he's just so ????? about this lmao

[fistofthejoestar]

[while Jonathan doesn't jump or even flinch, his eyebrows certainly do raise at the sudden outburst. it seems that he's accidentally pressed on a(n odd) nerve, but to be perfectly honest he's still not really sure he sees where the issue is...]

For the novelty, I imagine. It's the same reason they're made to begin with.

[amadaman]

But they have faces! They're really really cute and--

These ones have our faces on them too?? Being eaten isn't fun! [he speaks, from experience

[fistofthejoestar]

[ironically, Jonathan has experience with that too. it's even less fun when it's kind of erotic and coming from your adopted brother, he'll tell you that for free.]

I suppose that most people simply see them as food, rather than something with feelings. Or they may not want to insult whoever put time and effort into making them by taking a pass.

[this is...aggressively adorable as it continues unfolding. oh no.]

[amadaman]

[what the heck even is JoJo]

[Ken starts to grasp and fiddle with his skirt nervously in his tiny distress, expression changing like the faces of a rolling doce]

Well, I wouldn't to! I'd eat it if someone cooked for me, but-- I don't know! It's like...

It's like biting into a stuffed animal, [he hisses that like he's whispering about a son that shouldn't even be names]

[fistofthejoestar]

[a truly bizarre adventure, that's what.

good lord gentleman Jesus help him, though, but Jonathan is finding it harder and harder to keep his laughter restrained. it's a stroke of fortune that Ken is busy twisting his skirt into oblivion - he won't be able to see the way his friend's shoulders shake like somebody set them to max vibrate.]

I don't think you have to worry much about it, Ken. No one should begrudge you that sort of compassion.

[please don't ever grow out of that, Ken. it's adorable.]

[amadaman]

[Ken is fortunately unaware, busy wringing out and adding some horrible wrinkles to the fabric of his skirt as he lets out that frustration over poor abused foods with faces. Once his face puffs out it takes forever to deflate again. It's still puffed out like a balloon as he looks back at him.]

I just think it's inhumane.

[fistofthejoestar]

[Jonathan's gentlemanly nature has thankfully regained complete control by then; his father would be very proud to see how Ken's sulky pufferfish impression doesn't even cause a minute twitch of his lips.]

Well, it doesn't seem to be particularly common here outside of children's fare, so at least you have that.

[he...guesses....]

[amadaman]

This one's no children's fair!

[If Ken had a table right now, he'd be slapping it. Objection, objection!]

They just... they just think kids will like anything if it looks cute!

[Please stop him because he's starting to veer off into a tangent]

[fistofthejoestar]

[thankfully Jonathan actually has the perfect topic to completely derail this - and it's not even a lie, which makes his conscience feel immensely relieved after all the laughter he's had to stifle.]

Ah, you know, that reminds me...those little blind boxes of you and your friends seem to be quite popular today.

[he can't call them tsums because he doesn't know what the fuck a tsum is. alas.]

[amadaman]

Huh--??

[The screeching of Ken's accelerating thoughts coming to a halt is almost audible between them, even over the din of the convention around them. Ken blinks, confused, almost like he was just splashed with water, and it takes a second for his brain to catch up with what Jonathan is saying. Oh.]

Oh! Um... yeah. I saw those. They're pretty well made.

[fistofthejoestar]

[SUCCESS. Jonathan's happy to have gotten Ken off that roller coaster of a topic, for both of their sakes. that relief is likely what's contributing to his smile hitting new levels of sunniness.]

Yes, they've very sweet. I bought a couple alongside a friend earlier; apparently I was rather lucky to draw you and Koromaru.

[although to be perfectly honest Jonathan would've considered that a stroke of good fortune regardless of rarity odds. Ken and Junpei are the only two members of SEES that he knows.]

[amadaman]

Ah, really?? You got Koro's one too?

[It also means that it's a Ken one, but Ken doesn't care about that. It's a tiny Koromaru!! Ken may have tried to collect all of them.]

He's really cute, right? Especially when he's real, but that small one's really cute too.

[fistofthejoestar]

[HE DOESN'T BLAME YOU AT ALL KEN tiny doge will always take priority]

He's absolutely precious. [and not leaving Jonathan's pocket until he gets home, sorry fans] I think it has something to do with making something already sweet even smaller - I can't say I understand it, but it's certainly effective.

[amadaman]

I think you're right. I got one of my friends... and I wasn't really sure how to feel about thinking he was cute.

[sry junpei]

[fistofthejoestar]

[oh come on Ken, what's a little homoerotic complimenting between friends.]

Better than thinking he was hideous, I'd imagine.

[amadaman]

I would never..! But it's just-- I dunno.

He's not Koro.

[fistofthejoestar]

I think that's a rather unfair expectation to set upon anyone, don't you?

[amadaman]

...

... Dipper's pretty cute.

[fistofthejoestar]

As cute as your dog? [he chuckles] You'll want to be careful, or he may let that go to his head.

[amadaman]

Well, he could use a little more self confidence anyway, and I know how to keep him in line.

[fistofthejoestar]

Then I hope he doesn't surprise you too much when that jump in confidence hits.
