Okay.. but what should I wear? Does it matter? I’ve never been to a gala.
[ Well, Laios, when you’re a king, you’re going to go to a lot of them.
Also, this conversation might further prove that Laios doesn’t dislike humans in a malicious way, but maybe it’s because he’s been hurt by them and he’s apprehensive to keep trying.
And maybe it hurts so much because he cares about them too much. Quite the opposite of Kabru’s fears. ]
[ This is going the way he wants, and on top of that he's learning more about Laios. He doesn't hate humans, but he's apprehensive. Afraid of being rejected by them for trying. That's a very normal feeling that many people go through. Kabru feels more at ease now. He's also getting excited again because social communications are his special interest, and now he gets to prepare Laios for an event focused on just that. ]
It matters! What you dress tells a lot about your personality! It's a form of communication in itself.
You don't have to worry about any of that. I'll help you! And I can teach you dancing too!
I have never thought of it that way. I just like whatever is comfortable and functional for what I am doing.
[ Kabru has.. really been super attached to Laios ever since they got here, but he hasn’t really gotten angry or impatient with Laios; he even asks about his hobbies.
And now, he’s excited to help out with something like this? What a nice guy. ]
You really think of others more than you think of yourself, don’t you?
[ sorry his autistic ass will notice something like this instead of something very obvious.. like how much Kabru is wanting to be his friend. ]
[ Laios, that is already telling of your personality in itself. ]
Huh? Well, seeing how other people make connections is something like a hobby of mine. [ Does he not think about himself? (Considering how often he forgets to eat and how messy his room is, yes.) ]
[ It’s in this moment that Laios realizes that he wouldn’t mind going to something like this with Kabru. After all, he knows Kabru is a kind person to him. He could talk about monsters for hours and he knows Kabru would be happy to listen.
Laios should probably tell Kabru that he would go with him and have him as a date. That going to something like this with Kabru.. he is more comfortable with that than going with somebody he’s not ever met before, even if the guy did have a three headed dog.
Though, something prevents Laios from saying anything, but he can’t help the way his cheeks turn a little pink at the thought. ]
I don't have any other choice.. unless the person you're linking me up with also doesn't wanna dance. Maybe you could ask him about that before going through all this trouble??

[ yeah kabru why did you open up with the fact he’s handsome and all that crap… ]
He is friends with a minotaur? Is it tame?

I didn't ask too much. Perhaps you could ask him when you meet?

[ The anticipation. ]

I’m assuming you’re going with someone if you have enough time to pair up other people.

Oh. Well, I'll be helping Prince Callisto oversee the event, so there's no real need for me to show up with a date ...

If you say so..
I just don’t think it’s fair.

If it makes things easier I'll introduce you both and check in if you're having trouble.

Anyway, if you have some time today, I could show you how to do the waltz?
