[pushes away his bowl and struggles to his feet, +5 DEF(ensive)]

...Fine, whatever.

[maege]

—Heeeyyy, I'm just messin' around, where're you running off to?

[does she have to get up too?? SHE IS SO TIRED OF STANDING AND MOVING DON'T DO THIS TO HER as she does it anyway]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[as always it'd take a hell of an injury to hurt worse than the slightest bruise to his pride, sooo]

Just because you might've helped me out earlier and I might've appreciated it doesn't make me some helpless damsel. I don't need anyone's help and I certainly don't need anyone's pity.

[maege]

Oh are you kidding me—

[she doesn't want to go chasing him down but SHE'S GONNA. SHE'S ABANDONING ICE CREAM FOR THIS]

Look, I'm plenty aware you aren't helpless, this is just, having-a-friend 101, I am offering to help you out because you already busted your butt helping me out and, you know, even besides the fact that I like you and would prefer you not just kinda be stuck on your own after an exciting day through the wringer, I'd seriously owe you one anyway.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[hhhesitates, wary]

Why?

[maege]

...Aaaaagain, having-a-friend 101.

[ooooobviously???]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[he skipped that class??]

...

[yeah he's not sure how to counter that without sounding too ignorant so he'll spend his truth bullets elsewhere]

Anyway, you don't owe me anything. So you don't have any more obligations.

[which he doesn't need to sound so sulky about?]

[maege]

[YEAH UH SHE CAN TELL]

Cool, then we can quit keepin' score and just focus on the part where I like hanging out with you, dummy.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[wow, he is a completely normal--nah, even here I can't claim that]

[his frown this time is mostly to poorly cover intense confusion, why? would anyone like that? his sweet coat's all bloody and he hasn't got any money right now and she doesn't even play duel monsters???

after concentrating on this for longer than the average person might, he does take a few more steps. but just to the freezer to retrieve more ice cream]

[maege]

[iiiiinching towards her chair]

...Okay, before I sit down and get comfy, are you gonna keep making me do the up and down thing because I want to be ready next time.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

No one asked you to get up. You should take more care with your injury, anyway. Did you rewrap it?

[maege]

[physically resisting the urge to tease him about worrying. you can see the very moment she bites back the snark and instead promptly sits down so she can shove ice cream in her mouth instead of risking accidentally crossing the line again.

bbbbut also just kind of waves her hand instead of...answering for real...... Mae no]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[it IS an awfully thin and all-too-transparent line, and he's not really sorry about it but he's almost sorry that he's not sorry about it? anyway, he definitely prefers fussing about her health to anything involving him and his complicated relationship with feelings because she should take care of herself??? geez]

...If you haven't gotten someone by the execution, find me.

[maege]

Eheh, Iiii'm just gonna preemptively decide that I'm gonna take you up on that later anyway. Actually, I don't think anyone else figured me out yet!

[don't sound proud of it mae for fuck's sake]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

Left to their own devices, most people are pitifully poor at noticing things they don't want to know. And with most of the touchy-feely people dead, it's harder to come up accidentally as well.

[he doesn't sound not proud tho]

[maege]

[snorts a li'l. she's trying not to tease him too bad but it's so hard]

So we're just stuck with each other, is what you're saying.

[SO HARD!!!]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[shrugs]

You could always just tell someone to help out. They'd probably be concerned, if you're into that sort of thing.

[maege]

Sure, but obviously I haven't done that, and sooomething tells me you haven't either, and something else tells me neither of us are gonna, sooo.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[well, he can't say she's wrong.]

...You still should take better care of yourself. There's people who won't be very happy if you end up in more than one piece.

[maege]

[gods she wants to dunk on him for his concern SO BAD this is the WORST!!! she figures she can probably get away with, though, soft and lightly,] Sure thing, mom. We can trade bandage-wrapping tips, make sure all our respective pieces stay together.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[wow, where is the concern here? he is just stating facts? he doesn't do more than roll his eyes, though]

If anything more than blood seems like it's attempting to fall out of our wounds, we're going to be in trouble after the medic is executed tomorrow.

[good job reading the mood]

[maege]

Eehhh, I'm sure we'll be fine.

[...]

Hey, can I be serious for a sec? No messin' or jokes like usual, none of that. Actual serious.

[but what if it's sincerity again]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[wary, but]

What?

[maege]

[she's all bright smiles, but her voice is soft:] Sorry if I hit a sore spot earlier. Buuut I really appreciated the company and everything the other night, and I'm seriously glad you made it out alive on the other side of that ballot. I know we're all outta here pretty soon, and I'm sure you'll make it through 'til then just fine and all, but—in the meantime, if you decide you aren't being pestered enough, it's not like I'm very hard to pick out in a crowd, got it?

[surprise asshole you fell into her trap and the trap is FEELINGS]

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[well]

[shit]

...Oh.
