[Brat.]

That's impossible. I'm not human.

[But he has been having to brush his hair out of his face more...]

[book2thehead]

[Guilty as charged!]

That may be so, but it's definitely longer than it was when I fell asleep.

[Don't mind him playing with it a little while he talks, head tilting thoughtfully.]

[threebetrayals]

It hasn't grown in five hundred years. There's no way it grew in a month!

[He will let this happen because he is too focused on this conversation to care about Heizou playing with his hair.]

[book2thehead]

[Just as planned-

He tugs on a little tuft of hair with a chuckle.]

No? So it hasn't been bothering you lately? It's much more in your eyes now.

[threebetrayals]

[That gets him to swat Heizou's hand. No tugging!]

It's just how I've been styling it.

[He thought.]

[book2thehead]

[He looks amused by the hand swat, but instead of pulling his hand back he lets his fingers drift toward the hair curling at the nape of Wanderer's neck.]

Oh? But it's longer back here, too. You may even need to tie it soon~

[threebetrayals]

There's no way.

[But he reaches around behind to feel, just to make sure.]

[book2thehead]

[He chuckles a little, finally withdrawing his hand and going back to his soup while Wanderer checks for himself.]

It's not a bad thing, you know. But we can always cut it back down, if you want.

[threebetrayals]

If it's growing...I'll think about it.

[He doesn't want to look like that woman, after all.]

[book2thehead]

[His smile doesn't even waver.]

Maybe I've been hanging out with Venti too much, but... if it's growing- [Which it is, but okay Wanderer.] -I feel like I wanna play with it~

[threebetrayals]

[A Look.]

What.

[book2thehead]

[He gives Wanderer his best puppy eyes over the rim of his soup bowl.]

Is that a no?

[threebetrayals]

Why.

[book2thehead]

Because it's so soft and silky~

[threebetrayals]

...it's what?

[book2thehead]

I'm just saying! You have lovely hair, my dear Wanderer.

[threebetrayals]

...it's just hair.

[He says, turning a little pink. Ignore it, please.]

[book2thehead]

[Now why in the world would he ignore that when it's so pretty!]

Does the fact that it's growing bother you?

[Or is it about what that might imply?]

[threebetrayals]

It shouldn't be growing. It can't be growing. I don't even need to breathe, why would my hair be growing?

[So. Yeah, it's about what it might imply.]

[book2thehead]

[Exactly as Heizou thought. He just smiles softly, understanding in his eyes as he sips more of his soup.]

It could have something to do with this being a dream world. Have you noticed anything else unusual about yourself lately?

[threebetrayals]

...just headaches. I get chilled now and then.

[book2thehead]

Headaches? Do you have any idea what causes them?

[threebetrayals]

That woman's presence, at least partially.

[book2thehead]

[He chuckles a little.]

Aside from that, then. Have you been eating and sleeping properly?

[threebetrayals]

As much as I ever do.

[So no, not by human standards.]
