WHY NOT

[digthefuzz]

[He makes a buzzer sound.]

Wrong, try again!

THROWS THAT PLURK EMOTE AT U

[avantguard]

Eh?! [WHY IS SHE WRONG IT'S AN OPINION]

It was a bad one, I didn't even laugh! Plus, you used my name as a joke. [>:(]

EATS IT

[digthefuzz]

What? I was just using the material around me! That's an important part of making jokes.

Plus, we haven't proved yet that you can laugh.

gasp

[avantguard]

I can laugh.

[As she frowns. Jokes using her name isn't the best way to go about it though.]

that's right

[digthefuzz]

Unless I find proof, I might have to assume you're really an anti-humor robot. [But no, he'll try to think of something newer and better to use on her.]

rude

[avantguard]

[Looks at him SO FLATLY.]

Is that supposed to be another joke?

no you

[digthefuzz]

I'm not sure. I think I might be onto something! [He says with some light teasing sarcasm, as he smiles to try to contrast her face. He's not sure if he's ever seen a flatter look.]

i didn't do anything!!

[avantguard]

[It's so flat she's going to turn two dimensional.

Her cheeks flush and she's getting annoyed at being called a robot. She's been called a lot of things but they still cut at her. She has FEELINGS.]

Then, I'll take my leave. [SPINS ON HER HEEL.]

you did everything

[digthefuzz]

What, just like that? [He tries to trail after her.]

Wait, I'm just playing with you! [He still doesn't want her to chase a wolf alone...]

:(

[avantguard]

[KEEPS MARCHING AWAY. She's going to chase it alone now!!]

I need to find the the Wolf of Darkness anyway.

:((

[digthefuzz]

[Wow now that is rude!]

A-alone? Come on... We have to be careful!

:(((

[avantguard]

[Now she DOES spin to face him.]

I am careful and I've been keeping my distance. [Asuna you don't have a choice you can't even catch it.]

You're the one making jokes.

:((()))

[digthefuzz]

[He flinches like a wimp.]

What's wrong with a few jokes? You can mess up from being too tense about something!

(__(__)

[avantguard]

I'm not tense!

[Her fists are clenched at her sides.]

And I'm not a robot!

is that a butt

[digthefuzz]

[He raises his hands defensively.]

Okay, you're definitely not a robot. ...But you're not exactly selling me on not being tense.

yes for u

[avantguard]

[Exhales through her nose in a huff! She's practically bristling like a cat.]

If I'm tense it's because there's a monster on the loose and I don't have any weapon to protect myself.

thanks i think

[digthefuzz]

Look at yourself! What do you think you're going to accomplish like this?

[avantguard]

Anything is better than hiding away and not doing anything.

[digthefuzz]

What, does that make the rest of us cowards? It's... it's biding our time, sticking together and being on the defense! It sounds a lot better to me than running off on your own without any plan.

[avantguard]

I have a plan. I wouldn't do this if I didn't have one since it would be stupid, especially when lives are on the line.

[That serious expression of hers gives an inch.]

I never called anyone a coward, either. It's just impossible for me to sit around and wait to be saved. If there's something I can do, then I'll do it.

[digthefuzz]

[He looks at her for a moment, then he sighs and slumps his shoulders.]

...Fine. I guess I can't stop you.

[avantguard]

[HE CANNOT.

After all that.]

Will you be alright? You're making jokes to try and make things easier for everyone, aren't you?

[digthefuzz]

More or less... Yeah. [Especially including himself.]

If you turn up alright, I'll be alright.

[avantguard]

[Surprisingly, this is what makes her tense posture loosen and for Asuna to finally find some chill.]

Keep working hard, Kurt-san. I'd like to hear a good joke, someday.

[AKA she will turn up alright]

[digthefuzz]

[He responds a little weakly.]

Maybe it'll be when we get out of this place.

Because... it will be too cool for school.
