On line dating app?

[ He understands these words separately? ]

[cupidsammo]

[ oh no. why. there are way too many of you who don't modern technology. ]

...... Does "the internet" mean anything to you?

[boxcar]

No.

[cupidsammo]

Ah. Sorry. Um, then I'll just say it's different from normal dating services...

[boxcar]

Okay.

[ Accepts this non-explanation. ]

... It sounds cute.

[cupidsammo]

Oh, it's very fun! It can be hard work, but I find it rewarding in the end.

[boxcar]

... How does it... work?

[ Curious... ]

[cupidsammo]

Well...

[ Another nom of the soup, then: ]

First we have to do some reconnaissance, so we can try to figure out what type of person is best for our target. But, depending, sometimes it's easy to decide... and sometimes it can be a pretty tough puzzle to solve.

[boxcar]

... Target?

Do people not sign up for this?

[ This really is love arrows help. I hope she gets all of them this game. ]

[ LOVE ARROWS: THE CHARACTER ]

Well, no! Normally humans aren't able to see cupids like me, and we work in secret.

[boxcar]

Cupid...

[ Mathlady.gif

And then he just looks vaguely flustered in the way that's like. Well. Appropriate for being told you're a cupid. ]

Oh. I didn't realise you weren't...

[cupidsammo]

Hahah—not human?

[boxcar]

Yeah.

You did say humans earlier.

[ Like they were different but it's not unusual enough to be damning. ]

There seems to be a lot of not-humans...?

[cupidsammo]

It's kind of weird, isn't it? I'm not used to it either.

[boxcar]

Even though you aren't human either?

[cupidsammo]

I'm still around humans a lot! And there's not anything unusual going on, so...

[boxcar]

But there isn't anything else other than cupids?

[ Like supernaturally. ]

[cupidsammo]

[ ........... has to think about this one ]

I suppose there could be, but to be honest, I've never seen it.

[boxcar]

... This has also made me wonder if they're around, I just never met them.

[cupidsammo]

Mmhm. It's just, you know, we stay hidden from humans for a reason.

[boxcar]

Can I ask what is the reason?

[ He doesn't really know why please enlighten him. ]

[cupidsammo]

It's like—mmm... Have you ever fallen in love before?

[boxcar]

...

[ He just kind of eats a spoonful of soup, looking down... ]

[cupidsammo]

—O- oh. Too personal...?

[boxcar]

Um. It's just...

[ Nevermind. He decides against it. ]

No, no I haven't.
