[That's a compelling point. Mettaton hadn't thought of that, since he's not entirely clear on what goes on under Astoria's guidance. When do they leave? When do they return? He wants some binding contracts that outline terms of recruitment, Astoria. Not that he would read them. But if Ritsu's bringing it up, then he must have more of an understanding about the nature of their "missions." Still, he imagines Ritsu's drab room and thinks about how un-lived in it would feel to reside in each time they're intended to return from their "missions." He doesn't like it, and he crosses his arms.]
...VERY WELL. I CONCEDE THAT YOU MAKE A GOOD ARGUMENT AGAINST PERSONALIZING YOUR QUARTERS. THEN I SUPPOSE I HAVE LEARNED THAT YOU ARE PRACTICAL AND THOUGHTFUL... BUT! YOU ALSO DO NOT PRIORITIZE YOUR OWN COMFORT IF YOU RATIONALIZE THAT IT IS FRIVOLOUS. DARLING, JUST BECAUSE YOU'LL BE AWAY FOR SOME UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME DOESN'T MEAN YOU WON'T BE BACK! IT IS YOUR SPACE TO DO WITH AS YOU PLEASE. EVEN IF YOU NEVER RETURN TO IT.
