TIMEY WIMEY!!!

[salaryman]

[ Ah.

It's odd to feel a sense of relief and also anxiety over the someone's presence being gone.

But he thinks that it is mostly relief that he feels at the moment. He can take a nice breather and not have to hear anything irritating.

The beer in front of him is cheap, but it is also cold and a little rewarding. It is a comfort that he recalls partaking it after long hours of work as a salaryman.

Just as he is about to lift the tankard to his lips, he hears his companion speak. His eyes widen -- it's more the tone than anything else. It's a familiar tone that causes him to set the drink back down. ]

Who? And why?

[casaposa]

[A direct response to his wine fueled mumble isn't what he expected out of anyone at this bar. Not that he was looking for an ear-it came out on its own and it was meant to die on the rim of this glass.

But now that someone's speaking up-

He can't help to raise his head slightly, tilting his chin to get a better look at him and judge whether or not it's worth it to continue.

The man doesn't look irritating-he's not brunet, doesn't have an annoying smirk on his face. That's a good start.]

Not you, if that's your concern.

[Not yet anyway. He gives a dismissive wave of his hand and the bartender, thankfully, fills up his glass again.]

I'm speaking of my roommate. He's an irritating mess and not worth discussing.

[He says, as he whole ass discusses him.]

Who acts like that? He's a literal child.

[salaryman]

It isn't.

[ Though, even if it was about him, he still wouldn't be concerned about it. He lifts his mug back to his lips to take a deep drink.

His gaze once more drifts to his companion. The first thought that comes to him is that he should simply move out and find someone that is much more palatable to spend time with.

However, there is a way that the man speaks that causes Nanami pause. His shoulders drop even though he doesn't mean for them to do so; he turns his head to the side to let out a very soft sigh.

This feeling is familiar. ]

If you would allow me to make a broad statement? He is someone who you trust in, but not a person you can bring yourself to respect. [ A sympathetic beat. ] Right?

[casaposa]

[That's astute. The observation enough to make him pause mid sip and tilt his head to take in his new companion with a newfound interest.]

If he would act in a respectable way, there would be no problem. It's as if he blatantly chooses every opportunity to be a fool.

[Oh well. He gives a dismissive, dramatic wave of his hand and-]

But you seem to know the type well enough. Did one send you to the edge of this bar tonight?

[salaryman]

[ Nanami turns his head to click his tongue. ]

No. Thankfully, that individual is not in this city.

[ And he does honestly mean that. Gojou is someone that is best to remain in their own world; he cannot even imagine the power vacuum that would come to be if he was teleported elsewhere. The society -- both jujutsu sorcerers and the normal people -- remain safe and protected thanks to him. ]

That person does not know how to act respectable. He does know when to be serious, but even then... he certainly is the type that would rather be a fool than be sincere.

[ He stares at nothing for a second before he lifts his beer up to drink deep. ]

[casaposa]

Lucky you.

[Caesar takes that 'thankfully' in a different context-barking out a light, airy sort of laugh into the rim of his glass. At least one of them is free from that particular asshole curse.]

You talk as if you know JoJo personally. I can only hope you haven't had the 'honor'. That idiot can try the patience of all.

[salaryman]

Indeed.

[ Nanami takes Caesar's comment as sympathy for the fact that he knows such a person. It makes him feel a little tired that there is someone else like Gojou present, but -- ]

No, I have not had the pleasure of meeting him. [ A small sigh. ] Rest assured, if you met my senpai, I believe that you would find no one would be able to try your patience, at all.

[ What is this? ] I believe I could handle JoJo.

[casaposa]

Do you?

[They need to have a shitty friend exchange should this man's senpai ever appear in this world. Caesar has his doubts there could be another irritating force of nature out there that rivals JoJo-he's in a league of his own. ]

I may take you up on that sometime. The man could use a babysitter.

[He takes another sip, then two.]

Not that I would wish that fate on my worse foe and you're far from that.
