[It's hot. There's more to the day, yes, but it's hot. That's all Wanderer really cares about, especially since it's so hot his flying kitten is still asleep in his house and not perched on his hat.

Wanderer really, really hates the heat. He hates the cold too, but for some reason the heat is making him cranky. Why couldn't his creator have thought to put in a cooling system of some sort? No, he doesn't want to sweat, but it would be nice to be able to be cool in this gross heat!

He's sitting under a tree by the lake, trying to cool off and debating if he really wants to stick his feet in the lake. It's tempting.]

Comments

[book2thehead]

Aw, I think I'd be sad if you stopped fighting me~

[Even though he does like being right. And winning as a consequence of that.]

[threebetrayals]

Because you also hate being bored?

[book2thehead]

Whoops, I guess I really am predictable!

[threebetrayals]

[A shrug.]

I rest my case. Humans are predictable.

[book2thehead]

I'll have to keep looking for ways to surprise you, then~

[threebetrayals]

You can certainly try.

[Where is this apartment?]

[book2thehead]

[Heizou chuckles softly, giving Wanderer a fond look before quickening his pace.]

Almost there, by the way. Just around the corner here and up to the second floor!

[threebetrayals]

A high floor. I knew it.

[Smug little shit. Ignoring the weird fondness in that look yep/]

[book2thehead]

[That-- actually kind of cracks him up a little.]

I guess we anemo holders just like to have a nice view.

[And since they're all so short---]

[threebetrayals]

Or we simply like being tall?

[book2thehead]

[Heizou raises one finger as he rounds that corner, like he's using it to make his point.]

Or we wish we were tall~

[threebetrayals]

You might. I've never had an issue with my size, thank you.

[book2thehead]

[He chuckles softly.]

Neither have I! But I've noticed most people my age do.

[threebetrayals]

And how old are you?

[book2thehead]

I'll be turning 21 later this month, as a matter of fact! Man alive, time really flies, doesn't it?

[threebetrayals]

I'll have to take your word on that.

[Since. Immortal.]

When you don't age, every year feels the same.

[book2thehead]

Maybe we can find something fun and new to do on your next birthday, then~

[And here's the door to Heizou's building. Don't mind him while he gets it open and starts to lead the way up the stairs.]

[threebetrayals]

That would require you or anyone else to know when that is.

[Following! And looking around.]

[book2thehead]

[It's a pretty simple building so far. There aren't a lot of doors either, so Heizou doesn't have a lot of neighbors. If any.]

Oh? Not in a sharing mood?

[threebetrayals]

Absolutely not~

[Also the only reason he himself even knows it is Nahida found it and told him what day it was.]

[book2thehead]

[He pauses at the landing to the second floor, just to look over at him and give him another one of those critical, studious looks.]

Hmm... If we go with astrological stereotypes, I'd guess it's either in November or January.

[threebetrayals]

[That just gets him a Look]

What stereotypes? And why?

[book2thehead]

[Heizou gives him a cheeky little grin as he goes toward his door.]

Not familiar with the zodiac? I thought there was a whole school of thought dedicated to the study of the stars and their associated meanings at the Akademiya.

[threebetrayals]

I'm not a student at the Akademiya.

[Yet.]

And the stars are fake, anyway.

[book2thehead]

I never said you were!

[Yet indeed.]

You sound pretty sure of that. What evidence do you have?
