Ah, it's finally happened. The end of my youthful appearance.

Grey hairs.

Suppose I should have seen this coming.

[observershikou]

Er. Sorry that your life is a typhoon, apparently.

[becomeanwarrior]

It's... I won't say 'it's fine', but it's not like this is your fault.

[observershikou]

I don't really do enough to take off the edge, however.

Though I can't really do much in terms of Shiroko's situation, since it. Sorta happened on the vacation you're on.

[becomeanwarrior]

Like I said, not your fault.

If you can help me calm her down when we get home, that'll be appreciated. I've been hiding out at the buffet for like, the past day now. I think the kitchen staff are starting to catch on. May have to move to the bar.

[observershikou]

I'll try, at least, but I do want to avoid having to force her to calm down.

[becomeanwarrior]

I would also like to avoid that, if at all possible, so, y'know. That's fine.

I just don't want to be locked out of my home until the kid is eventually born. Because that seems like the kind of thing that'll happen.

[observershikou]

I understand that.

... You feel like you need another vacation, though?

[theheadmonarch]

Tell me about it. I've started looking up how to make Long Island Ice Teas and White Wine Spritzers.

[becomeanwarrior]

I'm going to need a vacation from my vacation, at this rate.

[theheadmonarch]

I can arrange that if you want.

[becomeanwarrior]

...

I just realized how Faustian this would look if I didn't trust you and now I'm debating it.

Not that I don't trust you, that is.

[theheadmonarch]

I'm hardly satanic.

[becomeanwarrior]

True enough. And I guess it's better the devil you know than the devil you don't, as it were?

[autumnswarm]

[becomeanwarrior]

...Sup, Sulli.

Heard there was a bit of trouble while I've been gone?

[autumnswarm]

Oh, we're getting straight down to business~? I had hoped to laugh a bit about grey hairs and tackle this in person.

[becomeanwarrior]

Oh, well- haha, good point. I mean, you kind of make the whole white hair thing work, if I'm bein' honest. Not sure I'd do well with "old and silver" on top of my mophead.

[autumnswarm]

Mmm~ I think it'd be a real good look for you. Distinguished and all of that~ Just gotta start working on a grizzled beard, like Kazzy.

[becomeanwarrior]

Oh, gods no. I couldn't grow facial hair to save my life. Believe me, I've tried.

And he's Kazzy now, huh?

[ogrewarrior]

A few things:
1. You DOG. Congrats on what ya think I'm congratulating ya on. Less so the fallout.
2. Alcohol and cigarettes keep your appearance youthful, fact. Look at me.
3. It's all smoothed out, without ya.
4. My mom's around, she's probably extremely dangerous and I challenged her to a game of tag. Sorry for the property damage in advance.

[becomeanwarrior]

1. Thanks, I think it'll work itself out, given enough time. Just... hoping so, at least, for the kid's sake.
2. I think the bar on the ship is starting to learn my name. Also, didn't you have to ask Noriko to de-age you that one time?
3. Sounds like it, at least! Good work, guys. I'll probably ask for a more detailed breakdown when I get home.
4. ...Your mom? Wow. Also uh. Good to know. I assume Niyo knows, too. If not, tell Niyo.

[ogrewarrior]

Well, she did, but I still didn't have grey on me. And, don't worry about it over here, boss. Ya got your own shit on that ship to work out. But say the word and I'll steal a sea-plane and get ya back here earlier than ya had intended.

...Eh, whatever. Gonna assess how bad she might be!

[becomeanwarrior]

That's true, I suppose. I'm glad things are working out over there with you and Sullivan. Gotta admit I was a little worried.

Hey, as long as you don't destroy half the city I think we can work it out. You can introduce me when I come home.

[ogrewarrior]

He's pretty solid, yeah. Let my leash on him slip for a second, but I can't blame his rationale, unfortunately. I've set him on paperwork and... uh. Nah, it can wait until ya get back.

I'm sitting in some places slated for demolition anyway.

[becomeanwarrior]

You'll have to gimme the details when I get home, but it sounds like something that I wouldn't necessarily be too angry about if it was one of those "it makes sense if it's regrettable" things.

That's why you're on the heavy ordinance team, Kaz.
