He's not picking up on it.

But it's the kind of thing where, I dunno, does he want to actually date me or some idealized version of me? It's weird. I can only hold his hand about these kinds of things for so long.

[voidbreaker]

So just say it.

Some people are crap at this stuff -- lay it out, and if he actually wants to make this work, he'll work on that. If he doesn't, then maybe it ain't worth it.

[ it would be easier if she could explain why she is so hesitant, but she cannot doxx hikage's. uh. hikageness. ]

Yeah... I think it's just extra annoying, since now we have a bunch of people telling us that we can very easily work through any problem, and any hesitation we might have is dumb and we should get over it.

[voidbreaker]

[ hm. ]

You okay telling people you're working through stuff? You're not making promises, and anyone who pushes after that's a dick and you can tell them that to their face.

[vigilantics]

Well, that could work.

It's just kinda jarring when normally no one else cares about this kind of thing.

[voidbreaker]

Maybe we're all just feeling nosey.

[vigilantics]

Is this what happens when there's no internet?

[voidbreaker]

[ sighs in zemurian tech ]

It’s not like anyone but the military uses that anyway, so I guess we’re just always nosey.

[vigilantics]

Ah, world differences... I must better cater my jokes.

[voidbreaker]

At least I knew what it was, kinda.

[vigilantics]

Ah, yes.

That is better than most.

[voidbreaker]

There really is a weird mix of tech and... not here, huh?

[vigilantics]

At the castle, we were leaning more towards the not end of the spectrum, so I am a little relieved.

[voidbreaker]

Being surrounded by tech more your thing then?

[vigilantics]

Pretty much! Sometimes you are just a 21st century gal.

[voidbreaker]

[ that reference




ash's head ]

Guess there's stuff we all know that other people wouldn't. [ except for who killed hikage. none of us know that. ]

[vigilantics]

Yeah... it's always crazy when someone casually drops something that sounds crazy in conversation, and you just have to roll with it.

[voidbreaker]

[ laughs in orbments ]

Or explain it for the fifteenth time.

[vigilantics]

Maybe make pamphlets?

If we had stuff to write with.

[voidbreaker]

Yeah, therein lies the problem.

[vigilantics]

Not all of us can have a surplus of pens.

[voidbreaker]

I'm starting to think that's the real sign of wealth around here.

[vigilantics]

Perhaps there is an underground pen market?

[voidbreaker]

It probably makes more sense than forks.

[vigilantics]

[ ... ]

Forks...
