Glorified Capitalism.

[Also, he definitely lost a game at the party. 😔]

[alternatives]

oh ( not the response he was expecting, but. you know ) actually that's super fair.

you owe me a new board game.

[dispassioned]

How do you feel about Operation?

[alternatives]

i feel like you have an advantage, which will make it a lot more fun when i win.

[dispassioned]

Is that so?

I'll pick it up from the store on the way home.

[alternatives]

okay (´∀`)

( did he just land 2 separate dates in five minutes tops )

lets stay in tonight, then.

[dispassioned]

[He sure did.]

All right.

[It's not like he was planning on going out anyway, but still.]

I'm sure the community will thank you for keeping a maniac off the street.

[alternatives]

so you admit there was a certain mania to the street fire. i heard someone's house nearly caught fire.

( word of mouth obviously blew it way out of proportion. the housespouses just love to gossip. )

[dispassioned]

It was confined to a metal trash can. The only houses that burned were the little monopoly houses.

[alternatives]

think of the little monopoly families.

[dispassioned]

You mean corporations?

[alternatives]

( SIGH )

only you would say that. pessimist!!

[dispassioned]

[Amused. Though he can't deny it. Still:]

The game is literally called Monopoly.

[alternatives]

little tiny houses implies little tiny families. even in monopolies.

[dispassioned]

Do they, though?

[alternatives]

who else is gonna pay property taxes!!

[dispassioned]

[That actually gets a chuckle out of him. Tragically, this is a text and Arisu can't hear it.]

When are you going to be here with my food?

[alternatives]

noonish. if you're really not busy, i can come sooner and hang out.
someone down the block is having a tupperware party, so. i'm pretty happy to have an excuse to miss it.

[dispassioned]

I'm not busy.

...Tupperware parties really happen?

[alternatives]

i'll head over now then ᕕ(╯°□°)ᕗ

yes, and they're the worst. i can only pretend to be excited about containers for so long.

[dispassioned]

[Well, that sounds like Hell.]

Good. Tell them your husband needed you.

[That way his absence won't seem weird, right.]

[alternatives]

( arisu can't hear chishiya's laugh — chishiya can't see arisu blush. )

oh, they'll love that. we'll be the talk of the tupperware party.

( gossips, all of them. arisu doesn't really mind. it kind of makes him smile, actually.

randomly, )

you like cream in your coffee, right?

[dispassioned]

Sometimes. It depends on the coffee. Why?

[alternatives]

i'm picking some up.
donuts or cookies?

[dispassioned]

[immediately and without hesitation.]

Cookies.
