Hey, Idia! Anyone who knows how to technology in a smart way.

( Here's Jingyi, holding up an e-reader turned toward the ICP camera. One can read that it says, "CONNECT TO PRINT." He has no idea what to do with that, can understand what it functionally does, but: )

How do you get this to do the thing where it can make physical copies of the stuff we were sent over by Ten-Nank?

[ The offer? That much is expected. As much as Jingyi can sometimes be.. well, very Jingyi-y, he's also incredibly kind, and Inigo isn't surprised at all to hear it. Besides, it's not like he hasn't had cuddle naps with Taiki there before.. sorry, Jingyi, napping with your roommate behind your back..!!

But what follows is a little less expected. Maybe it shouldn't be, when Jingyi's tail is such an important part of him, but Inigo doesn't think about it often enough to have expected the question itself, apparently. ]

I mean.. If you want it?

[ This may be about his comfort here, but Inigo can't help but always try to look out for the comfort of others as well. ]

I'm sure not going to say no to that. I like physical contact of all kinds. [ Not that he's used to tail stuff - if not just because Nah is the only one with a tail back where he comes from, and she's not exactly the most physically affectionate person around.

Especially not with him. ]

[jingyeets]

( he lifts his shoulders, shrugging. )

I have to think about not using my tail. It's easier to shift fully human otherwise.

( Because it's another appendage, so if he's reaching out or playing around or simply being in a non-formal context, his tail's as naturally a part of his body language as anything else. )

It's not really fair to you, since you can't respond in kind, but it's just... like another arm. Without fingers. And extra furry?

I like it though. [ In regards to the 'not fair' thing. Please, the more limbs, the better. Turn into an eight-armed deity and embrace him with every single one of those arms, Jingyi, you coward.

So that's not the problem here. No, Inigo isn't worried about being snubbed, he's just worried about Jingyi's comfort!

As evidenced by him continuing with: ]

.. And I thought it was more comfortable for you to have your tail out.

[ Jingyi always moved that thing so freely and often whenever he had it out that Inigo just assumed that was the case. ]

[jingyeets]

Is it more comfortable for you to swing both arms freely, or tie one down to your chest?

( he doesn't mean for that question to be answered, though with it, his tail appears on screen again, light blue tufted end waving around lazily. )

I do what's necessary, but trust me, you'll hear me complain when I have to put these and this away.

( A flick at his left horn for these, then a swish of his tufted tail for this. )

[flatteries]

[ Wow, Jingyi. You and your rethorical questions.

At least Inigo is catching on to the fact that it is a question that isn't meant to be answered, which is why he waits for the other to follow up with the rest - and then Inigo almost seems to pout a little bit. ]

Then keep them out and come hug me with them! [ J-JINGYI, YOU B-BAKA!!

Also, the tail. He means hug him with the tail. Don't hug him with the horns, it sounds uncomfortable. ]

[jingyeets]

... I'll remind you that you said that.

( said with a nod. because he does know what Inigo means, since so far as he can tell Inigo is only an emotional masochist, not a physical one.

still, at some point he's going to have to headbutt him. he just will. )
