Do you get a lot of people that think they're bugs? That sounds annoying.

I know. I've been there.

[does that sound weird? That sounds weird]

My uncle lives in Morioh. Who's younger than you, mind you. That's part of why I was there.

[hierophany]

[...it sounds weird. ]

I didn’t know that your father’s family lived so close. He must have really dodged a bullet there, gossip about a local musician making it big usually spreads like wildfire in a small town like that.

[ GOOD GUESS, BUT NO. ]

[oraorarush]

[A LOGICAL GUESS]

Hah. My father's from Tokyo, no siblings. But that's the assumption I would make, too.

He's gramps' kid.

I see.

[oraorarush]

[this is the reaction he expected]

Yeah.

Anyway. Morioh's beaches were nice.

A lot of people do seem to think that snails are bugs. I met someone once who didn't like the idea of escargot, because they said they didn't want to put insects in their mouth. And yet they were wearing lipstick! They thought that snails are bugs and that beetles aren't!

[ Is this dodging the subject no not at all they're talking about snails and beaches. ]

[oraorarush]

[this isn't dodging at all this is what they were talking about and not anything else]

I guess they don't know what carmine is. Or what half the shit they put in beauty products are. But most people don't know the difference between insects and bugs so I'm not really surprised.

[hierophany]

I concede. Point well made - they’re not bugs either. But beetles are at least in the same class as bugs.

I never really spent much time on the beaches, back home. If you’ve been near them any amount of time, it’s probably been longer than me.

[oraorarush]

They are. But I wasn't trying to make a point. If still you want to concede, though, I'll take it.

Ah. My thesis is on a species of starfish found in Morioh, so a lot of my free time went to that. I probably ended up there more often than I realized. But I went there a few times just because, too.
