Rating/Warnings: none..?
Summary: belphegor losing a bet = no stabbing & food shopping! (at least for the month )...

[ feferi didn't find it very surprising that belphegor had lost their bet! however, that certainly won't stop her from feeling a hint of satisfaction. he did seem like a dangerous person, so getting free food while knowing that he can't stab her? sounds good to her even if she thought it was silly at first.

so now, headed toward the seafood aisle they're shopping for her food. this was an advantage she will have to take while gathering more joypoints for later use. she wasn't sure about how she felt about bel just yet, because the self proclaimed prince did remind her of someone she used to know...

well, no need to ponder about useless things now.

she'll do her best to get along with him, being roommates and all. ]

C'mon, you slow seahorse. The sooner we get what I want the better right?

[ she grins, not actually thinking for him or what he wants, but it was a thought. ]

Comments

[ushishishi]

[He hadn't planned on telling her, or even reminding her that the little bet was made, much less that he had lost. Sure, they were able to be threatened to be his "friend" when there was a knife at their throat, but when they were behind a network suddenly they seemed to get a lot braver about their real opinions.]

[He'd blame it on timing, of course, but the bet was still lost. The only saving grace to this was that she wasn't a common peasant.]

[Scowling and slumping as he walked the aisles, he didn't look like the normal, manically grinning prince he usually presented himself as. Instead, he looked like a pouty child.]

Just bring what you want to the prince. I don't know what an alien would like to eat.

[Someone is just a bit butthurt]

[terribubble]

What's with so many things in a can anyways? You can't even see what's inside it! Like the tuna.

[ ignoring the alien comment she smiles on until she starts asking about the cans. she still doesn't understand canned food because it just doesn't seem real to her.

bottom line is, it sounds fishy. ]

You shouldn't pout like that, it'll ruin the mood! [ haha, well okay maybe she doesn't care. ] Do you think think they sell whale blubber here?

[ushishishi]

The cans are for peasants who can't afford the real thing.

[Never mind that he was...a bit poor here. In his head he was calculating the cheapest meal plan he could put this girl on for the month as he looked at all the cans and pouches of various types of fish.]

[....Mammon was having too much of an influence on him.]

What mood? Grocery shopping is hardly any fun.

[Stopping from his shuffling walk, he gives her a look- well, what one could assume to be a look under all that hair.]

'shishishi! That expensive of a taste, mm? I don't see any oceans around here to get it.

[terribubble]

Sounds like you can certainly afford expensive things if you're shunning cans, Mister Prince.

[ teasing. ]

I guess I can pick something else. Any recommendations? Nothing stupid or crappie.

[ushishishi]

Of course I can. Just not for others, no ♪

[hypocrite. at least he looks a bit less pouty now?]

'shishishi! Fatty tuna, but only if it's fresh. Salmon and trout are acceptable as well, or swordfish.

[terribubble]

Then I say I'll have to get two of each! We'll have to rotate it out for everyday of the week you know, or else it'll just be boring to eat.

[ jeez, she's gonna ignore that first response. ]

I guess I'd want to try some land food too.

[ushishishi]

Maybe shark would good as well, shishi!

[If not for his own amusement.]

Land food? Are you like a mermaid that's never been out of the ocean before?

[terribubble]

Not exactly, I just didn't have that much of a chance I guess.

[ she was going to ask what a mermaid was but she figured it out. ]

[ushishishi]

Ah? What were you doing instead?

[He's picking up a can of tuna, wondering if he could pry it open with a knife quick enough without those damn storekeepers noticing...]

[terribubble]

Feeding my lusus... I had to keep her quiet so she doesn't kill the whole troll race!

[ she smiles as if it was a fond memory. ]

But that doesn't take too long, so I was moistly just glubbing around! [ and you know, avoiding assassination attempts. that, or fighting them off. she doesn't really notice what he's doing, staring into the aisle to see what else they had around here. ]

[ushishishi]

Ushishishi! [That gets a laugh out of him- he finds it hilarious. Ah, it's just like home for him as well.]

Sounds like Boss, 'cept we didn't stop him all the time.

[He didn't know what a "lusus" was, but maybe it was something like a boss if she was so indebted to it.]

Shouldn't an empress do something more productive? [Screwing the rules, he pops open the can with a knife and lets her look around- of course, the can would just be added to the total.]

[terribubble]

Sounds pretty productive to me! And unlike your "Boss" she can do it with one little peep of a noise!

[ >8( ]

... Do you always laugh like that?

[ushishishi]

Ah? Boss is pretty powerful, one noise out of him and many people die. What is this "lusus", then?

[Scooping out the tuna with a knife and eating it. LIKE A PRINCE.]

'shishi~! Does it bother you? [Because if it does he's going to keep doing it.]

[terribubble]

It sounds stupid.

[ blunt. ]

And a lusus is like what you would call a human guardian! Expect they're usually just different creatures that take care of you. Mine was Gl'bgolyb, and she was really big and would protect me from other trolls.

[ushishishi]

Too bad, it's the prince's laugh. Ushishishi!

[That "ushishishi" was definitely emphasized for annoying's sake.]

[....Ok this whole troll alien thing did seem like something from Fran's imagination. He wasn't even going to try to pronounce that.]

[Munching on the tuna a bit before answering.]

A guard dog, then~ Are your parents too useless to take care of you or even their kingdom?

[...Never mind that he totally ditched his parents at 8 after he mostly killed his brother. Whoops]

[terribubble]

[ 38/ ]

I said she was like that of a human guardian didn't I? It's the same thing! We don't have things like parents.

[ushishishi]

...

You have to come from somewhere. Unless that thing gave birth to you.

[Then again, he didn't want to go into the deep specifics of troll alien whatever reproduction.]

[Focusing back on the fish, thanks.]

[terribubble]

You mean as a grub? [ right, humans don't do that... humans are weird, whatever.

she also focus' back on the fish until she reaches-- ]

Hey, what's that? [ spoilers: it's sushi. ]

[ushishishi]

[...Maybe this wasn't a conversation he wanted to have around food, he decided.]

[Ooh, Sushi! Bel grins widely- that was his favorite roll after all. He grabbed the package, examining it closely.]

Sushi~ The prince's favorite.

[Handing to it her.]

You should get some. It's only the best~ [And you should totally share y/n]
