... You can help them with their corn, if you want. Not that I think they'll be able to get through all of it.

[ pasta may be ready soon with lobster ]

[subordinacy]

... How much corn do they have...?

[squirt]

[ literally 100+ pounds of it ]

[obdure]

... Maybe they're meant for us to offer the horses.

[subordinacy]

... I couldn't tell you, to be frank.

[100+ POUNDS OF CORN?]

[obdure]

Why can't you be more in tune with the horses, Sekreuz? It could make all of this easier?

[subordinacy]

[stares at him like he's trying to figure out if jacopo is being sarcastic or sincere.]

[obdure]

[ think about it very hard ]

[subordinacy]

[he's pretty sure it was sarcasm but now that he didn't reply immediately it's awkward.]

[obdure]

[ HELp.... SAY SOMETHING ]

[subordinacy]

[OKAY after a pause, dryly,]

I'll look into it, since you told us to abandon our previous research topic.

[obdure]

... I think we may still do the booth, but I don't want either you or Susato looking into it.

[ life is so hard setz ]

I wasn't too serious about what I said. Though now if we're taking it seriously, any information can help at this point. Just be careful.

[subordinacy]

[REST ASSURED SETZ ALSO DOESN'T WANT TO LOOK INTO EROTICA.]

I wasn't being entirely serious either, although we are trying... Well, not with learning how to be in tune with horses specifically. [a beat] You don't need to worry about me.

[obdure]

All right, but I wouldn't let you live if you got stomped by one.

[subordinacy]

Why is that— [OKAY.] Well, not only is that not going to happen, but now I wouldn't let you live if that happened to you.

[obdure]

All right, but you can fight and apparently you have abilities? I'm just an ordinary person who knows basic self-defense and not much more.

[subordinacy]

Consider learning more. Also, I am going to throw this corn at you.

[he is not but that's the sentiment.]

[obdure]

What?

[ HOW IS HE MEANT TO PREPARE FOR CORN? ]

[subordinacy]

[doesn't do this but seems satisfied at jacopo's reaction.]

[obdure]

It's rude to throw things at people.

[ so you know AS IF YOU DIDN'T ]

[subordinacy]

I'll make a note of that alongside swearing in front of you.

[obdure]

As you should.

[ Here is pasta made specifically for you. ]

[subordinacy]

[stands here thinking about how in reap someone punched him and reap jacopo was mad about this for some reason and even though setz told him to mind his own business because that was HIS toxic mental-health-ruining friendship thank you, jacopo then went off and got into a fistfight with the guy in public and yet THIS jacopo is telling HIM to not throw things at people because it'd be rude? the audacity.

anyway, he stares blankly at the pasta like somehow he didn't expect food for him outside of the corn jacopo already gave him. awkwardly takes it.]

... Thank you.

[obdure]

[ Unfortunately, Setz, it is rude to throw things at people... And if you got punched he would also get mad........ You have to fight back? Do something about it? If you don't, he might instead? These two reactions can exist in the same person.

The pasta is a bit simpler than what he had added just after for the rest of them. ]

You're welcome. [ ... ] You really have to loosen up some more.

[subordinacy]

[he does look a bit grateful at the simpler pasta since he's making assumptions about why it's that way.

to the remark, though:]

Huh?
