[oh my god shinpachi you're so gross--]
Or did you misread the numbers and get a suit too small for you? The world may never know.
[SASS. Except yeah, Tenka's just snorting faintly even as he continues to try to undo his bow tie.... He's just not having any of this either. buttons really do suck]

'course I would've...!!
[What a quick answer. Still though, Tenka's just snorting even as he shakes his head.]
These are really frumpy, don't you think? I get that Westerners wanna look all nice and polished and stuff, but this is just really tight and constricting, don't you think?

[So embarrassing and stupid.]
Pfffffft--
[And Tenka's proceeding to crack up.]
Bahahaha!! Yeah! Real nice...! I pay for your drinks for months now and you can't even recognize me? Thanks, man!

[Ha.... Well, Tenka's the honest type in the end. Tenka looks out into the crowd even as he sips his wine - it's already a different taste from sake.]
Well... The people here are nice.
But I was invited to a lot of these sort of parties back home and they never meant good things. I just stand out a lot, I think.
[and not by being smoking hot, alas]

[What a... polished guy... Tenka internally feels kinda awkward? Like whoa, does he have to watch what he says or will he get snapped at or something.... Well, only time will tell.]
I've heard that.
[And he counts off on his free hand--]
I've also heard of people who have been brought to other places that weren't their home and then brought here. I've heard of people coming here and then leaving and then coming back with no memory of this place. I've heard of people coming here and then leaving and then coming back still remembering this place but also experiencing new things at home--
.... You hear a lot of things if you've been here long enough, I guess.

[He shrugs a bit at that--]
Maybe.... [And then he admits:] Well, between you and me, I don't really wanna be here.
But my kids do, so that's mostly why I'm sticking around.
[and admittedly he does cheer up a bit, just thinking of them]

[Well. She did ask nicely but Tenka's just blinking like--]
Ha? No way!! You'll get your dressed all messed up - who knows how gross these things can be. Aniki's got it, don't worry about a thing!
[and he's grinning
tenka's a dope]

Saitou-kun then!
[There you go. That's easy. Tenka's.... honestly pretty easy to please.
Then as for why he was threatened--]
Ahhh, I called him Okita-kun. S'weird since Shinpachi-kun and Sano-kun don't even notice when I call them something different.
[y'know, like. insulting things.]

[Like a... prince.... and he's just laughing then even as he presses a happy kiss to the top of her head.]
I'll be your prince to protect you then, cute little Lily-chan.
But nope!! Not a single dragon in sight -- and I'll keep it that way so that no one can ruin your fun night.

Nah, don't lie -- but be more grateful! Someone does a nice thing for you, you should say thank you.
[???? as if he did that for anyone other than himself??]

[ . . . . that's a lot to hear in an automated voice. So he hums vaguely at that--]
That's all I could want for them. Sometimes the world deals you bad cards but anyone can be taught how to pick themselves up if they've got the drive to do it.
[That said.]
Have you not felt better this entire time, Celty-chan? Your voice still not working?

[ . . . . . ?]
Wait, you do politics, Kaoru-chan?!
[and this is the part where Tenka realizes that he doesn't think he knows much about Kaoru actually! whoa whoa, time for some ground-breaking shit here]

[and just like that
tenka is practically digging his heels into the floor]
No.
I take it back.
I don't want anything from you.

[ . . . . snorts.
Tenka just laughs faintly at that and well -- he can acknowledge an attempt from someone to try to cheer him up.]
Ahh, well there's that! I guess any place with decent food can't be all bad.

Oi...
You're chickening out?

Hey.
I'm not handsome normally?
[never let it be said that tenka's afraid to fish for compliments]

[SURPRISE. The first in a line of many surprises that will only become increasingly worse... But Kaoru actually looks a little surprised, too.]
Ah— well, I'm not a politician. I study medicine - Western medicine, if I've not mentioned it before. Still, clan heads are expected to be in attendance at certain gatherings and parties, yes? I'm no exception, even if those discussions don't interest me much.

Sometimes it's hard to tell, because you have a nice smile but you look sloppy?

M-Me? I wouldn't say it like that... well... they were more great warriors than "big shots", you know? I always wanted to be one, too.
[ But Tenka is no stranger to Jaune's wannabe hero complex by now. ]

[ Wow, bro. Don't even insult him over this when you're undoing that bow tie? In fact, even Shinpachi can see that, and he's leaning over a little bit in Tenka's direction and s q u i n t i n g as if he's judging the other man even now. ]
If I'm supposedly that much of an uncivilized person, then what are you doing right now, huh?
[ See, Tenka. Either you give up on jokingly insulting him over this and have to live with that tightness, or you give him the opportunity to throw those jokes back at you!! The choice of torture is up to you. ]
