You've done well and have worked hard. It is fine to relax a little as well.

[immobileyes]

...

It is? [ BUT YOU'RE ALWAYS SO STIFF. ]

[deontology]

It is.

[you don't have to follow his example!!]

Particularly in a situation like this.

[immobileyes]

You... don't look very relaxed at all, though.

[deontology]

[... ????]

The topic at hand has nothing to do with me.

You do not have to emulate me.

[immobileyes]

But I thought everyone was supposed to have fun at parties. That... that means you too, right?

[deontology]

["everyone".... sweet summer child...]

... You don't have to concern yourself over whether or not I'm having fun, Kozakura.

[immobileyes]

... Does that mean you're really not?

[ Too late. ]

[deontology]

[...ah..........]

...Not as such, no. I don't enjoy gatherings like these.

[immobileyes]

Um... then why did you come?

[deontology]

...It was insisted upon.

[In other words he couldn't say no.]

[immobileyes]

Aniki did...?

[ inwardly GJ. ]

[deontology]

No. Tenka does not like parties any more than I do.

[sorry to crush your dreams]

[immobileyes]

O-oh. [ She's considering drooping, but-- ] Then who...?

[deontology]

[....well.]

A friend. [thanks Yang. but at least he'll admit it?]

Don't worry about it, Kozakura. My enjoyment should not influence yours.

[immobileyes]

You're supposed to worry about friends.

[ Duh, Sousei. ]

[deontology]

[what.

did he obtain another friend here

shit.]

... ah. [??] I see. Regardless, there's no reason for you to not enjoy the party.

[immobileyes]

... I can try...

[ If Sousei's here and not even wanting to be, she can try!! ]

[deontology]

... I imagine that is all anyone could ask.

[This is getting awkward for him, he doesn't know how to talk about things like this with people like Mary.....]

I will leave you to that, then. [now that she's...safe and all....]
