... Um... I used to feel pretty bad, when people starting caring about me... 'cause I thought it'd hurt them more in the end.

[shaft]

[ Claude's reaction is instant, and not-verbal: Why? ]

How did you change?

[feytality]

[ bc of her canon point :') ]

Well... it's thanks to you guys, really....

[shaft]

... That recent?

[ D: ]

[feytality]

(I only really worried about that when I was here... )

[ like claude she has no friends except her pet phoenix ]

I think Hugo is pretty stubborn, though. Even more than me. So... I don't know, I'm trying to get through to him.

[shaft]

He spends a lot of time taking care of others. But between you and Lucretia, hopefully he has two people to trust.

[ Still concerned about Maya. ]

Just like you.

[feytality]

Well, I don't know if he trusts me, per say..... but I think he's at least accepted that I'm going to be there, whether he likes it or not.

(...?)

Me?

[shaft]

Yeah, you have people that trust and care about you too.

[ Nudges her shoulder. ]

No matter how tough you act.

[feytality]

.... I know.

[ she did say her feelings changed.... ]

That's the reason I can be tough in the first place.

[ gay. ]

[shaft]

[ Gives her a pat on the head. He's so fond... ]

So. What's going on with you and Rita?

[feytality]

[ this pc is set before their date but ill say claude has already seen them together somewhere ]

[ also sighing a little at the headpat.... but it's him, so she'll allow it ]

... It's not what you think. She's just helping me out with something, is all.

[shaft]

[ thank u timelines are hard

Anyway, he thinks about this for a second. ]

Extra credit or making someone jealous?

[feytality]

[ laughing ]

You really think someone would be jealous of Rita?

(I don't know how to break it to you guys that I'm not that popular of a date....)

[shaft]

I know you have... a thing. With Riku.

[ he thinks ]

[feytality]

Oh, you mean where he just insults me or freezes up when I try to do anything?

[ rolling her eyes a little, but with affection ]

You think a guy like that has it in him to get jealous? He doesn't even know what he wants.

[shaft]

[ Riku... buddy. ]

What do you like about him, then?

[feytality]

Well... he's cute, and sweet... he cares about his friends a lot, and he's strong... he's kind of a dummy, but not in a bad way. He has a big heart.

(I don't think I'm really cut out for romance, though....)

[shaft]

[ gay ]

Why not?

[feytality]

[ straight, actually ]

... I'm no good at stuff like that.

[ she has learned this from murder school ]

[shaft]

[ ????????? ]

I don't see how that's true? You're understanding of your feelings and others'...

[feytality]

Yeah, but not those kinds of feelings.

[ romantic styles.... ]

I don't really have any experience.

[shaft]

You've been a little pre-occupied...

[ He doesn't really have any experience either. ]

Maybe you should ask Annie?

[feytality]

Well... I mean, she got rejected too. We kinda bonded about it.

[ annie is cute..... ]

[shaft]

Rejection is part of life. She's got plenty of successful experiences too.

[ well........ ]

[feytality]

[ well....... ]

No, she's really great! I just mean we had a good time together talking about it sucks to have your feelings trampled upon. And eating junk food.

We could always do that, too, if you're feeling blue.
