[lapidarius]

Please don't do that, I need those.

[digiorno]

I think that's why he hasn't asked me to do it yet. He doesn't want to upset you, even though he wants to see it.

Really he's much nicer about it than I would be. Or shyer, at least. Not sure if that's the same thing.

[lapidarius]

I don't really understand it, I don't think I look all that different.

[digiorno]

I'm not an expert or anything. But I think people like us look more different than we think we do when we let ourselves relax a little.

[lapidarius]

What, like how people can look drastically different with or without glasses? I guess that makes logical sense, to a point.

[digiorno]

Not really. I mean we always like to have things a certain way. So when we feel safe enough to have things be a different way, it's really meaningful.

Every time he sees me with my hair down he says something. I used to be worried it was because I looked like . . . you know. But I think it's just because I look calm and relaxed, and he thinks that means I'm happy. So maybe it's the same thing.

[lapidarius]

...Oh. That...actually seems like a pretty good point, doesn't it?

[he is trying, okay.]

I suppose that I could do that.

[digiorno]

You could.

[Let him help. By sneaking his hand up to ruffle Kakyoin's hair huehuehue.]

[lapidarius]

What're y--hey, stop that!

[digiorno]

Noooooo . . .

[HUEHUEHUE]

[lapidarius]

Giorno--!

[are we slapfighting each other's hands]

[is this what world-saving heroes do now]

[digiorno]

[YES WE DAMN WELL ARE A GOOD TIME HAD BY ALL]

[He is still doing his damnedest to hair-ruffle but it's a lot harder with Kakyoin trying to interrupt his holy work. Rude.]

See, you're relaxed now, aren't you? You look very relaxed!

[what a great day]

[lapidarius]

[this is absolutely the face of 'relaxed']

You're awful.

[digiorno]

I'm wonderful! I'm helping!

[The noodle is effectively ruined. The greatest victory for Don Giovanna]

[lapidarius]

[how could you...]

What did my hair ever do to you to deserve help, exactly?

[digiorno]

It was too uptight. It needed to calm down. It's calm now.

[It does not look calm. It looks Upset.]

[lapidarius]

[YOU HAVE DISTURBED THE NOODLE]

I would like you to appreciate that nearly anyone else that did that would be on the floor with a broken nose right now.

[digiorno]

I know. You told me when you were sick that you like me too much to get revenge on me. So now I know I'm safe with you no matter what, coltellino.

[Just gonna hug Kakyoin a little tighter. What a good noodle he is.]

[lapidarius]

More like incredibly lucky. [GRUMPY HUGS]

[digiorno]

I'm the luckiest because you're my friend.

[PETS THE NOODLE BACK INTO PLACE . . . poorly.]

[lapidarius]

Oh, I thought that was my line.

[digiorno]

It can be both of our lines. We can share. I don't mind if you don't.

[lapidarius]

Fine, if you insist. I'm lucky you're my friend, and I'm glad you're here right now.

[digiorno]

[He hums, pleased, and rests his head on Kakyoin's shoulder.]

See, that's exactly how it should be.

[lapidarius]

What, with you trying to drive me crazy?

[...]

I can live with that.
