GENKI SILENT PROTAG. She'll probably strong-arm you into doing something ridiculous, and do so with the cutest smile on earth. She might also poke you with a naginata if you're a punk.
THE SASSY PROTAG. a phantom thief with a heart of gold. lives rebelliously and without regrets, though spends most of his time feigning a very unassuming persona. #nailedit
A true sunshine protagonist. Country bumpkin, slow on the uptake. Wants to be everyone's friend. Swordian Master of fire, incredibly hot-blooded. A GOOD BEAN. Please love him. He's my favorite and I am biased.
The original fabulous Tales science lady. Probably wants to dissect you pretty shamelessly. Loves and adores cute things. Inventor of the Swordians. Definitely the definition of Mad Scientist.
[Well, okay...?? The food selection is a lot better than what they were able to have in the Garrelia Fortress, which is surprising but also not, somehow.
So he'll pick out a decent meal, and then he'll join Hubert at the table, tilting his head a little.]
...The selection here is better than I had anticipated.
[but of course, it's his adoptive father who donates a lot of money and resources for his own political gain with some flimsy guise of keeping his son healthy and well-fed.
there's little reason to get into that, so hubert stops himself, pushing his glasses on his nose.]
We've some wealthy donors that insist on ensuring our meals are balanced, overboard as that may seem.
[That's more in line with what he's used to, honestly. Not for himself, perhaps, but it's what he would assume his father would do for...say, Rufus.
The Provincial Armies probably eat just as well also... hm.]
There is no issue with that at base, but...
[Well, the only issue comes when it's not fairly distributed amongst the others who fight to protect, but aren't granted the same amenities. That's what he thinks, anyway.]
Yes, it can be quite troublesome in the grand scheme of things.
[hubert doesn't disagree. though jusis doesn't really specify where he's going with that statement, hubert understands—
because he agrees with it. he hardly sees the need for such extravagance just because this is where he's stationed. fussy as he can be, he'd rather live as the other soldiers do across the nation and call it fair than have privileges.
after all, he's doing all he can to prove his own worth without that influence, but hubert knows that the wealthy "anonymous" donor and garrett are one and the same. he's sure his higher-ups know that as well.
...he's sure all the soldiers do, really, but he elects to pay little mind to what they say about him and work hard to do things of his own merit whenever possible.]
[...Yeah. He could absolutely see how it would be. But it's pretty obvious that Hubert already knows the reasons why, and Jusis isn't in any grand hurry to try to impress anyone, or anything...so he'll just keep his opinion to himself, nodding simply instead.
He's seen all the ways that those things can be a problem, for the soldiers, for the command, for the people who aren't lucky enough to have better rations--
But.
It's fine. It's not really his place.]
...Regardless. I suppose I had best appreciate this meal, then.
[Good food is good food, even if it's a little troublesome, too.]
Indeed. Troublesome as it may be—it's hardly your burden to bear.
[it's just the way it goes. that burden is hubert's after all. if this ends up being something jusis has to deal with under his own jurisdiction, then perhaps then, he can worry about the troubles that relate to it.
but as it stands, hubert doesn't really see it necessary to let jusis fuss about it. he's a guest, albeit one here to learn. there's no reason for him to worry about those specific politics.]
You're welcome to enjoy the meal wholly; this is likely the most relaxed mealtime you'll have for the next few days.
