[ ...ah... ]

You'll have to give me at least a couple of days to memorize this thing first, y'know. [ he waves the book around for emphasis ] It's no fun making secret notes if I gotta translate them word by word.

[compendiem]

[ It's taking everything in Minato's power to not hold up the piece of paper and go "got it memorized?" ]

I'll make sure to write you lots of notes, so you can get the practice in.

[leaberator]

[ minato should do it. everyone in axel's life has mocked his catchphrase as it deserves ]

You plannin' on overwhelming me right from the get-go? Harsh.

[compendiem]

Yes.

[ He can be harsh. ]

You're smart, so you'll be just fine. If you feel overwhelmed, I can help. This sort of stuff gets easier with practice, right?

[leaberator]

So you're the relentless teacher type, I get it. Scary. I don't have any choice but to learn this as fast as I can, huh?

[compendiem]

Yeah. [ ... ] It's something to keep your mind off things, anyways. If you need it.

[leaberator]

[ ... ah. ]

Thanks. [ ... ] That something you need?

[compendiem]

...Sometimes. Distractions can be good, sometimes. And being with you is fun.

[leaberator]

I like hanging out with you too, kid.

[

hair ruffles ]

That's why I'm gonna work hard an' learn morse code, even though all I really wanna do is take a nap in these books.

[compendiem]

[ The hair ruffle makes him smile, and he doesn't bother fixing his hair afterwards, just lets it be a mess. ]

I want to nap for ten days too, but I'll work hard too. For you, and for all of us.

[leaberator]

Maybe one of these days, we can just take a nap together instead. That's a form of hanging out.

[ is he joking? maybe ]

[compendiem]

Okay. I'd like that.

[ Is Minato joking? No. ]

[leaberator]

Alright. Deal. Next time we wanna hang out, it's naptime.

[compendiem]

Deal. Which reminds me— Naminé and I are going to ask you something on Monday. I hope you say yes.

[leaberator]

[ ... ? ]

Um. Sure? Why Monday?

[compendiem]

We'll all be there for the cooking competition.

[ the answer is convenience ]

[leaberator]

[ um......... ]

What, am I judging it?

[compendiem]

Yes. But that's not the question.

[leaberator]

[ w. what? ]

Wait, since when?

[compendiem]

Do you not want to?

[ ): ]

[leaberator]

[ he doesn't but he's weak ]

That's not what I'm saying, but doncha think it might've been a good idea to tell me so I knew to show up?

[compendiem]

I'm telling you right now.

[ He would not have asked, no, if Axel had not said anything. Maybe not until Monday morning. ]

[leaberator]

'Cause I asked-- never mind, it's fine.

[ minato is such a basket case. ]

Is there a reason you guys can't ask me earlier?

[compendiem]

Hm... There wasn't a good time for it? I dunno if people would even want to do something like this. Coming together... eating and hanging out...

[leaberator]

Nah, I meant... whatever it is you plan on asking me Monday. It's not the same thing, right?
