Motan tugged at the collar of his spare armor and said helplessly, "Of course, it's not to the point where I have a strong need for fitness. It's just... uh, using the words of those young men and women, maybe it's 'I seem easy to talk to'?"
Little Thorn Wolf raised an eyebrow, "Is it just 'seem' easy to talk to?"
"You could say that."
Motan sighed internally, thinking how speaking with smart people was refreshing, as he firmly yet tactfully said, "Thanks for the invitation, but I'm afraid I have to decline."
Staring into the clear eyes of his counterpart and sensing a certain resolve, Little Thorn Wolf sighed and did not persist like he did with Dayan. Instead, he nodded slightly and said, "Okay, then how about adding as friends?"
"If it's just simply 'being friends,'"
Motan chuckled and nodded.
"You won."
