[bakaomi]

You seem like the kind of guy who would only read the fortune but wouldn't eat the cookie.

[divus]

Why is that a bad thing?! [So yeah??? What of it?] Isn't it what's on the inside that counts?

[bakaomi]

[ he dramatically points at him ]

You're wasting food!!

[divus]

Not if I give the cookie part to someone else! Who goes out and dines on fortune cookies alone?!

[bakaomi]

Haven't you ever ordered takeout?! They give you them!!

[divus]

No I haven't! [Sadly this is probably true.] At least not recently?

[...] ...usually everything is hand-prepared.

[bakaomi]

God you are so fucking rich.

[ ugh ]

[divus]

That is hardly my fault.

[bakaomi]

That doesn't make it any less true...

[divus]

It's not like you aren't. You do realize we know about you, too, don't you?

[bakaomi]

Aren't you like, crazy rich? I'm like... decently well off! It's different!

[ TAKA HAS HAD TAKEOUT ]

[divus]

How is that different?! It's still levels above being a commoner!

[bakaomi]

I still do normal things! Like eat takeout!!

[ (taka voice) i'm not like other girls ]

[divus]

I can still do normal things! I do normal things all the time!

[This is the dumbest argument but it's a matter of PRIDE.]

[bakaomi]

Really? Name something normal then!!

[ this is extremely stupid

but at least no one is around to hear ]

[divus]

[...well. Fuck. Uh.]

We went to a shrine for the new year! That's totally normal!

[bakaomi]

Did you have any idea of what to do there?!

[ HE KNOWS THIS TROPE

HE LIVES IT AT SCHOOL ]

[divus]

[Oh. He seems to deflate back to normal.]

Not clap my hands because it was technically a temple. [What.] There's a difference.

[bakaomi]

Was that with Haruhi?

[ she seems like the only normal person in his friend group ]

[divus]

[He goes quiet suddenly, nostalgia taking over.]

...yes. All of us went together. Mei-chan as well. It was pleasant, actually.

[bakaomi]

[ oh no, the nostalgia ]

Who's Mei?

[divus]

Haruhi's father's best friend's daughter. A commoner like Haruhi, but she went to a different school. Nice enough, I suppose.

[He likes Mei, actually, but Tamaki's hard-pressed to dislike most people.] I think it helped for her to have a friend who was a girl when she spent most of her time with us.

[bakaomi]

[ taka cannot believe tamaki has the nerve to say that he is not worse when he still calls people things like "commoner" but he is going to let it slide ]

Girls are usually weird, so I guess that makes sense.

[divus]

I thought you didn't even have girls at your academy.

[bakaomi]

We do. There just aren't any in the special class.

[ he pauses

LIKE HE JUST REALIZED THIS FACT......,,, ]
