[ he looks

a little exasperated at that ]

[divus]

Whaaaaat. What's with that look!

[bakaomi]

A lot of you keep saying that.

[divus]

You keep looking at us funny!

[bakaomi]

You keep saying things that deserve it!

[divus]

I don't see how what I said deserved that look.

[bakaomi]

It definitely did.

[ he doesn't say why ]

[divus]

Did not!

[bakaomi]

You most definitely did!!

[divus]

What, exactly, was so look-worthy about it?

[bakaomi]

... it's just easier said than done.

[divus]

Most things that are meaningful are easier said than done, Takaomi-kun. That's why doing them is so rewarding.

[bakaomi]

Rewarding or annoying...

[divus]

[pretend there's a face icon here work is dumb]

A little of both, but more rewarding than annoying, I'd hope.

[bakaomi]

That's still up for debate.

[divus]

Is it?

[bakaomi]

... yes...

[divus]

Why?

[bakaomi]

... I mean, failing at it can kind of be a huge disaster.

[divus]

High risk, high reward, right?

[bakaomi]

...

So you think taking the risk is always worth it?

[divus]

I mean, why not? Even if you fail, at least you know that you never stopped trying.

I think it'd be more sad not to try at all and always be wondering what might have happened.

[bakaomi]

At least you wouldn't be disappointed that way though.

[divus]

I dunno, not trying at all is pretty disappointing.

[bakaomi]

[ he opens his mouth

then closes it, sighing ]

I guess so.
