Seph: | I've got something to discuss with you two. |
Feyn: | You've got the details of our FCS order finalised? |
Seph: | Well, not exactly. |
Feyn: | *raises an eyebrow* |
Seph: | Something's come up, and I can't afford both your F17s in December after all. |
Feyn: | *frowns* But you were very sure you could. |
Seph: | Yes, I'd been. Was. |
Feyn: | You went and bought something else, didn't you? |
Seph: | No, I didn't. And that's not a lie. I am very disappointed that I can't your F17s. But I really can't. |
____: | You've never lied. |
Seph: | No, I've never lied. I'd really been sure I could get both your F17s. But the way it is, it looks like I will only be able to get one F17. And we've already said we must get two together. |
Feyn: | Both, or not at all. I've been looking forward to our getting our shells together; I won't have it any other way. |
Seph: | *nods* If we could get the FCS ordered for us in January or February, it wouldn't be such a problem. But we need to be able to afford both in early December. |
Feyn: | What about a loan from someone? |
Seph: | I doubt I can manage that. |
Feyn: | So if we don't get our F17s in December, when will we be able to get them? |
Seph: | I don't know. |
Feyn: | Damn it. |
Seph: | Yeah... |
Feyn: | Get a loan somehow. |
Seph: | Damn it. If I could, I would! |
Feyn: | *glares* |
Seph: | Yeah... So... that's what I wanted to see you two about. |
____: | You will be able to get our F17s though. |
Seph: | *nods* I will be able to. But the exact date is not certain. But next year will be it. |
____: | *amused* No more random toys along the way? |
Seph: | Kaesh was a pretty good investment, don't you think? I'm sure they've told you about him. |
____: | I'm not too sure I can trust the accounts I've heard. |
Seph: | *grin* That's why you should come over and have a look at him. I've learned quite a bit giving him faceups. If I need to give your F17s the "perfect" look, at least I'll know what I'm doing. |
____: | *chuckles* |
Feyn: | So we're not going to have our F17s soon. |
Seph: | Are you really in such a hurry? |
____: | *shakes head* |
Feyn: | *looks at ____ with a bit of irritation* He couldn't care less. |
Seph: | I know. *makes a face* I still remember how eager I was to get an F29 for him, and then having to feel down because he never really was interested. |
Feyn: | Is that why you're not trying hard to get our F17s ordered this December? |
Seph: | Look, I'd said I can't afford it, all right? Unless you want me to just get one F17 first. I can do that. |
Feyn: | *makes an irritated face* No. |
Seph: | Right. |
____: | Was there anything else? |
Seph: | Ah. |
____: | To "discuss"? |
Seph: | Yeah. Well, like I'd said I can get one FCS ordered. |
Feyn: | And you're going to save up and get the other one ordered soon. |
Seph: | The problem is, if we miss the chance to order now, we don't know when else we can order even if we are able to get the money. |
Feyn: | Go on. |
Seph: | We can get one FCS ordered--and I was thinking, we _should_ get it ordered when we can. I don't know anyone else who will be willing to help us order an FCS in Japan once Cassiel leaves. I know I _will_ find someone for your F17s, but right now, since we can at least order one easily... |
Feyn: | Get to the point! |
Seph: | Should we order Variq his FCS? |
Feyn: | . . . |
Seph: | Well, I know he'd never been as enthusiastic about it as you were, but since we can't get two F17s ordered, and I doubt I should get Razkil his new F16 now, Variq's shell is the only one that's not accounted for. |
Feyn: | What about the devil child's Unoa? |
Seph: | An order can be made for one in April. |
Feyn: | And you've got that covered. |
Seph: | Yeah. *grin* Though we'll have to wait a couple of months after we place the order before we can get it. |
Feyn: | Good. I do not want him to get his toy before I get mine. |
Seph: | Er... |
Feyn: | You have a problem with that? |
Seph: | No... I guess. |
Feyn: | *irritated* Go get Variq his shell. But show me the details before you do. |
Seph: | *nods* I'll go now. |
____: | Oh. You have permission to use our funds for Vahri's shell. Only that. |
Seph: | Got it. |
Feyn: | *snorts* |
Seph: | I said I got it. |
