@wealthonous ... No. I will not share that descriptor, not even with my younger "self".
"He" started to become a refined gentleman when he crossed the age 50.
(is he being petty, wow, some emotion from this old man)
@Segment_8 That may be so. Heh.
But it IS quite tasty isn't it? Perfectly altered the plant-like taste.
Here, take more. Isn't this better
than if you were forced to eat a leaf in its usual state in a soup?
@Segment_8 Fufu~
... Oh not to worry, they were perfectly edible ingredients, I'm not 35.
Spinach and beets.
Isn't the flavor carefully concealed, haha!
(leans his head more towards the touch, as if nuzzling in to it)
It's just that I know "myself" so it's easy
to predict.
And to "us" you and everything you do are anything but
a "minor issue".
[ the banker chuckled, running gloved fingers through his hair ]
Your younger fight amongst themselves over every minor issue. They needn’t fight over my attention too. How wise you are in your old age.
(Oh head pats? He'll take that. He even took off his hat, turning and leaning his head towards the banker to receive it)
Hmp. No need to worry about inflating anyone's ego, rather,
worry about how each of them will display jealousy of "themselves".
Quite a sight.
[ he is reaching up to pet him— two grown men ]
Well, there are many things I could say I appreciate about you. Things I will not say in front of the younger ones, in fear of inflating their egos. ^^
@puerarcani The elder watched as "his" younger "self" slowly drifted away from consciousness, careful not to disturb the fragile tranquility.
Perhaps the younger one had a full day of activities catching up on him causing fatigue, or maybe the coat was just too warm and soft.
