Yeah, he always made that clear to me, too. [a slow sigh.] I miss him. I miss both of them, and it's only been a day, but - it's been so long since I've been away from them at all.
[He understands. He gets it. Like... now, he does.]
I cannot say as much to them, but I hope so as well. Though... I'm not sure if they would be happy with you to know you may accidentally separate them after they... have maybe become... partners?
[He opens his mouth, but then... shuts it. Shaking... his head... very slowly? The feelings are confused, but... considering? Like he's having to re-evaluate things misunderstood.]
I... only recently... began to know Gale a little more. So it's... not something I considered exactly? He did not really... give me the impression he was interested in that sort of thing.
[Local wizards flirt with drow of solitude who misses every sign, news at 11.]
[FUCKING GETO!!!!!! Anyway, a rise of fluster happens again. WHY WOULD YOU IMPLY THERE COULD BE MORE THAN ONE PERSON? The idea makes him really embarrassed. Hilariously, this face doesn't show too much of this openly.
The swallows gently.]
I never really gave it much consideration... I'd rather... get to know someone well before that, but it is difficult to do when... you do not have friends.
[LISTEN!! IT ISN'T HIS FAULT! HE HAS SOME BAGGAGE TO GET THROUGH. When you're slow, but you're worth it. (Flurry and Beau do not think so.)
ALSO, NEVERMIND. As soon as she speeds over to grab his hand - why do so many people hold his fucking hand, he's so baffled - his face gets darker purple around the cheeks and neck. Shy embarrassment explodes out of him. ]
Why do you and Gale both insist... on... [MMHPH.] I know. I've been told...
I will argue the truth of that, but I meant... at home. Before. Most of my life, I did not have friends.
[she says, amused. she lets go of his hands, but only after squeezing them.]
At least you're not nearly as bad as Nehan. You can have that. [...] Believe in yourself a bit more. You can be the magical grand dick of all and still love and hold on to people.

no subject
They haven't told me, this is just based on what I've seen. But as far as I'm aware, yes.

Are you sad about that?
no subject
The confusion is genuine at least.]
I... No? Is there... a reason I would be?
no subject
she has to hide the amusement.]
No! Just curious.

Do you want to try being honest...?

No, I... don't think so? I don't mind if they're happy.

I should have sent you the dream, gods. [...] You're so bad at this! It's really endearing!
no subject
Excuse me...? What dream? I had enough dreams already with the idiocy Suguru gave me.
no subject
I hope what he sent you wasn't as weird as what he sent Rondo. [anyway.] Nothing, it doesn't matter. Gale's a one person sort of guy, yeah? So.
You're not very into romance?

a beat, and then she wanders over to him and takes his hands.]
First of all - we are friends. [she tells him, firmly.] I'm not going to kiss you for a lot of reasons, but we are friends.
Second of all, you've got more than you think. People here love you.

no subject
Well, it's never too late to change all that. [she says, amused.] You've made some friends here, so take that and do good when you're back home.
You're not a quitter, I know that. And I think you don't really want to be alone, or you would never talk to me.
no subject
OK, STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. He continues to stay sort of flustered. His hands worry themselves in a way against hers.]
....
[He glances anywhere but her at the last part. He doesn't gotta look, the vibes tell her everything she needs to know.]
That's not...
