Not really a fan of theirs.

[ understandable. ]

... I'll talk to them about it. I'm not sure how quiet they would want to keep this, but it'll get outed as soon as anyone sees your hand anyway.

[shiftingwinds]

Right - there's really not any hiding it. Anyone who doesn't notice during the week would probably notice at the trial.

[at the strip check, anyway...]

...it just seemed like something that would be good for you to know. [there's a beat, and then -] This doesn't really have anything to do with that, but I suppose since we're both here now I may as well ask.

Aoi said that on Saturday you told her that... [she hesitates] Ming-xiong and I were together? ...was that because we were obviously cursed and you were trying to stop her from doing something she'd regret?

[dotcom]

[ aoi you truly do not know how to keep your mouth shut ]

Oh, that. Pretty much. I was also admittedly curious as to how effective the curse was overall... she really had no problems with it, but I think that was more her personality than anything...

[ aoi exhausts him. ]

I won't remotely pretend I know what your relationship with him is like.

[shiftingwinds]

Oh, so that's what it was.

[phew!]

It's not like that, and I don't think he'd like it if he heard people assuming it was, so I'm glad it's not something that people actually think.

[dotcom]

[ ... ]

I'm fairly certain people do actually think that.

[shiftingwinds]

[


she facepalms]

[dotcom]

It can't be that surprising. The two of you are obviously close, so rumors will arise.

[shiftingwinds]

...

[hhhh. for all she hangs off of ming yi, she doesn't really look as pleased by that as one might expect.]

...he's really not going to like hearing that...! Ahaha, I hope those rumors don't make it to his ears.

[dotcom]

[ hmmm ]

Do you have feelings for him? Does he have any for you? I don't particularly care about the details, but is there any truth at all?

[shiftingwinds]

[



this tag just put both sqx and me in the ground.]

[dotcom]

[ he's just

waiting ]

[shiftingwinds]

...it's a bit complicated, but if you don't particularly care about the details, I don't think I ought to bore you with them...

[she's trying to be considerate of the things he doesn't care about!!]

But the truth of the matter is we don't actually have that sort of relationship. [...] I asked mainly because it surprised me to hear that you were the one who told Aoi that, honestly.

[she'd kind of been expecting to hear her say it was mineo or something.]

[dotcom]

He was just the most obvious person to use as an example. But I'll keep that in mind.

[ hmmm ]

Want to hear something funny?

[shiftingwinds]

...sure?

[something funny? is sasazuka considering becoming a stand-up comedian...?]

[dotcom]

Gluttony implied the two of us should date.

[ it's absolutely hysterical ]

[shiftingwinds]

Why would they say something like that?

[dotcom]

They were trying to tease me about something, so they suggested you.

It was very funny.

[shiftingwinds]

You'd think they'd know better. That sort of teasing only works on a person if they're at least a little interested, and you're not interested in me at all.

[or so she assumes, anyway. missed the mark, gluttony!]

I'm glad you found it funny - we could all use things to laugh at these days.

[dotcom]

I'm not, but I do actually understand why they suggested you in particular.

[ anyway moving on ]

But I do wonder who else people are pairing you off with.

[shiftingwinds]

[she looks a little surprised and a lot curious, but it would be kinder to just go with the change of subject, since he wouldn't have changed it if he wanted to talk about it!

just know that i personally am dying and cannot wait for unlocks]

...no one, I hope...?

[dotcom]

[ he doesn't seem like he believes it, but. ]

Well, don't worry about it. At least you're no longer cursed.

[shiftingwinds]

...I just hope Aoi will be alright.

[dotcom]

She has friends who'll check on her.

[shiftingwinds]

[she just feels bad that she's in a state to need to be checked on]

You're not wrong about that. She has more people who care about her than I think she may realize.

[dotcom]

It's not surprising that people would want to protect the one who's the easiest target.
