anyway!!! a muffin! he's never seen this before either. gu yun picks it up, examining it thoughtfully, turning it around in his hand. he had a cupcake yesterday, so this is kind of? similar? ] This looks a bit too sweet.
[She's taking these carrots, thanks. She nods, though!]
And you're Gu Yun, the military leader. [...] Ah, speaking of those profiles, when it says daddy issues... Does that mean you just don't get along with your father? I've never heard that term before.
[ the bad taste part anyway. he laughs at his clever joke, turning his attention to the screen, and there is a brief moment where his hand stutters in smacking the screen again to make more food come out.
these profiles are the worst actually. ]
My father's long dead, so if there are issues, they must be buried. [ are they, bud ]
[ that comes with a laugh and a grin!! he has no issues! none at all. none relating with any older male figure in his life, ever!
the machine pops out a bowl of granola and some yogurt, which... is foreign but looks fine, i guess. he takes it, heading over to take a seat somewhere nearby.
there's a beat, though, and then he frowns. ] --Unless, I suppose, it was referring to Chang Geng? That's rude. Who wrote these things anyhow.
That's right. It'd be a bit odd if we were any closer in age, don't you think?
[ considering gu yun is pretty young himself. he takes a bite of his yogurt, gesturing with the spoon after. ] Actually, it's only recently that he's even started to lose the baby fat off of his cheeks. It surprised me, the last time I saw him.
[ he does sound fond, there. and a little like. bemused. it's fine. ]
I'm not sure if that's a compliment or an insult. [ that comes with a laugh. he's young and spry, please.
but! to the second part, he nods, expression shifting a bit into something more thoughtful. ] Mm. I'm a commander, like you said. Not much time spent at home.
He's certainly special, but I don't know if I'd say strong. [ snickering a little fondly to himself. ] I've seen him lose fights to a training dummy too many times to count.
[ oh, if only it was a crau. ] That's an interesting question to ask, though. Why do you want to know?
Well, where I come from, the most important families only adopt children with especially great skill and talent! How else would they elevate their family name?
Haha! I've heard that before. [ being a child of great skill and talent, huh... ] Believe me, his family name can't get any higher than it already is. Not mine, but the one that belongs to him originally - my care for him is only until he turns of age, before he'll join his extended family once more.

[She moves closer to the machine and just slams her hand on whatever option is closest. Hopefully it's not something hideous! She's helping.]
There.

...French fries? [ out come the potatoes.
what. ]
no subject
Oh, I've heard those are good. Of course, I'd never eat them, they're way too fattening for a girl like me.

Aren't you a man?
[A muffin comes out.]

Oh, those are good...
[god she loves food]
no subject
ugh vegetables. well, they're not green, i guess. ] I'll take your word for it. Really, these ought to be mixed into something.
[ to hide the flavor of the vegetables. are you five? yeah. ] You're quite the connoisseur... let's see. [ recalling, recalling... ] Endorsi, right?

no subject
Oh? Do you have two fathers?
1/2
No. I think I'm the daddy, in this case.
no subject
That is to say, I'm a father. Well, sort of. I have a ward in my care.
no subject
Oh! Do you cause him or her a lot of issues, then?
no subject
anyway!!! he makes a face, nose wrinkling up and frowning. 8C ]
Well, I don't think I do. He might have something to say otherwise - he's only fifteen. I think he's going through a rebellious phase. [ ?????? ]

[She looks briefly puzzled by the age before she remembers that all of them are babies according to the profiles. Wild.]
So, younger than even the youngest people here?
[Just so she can get a vantage point.]

[why is she surrounded by infants who look older than her
Anyways, she pauses.]
The last time you saw him? Do you not see him often?
no subject

[Normally she might ask why she has someone as his ward in that case, but that kind of situation isn't too unfamiliar to her, so.]
Is he especially strong?
no subject
He's certainly special, but I don't know if I'd say strong. [ snickering a little fondly to himself. ] I've seen him lose fights to a training dummy too many times to count.
