box!]

[earnedmystripes]

But it still looks like it is. S'like, when you know there's really stunt people doing all the cool stuff that woulda messed up their hair, but when you're seeing it, it's still badass like it was really them doing it.

[What is this argument.]

[rassera]

...




Is that what they do with you.

[earnedmystripes]

[Oops, someone's getting a mildly deer-in-headlights look for a second here.]

E-eh?? Me?

[rassera]

[Without missing a beat:]

Yeah, can you even DO stunts, old man?


Won't your back get thrown out?

[earnedmystripes]

Rude, I can totally do stunts! And I'm not that old, either!

[rassera]

Yeah?

[He lives up one of Kotetsu's arms, feeling it's weight]

Iiiii dunno. Never seen you in action.

how tall/heavy is kaneda...

[earnedmystripes]

[He peers at Kaneda, appraisingly.]

I could probably lift you...maybe...

5'8''/...lean but muscular teen weight

[rassera]

...


Yeah, and throw out your back.

HMMMM i think he could do it if ur up for the shenanigans

[earnedmystripes]

Oi! I'll have you know I've lifted a fallen tree by myself, before!!

1/2 TOTALLY UP FOR IT

[rassera]

...


[Are you shitting with him, old man. Are you seriously trying to say you can lift a fallen tree just like you are.

He can probably buy super strength but...usually you. Looked the part.


Like the Iron Bull. Or were a kickass woman like Power Girl.]

2/2

[rassera]

AHAHAHAHA!!!!

Yeah, okay!!!

[earnedmystripes]

[LOOK not all of us wander around shirtless 24/7 ok!!! He puffs out a cheek like the huge child he is.]

You wanna bet on that, kid?!

[k o t e t s u no.]

[rassera]

...


[You can see his eyes light up at 'bet'.]

Alright, what's the bet.

[As he puts that green tea under his arm and starts to meander out of the aisle.]

sdfkajfg life ate me im sorry!!!

[earnedmystripes]

Weeeell--

[He points at the tea.]

If you win, I'll pay for that.

And if I win...

[drumrolls r u ready 4 this]

...You gotta come down to Heropa and hang out with me, for like, a whole day.

Re: sdfkajfg life ate me im sorry!!!

[rassera]

...



[The way his face drops, it's like Kotetsu put him inbetween two things he wants to keep more than anything--his pride, and his free time.]


S-Seriously?

[earnedmystripes]

[8|a...not the reaction he expected tbh but...]

Yeah! So, you in, or what??
