What, like you? I get to be vague and cryptic if you do. Fair's fair.

[he picks up his pillow to bop her head lightly before he flops back down on it. still holding his end of the bandana.]

I'm not being vague and cryptic. And that's different anyway!

[ the thwack with the pillow makes her laugh. ]

Is it? I don't think it is!

It's totally different! [it absolutely is not.] Mine's just...like personal stuff that nobody can do anything about.

Well, so is mine! So there! Now we're both stubborn asshats.

[...he just yanks his end of the bandana and swings it around a little more aggressively.]

Let me help! [is this really the issue here? yes.]

[ sora!!! she raises her eyebrows at him, and tugs the bandana close enough so she can shock him. briefly. just once. ]

Ow. No. I'm not giving you more to carry.

[ow?]

You can't keep doing that after this week when you want me to shut up. [rude?] And it's not giving me stuff to carry by myself. It's helping you carry it.

That's why I'm taking advantage of it now. [ she says dryly. ] You already are helping like, thirty other people carry their problems.

I know that's your like, thing, I know you can't help but spill your protag juice all over the floor, but I'm not adding onto it right now. Especially when you refuse to let me balance you out.

Okay, well, there's really nothing anybody can do for me right now because I'm not even sure what to do for me right now. So if I can help other people instead, I will.

Okay, well, it's the same for me. I can't remember things. That fucks me up! I have memory PTSD already!

There's nothing you can do, and there's nothing I can do, and I don't want to talk about it.

Fine! [he just kind of flops on his side to angrily glare at the wall even if he refuses to let go of the bandana.]

...then what do you want to talk about?

[ she's just - vaguely amused. ]

How about something you can't tell anybody else?

[hmm...]

...about me? Or about other stuff?

Nah - though I'd listen, if you wanted to tell me.

I meant something that happened to me. It's less dire.

Oh. [he 100% misinterpreted that and now he looks a little more pleased.] Okay.

[he's so easy to bribe when it comes to lup, god.]

[ she snorts. sora please. ]

Blanca took me on a date. [ she hums, stretching out like it's no big deal. ]

[...immediately a burst of approval and happiness, enjoy that.]

Really? When? Was he nice about it? Where'd you go? [stop.]

[ she does enjoy that! laughing: ]

He was a gentleman, for sure! We made dinner together and walked around town. I beat him at the dancing game at the arcade. The usual.

That's...really nice. [sparklesparkle...] I'm glad. Blanca's a really good person.

[he is so stupidly fond of blanca.]

[ good because so is she, and it's really gross. she thinks of blanca and there's a total near-dorky amount of dokis. ]

He's fine, I guess.

[cute!! he's so happy!!]

You know I can still feel your feelings, right. [lup please.]

[ STOP LOOKING AT HER ]

I don't know what you're talking about! [ she rolls over! goodbye ]

[he yanks! the bandana!!]

You liiiiike him. Just admit it! [sorry that he is actually a child.]

[ don't lOOK her ears are a bit pink at the tips. ]

Maybe. [ she says, absently. ] There's, uh - there's worse people I could pick.
