When: Feb 6, evening

[The last time this girl appeared on the network, she was in quite a hot rage, so it might be odd to see her looking quiet and pensive now. Sad, despite a slight smile, to those who really look closely.]

I've been away for awhile - don't ask, I don't quite understand it myself - but apparently I've come back just in time for Valentine's Day to be around the corner. And normally I'd be the last person to bring up something like this, but...

[But what? She doesn't say, just asks her question.]

... have you ever been in love? What were they like? What really made you think "My god, this is the one" when there are so many other people out there who might've been just as good? And I mean, if you're in love right now and you still want to answer, it needn't be past tense. I suppose - I just don't quite understand this either, I never have, but that doesn't stop it from happening.

[She appears to be at a loss for a moment, before shaking her head and chuckling to herself.]

My mates would laugh themselves sick if they could hear me now.

[And that's all.]

You were a cad when we first met. Maybe not now.

[There's a smile in her voice.]

"Rascal," I guess, but that makes you sound like a misbehaving pittin.

[falconing]

I -- [ and wait for this because the way han says it, it's truly something to be proud of ] -- have been introducing you as the better half.

[imahologram]

[Which...it kind of is, actually. At the very least, she thinks it's sweet, and the mix of surprise and affection in her expression shows it.]

And here I've just been calling you my friend. [Just joking! Or is she.]

1/2

[falconing]

... really.

[ COME ON ]

2/2 INTERNET COME ON

[falconing]

Maybe I'll drop the sweet talk, then.

[imahologram]

Well, no one told me you were going around calling me your better half.

[What could be indignation is mostly playfulness today.]

I'd say "boyfriend," but that sounds so juvenile.

[falconing]

I didn't think I'd have to ask permission.

[ mockingly ]

You can steal my phrase, I won't complain.
