Oh hey, look who got ditched (Main Jaunt Network)

[all_onis_are_true]

Ah, if I could possibly get somebody's attention?

I was... briefly sidelined for a bit, and when I came back to Liminal Space, it seemed most of the people here had already moved out on a Jaunt. Is there something I should be doing in a situation like this? I must admit I am a little, ah... confused at the moment. Perhaps I could be watching over something for somebody if worst comes to worst?

His job is to drum up interest and create scandals. I daresay he'll flirt with any who cross his path; there's no need to single me out among them.

[he does also have Relevant Information-slash-Theories™ to share, but priorities.]

[all_onis_are_true]

[You are really bad at this whole "hiding your relationship/near-relationship" thing. And Hiroshi is ACE, so that's saying something.]

I will take your word for it. Have you seen anybody else he has flirted with, and does it seem angled towards any particular purpose?

[cloudpotter]

[there's nothing to hide, it's all rumors and he knows exactly which werewolf is responsible for them]

He's a rock star. The only purpose is to keep people interested in him for the sake of publicity; the more noticed they feel, the more likely they are to buy merchandise and support the band.

[Bruh, he ain't questioning you personally, but you keep rushing in with denial and it's not gonna work out too well re: the whole "quelling the rumors" thing. Just flavor-texting.]

So you think he flirts exclusively for the sake of marketing? That is a rather cynical outlook.

[cloudpotter]

[what's a guy to do, when the person who usually stops him from digging his holes is currently Infiltrated? Yakumo never quite got the hang of knowing when to stop.]

It's the business, and to think otherwise is naive. All the other bands will be doing just the same.

[all_onis_are_true]

I admit I am unfamiliar with the business.

[But he's pretty sure that can't be the ONLY reason somebody flirts in a band.]

[thornsofmalkav]

Hey, maybe his Inner Kinji is doing the flirting? I mean, you guys are working up to dating, right?

[cloudpotter]

We are doing no such thing. Stop listening to Bob.

[thornsofmalkav]

I dunno, you smelled and sounded pretty interested to me in that memory he showed me.

[cloudpotter]

[he is going to kill Bob]

Just the usual anticipation of meeting a celebrity. If you watched the memory, then you'll know that it faded quite promptly when it became apparent that it was only Kinji.

[thornsofmalkav]

Dude, it's okay to have a crush on David Tennant. Millions of fangirls do.

[cloudpotter]

Even so, what I feel isn't a 'crush'. [how dare you, it's so much more than that] It's the proper amount of respect and admiration that should be afforded to such an incredible actor.

[thornsofmalkav]

Who many women and bi-and-gay men think is hot.

[finalizes]

[...]

Shall I test that theory?

[thornsofmalkav]

... are you going to flirt with Shooting Star, dude? You sure you won't feel like you're betraying your babymama?

[finalizes]

She's the mother of my cubs, not my mate.

[thornsofmalkav]

... please tell me you're at least paying wolf child support.

[finalizes]

...What?

[Sorry, leech, half of your words just lack any meaning at all to him.]

[thornsofmalkav]

Were you helping your babymama feed her cubs?

[finalizes]

I would have stuck around and made sure that their pack was safe for a while. Which includes making sure that there's enough game in the area, or that they have enough to eat otherwise.

[cloudpotter]

You needn't put any effort into it. Just wait until someone of an appropriate age approaches him, and you'll see.

[finalizes]

An "appropriate age"?

[cloudpotter]

Someone within his age range.

[finalizes]

I'm in his age range.

[Mature and not old.]

[cloudpotter]

You're a child. Even disregarding your actual age, you look no older than a teenager.
