>a small number multiplied by infinite is still infinite.
In case you haven’t noticed, food supplies aren’t infinite. Even if I never got this power, eventually we’d be running out of food to feed everyone and then things would be even worse then they are now.

That doesn’t sound like a good thing if you ask me.

>I don't have anyone special like that.
Alone on Valentines? That doesn’t sound right. You should try to be more open and maybe you’ll find someone special.

"Want to find someone?"
>"What am I going to do, go to some club and just find some guy?" Phantom asks.
"Why not?"
>"I don't like clubs."
"There's other places!"
>"I don't like going to 'places' just to meet someone."
>"Hey, you came here to meet Delli." says Pillet.
>"Not for that!"
"It could be for that if you wanted. Just, you know, chill with someone else for a day. Pretty sure being someone's valentine isn't like wedding vows. Is it? Not anymore it's not, that's my first decree."
>"Are you..." Phantom blinks at me. "Are you asking me out?"
"I'm uh... I'm... not not asking you out?"
>"You've destroyed so much of mine."
"I'm not trying to make you suffer over it!"
>"That's an obvious side effect. Besides, you're with Pillet!"

Pillet faces me.

>"Hey Delli."
"Yeahhh?"
>"I'm breaking up with you."
"Uh"
>"Let's go out again starting tomorrow."

... so she was my girlfriend!

>"Come on Soletta, let's leave these two alone!"

They rush out of the room still dripping, leaving Phantom and me just... here.

So whats your favorite book?

>>921987
"...Sup?"

>>921976
Successful tyranny takes effort, personality and manpower. We severely lack all three and getting them means we'd be absolutely no better than the gang leaders we trashed last month.

>>921987
Well. You're both reasonable people so set aside your ideological differences for a while. Ask if she's got any hobbies.

'scuse me i'm just feeling a little heartbroken

>>921987
touch fluffy ear

Take a deep breath and tell her to process situation. One day out of eternity is not going to be an issue, right?. So why not just have some fun. For one day.

>>921987
"well since we got a whole day to ourselves... what do u want to do?"

What does she like to do for fun on her spare bathtime?

>>921987

Could like, just be friends.

>>921987
your ears are pretty great.

>>921987
Uh. So no pressure, but will she be our valentine? She's cute and seems like a good person. Which... that's not low standards is it? Not that it takes low standards to like Phantom! Uh. Yeah.

>>922000

"Sup?"
>"Hi."
"What's your favorite book?"
>"Dynastic Towers, by Van Quela."
"I've heard about that one."
>"Have you read it?"
"Nope."
>"Oh."

>"You should."
"Isn't that a textbook?"
>"No. It's a retelling of town history."
"Cool. So what're your hobbies?"
>"I like to sing.

>"Yours?"
"I used to spar vending machines. I need a new hobby."
>"You look like someone who would enjoy fishing."
"Aren't the only good fishing spots owned by - oh, haha, nevermind. Hey this is gonna come off as weird, but..."
>"Not as weird as this entire time has been."
"Can I touch your ear."
>"I stand corrected. I don't know. This is weird."
"You don't have to. But hey, then you can say you had a good Valentine's Day, uh, maybe? Could just be friends, I dunno."
>"Am I supposed to act like we're not rivals? That you weren't complicit in turning over all the work I've done across the years?"

"If you agree to be my valentine we have an excuse to eat lots of chocolate."

People didn't like being bossed around by gangs anyway. If she wants to be in charge of things again she can get voted into office. It's a democracy now.

"who said we had to hate each other? we could just me frenemies."
Also try the swishing eye thing to see her reaction.

>"Am I supposed to act like we're not rivals? That you weren't complicit in turning over all the work I've done across the years?"
Hey, it's not like that's one way. I'm acting like you didn't try your hardest to kill me, and I didn't have to put up with all the gang stuff over me.

>>922003
rival doesn't mean enemy just someone you compete with, like yeah we are working towards opposite goals right now doesn't mean we can't eat chocolate and get drunk and do stupid stuff.

I was a innocent bystander who got hit with a big ball of energy. Then everyone panicked and sent hitman after me and then killed my girlfriend.

I just fought back and managed to win.

So no we are not rivals. I was not fighting with you before I got this power and I don't plan on doing it unless you want to start the fight again.

Just cause I like Pillet does not mean we are joined at the hip. I want to give people a choice and would like to see if that option even exists. That locked room could have nothing to do with the haze and the only thing keeping us from it is our fear of each other.

>>922003
"Look, I had like... an hour to think about ever making a difference while everyone tried to kill me, so I'm pretty meh on the rival stuff."

You can disagree with someone and still like them as a person.

Yeah we are not Rivals. All that mess happened over a single crazy day and I am still trying to figure how it all worked out.

I got the power and then waited around for a month so everyone could come back to life and here we are. I don't want to be rivals with anyone and am perfectly willing to listen to any thoughts you have.

But its valentines and I am not going to talk about work until tomorrow. So how did you manage to become the leader of a big gang? That is way more work than I would be willing to put up with.

"Am I even I rival? All I did was fight back, then my girlfriend got killed and I kept fighting back."
>"You don't have to intentionally become a rival to be one."
"And a rival doesn't mean I have to be an enemy! I'm looking past how all the gangs tried to kill me, so..."

I dip my head to see if she notices my eyes go horizontal, then I remember she's buddies with 90 degree flipping goat, so this is probably way less impressive.

She dips her head forward back at me.

>"Okay. Touch it."
"Really?"
>"You're right, we did try to kill you before talking. It backfired. Besides, you could touch it if you really wanted to. The fact you're asking... it makes me more okay with it."

I touch fluffy ear. I don't even know if there's an ear under this, it's like one hundred percent condensed fluff.

"Frenemies, maybe?"
>"We don't need to label our relationship. We barely know each other. If we're going to even try to be diplomatic with each other in the future, then today... will it be enough to just spend today just getting to know each other better?"

Sounds like a plan.

So how did you get started as a gang leader anyway? Or at least how did you keep going if you don't remember that far back.

>>922017
thats cool. Your ear is amazing by the way

>>922017
The way she phrased that still sounds like you're forcing her. Makes me feel kinda guilty.

Also, I'm not sure Phantom really gets what's going on with Pillet. Like, Pillet kept saying "keep your enemies close" right? She definitely likes Delli, but that doesn't mean he's not a potential enemy. Pillet is a true believer, and let's face it Delli kinda isn't. Phantom either missed that or she's acting like she did really well.

Also also, Delli how's your speedo situation? You were messing around with Pillet, then putting your hands all over Soletta, and now you're touching fluffy ears.

>>922017
"sounds fine by me. Now should we continue our talk in the tub? or go somewhere?"

Touch her cheek, see if it's pure fluff like the rest of her.

>How's speedo?
It's there and intact and snug. The mood's not great and the jets don't let me see anything below the water, so I'm thinking it's going to stay that way..

"That's a plan to me. Your ear's great by the way."
>"Thank you."
"Uh... I asked, but is it really okay? I just realized it sounds like I might be forcing it. I mean if a gang lord a month ago asked to rub someone's ear, the person's gonna say yes whether they want ear rubs or not. 'Cause of what'll happen if they say no."
>"This isn't like that, and I don't think you're like that. This is fine. Keep going."
"Can you tell me how you became a gang leader? Or how you stayed that way?"
>"It's a very long story, because it took me a very long time."
"I have all day."

It really is a long story, but it's pretty interesting. Then she pries about my own life.

Pretty soon we're comparing lives spent basically at polar opposites, from the bottom of the barrel to the top, versus how it was years ago.

I can think of a lot worse days than this one. Come to think of it, I don't recall any better days.

"So is the rest of you as fluffy as your ear? Like your cheek?"
>"No, I don't think it is. If things get better between us, maybe you can tell me if it is. It's getting late. I'd better go home."

Do you want a escort for safety?

I had a good time tonight. Want to do this again sometime?

>>922031
>It's getting late. I'd better go home.
Want me to fly you home? Your escort will have to follow us on the ground, since I don’t think I can carry all of them.

>>922033
Also let her take a box of chocolates home with her.

>>922031
Does she want to get, like, flown? It's probably a bummer to not be able to do things like fly after so long.

>>922031
alright see you later then. I should go hunt down my Ex before Shelott gets thrown off a building in a chocolate heist

>>922031

Good, we managed to go a whole day without killing anyone. I’d call that a win! And I’m glad Phantom is at least willing to be open for future meetings.

Now all that’s left is for Delli to get back together with Pillet tomorrow so he can be her boyfriend again! But that’s an adventure for a different thread.

>>921970

The first dinner was supposed to be the movie, but typing fart happened.
