Of course it's not. It'd be stupid to think humans are the only ones capable of being idiots.

Main Room    (Zwei)    and    (Cuarto)   

-Cuarto seems distressed now.-

   "I-I'm pushing people away?!"   

-OH NO.-

-HE MUST CORRECT THIS.-

   "P-Please enlighten me! What must I do to win the hearts of maidens everywhere?!"   

   "...Very true..."   

-Can't blame a guy for silently hoping that alien life would be smarter than humanity.-

-...Or at least smarter than his brothers.-

Lemme tell you: there's still a civil war going on in the Empire I left behind.

There's no winner yet. And they keep fighting to have the whole deal, rather than secure the pieces that they own already.

Main Room    (Zwei)    and    (Cuarto)   

-...So Xenos left behind an empire?-

   "..."   

-He seems to be waiting to see if Xenos has anything else to say.-

-He has nothing to say in response to that.-

Uh—

(Mura blinks, having been caught off guard by Cuarto's distress)

...Look, basically, you just gotta make sure they're comfortable. Like, ask them. But not too much.

But yeah.

I was also a Conqueror at one point, and an Emperor.

It was interesting while it lasted, but I quickly grew tired of it, and just abandoned the post to continue travelling on my own.

Main Room    (Zwei)    and    (Cuarto)   

-Cuarto needs to make sure they're comfortable?-

   "How do I do that?"   

-Examples would be useful for the dense, girl-crazy boy.-

-Meanwhile, Zwei is just listening to Xenos.-

   "...So you left an entire world in a war because you were bored..."   

-...-

-...He sure doesn't seem to care much about that.-

-Not like it matters to him. He just wants to see Xenos's power for himself and figure out a way to harness it.-

-What Xenos did in the past is mostly irrelevant... unless it involves his power and what he can do.-

-...Xenos, this Aichi is quite a winner, isn't he?-

Yep.

No clear line of succession. I just left.

Power vacuum tears them apart, and it shows how dependent the system was on me.

I still get requests from one faction in particular that wants me to come back and sort it all out.

Buuut, I'm more interested in relaxing...

What, asking if they're comfortable?

Main Room    (Zwei)    and    (Cuarto)   

-Cuarto shakes his head, trying to figure out how to clarify.-

   "I-I didn't think I asked how people were doing too much... How do I ask them less?"   

-So basically... give him an idea of how to go about the whole thing. He's way too over the top naturally.-

-Zwei still just has the same expression.-

   "...I see..."   

-...Zwei can't imagine actually 'relaxing'. He's at best in peace and quiet, but there's no such thing as 'relaxed' with him.-

Believe me, though.

Conquest, power, dominion?

It's an ambition for people who don't know what real responsibility is.

Just... iunno, try to only ask once. Only ask again if they actually look bothered.

Main Room    (Zwei)    and    (Cuarto)   

-So only ask once unless they're really bothered?-

   "All right, that sounds easy enough~!"   

-Well, he's in a good mood again.-

-Zwei can't help but feel insulted. Not only are his boss and his brothers aiming for conquest, he's aiming for conquest.-

   "...You are free to believe that..."   

-...Xenos, it's subtle, but you may have annoyed Zwei.-

...Yeahhhh. Sorry, I'm not the best gal to ask about this sort of thing. Lost my temper twice and I got remembered as a villain... ah well.

-Gafinilan is in the main room, charging his phone-

-The alien's visibly sweating as he pace around the room-

-She got remembered as a villain?-

   "Hmm~? What do you mean by that~?"   

-Zwei scoffs.-

   "...Don't underestimate me..."   

-Zwei is perfect, after all. An improvement, smarter than the rest, leagues above all others!-

   "...If I were to become a conqueror... a ruler above all... I would know how to handle it..."   

-Wow. You can hear the ego in his voice right now. Not really any emotion, but a sense of a high opinion of himself is laced in his voice.-

-He then looks over at the Andalite.-

-...There's someone starring at you, Gaf.-

Is that so?

Well, then by all means.

Go and do it. See how long you can last with everyone wanting everything from you.

Fix the housing, fix the infrastructure, people aren't wealthy enough, people aren't poor enough.

You never win. There's always a problem to fix.

Oh, just a something from long ago. I'm a blacksmith who ended up on the wrong side of history.

-Zwei simply looks back at Xenos.-

   "..."   

-...Xenos expects him to fail.-

   "...I will be able to handle everything..."   

-...He's taking this as a challenge, Xenos.-

-Cuarto definitely seems confused.-

-He almost flirts. Almost.-

-But he remembers that Muramasa is taken.-

   "Perhaps he could explain~? I'm very curious~..."

Sure, sure, sure.

You'll be meticulous, calculating, and construct the most efficient bureaucracy the world has ever seen.

(shrugs)

There's not a lot to it. Japan was at war with itself, I sponsored a few warlords, and those warlords lost. I didn't believe in their ideals, they just got my commission spots first.

-The alien glances back-

-This really isn't the time to be worrying about quarrels, Gaf-

-What really matters is how your boyfriend is going to react to your new body-

-Oh why is that person staring at him? Is he ugly? He's probably hideous-

...

<...Yes?>

Main Room    (Zwei)    and    (Cuarto)   

-Awww... How cute. Xenos thinks that Zwei's going to be so merciful as to let there be a bureaucracy!-

-They will all cower beneath him (OK, really Ovi, but still) and he will reign supreme over all others (Barring Ovi and her uncle, of course)!-

   "...Doubt me all you want... One day I will fulfill my goal..."   

-Cuarto blinks.-

   "Very interesting~..."   

-So she creates weapons, does she...?-

-Zwei looks back at Gaf, a bit surprised by the thoughtspeak.-

   "...Curious... What are you?"
