You're wonderful.

An amazing person.

He's always going to adore you.

How can he not?

[ She starts to say something, only to visibly stop herself. ]

... No takebacksies. I know that ...

But still ...

[ She runs her fingers across the skate, uncertain. Almost delicate. Then the arcade machine, and the pendant. ]

The cupcake felt like opening a door. The ice skate ... like a leap of faith. [ Taps the arcade machine. ] Getting punched in the gut. [ The pendant ... ] Taking a stand. [ And brutal revenge. ]

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

[He edges closer to her.]

Its not like the memories will be gone. The ones you don't use. I don't think he'd do that to himself.

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

[ She shakes her head. ]

Mm. That's not what I'm worried about. I'm just -

Fussy.

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

You don't want to feel like you're cheating.

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

Don't wanna feel like I'm cheating.

Don't wanna feel like I'm taking the easy route to avoid making waves, when sometimes ... sometimes you have to.

[ Back over to the scaffolding plans. ]

Sorry, I ... I know I'm going around and around in circles here.

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

Its hard.

Its tempting. To make sure things are solid. Stable.

When you feel like it shouldn't be so easy.

Sometimes you just...have to commit when you have the impulse.

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

Right. Sometimes you have to commit.

[ ... she says, still hesitating, because Oh No. ]

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

....want me to count down and the first thing you say is what goes in?

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

[ Shakes her head. ]

No. I - thanks, but I think I need to make the decision properly. One way or another.

Sorry, Donnie. It's probably annoying to watch this.

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

You're never annoying.

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

- I'm very capable of being annoying!

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

You're never annoying unless you're trying.

1/2

[bluediligence]

That's objectively-

[ clicks a button on a keychain ]

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

PILLOWFORT!

[ Clicky button created an INSTANT PILLOWFORT. Very soft and enjoyable and big enough to share!! ]

[ excuse her, she's diving right the fuck in there ]

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

[Ooooh.]

[Will follow her into the pillowfort.]

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

Macchan really meditated his butt off for us ...

[ she says while actively burrowing and burying herself, thermos and all ]

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

He really did.

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

How is he this cool? It should be illegal.


[ f l o p s ]

... Cupcake.

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

He is really cool.

[Metal hands pat her shoulders.]

Cupcake. Okay.

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

[ They're so tense, Donnie. They are SO tense. ]

None of us had any real idea what we were doing or where we were going, but we still ... we still dove in anyway. Decided to try, and took a chance on hope.

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

....which memory is the cupcake one?

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

When I first met him.

Re: Lobby

[othellovonryan]

[He nods.]

There was...

A lot then.

[He took off battleshell.]

[The parent aged adult vibes were REAL.]

Re: Lobby

[bluediligence]

"A lot" is an understatement.

Less "opening a door," more ... grabbing each other's hands and running.
