[ she is not surprised he hasn't figured it out, but also.......

also..... ]

What do you mean you've been through this sort of hunger before?

[aspirings]

Oh, that's because--

[...

He shuts his mouth.

Ouugh he said too much too easily. He doesn't think she'll appreciate his answer to that.]

... Er, it really isn't that important, all things considered. And we have food now to fill our stomachs to our heart's content!

[untrusted]

Because?

[ she knows he's trying to dismiss it but it's an odd thing to say from someone with his personality. ]

[aspirings]

[...

A sigh. Yeah. If he keeps trying to dodge the question, it'll start to seem like more of a big deal than it was.]

There was... this role once that I was trying to audition for. I was having trouble connecting with it, so I decided to go without food for as long as the character did in an attempt to understand him better.

[Because Tsukasa's just Like That about theater.]

Obviously, I was perfectly fine after!

[untrusted]

Was it worth it? Did you receive the result you wanted?

[aspirings]

[Yay. That's a question he can enthusiastically answer.]

I did!! I was able to properly portray the role in auditions, was chosen for said role, and put on a magnificent performance!

[He has learned nothing from this and will in fact do it again.]

[untrusted]

[ unfortunately.... unfortunately!!! medea is not a good person and she is not a good adult. she had her own starving stint for an objective, and so all she does is nod. ]

As long as you succeeded.

[ if he didn't irrevocably harm himself, it's whatever. ]

[aspirings]

[This is why he thinks Medea is the coolest.]

Yes, precisely! I absolutely succeeded, so there is no need for concern.

Likewise, I can handle the feeling of being hungry. I doubt it will last forever.

[untrusted]

It's a bit of a surprise. I thought you'd be the type to wilt from it since you feel so strongly.

[ but maybe it's because he's too head empty and single-minded. ]

[aspirings]

W-wilt?!

[He looks over-the-top devastated by this read on him.]

Hardly! Of course I am the sort to always persevere no matter what!

[untrusted]

You're wilting right now.

[aspirings]

[GASP]

I am not!

[...

...]

Am I?

[untrusted]

[




when did his stupidity start being a little less annoying ]

You are.

[aspirings]

[the real tsukasa tenma experience.

He just straightens a little, shivering, and slaps at his cheeks. LESS WILT-Y. LESS WILT-Y RIGHT NOW.]

J-just a moment! I'll be the opposite of that in just a moment. I'll be... flourishing!

[dumb]

[untrusted]

[ it's an almost endearing kind of dumb. he's just so earnest.... ]

You'll be blooming.

[aspirings]

[... Oh?

Well, that's certainly something he would say about himself, but he wasn't expecting Medea to say it. He blinks at her for a moment, eyes wide, and then he beams, expression exceptionally bright.]

... Right! Right, exactly! You understand completely.

And when I've properly succeeded in a way that I think will pass your muster, I'll be certain to show you!

[untrusted]

[ unfortunately, she also thinks he is easy to manipulate. ]

I'll look forward to it. Don't disappoint me.

[aspirings]

[she is right.

She's got him wrapped around her little finger.]

Of course, of course! For now, you should eat more!

[They can continue their silly little ihop dinner. But Tsukasa is so touched eternally.]
