That's not the same as being friends...

[ there are plenty of people here he does not hate but he does not think they're friends. ]

[coastal]

Work with me here...

[she's trying her BEST, tsuru]

[preowned]

Okay, okay....

You can make me dinner.

[coastal]

Well now I won't if you act like you're giving me permission.

[this conversation is going in circles]

[preowned]

Fine. I'll just have Lune summon me dinner.

[ he won't pretend that lune will cook for him ]

[coastal]

[ . . . ]

You and Ookurikara both seem very casual with him.

[it's a little weird]

Is he really that familiar to you?

[preowned]

[ oh he looks really pleased in hearing that?? he knew kara and jiji would hang out but having the confirmation from someone other than the latter is good. ]

Oh, yes. We're intimate.

[coastal]

[she probably fucking trips over something where even are they, probably on their way to the kitchen

anyway she totally just fucking loses her balance and is going to eat shit]

[preowned]

[ oh whoops ]

Was I supposed to catch you still?

[coastal]

[shE'S TOO SURPRISED TO EVEN BE EMBARRASSED

well

embarrassed about falling

her face is red]

Why do you think I needed details on your private affairs?! Aren't you a sword? What are you even saying right now?!

Are we just completely miscommunicating again because you don't know how words work?!

[ kara and tsuru has had two extremely different experiences in learning about romance

he just tilts his head, but then it clicks. ]

Oh! Haha, no. We decided that we were very fond of each other, and then people kept giving him these books and we learned how to do things like kiss. It's been quite the experience to learn about human romance! You're all so funny.

[coastal]

[ . . . . . . . . .

once she's back on her feet

she places her hands on his shoulders]

Please tell Ookurikara what you've learned.

[i hate this]

[preowned]

[ he blinks ]

Okay!

[ he sees no reason to not do this ]

[coastal]

[she just

wheezes

and automatically starts to complain as she resumes their path back to the kitchen]

I've been trying to help him figure it out for weeks! But I don't know if maybe it's just because you're swords and I'm human and it's impossible for me to express it correctly -

Oh, congrats by the way.

You're happy, right?

[preowned]

[ he has to pause to think about it

and his expression softens. ]

Yes. He is very good to me.

[ tsuru is very gay for one moon ]

... as for Kara-bou, he's always been the type to be hesitant to try something he isn't already used to. Although if I'm honest, I'm not sure if I would have figured it out as quickly as I did if my situation was different.

[ as in, if he didn't have so much free time over here ]

[coastal]

... I realized I liked him a while ago, so I told him. [thanks lili] It probably doesn't make a lot of sense, since he's a sword and all but... I don't really see a reason to hide my feelings. But Kaoru told him stuff about feelings that I think got him more confused - and I was selfish and asked him to give me an answer eventually.

If you figured out, could you help him? I don't mind either way but...

[ . . . she would like to know. and maybe she would like for him to like her back, but she's not going to tell anyone that.]

I'm glad that Lune is good to you - I haven't spoken to him. I don't think I'll be able to face him until all of this is over...

[preowned]

I'll give it a try. There's nothing wrong with trying to find a little happiness in times like these.

[ he ships it now, he's decided.

although... hm. ]

Why can't you face Lune though?

[coastal]

[she's about to say something about how she's already happy - because it was nice just to be around him. she didn't really need more than that.

but.

at the question she winces]

... you might get angry with me.

[like.

tsuru in particular might get angry at her.]

[preowned]

Me? Really?

[ it takes a lot to get him mad. ]

What happened?

[coastal]

[lili expects everyone to get mad at her but

she just frowns]

... I know it was foolish now -

But when we were first brought here and told to vote for who we found at fault for what happened to you... I know it was Mary - and it made me angry, because she was corrupted. She would never have been corrupted if she wasn't brought here and with the information we had at the time...

I voted for Lune - because Sol had at least tasked me with pairing the partners the first week, and I already hit him.

[so lune was the only one she had to get back at]

I told Ookurikara to apologize on my behalf - but I'm going to say sorry too, once this is over. Once I've done something to make up for incorrectly placing the blame on someone, and putting them in danger because of some misguided sense of justice. I don't think I can face him until the end.

[ . . . . ]

Sorry, for doing that to someone you care about and who cares about you.

[it's probably a little dramatic considering the fact that lune wasn't even remotely in danger -

but she still can't quite get over it]

[preowned]

[ it's funny, because if tsurumaru had run into mary immediately after he woke up here, he definitely would have attempted to murder her. but thankfully he only spoke to her after he spent some time alone. so hearing lili talk about how she voted for someone else instead of mary is...

funny, in a way. a joke that he isn't sure whether or not he wants to laugh at it. ]

Did you apologize to Sol for hitting him?

[ that is his immediate concern here, because tsuru adores sol. ]

[coastal]

... I did - when he gave me a task in order to heal my partner's broken leg, and a wound that Ookurikara got from the war. He's helped me since then, and I'm more in his debt now than anything...

[she faced sol because she didn't have any choice but to see him. but in general...]

Maybe I should've voted for the universe or something.

[but regardless she shakes her head]

... I was informed it was the wrong decision by spending the next week watching nightmares of everyone I love dying in front of me, similar to the dream we had when we found out what happened to you.

I don't think it's atonement.... but if it makes you feel better, I couldn't sleep easily after that anyway.

[preowned]

The universe is rather cruel. Although I probably don't have to tell you that.

[ they've been reminded of it week after week, after all. ]

And I'm not sure what kind of person you think I am that I would feel better after hearing that... Nothing happened to Lune, so there's nothing to be angry about.

[ the implication is that he would probably be angry if something did happen but

nothing did. so it's fine. ]

[coastal]

.... if someone put a person that I love in danger, or knowingly risked it, I don't know if I could forgive them. Or I wouldn't want them to walk away without consequences.

Even if we're friends.

[ . . . but lili has a habit of being ruled by her emotions]

You're probably a better person than I am.

[preowned]

I don't know about being a better person.

... but I don't think he minds. When you apologize to him, he's probably going to tell you that there's nothing to apologize for.

[ he sounds too fond when saying this. bad. ]

I'll be honest, hearing that you refused to vote for Mary was... interesting, even if I understand why. It was the first trial, and she's a child. It makes sense that people would refuse to do it.
