[This room might be a nice, slightly whimsical surrounds to talk things over in, if it weren't for the collars and countdowns on your phones. ]

[his gaze snaps up]

-- what? Why?

[her getting angry at him didn't even register as something that she should apologize for]

[dragonheartedgirl]

For yelling at you, for starters. But mostly for not doing a satisfactory job of trying to help you through this.


[ Physically the signs that you were struggling were all there

but

I was too busy being angry and seeing your jokes as something said out of callous disregard. ]

.... If telling yourself that feelings are a mistake or you don't feel anything helps you through this, then--you do what you need to do.

[foolmetwice]

[wh]

[????]

You don't-- have to apologize.

[he says, still bewildered]

I'm kind of an asshole. It's like-- my thing.

[a beat]

Or, I try to make it my thing, but nobody ever takes me at face value.

[dragonheartedgirl]

Well, if it makes you feel any better--you nearly had me there, this time.

[ a wan smile. ]

So I do have to apologize. Because I should know better by now that that's not who you are.

[foolmetwice]

[. . . . . . . . . . huffs a little. between this, and then their spat about Prim. . .]

Can we talk later? Or something. Maybe not. . . talk, but like--

[GESTURES]

Now's a bad time.

[dragonheartedgirl]

That's fine.

[ Although she assumes that "later" is actually "never," she also doesn't want to force anything while the cameras are all obviously laser-focused on him. ]

[foolmetwice]

[he's talked to some people about this before, so really. . . at least he's used to having the conversation. at her agreement, he merely nods]

All right.
