So... this banquet thing. Is it mandatory? Because I honestly can't think of anything I'd rather do less than put on uncomfortable clothes and be in a big crowd of people I don't know all night. Anybody want to have an anti-banquet where we sit around and watch sentai shows or giant robot anime or play video games instead? Can that be a thing?

You just used so many words I don't know. Can you explain the following?
- sentai shows
- giant robot anime
- play video games
- a thing

Sentai: A genre of Japanese live action television featuring teams of three to five color-coded costumed superheroes who often pilot robotic vehicles.

Giant Robot Anime: A genre of Japanese animated television centering on humanoid robots piloted by people. The robots vary in size and shape, but are nearly always much larger than the humans themselves.

Play Video Games: Video games are an electronic amusement involving direct interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device such as a television or computer monitor.

A Thing: In this context, it is meant to imply that this is something I want to do instead of the party.

[It's a complete nonsequitor but the number of times she just used 'robot' has his brain on a completely different tangent.]

So... do you know Keith at all?

[all_seeing_eye]

Keith? Yeah, how'd you know?

[handsome_genius]

He's the only other person who's talked to me about robots.

[all_seeing_eye]

I guess that makes sense. His robot is pretty cool.

[handsome_genius]

Is his robot... really normal? Or advanced?

[all_seeing_eye]

It's definitely more advanced than anything I've ever seen.

[handsome_genius]

Well that makes me feel a little bit better about not understanding how it works.

[Still annoying to someone like him who's used to figuring such things out.]

[all_seeing_eye]

It's okay, even Keith doesn't know everything about how it works.

[handsome_genius]

Well yeah... because it was Lance's first.

[all_seeing_eye]

Lance? Who's that?

[handsome_genius]

Keith and I's god - but he disappeared.

[all_seeing_eye]

Well, Keith's taken care of... did you find somebody new?

[handsome_genius]

Yeah, you could say that.

[Someone 'old' really, but he knows what she means.]

But that's where it came from.

[all_seeing_eye]

Huh. Weird. Keith's definitely the red guy.

[handsome_genius]

The red guy? No I'm pretty sure his hair was black the last time I saw him.

[all_seeing_eye]

Oh, yeah, never mind that. It's not important.

[handsome_genius]

Oh come on, that doesn't make any sense! You wouldn't have brought it up if it wasn't important!

[all_seeing_eye]

Well... it's more like it won't make sense right away, and the explanation probably won't be worth it.

[handsome_genius]

[ He sighs loudly. ]

... Fine.

[ But he's not happy about it. Since it sounds to him like she thinks he's not smart enough to get it. ]
