Oh my god it's not being heartless, you idiots. [But he's sighing anyway, watching the bird before he steps out of the way to motion them inside.] I'd rather not deal with the cops tonight either, so hurry up and lure the bird in here before I change my mind. Once he's in we're going to talk about what the fuck you're going to do with him next and if he pecks me, I'm kicking you all out.
though he's also just going to look like he Won when luke agrees to let them into the bar. with the chocobo. baren's laughing, pulling on V's bridle and leeeeaaading the giant fucking bird into Cabin Eleven - ]
[He's already ducking before Baren even says anything... He's gotten used to this situation way too easily?! But that's just how things go when you spend excessive amounts of time around Baren. You adapt or you die.]
You don't have to worry about being pecked, at least. V's a really good bird, see?
Depends. Do these things eat leftover cheese fries? Got plenty of those. And probably arugula...that's not going that well for me. Why'd you name the thing V anyway? What does that mean?
[AND WHY ARE YOU ATTACHED...it's a somewhat maybe possibly wild bird and Luke doesn't trust this okay.]
You're looking at Louis McQueen Stella Galliano Wang Rykiel Vuitton. [it's just a bunch of designer names...... but Baren's still affectionately petting their beloved Louis McQueen Stella Galliano Wang Rykiel Vuitton on the head as they enter the bar with this chocobo
there is now a chocobo in luke's bar at 3 am]
Cheese fries will have to do for now. I wouldn't shovel arugula onto my worst enemy.
[ . . . . actually
the look on his face after he says it implies that he thinks that's not a bad idea]
Kashuu will finally hop on off of V's back once they're all situated cozily inside, though! And then pat it gently because he's apparently gone from "why the fck do chocobos exist" to "this is my favorite chocobo in all the lands" in like 2 hours. Or however long it took them to steal and flee.]
Can I have some, too? I didn't get the chance to grab dinner before I left.
[Luckily the ceiling is very tall and it means that V can hang out comfortable, too. Kashuu lands on the ground and Luke rolls his eyes, signaling for the idiot brigade to sit at the bar before he turns to head toward the back again. Sure. He'll feed everybody, whatever.]
Gimme ten. Do I want to know which of you came up with the name? That sounds all...fashion-y. [Just saying. It could be either of them at this rate.]
[it's the dead of night and everyone is mooching off of luke tonight. but baren's excited for this, taking up a seat at a bar and making a faint clicking noise to get v's attention and gesturing for the chocobo to come to him, letting his arm fall comfortably around his neck]
I'm impressed that you recognized it as fashion... So you do listen to us when we talk - I thought you just had really well-timed head nods.
Hey, if you're listening enough to get that, you should listen when I make wardrobe suggestions!
[LUMBERJACK CHIC, LUKE!! But he'll trot over too and take up what is probably His Usual Seat, propping his elbows up on the counter because no one has to worry about being elegant when their company is Baren, Luke and a giant chicken.]
Fuck off. [It's casual because...yeah, he sure does. It sucks.] I've learned how to pick out the important parts of your bullshit and I always listen to Kashuu. [Because Thalia would probably kick his ass but also he likes Kashuu a lot. He's also busy making food, give him time.]
That definitely doesn't answer my question though. I want to know who to blame for this one.
[and that's something that he says with confidence, even though there's a solid chance that it's false. followed by something else that is even more false:]
It's like Kiyo and I are of one mind sometimes, you know?
Just try not to destroy the town more than it's already wrecked, okay guys? [He's grinning though despite himself because as much as he bitches especially about Baren's dumb ideas, he tolerates both of them pretty well. It's not long before the first plate of cheese fries parks itself in front of Kashuu, along with what looks like a few of those little cheeseburger sliders. It's been a busy night and Luke's learning how to actually operate a kitchen.]
So the real question is if you're up to date on what's going on around here. Kashuu and I have had the app for a while, but. [A shrug.] Have you guys had the chance to really dig into it?

Also, here are the moments when Kashuu plays along with Baren so seamlessly that it's obvious he's one of party satan's henchmen.]
We're launching more collabs soon so I hope you'll keep an eye out, okay? It'll all be as exciting as this!
[Just to give Luke something to be concerned about.]
