[Ginko starts to say something, then scowls down at his own stone again.]

...Yeah, that's what he says too.

[Suspicious. He doesn't doubt that it's true, seeing as how Epsilon straight-up can't lie, but suspicious.]

[vagabone]

Hey! Hey. Heeey. Don't. Don't make faces. [He doesn't exactly have a metabolism. Of course he's still drunk.]

I would only ever say nice things!

[onegreeneye]

I'm not making faces.

[Not intentionally, anyway.]

See, I'm not worried that you're not being nice. I'm just worried about what that means.

[vagabone]

It means... he likes you.

[Sheesh. Don't overthink it, buddy.]

[onegreeneye]

[You know he overthinks things like it's his job, Hector. Which it kind of is.

Theoretically, it should go without saying that Epsilon, who has literally chosen to enter a romantic relationship with Ginko, probably likes him. But then Hector did go and say it, and that's very different from it just being something he can assume is probably true.

Anyway, the point is: Ginko fumbles to try and say something for a moment, but all he really manages is something that sounds kind of like "uh-- well. mm".

Give him a moment.]

[vagabone]

[It's fine. He'll wait, grinning in his ridiculous way, missing tooth and all. Isn't he such a good friend?]

[onegreeneye]

[He can't believe you would do this to him, Hector. At least it doesn't take Ginko too long to find his voice again.]

Look, the point is-- just because you two consider what you're saying "nice" doesn't mean I want it being said.

[vagabone]

[Hmmmmmm!]

What exactly do you not want said?

[onegreeneye]

I don't know specifically. Not like I've got a list of stuff I don't want you saying - and, if I did, I don't know that I'd tell you.

[So there!!]

[vagabone]

But if you don't tell me I might say it by accident! Because I don't know what you don't want said.

You should tell me.

[onegreeneye]

I don't believe you.

[In case THAT wasn't clear.]

If you're so worried about it, you should stop talking about me.
