[Uninvited cheer is one of Jusis' pet peeves. While he's dealt with a lot worse when it comes to people forcing their cheer on him, this doesn't exactly turn his frown upside-down. Luckily, it doesn't make it worse, either.]

Is there an occasion for this?

[He'll at least hold out his hand and take the... thing...]

Though it appears to not be the best made.

[Sorry, Jusis sugar coats nothing.]

[nonono7]

[ 'sall good, it takes more than blunt honesty to make Nono upset! ]

I'm still learning! But paper cranes are supposed to cheer you up.

[ She pauses. ] Did it work?

[dignement]

[Jusis crosses his arms and as single word is said every so bluntly:]

No.

[After that, he raises an eyebrow.]

Did you truly think that something such as that-- [He points to... whatever she's holding.] --would suddenly make my experience here better?

[nonono7]

It's true, I need more practice. I'm still not as good as nee-sama.

[ Rather than despondent, she looks determined. ]

I'm sorry. I'll prepare a better one that will definitely cheer you up.

[dignement]

If you make a better one, give it to someone else who will appreciate the sentiment.

[He's trying to be nice? Trying?]

[nonono7]

No! It's no good unless I can make one that moves even your heart!

[ Is she implying u have no heart? Possibly. She doesn't mean it tho. ]

[dignement]

[It's okay, a lot of people have implied that he has no heart. It's nothing new and nothing he takes personally.]

I don't believe that's a feat that can be obtained, so it's best to know when something is not possible and just move on.

[nonono7]

Right!

So I will keep trying! [ Nono that is the exact opposite of what he suggested. ]

[dignement]

I believe I have been attempting to tell you not to try.

[So he will correct her. He's used to these types. She's not as bad as Millium so he can deal...]

[nonono7]

We have all the time in the world. I'm sure I'll be good enough one day.

[ And thus, Nono adds another item to her internal checklist of goals.

□ Become a space pilot
□ Watch skylarks on Earth
□ Reunite with onee-sama
□ Make a paper crane for her new friend that will cheer him up ]

[dignement]

Save yourself the grief. I don't need it.

[There's a mild annoyance in his voice, but nothing to make him lose his cool. Really, he wonders why this girl has decided to latch on to him when he shows such obvious disinterest.]

[nonono7]

You're... Jusis, right? The ship's.... [ She trails off here. She has no idea what he does on the ship. ]

....guy!

same person new journal

[noblesce]

Who I am on this ship is of no concern to you. Simply calling me 'Jusis' is fine enough with me. I have no need for titles.

[He didn't ask for the noble life okay and he has about 10000 issues with it.]

[nonono7]

No, let me guess!

You're.... our pilot!

[ He looks like a pilot, okay. ]
