Well, ask. Then you'll know. It's better to be honest. So long as like... you're not going to get all weird and shit at him if he doesn't. But I don't know why people aren't just like up front about how they feel. And why wouldn't it be right? He's not like super young or something, right?

Yeah, but I think vids make thing seem simpler. I don't know. I only ever did the relationship thing once, and I was bad at it. I was inattentive and I hurt my boyfriend's feelings pretty bad because I was insensitive and... not into monogamy. So I decided I wasn't going to do the relationship thing any more because I don't like hurting people.

The thing is I'm afraid of being weird because of having no experience with these things. I don't want to screw up the partnership we have. I wouldn't force anything on him of course but still that nagging fear. But no he's rather old for a cephalon of his class.

I just don't know if it'd be for the best or the worst to ask and find out.

I worry about being weird all the time too. I think the thing is... you're gonna get weird one way or another cause you've got these feelings, right? So it's better to just lay it all out and be like hey, I like you, if you don't like me that's totally okay, nothing changes. Most everyone I've talked to about stuff's been pretty cool, like either yes or no and then we just move on with our lives as long as no one makes it a thing.

[But this might work for her because she's powered by sheer force of shining good will and personality and doesn't realize it.]

Well, if you don't ask, are you just gonna like brood about it and get stupid and act weird at him because you've got all these fucking feelings you're swallowing?

I'll try to talk to him about it soon. Hopefully when neither of us are busy so it can be a proper discussion. It would hurt to hear him say no but better than to sulk not knowing.

[He glances away and tries to straighten out equipment to act busy.]

I ugh...we've already kissed. A lot.

Exactly.

[....uh what wait.]

You know, if you've already kissed a lot. Uh. He probably does like you back?

Unless in your culture you just make out with people you hate. Or whatever.

[As if that thought hadn't crossed his mind before.]

Well it's not a lot but more so than I've ever done with anyone. I want to make sure.

And no we don't.

You're the one that said it was a lot. [Aw, cute.] So yeah, just talk about it and be confident. Like, if he's kissing you, he likes you. [Or he's really, really confused. Also possible, maybe, with Ordis.]

I've never done a relationship before. At least one that I can remember. You're right though. I'll try to talk with him soon.

Well, I've only been in the one, so...

Hopefully yours goes better than mine did!

I'm sure you'll find something good someday. You're a good person, Wrath.

Aw, thanks. But I'm just trying to avoid that stuff for myself now. It's better for everyone that way.
