Oh, I wouldn't be so quick to put it in such a grandiose way. For all you know, I could've done it for a taste of power.
[ though their tone is maybe a bit too frivolous for that to be a serious suggestion. who knows? their hand on the bridge railing, fox taps their index finger against its surface. tap. tap.
their tone doesn't quite lose its upbeat nature, though it's more thoughtful. ]
... Strange, really. I suppose the irony of such drastic amnesia is that it actually makes it harder to notice what's gone. After all, you notice most what you're "missing" when something else is present to emphasize its absence. Isn't that what sparks loneliness, envy, etc.?
I couldn't begin to guess what I've lost--good or bad--so I don't know what to feel about it.
(He's not going to judge anyone just for doing what they have to to seize a little bit of power. Well, depending on the methods, of course.
As Fox speaks, Claude is quiet, thoughtful, and listening. It makes sense. To suddenly lose most (all?) of your memories would have to feel like something. What would it be like waking up with no idea who you were? Where you were from or what your dreams were?
... It makes him uncomfortable and he shifts slightly from one foot to the next,)
It's a strange position but I don't envy you one bit. Is there anything you remember at all? Or is it really just all gone?
(Is the same thing going to happen to them eventually?)
I remember that I'm human, and my age. Also, we remember general concepts that we presumably had before our amnesia. [ lightly, ] You may have noticed that only one of the Leaders struggles with technology.
Tell you what: if you can correctly guess within three tries, I'll do you a favour. [ they say as if they couldn't do a favour (see: taako's cake) without putting conditions on it, but you know. ] Within my means, of course.
(The second time he's failed a challenge this week and he still gets something out of it.........)
Really? How generous, Fox.
(But he knows exactly what he wants to ask!!)
I want to plan a feast-- an event where all of us can gather and get to know each other. Of course, you and your friends are invited and I've asked Rabbit to do just that.
(It seems like a good thing to use a half favor for,)
Whether it be some food or drink, any help with preparations would be appreciated.

[ goat, ]
That's pretty much it.

(he noticed how the information in the profile was worded.)

Well now.
How old do you think I am?
no subject
(Which doesn't answer much!)
no subject
Remarkable powers of observation.
no subject
You're not one of those people that's actually a couple hundred years old are you? We got a few of those here.

(BUT OKAY... let's see... Claude's just going to size of Fox! See how their height compares to his. Taller? Shorter?)
no subject
[ fox is just slightly shorter. ]
no subject
(Starting off the same as him! Maybe they're around the same age hmmmm.)
no subject
[ that's a no, and also a hint. ]
no subject
A hint! How generous. (A hand on his hip, he taps one finger at his side,) Hmm... twenty-four.
no subject
You're getting there, but not quite. One more guess! ☆
no subject
(IT'S NOT LOOKING GOOD but this is fine, )
Twenty... six?
(Hm.)
no subject
[ a grin ]
Still, as a reward for your efforts, I'll consider granting half a favour. [ whatever 0.5 of a favour means ] So, ask away.

... I can assist with preparations, yes. That shouldn't be an issue.
[ a smile. ]
Though if you're requesting for alcohol to be there, try not to get everyone drunk at the party, now.
no subject
(He means it! He's actually grateful.)
I can think of some people who would appreciate the spirits. I'll do what I can but as you know, there are quite a lot of us here.
(He makes no promises.)
no subject
Just don't destroy anything this time.
