[ new phone, who dis? No, uh, he should be glad Aphelios and Megumi already taught him how to use his phone. ]
I am surprised you were able to find fresh, unspoiled fruit.
Foodland seemed to be lacking in adequate produce.

[ he should stop.
he should leave it at that and stop. ]
[ but he can't. ]
[ poor neuvillette. ]
It's a good thing mine are the juiciest.

The water secreted by fruit, especially peach fruit, is often well-sweetened by natural sugars
and has a certain tangy note to it that I also find pleasing.
[ This isn't helping his ever-increasing thirst. For water. ]

[ ...great. now he's got to find an actual peach for the chief justice. ]
Did you want me to bring over... a peach?

You do not have to trouble yourself on my behalf, Wriothesley.
I know such a feat may be impossible to accomplish in this world,
and there are other more important matters that should occupy your attention.

It’s no trouble at all. [ he types, knowing that it will, in fact, be nothing BUT trouble. ] I’ll just adding peaches to my shopping list.
Are you going to be hanging around Gluttony, or will you come over to Greed when I get back?

[ He's really insisting on this, isn't he... ]
Once I return from gathering supplies,
I will be in Gluttony, yes.
If you summon me upon return, I can meet you at your household.

[ and there's going to be radio silence from wriothesley for approximately four hours. he was doing some scavenging when he sent neuvillette the text, but fresh fruit is nigh impossible to find. he had no luck at food land, so he decided to poke around for some trees... and that's just as hard, if not harder, since he's not sure what the hell he's even looking for around here. eventually, he finds the farm, but the fruits on the trees surrounding that are... bruised, at best. ]
Heading back now.

[ The text catches him off-guard. Neuvillette had been certain Wriothesley had given up trying to find fresh fruit by now, but then again, he's always been the earnest and persistent type. ]
You have kept your word,
and I will keep mine.
I will wait for you outside the "Greed" house.

Great. I'll be there soon.
[ he arrives a few minutes behind neuvillette with a small backpack slung over one of his shoulders. ] Well that took longer than I expected. Thanks for coming.

I hope the search was not too troublesome, though canned peaches would have also sufficed.
[ He doubts it would taste as fresh and delectable as peaches fresh from the vine, but he's trying not to be picky in this world. ]
I am grateful for your efforts nevertheless, Wriothesley.
[ Spoken with a slightly softer, more sincere voice than usual. ]

Not at all. A little time consuming... but here's to hoping the peaches are well worth the effort. [ he did find some canned fruit cocktail, but it probably tastes more like sugar than anything. ] ...heh, think nothing of it. I did promise... a peach after all. [ h- hah. there's a bit of strain to his tone there, because he did not mean THIS kind of peach, but oh well. ]
[ he moves the pack around to his front and digs around for the bruised peaches. ] Most of the ones I found were not in the best shape, so... [ try not to be too disappointed. ] Here. [ he has three peaches to show for his efforts. ]

[ Just finding one is a feat but three. Neuvillette is a little impressed. More than a little. He grabs one of the peaches, not minding the bruising too much so long as it's not outright spoiled and covered in maggots. ]
Thank you.
[ He takes a tentative bite, noting the taste –slightly off from the ones in their world but not terrible. ]
You were correct before. Your peach is adequately juicy.

Did you know the peach emoji is a euphemism for a person's butt?

Did you seriously message me earlier to boast about your physical attributes?

I think you put it best, Neuvillette, my peach is adequately juicy.
Yes, plenty. To begin with, you masked your intentions behind purposely ambiguous language and an "emoji." Then when I misunderstood your intent, you did not correct me once. Lastly, you continued to play along to the extent where you retrieved fruit for me in a town nearly depleted of fresh crops and living plants.
[ He's really not sure what to make of the Wriothesley's unhinged actions, except that they are definitely uniquely on brand. ]
If your intent was to leave me confounded, you have succeeded.
[ Humans –especially Wriothesley– continue to be enigmas wrapped in riddles wrapped in more enigmas. ]

[ ...did he just acknowledge his phat ass? for a moment he's stunned, but then he snaps to, so he can listen to neuvillette's 'scolding'. ] Yeah, that about sums it up. [ he did all of that and, what's worse, is he'd do it all again. sure, he spent several hours scouring the area for fruit, specifically peaches, but it was well worth it to see neuvillette enjoy them. ]
I wanted your opinion on my peach. [ on peach(butt) and peach(fruit). ] And I got it.

I gave an opinion on the fruit you presented me with. I do not recall doing the same for anything else.
[ Nor will he. That's too improper of his station, and it would require more examination than he is prepared to give at this moment. ]
