19th Combo - [Video]
[There's a huge grin on Lloyd's face, the kind of grin you only give when you're pleased and excited and everything is right in the world, or when something amazing is happening.]
Hey, everyone! Guess who's officially an adult today!
[That's right, it's his birthday - or the one that he and Dirk celebrate. The only one he's ever known, so the only one that counts as far as he's concerned.]
Oh, yeah, by the way, Kanaya, I finished that necklace for you! When do you wanna meet up?
[He... hasn't realized yet that Kanaya is gone. Late with your gifts again, Lloyd. Always late. :/ ]
But man, I've been looking forward to this birthday so much! Now that I'm eighteen, I don't have to go back to school!

What kind of job do you think you'd be good at?
no subject
Mm... well, I was working part-time at a convenience store and at a waitress back home. But as for after graduation, Tohru told me once I could be a good model, so I guess I'll try doing that.
no subject
A model? You mean, like a figurine?
[He stares. You've lost him. What kind of job is that?]
no subject
Really? You don't know? You know, like all those people who wear the clothes in advertisements and stuff.

Hmm... you think? I wonder how I'd go about getting started.
[crossing her arms behind her head]
What about you? What sort of job do you want?
no subject
[Nope, he has no idea how the model business works.]
I think I want to build things, or make things, like houses or boats or jewelry. Maybe someday I could even work my way up to armor or weapons, but I don't know if I'll ever be strong enough for that.
no subject
[don't worry, neither does Uo]
Well, you're the one who just said "you can do anything if you try", right?
no subject
Not a clue. It's worth a shot, though, right?
[With a wry laugh, Lloyd rubs the back of his head.]
Yeah, but it takes a lot of work to get that strong, especially for a human, and I don't know if I want to spend that much time working on it. I still like doing other things, too.

[Blink. Wait.]
Are you serious?

[Totally taking her word at face value.]
How do you do it?

[dropping that grin just a bit]
I used to be in a gang, thinking I was cool to do bad things, before someone helped me get my act straightened out.
no subject
[Lloyd tilts his head, looking at the girl again.]
Really? You seem really nice. I can't imagine you doing things like that.

[Since they were both old enough to be from before there were two worlds.]
And Emil says there's only one world now when he's from. It's kind of confusing. But we all kind of came from the same place before we came to Somarium.
