Hey.  I’m not into public introductions, it feels like AA or something.  Name’s Rudolf Ushiromiya, just got a few questions here for the rest of you.

Anyone know how exactly they decide where you go?  It’s like a horoscope, right?  Personalities and all that.  So what’s the formula, if you want specifics, it’d be Baldr.  If you don’t like how they judged you, who do you talk to about getting a switch?  I don’t like the idea of somebody just assuming who I am.

Oh yeah, and what kind of jobs are up for grabs, or businesses that might be needed.  This suite doesn’t really suit my tastes.  …And I guess I’m gonna have to buy cigarettes.

no one understands

[gunsgoldgirls]

Everything's better with some help, right? Doesn't really matter what it is.

...Is she the only one looking after you now? At home, I mean.

But you've got Battler pegged right, he won't listen to anybody once his mind's made up.

it okay

[departing]

You have a point. Someone I know could take that advice. She never accepts help from anyone.

[It's because Ayase's in a wheelchair and she doesn't want anyone to pity her. Doesn't make it easy to watch though.]

Until recently that's how things were. Now Inori's looking after me as well. Uh. She's my girlfriend from home.

I thought as much. He's so confident in everything he does and doesn't slow down to think about what's going on around him.

we your friends...? ah just as I get a madoka tag notification

[gunsgoldgirls]

Being taken care of by your girlfriend already, huh? That's not so bad. But the stepmother's the only parent? Must be pretty awkward.

[If that were Kyrie and Battler...lmao]

That's what makes him a dumbass, there's a good reason if he'd just wait a minute and listen. But he always goes running headlong into things anyway. [He shrugs] Guess I was probably like that too, just part of being a teenager, though some are smarter than others. Your friend's probably along the same line.

rabu. meduka no suffering

[departing]

She said taking care of me makes her happy, so it's okay. To be honest, it is kind of awkward but I'm not against it. Having Haruka around is more fun than being alone.

[That can only end well.]

It makes him look foolish and it surprised me at first. Ange is completely different from him. Calm and cool headed.

You realized that was wrong, eventually. Looks that way.

will you sacrifice yourself for our typos...

[gunsgoldgirls]

It's good you guys can get along without having the common link around. Battler's the same as you in that, at least. He could stand to learn more, though. Subtly drill it in for me, will ya?

Eeh, maybe not entirely. It's one thing to be able to say it, but doing it's different...

always fighting to free rpers from typos and suffering

[departing]

What about Battler? Is he really that hard headed?

I'll try my best.

So then it is true how they say words are cheap.

can you free them of full inboxes too...

[gunsgoldgirls]

Oh, for sure, he's a total numbskull! The only thing to be said for him is he does get along with his stepmother. Kinda weird how you guys are just the same, but completely different.

It sure is, you can see the error of your ways, but that doesn't mean you're gonna fix it.

yes always and forever ;a;

[departing]

I thought so. In that regard, we may be similar, but we're totally different too.

I'll pass on being a pervert. Why does he take pride in that?

[Cries. Your son, why. Rudolf. Why?]

Oh. So it's something like that? What if you know the problem and don't know how to fix it?

sob, our hero...!!

[gunsgoldgirls]

Uh...about that...might sorta be my fault there. Kids learn by example.

[Because like father. like son...]

Well yeah, sometimes you don't know how or just plain can't, others you don't have a reason to want to. ...Or happen to fall back into it anyway. You probably don't want to take my advice on fixing it, hasn't worked yet.

[departing]

I wouldn't have expected that answer from you.

Um.

Sorry I asked. Haruka said that too. About children. That's why she always tells me to be polite to girls. It was hard for me to get out of the habit.

[Sobbing.]

Not being able to do it...can become a problem. You can keep trying, I guess. Until it works. That is.

[gunsgoldgirls]

You can be polite to girls and still be a pervert or whatever else you want to call it. It just takes a little tact. Something Battler probably doesn't have.

[The Ushiromiyas can help you with that...]

The problem there is you have to set the mistakes you already made straight, that can take a lot.

[departing]

He might want to ask someone to help him out on that, I guess.

[Definitely not.]

Its hard when you're not even sure of what you did wrong in the first place.

[gunsgoldgirls]

Good thing he's got friends like you to teach him how to behave, right?

Are you saying there's something up with you?

[departing]

[A firm nod.]

Ange can help too. She's strong.

Something up? What do you mean?

[He doesn't understandddd. It sucks being on the dense side.]

[gunsgoldgirls]

Ah, you just make it sound like you've got something in mind that's happening with you.

[Oh look, even more in common with Battler!]

[departing]

Something going on?

Like what?

[It's true.

You'll have to explain more Rudolf.]

[gunsgoldgirls]

I don't know, you tell me!

[This is just going to end up being really confusing, isn't it]

[departing]

I wouldn't know.

What were we doing again?

[Confusing for everyone. They may be in need of an intervention.]

[gunsgoldgirls]

...Good question. Damned if I know. You can't expect us old people to remember much, I've got the memory of a goldfish by now.

[departing]

Both of us don't know then.

[Best conversation ever.]

So.

Did you need help with anything? Most people have a bunch of questions to ask when they first arrive. I mean. That's how it usually goes.

[gunsgoldgirls]

[Two idiots...]

Let's see...not much, I've got a few things answered. How about a list of every male who's talked to my daughter.

[departing]

I can work on it, but wouldn't that be stalking?

[Thinking hardly about this.


It feels wrong, but he's not against it.]

Maybe I'll ask her for you.

[gunsgoldgirls]

[He's totally not serious, oh no, Shuuuuu...!!]

Nah, a parent's supposed to keep an eye on what they're kid's doing and who they're talking to, right?

[departing]

[Oh no.

Ange knows a bunch of criminals.

How is he supposed to explain?

He'll just keep this to himself.

Before Rudolf goes crazy.]

It's been a few months since she first arrived here. You may have to ask her everything yourself.

I'm not sure.

[gunsgoldgirls]

[No, no, spit it out, boy!!]

She probably won't answer if I ask, it has to be real casual, from someone she least suspects!
