Don't worry. If that's what took you out, then I won't have a bite of anything he makes. Someone's gotta teach him.

[ And that someone might be him, but also. Is Solomon willing to learn... ]

[jokey]

Good luck with that. You better hold his hands through every step, Yamato. Look away for a single second and he'll plant a bomb in the pot.

[dadsandals]

It's that bad, huh? Are you speaking from experience?

[ no one can save them now ]

[jokey]

No.

[Firm no!!]

But I've been thinking about offering him some lessons myself. How about you control the left hand and I take the right? That way there's no possible way he can ruin the dish.

[dadsandals]

I think the two of us might be needed, yeah. Deal, then.

[ He's not expecting this to be a serious thing but haha it probably will be, huh. ]

[jokey]

Shake on it.

[No backing out of this one, Yamato. It's gonna get hairy.]

[dadsandals]

[ SIGH. He considers this, but he ends up extending a hand to firmly shake Akira's. ]

There.

[jokey]

[Akira goes in for the handshake..






...And dabs instead. Gottem.]

It's settled. It might take some wrangling to get that man where we need him, but I'll contact you when it's time to put the plan into motion. Stay strong, Yamato.

[dadsandals]

[ That's all fine and dandy but also. ]

Why do you keep doing that?

[jokey]

Do what? This?

[DABS]

[dadsandals]

Yes.

[ What language are you speaking, little one. ]

[jokey]

Why does anyone do anything?

[So unhelpful... Fine. He'll explain the concept of doing shit just 'cause to poor old grandpa here.]

It's funny, that's why. Catches people off guard too. I bet you didn't notice me sliding your wallet out of your pocket just now, did you?

[dadsandals]

What?

[ He is suddenly going to start checking from his wallet. Did this little punk seriously steal it... ]

[jokey]

Heh.

[Nope! Yamato's wallet is untouched. Akira snickers.]

But you see what I mean now, right? It totally distracted you.

[dadsandals]

...You're a sneaky kid, you know that?

[ Akira is going to give him a headache at this rate. ]

Haha, so you like to do that particular move to distract people. I understand now.

[jokey]

You think you know me, huh?

[Staring deeeeeep into Yamato's eyes...]

The only thing you can expect is the unexpected. If you're easily distracted, you'll get bamboozled every time.
