[ They take their own, but don't talk with their mouth full. ]

That's what I want to know! It's hard to talk to somebody when they're running away.

[selfimmolation]

[ swallows his mouthful ]

This is good, by the way! [ important. food. anyway; ] He hasn't said anything? Just stopped talking to you? Maybe he's embarrassed about something.

[becomemod]

Thanks. I'm no chef, but I can make a good meal.

I... guess so? I dunno what it'd be about.

[selfimmolation]

Well, I don't know you or your friend, but if he was mad about something, he'd tell you, right? So if he's running away, he must not want to admit to it.

[becomemod]

That's so stupid. He should just talk to me.

[selfimmolation]

I'm guessing you've tried telling him that?

[becomemod]

I'd sure like to! [ They're pretty annoyed about this, but their mood mellows out as they eat. ]

[selfimmolation]

Maybe try leaving him a letter? He can't ignore it if it's in writing.

[becomemod]

I'll do it once I get back home.

[selfimmolation]

Great. Now you've got a clear goal.

[becomemod]

[ They laugh, letting the mood lighten. ]

I'd also like to win the Fleur Award one day.

[selfimmolation]

Fleur award...?

[becomemod]

It's a theatre award.

[selfimmolation]

For writing, I guess?

[becomemod]

It's for a whole production. Script, acting, sound and lights. They're all part of what makes theater work.

[selfimmolation]

So more like... best show overall, then. You think you guys can get that?

[becomemod]

There's a lot of competition, and a ton of people who've been in the business longer... One day, we will.

[selfimmolation]

Just because someone's been in longer doesn't necessarily mean they're better.

[becomemod]

That's true. We managed to win against veteran actors before. So we've got a good shot at getting it.

[selfimmolation]

Is that award your dream, then?

[becomemod]

[ Extremely fond. ]

Yeah.

[selfimmolation]

Then I hope you get it once you're back home!

[ with their eight place. ]

[becomemod]

I'll work hard.

[ There's got to be a way around it, right?? ]

[selfimmolation]

If you're as good at making omelets as you are at writing, you've got it in the bag!

[ nom nom nom. yeah he's not even thinking about how it's going to happen sorry about our possibly permanent eight place goat ]

[becomemod]

Haha. The more you write and the more you read, the better you get. I'm putting everything into my scripts.

[ It's fine. Maybe. Probably? ]
