First of all: no.

Second of all: still no.

Third, you're one of my favourite people here to have fun with, so there. [ NYEH ]

[pyrighteous]

I - um - thank you? But I meant it as a literal thing. Like. He definitely knows what he's doing.

I have almost ZERO practice.

[bluediligence]

I'd call it exposure rather than practice, personally. Fun is too subjective for grading.

[pyrighteous]

Anything can be graded if you have a complex enough rubric.

[bluediligence]

I-

[ oh no

oh no now she's giggling ]

Sorry, sorry, I'm not laughing at you, promise. It's just, you really sounded like Donnie-kun for a second there.

[pyrighteous]

[ REddens!! ]

Donnie is very sensible sometimes! I understand him!

[bluediligence]

It's not a criticism! Not at all.

I can see why you guys clicked.

[pyrighteous]

Y-yeah. I think - neither of us are used to being understood.

[bluediligence]

This place is ridiculous, but if there's one good thing about it ...

It's brought people together. Helped them connect.

[pyrighteous]

... Yeah. Yeah, I - I have more friends than I ever imagined having back home.

[bluediligence]

And one cute crush.

[pyrighteous]

[ Um. Hunter is abruptly VERY red. ]

M-more than just. Uh. That.

[bluediligence]

[ ...!!! GASP. SWIVELS AROUND TO FACE HIM ]

Oh my gosh, you went for it? Congratulations, Hunter-kun!

[pyrighteous]

I - I don't know if "went for it" is the right word? Apparently Guard threatened Leo??

[bluediligence]

[ ??? ¿¿¿ ]

Threatened ... oh, like a shovel talk? "If you hurt him I'll find you," that kind of thing?

[pyrighteous]

That ... must have been it. He didn't say but.

[bluediligence]

Aha. It's a classic big brother move.

[pyrighteous]

R-really?

[bluediligence]

Yeah! It's one way of saying ... "You'd better take care of this person, because they're important to me. I'll fight for them if I have to."

[pyrighteous]

.........

[ GUARD CARES ]

I didn't think about it that way.

[bluediligence]

[ a BRIEF SIDE HUG for Hunter ]

It's one of those things that can be easier to see from the outside.

[pyrighteous]

[ THANKS KORONE he leans into that. ]

And you - uh, have siblings, right?

[bluediligence]

Just the one! Wash-nii. We adopted each other when I was - I guess I was probably still seventeen at that point.

He's super protective. Sometimes it's irritating [ or dangerous, lol, lmao ] ... but at the end of the day, I know it's one of the ways he shows he loves me.

[pyrighteous]

Oh, yeah. You mentioned him.

... Did he threaten, uh. Your crushes too?

[bluediligence]

I, uhm. I don't know if I've ever had one before, actually.

[ Her cheeks flush ]

I know he's given Kaito a talking to ... They butted heads sometimes though, 'cuz they're both strong, stubborn people and Kaito can be a brat.
