what kind of face are you making?

[loosestrifes]

If only there were some way you could know~

A cute one, though. Miss it?

[skinstitch]

maybe i do. cute people always get missed.

[loosestrifes]

Do they? Maybe I'm not cute after all, then.

I do miss you, though. For whatever that might be worth.

What's on your mind, Dabi?

[skinstitch]

what's on yours? you got sulky all of a sudden, pumpkin.

[loosestrifes]

Too much, I suppose. Maybe I'll kill someone about it.

I'm not sulky.

( a pause )

Do you only maybe miss others too?

[skinstitch]

not answering until you vomit your brains out all over me.

[loosestrifes]

I hope that's metaphorical.

You said words don't matter compared to actions, which is true enough. But they do still matter, so I pay attention.

Not just the maybe thing, though it would be easy to convince anyone that's all I care about.

"Cute people always get missed." It made me wonder what sort of mindset you're in right now, and who I might blame for it. That's all.

[skinstitch]

what if it's you?

you didn't tell me you missed me until now.

[loosestrifes]

That's not fair. I told you I liked you. I tell you you look nice. I say plenty unprompted.




Did I do something, really?

( He thinks that maybe he's worrying too much over this, but he also can't stop. )

[skinstitch]

oh, we're back to that word.

you didn't do a thing.

[loosestrifes]

I could use a different word. Or do you prefer me to not say either?

You're not telling me what you're thinking.

[skinstitch]

i prefer you just be honest, whatever that is.

i'm thinking that something's wrong. what's wrong? you're unhappy.

[loosestrifes]

Sorry. I'm a bit messier than usual lately.

I guess I'm just jealous.

[skinstitch]

jealous of what?

[loosestrifes]

( he gets annoyed again, at first, because from his side of things it must be obvious. he must know. )

Your little boyfriend or whatever

[skinstitch]

my what.

[loosestrifes]

Did I stutter?

[skinstitch]

he's never used that word. no one has. so you're pissed at me for something that isn't real?

[loosestrifes]

First of all, I'm not mad at you. I didn't say I was, right?

Second of all, he didn't use the word either, but he certainly made it sound that way. I'm "allowed" to spend time with you, though, so I suppose I should ignore all of his comments on it and be happy.

You knew who I meant even without him ever saying as much to you?

[skinstitch]

you only get upset about him.

[loosestrifes]

Well he keeps going on about you choosing him over me, you know. Can't I be upset over that?

[skinstitch]

i don't even know what to do with that.

[loosestrifes]

I thought you were. Together, I mean. Sorry.

But you're not, then?

[skinstitch]

i'm alone.
