"I told you, I'm not going to lie to you..."

Alex was trying not to blush himself.

"Guess you don't hear that a lot?"

Ume Satou 📿 佐藤梅 @virtuousinsect.bsky.social · 20m

“Eh—? Really?”

His grin immediately disappeared and was replaced with a rather embarrassed looking expression.

“…Thank you?” he gave an awkward laugh. “I wasn’t expecting that answer.”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 24m

"..."

He already pretty much promised not to lie to Ume...

"Yes..."

Ume Satou 📿 佐藤梅 @virtuousinsect.bsky.social · 27m

“Monkeys are cute— do you think I’m cute?” he teased, linking his fingers together and placing them underneath his chin with a shit eating grin.

He doesn’t expect an actual answer. He’s fully expecting to be told to shut up.

"...I've heard some can do some real if you taunt them so maybe."

“Hmm… I am quite fond of monkeys, so maybe that’s a mammal I could be?”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 40m

"Ah. That's true. I was thinking mammals but you have a point."

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 40m

"Ah. That's true. I was thinking mammals but you have a point."

Ume Satou 📿 佐藤梅 @virtuousinsect.bsky.social · 41m

Ume snorted.

“I am already a praying mantis mixed with a locust. So, that’s your answer.”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 45m

Ah. A little too slow to mess with him. The former demigod was still blushing, though.

"I wonder what you'd be, then? Probably something that looks more innocent but you don't want to mess with..."

Forgetting Ume is an insect...

“Ehhh? You really 𝙖𝙧𝙚 a snapping turtle…”

He wiggled his fingers near his face to mess with him before quickly retracting them before he could even think about potentially biting him.

“I’ll put you in an enclosure and take good care of you, my dear pet turtle.” he laughed.

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 56m

"You did phrase it as a compliment..."

His face was flushing trying to ignore it.

"...Maybe I will."

“Ha.. What are you thanking me for? All I did was call you a snapping turtle.”

He reached over to poke at his cheek with his index finger, a grin on his face.

Touchy and annoying...

“Ah. You’re not gonna bite me for touching you, are you?” he teased.

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 1h

Cute? Damn it...he had to stop getting flustered...

"I...thank you."

Ume shook his head.

“No, because they’re cute, but aggressive and powerful.”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 1h

He blinked before bursting out laughing.

"Because I know how to use a sword?"

“That’s good—“

He can’t get the dumb mental image out of his head long enough to stop laughing at it.

“Aaaha… I guess it’s related, but I feel like you’d be a snapping turtle.” he nodded in agreement with himself.

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 1h

Yeah...the color didn't help and now he was embarrassed.

"Thankfully, I taught myself to never let that happen..."

Ume turned his head to the side and laughed.

“Sorry, sorry— I imagined you in your armor stuck on your back like a turtle. It’s even green like one!”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 1h

"It's more about the armor. Think of how vulnerable you'd be and how hard it would be to get back up if you fell in it. And you want to put force behind a swing. You have to shift your weight so you don't stumble into the swing."

“Even if I can use a nagamaki, I don’t think I’ve ever taken notice to a need for balance… But then again, you tend to not notice certain things after doing them so long. It’s slipped my mind.”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 2h

"I guess it's fair for a world with no more need for armor and sword fighting to forget the skills needed for that. Besides the obvious of hold the sword by the handle and aiming it."

He opened his mouth to say something, but quickly shut it.

Ume is 𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙗𝙡𝙮 perplexed by the concept of a place with no bicycles.

“… Let’s hope you have a good sense of balance, then.”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 2h

"My universe may not have these bicycles but I'm fair from a child. I doubt I'll need them."

“Well… I still look forward to seeing if you’ll end up caving to training wheels like a child.” he laughed.

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 2h

Such a small thing! Why did Ume calling him sweet so casually flustering him?

"Least I could say..."

“No, not at all. It was sweet.”

"Why lie to someone who has given me so much? I would owe you that."

“I understand this is a hypothetical scenario, but why me as the only one?” he asked, raising a brow.

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 3h

"I swear it. Besides, if there was only one person I'd be honest with, it would be you."

Ume hummed, his grin never faltering.

“Fair point, I will admit. Then, I should have no issue trusting you?”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 3h

That made Alexander laugh again.

"You think I'll lie and taint my honor as a former warrior?"

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 3h

Ume Satou 📿 佐藤梅 @virtuousinsect.bsky.social · 5h

Ume isn’t confident that Alexander will really need them, he just likes to be an asshole.

“Wonderful! Hopefully you do not lie to me about it, either. Lying is a sin, you know~?”

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 5h

"Deal."

Alex would joke about the small amount but he was just a priest in training.

"Want to bet I don't need them?"

He chuckled softly.

“Haha—. If you insist.” he waved a hand dismissively, a grin on his face.

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 17h

Now Alex was the one showing pride.

"I don't think I need help learning to ride something."

"...I think I felt that earlier. Just like I do at the shrine. A strange sense of peace that makes me forget any worries of fatigue."

Saffire Ryuuzaki 🍵 @digitalmutantxv.bsky.social · 2d

"And that matters the most, it's what keeps my regulars coming back! Most people feel that Master Yamato's tea helps rejuvenate their mind and bodies better than most substances humans may consume--digimon for that matter as well.

I believe it after trying it myself."

Alexander Olivieri @alexsonofthesun.bsky.social · 2d

"Agreed. This place may be getting customers from feeling traditional but it still wouldn't be doing well if the tea wasn't also brewed not just traditionally but with care."

He couldn't help a huff at that.
