At the bar, there they were

The first person I met is Tama and Tomo. I met them at this bar and they were arguing over something. When they were getting too loud, I decided to butt in but then I realized that one of them was Tama Winogradski, one of the royal princes of Venus (I am such a royal geek). I was quite excited about it. :-) but then I realized that the other person looked exactly like him. And then they panicked a bit about being found out, and then Tomo had enough of it and went away. I never saw him again for a REALLY long time.

So, basically, I got stuck with Tama for four or five months. I didn't think he's ever seen earthlings before, so I was forced to take care of him, because in the corners of my heart there was pity. Not that I minded much, since I have always wanted to meet another royalty (They never allowed me to go to royal meetings before :-(..). But men, was Tama a handful. Oh, the days were chaotic like fuck. It was fun, looking back, but not really something I'd like to relive. It was a hard time.

Which reminds me of this conversation I had with Tama.
We were in a seminary yesterday, just the two of us along with strangers. I took the chance to talk to him again. It's been a while, after all.

Saki : "Tama, you're a narcissist, aren't you?"
He was seriously listening to the talk, so it took a while to squeeze some responses from him (I can never take talks seriously).
Tama : "I've been told a few times, so maybe I am."
Saki : "So you like being the best..." (wasn't really a question, so I was surprised he answered)
Tama : "Of course. Doesn't everybody?" (Good point.)
Saki : "Didn't they name Prince Ralph as handsomest prince, before?"
Tama : *just starring*
Saki : "Aren't you, you know... Jealous? Out-raged? Aren't you going to get him assassinated, drive him to live with twelve dwarves, make him eat a poisoned apple so that you can be the fairest of them all?"
Tama : *chuckles a bit* "that's absurd. I would never kill Ralph."
Saki : "But you can."
Tama : "But I won't."
Saki : "But his status is higher compared to your lowly status."
Tama : *he just blushes*
Saki : "....So you do want him out of the way?" *big devious grin*
Tama : "No. How many times do I have to tell you that? No! No! No! No!"
Saki : "Okay...but why not?"
Tama : *he blushes some more* "He's... Well... I am..."
Saki : "Go on. Don't be shy."
Tama : *glares at me for mocking him* "We're similar, Ralph and I" (he suddenly talks professionally)
Saki : *wtf stare* "AHAHAHAHAHAHAH! YOU'RE NOT SIMILAR! AHAHAHAHA! RALPH IS WAAY BETTER!"
(the speaker asks me what was so funny and I apologize and behave.)
Tama : *glances at me with a shamed expression*
Saki : *suppressing laughter* what's the real reason.
Tama : *he sighs* "He's a good guy."

and then I didn't push anymore because he seemed tired already. Ahh, gone are the days when I used to build us a tent in the middle of some forest, give him milk and lull him to sleep. My little boy is all grown up! *tear*
