it's like a quarter life crisis

Why are so many of you so young? I'm not the only one at a more mature age, am I? Is anyone over 20? I'm getting wrinkles just thinking about this.

[He's just 25 but if he has one more person tell him they're too young to drink when he thought they were older... his heart can't take it.]

I don't know what you mean. Don't let me irritate you, or your nerves might keep you up at night.

[lecturehall]

Don't flatter yourself. I have my own ways to tire myself out for that very reason.

[Although they haven't really been working lately.]

[razzledazzles]

Oh, really? Like what? Do you run in circles?

[lecturehall]

No. Contrary to popular thought, the adrenaline caused by exercise stimulates more than exhausts. It's more effective in staying awake.

Depending on the situation, my common methods are:

1. Submerging my face in cold water
2. Listening to traditional music or chants
3. Acupuncture techniques to release points of tension

Sometimes I use lavender as well, although burning incense is more of a danger than a help. It's an easy way to start fires so I try to stay away from it.

[razzledazzles]

Oh. Two out of three of those seem dangerous to fall asleep during... Are you sure that's alright? Please don't drown yourself.

[lecturehall]

I'd never be so reckless. The submersion only lasts thirty seconds. I set a timer. It triggers a reaction which lowers your heart rate and blood pressure.

I'm guessing the second is acupuncture? I suppose that would be alarming. Sorry, I think I phrased it wrong. Acupressure is what I should have said. It diverged from acupuncture so I must have mixed up the words. It's a fatal flaw.

Anyway, it's just massaging pressure points on the body. For sleeping I either massage my ears or press between my eyes. You should try it sometime. There are two others with feet.

[razzledazzles]

You have this so planned out it's almost scary. Massages sound a bit better, at least... Where on my ears should I massage? Maybe I should have someone else help me.

[He's just trying to throw in jokes because Keito is too cute and pure for him to handle.]

[lecturehall]

Just the full thing. The base where the ear meets the head works best for me. That one's simple enough that you should be able to do it on your own.

If you really wanted to, I guess you could have someone touch your ears.

[freak]

[razzledazzles]

[Next plan for harassment: this.]

What a sensitive spot that must be. Where else? Between the eyes? Is that why you're always touching at your glasses?

[lecturehall]

No, I touch my glasses because these are my spares. I need to get them properly adjusted.

It's around where the glasses sit, though. You know the space between your eyes where the bridge of the nose goes flat? It's there.

If you're really that interested in it I can show you some simple massage techniques before the movie. You'd have to come earlier though. I have to keep to my regimen.

[razzledazzles]

To be honest, I'm a little skeptical at you offering that after how much you scolded me the first time we met.

[Wasn't he called pervert a handful of times? Or was that just assumed between the yelling? Either way, he can figure it out himself!!]

I don't need to waste so much of your time.

[lecturehall]

I don't see how the two correlate.

Explain.

[because he knows you're thinking something dirty, jae-ha. confess your sins and face punishment.]

[razzledazzles]

Pass.

[He's saying nothing. #JaeHaDidNothingWrong2k16.]

[lecturehall]

Don't make me call your god.

Or, better yet, your friend with the big hand. I'm sure he'd be excellent at ear massages.

[razzledazzles]

Now, now, we don't need to bring his hand into this. Or my ears, for that matter.

[lecturehall]

There will be plenty of reason if you keep silent.

[razzledazzles]

[WHAT DOES HE DO...]

This really isn't an issue...

[lecturehall]

It is to me. I don't want to be compared to a masochistic pervert like you.

[razzledazzles]

For someone so young, you're so mean, Keito...

[lecturehall]

And for someone so old, Jae-ha, you don't act mature at all. Get sturdier pride.

[razzledazzles]

I'm very mature.

[YOU'RE WRONG] I have plenty of pride. Just enough for it to be beautiful.

[lecturehall]

Yet not enough for you to go wilting at the slightest comment towards your age.

Even as a joke it negates any respectability you may have.

[razzledazzles]

You're so serious, I feel like I'm actually being scolded. Stop that.

[lecturehall]

I've been scolding you this whole time. The fact that you only just noticed only means you have poor comprehension.

[razzledazzles]

If you continue like this, I'll find popcorn with more butter than you asked for.
