[All of Add's projects are equally important! And maybe Rin likes his upgrades! Assuming Rin is capable of forming an opinion, anyway...

Everything was going so nicely(?) up until Ludger decides to pick Add up and drop him on the ground. He whines like an irritable cat, immediately making a face and trying to dust himself off after his rough landing. There's no way he's standing back up until some of this drunkenness wears off.

But he's not going to let Ludger walk away a victor this time, oh no. Being close to the ground also puts Add in the perfect position to take his revenge. He makes a grab for one of his legs, aiming to drag the other man down with him.

Ludger obviously works too much. He needs a break! Add is doing him a favour here!!]

[A blessing it is that at least Add hasn't looked into messing with living beings and sticking to Rin. The moment he tries to touch May to "improve her" will be the day Ludger might blight his god for the first time.

Ludger actually had planned on leaving. Ludger for a fact now knows that he is not going to be allowed to as the ground is suddenly a lot closer than before. He lets out a disgruntled yelp when he lands, letting himself take a moment to recover before looking back to see what happened.

.................... Add.]

Let go!

[subtract]

[Oh man, that was way more satisfying than he was expecting. Or maybe it's the flowers. Either way, Add starts laughing uncontrollably at Ludger's minuscule moment of suffering.]

Kekekekekekeke, I told you to watch where you're going, didn't I? [well, actually that was Ludger who said it...

He will let go of his leg, though. He got you on the ground, but he knows better than to turn this into a physical struggle. He even holds both hands up to show how much he's totally not grabbing anything now.]

You need to stop letting your guard down so much, keke.

Ludger sits up and stares at Add for quite a while. You should feel lucky that he's somewhat intoxicated himself. Else he would have gotten his revenge. Actually.... he grabs a handful of blossoms from the ground and tosses them at Add.

Take that!]

[subtract]

[His obnoxious cackling is abruptly cut off when flowers start raining down on him. He flails a little, trying to knock them off.]

What are you doing?! I came over here to get away from those! [Super rude. You're not helping, Ludger!!

He grabs his own handful of flowers and throws them right back.]

[soindebt]

[Yes, but Ludger is in a childish mood at the moment. Flowers are the perfect weapon. It's not like Add will pick up dirty bloss-

WHAT THE-? ADD, YOU'RE TOUCHING THEM

Ludger huffs and picks up more to toss at Add, a few chunks of dirt and grass hidden in them.]

[subtract]

[He lets out a tiny screech at having dirt thrown at him—flowers and grass, okay, he can tolerate it, but dirt? That is crossing the line.

This time he's going to grab the biggest fistful of flowers he can hold and make a lunge for Ludger, trying to either shove them in his face or down his shirt while he uses his other hand to defend himself.]

[soindebt]

[Letting out a yelp, Ludger did not anticipate this move. He was figuring Add would more likely panic and try and run off, but lunging? Nope.

He has the good sense to also cover his face. It doesn't make the sensation of petals going down his shirt any less weird. Ludger uses his free hand to shove Add away from him.

These two are such kids.]

[subtract]

[He starts cackling again over his tiny victory, tossing the rest of the petals in his hand at Ludger as he's shoved away. But it's still his victory, damnit. He won this petty battle!

Once he's out of leftover petals to throw, he allows himself to retreat... all of maybe two feet away. If he couldn't walk here on his own then he's sure as hell not going to stand up and start running.]

[soindebt]

[...... covered in petals, Ludger stands and grabs Add's leg. Time to go home. He doesn't even wait for the complaint as he literally starts dragging Add through the dirt.

Payback for petals in his shirt.]

[subtract]

[Aaaaand back to squawking and kicking.]

That's cheating, let go of me! [He's going to get dirt under his clothes too if this keeps up, ugh!!] You're the one who started this, so cut it out already!

[Yes, Ludger started this... somehow... maybe if he counts Ludger picking him up and dropping him earlier?]

[soindebt]

[Ludger stops when they hit concrete, looking at at Add with a very irritated expression. He lets the leg go and starts walking ahead of Add.

At leas at he's not dragging you over concrete, cobbles, and who knows what else.]

[subtract]

[He flails pointlessly for awhile after Ludger lets go before realizing he's already free. Success...?

Yeah, sure, he'll count that as a success. Close enough. He shakes a fist in Ludger's direction.] Go ahead and run! That's what you get for trying to mess with me!

[...maybe he should just take a nap or something until this wears off...]

[soindebt]

[Stopping, Ludger looks back at Add. Who isn't getting up.

..... You know what, Ludger is just gonna go walk back on his own.

Bye, Add.]

[subtract]

[And about two minutes later Add just passes the fuck out. Probably for the best.

... At least he'll wake up before everything is on fire...]
