I think that if they were any more people as monumentally bitchy as me the universe would collapse in on itself.

[conciliates]

Admittedly, regardless of whether or not you are willing to fulfill my reproductory needs, one of you is just about all I can handle. Though I would not call you "bitchy", much less monumentally so, or to a degree that would be able to collapse the universe were it magnified twofold.

[restitchtime]

[she tuts good-naturedly] Give it time. If you've already figured out I'm goddamn difficult to deal with the rest of the revelation's coming up soon.

[conciliates]

Is that so? I'd kind of assumed all parts of the revelation would arrive hand in hand.

[restitchtime]

Nah. Most people are too optimistic to really believe the whole thing at once. They keep thinking 'oh, it can't really be that bad' until it's too late.

[conciliates]

Or maybe you're just not that bad.

[restitchtime]

[that gets a laugh out of her] Sure, and maybe the sky's going to come down around our heads in a few minutes.

[conciliates]

When you consider the way in which both our home planets met their fiery doom, that probably doesn't sound as implausible as you would've liked for it to.

[restitchtime]

Yeah, but we fixed all that. The apocalypse decides to start up again and I'm going to be pretty damn pissed after all the work we poured into patching things up.

[conciliates]

Oh, no, I will definitely be right there with you on the pissed-offment. I'm just saying, it's a proven possibility.

[ she pauses, the tip of one fang pressing into her lower lip ] And anyway, I don't think you're that bad.

[restitchtime]

[she raises an eyebrow] Take off the rose-colored shades, Fussbudget, it doesn't match your outfit.

[conciliates]

I guarantee you that I am not donning any ocular coverings of any coloration at the moment, Rose.

[restitchtime]

Then you're just really determined to have me call you stupid or unobservant, aren't you?

[conciliates]

I don't see why it'd require any significant amount of determination, considering the minimal effort one would have to go to in order to earn a slight from you.

[restitchtime]

I don't either, but that doesn't seem to be stopping you from putting way too much effort into it.

[conciliates]

[ she rolls her eyes ] If anyone here is putting too much effort into anything, it's you into arguing me out of liking you. That's not going to work, you know. I can only hope you realize I'm not here due to some sense of one of your befuddling human brands of antagonism.

[restitchtime]

No? And here I'd gone to all the trouble of locking up my valuables before you showed up. I'm a little disappointed, honestly.

[she will argue people out of liking her all she wants ok!!! Rose Strider is unable to keep friends and that is that!!!1!]

sob BABY

[conciliates]

A pretty useless move to begin with, seeing as I have a chainsaw.

she's a tangle of anger and insecurity and life is hard

[restitchtime]

It's kept people with bullshit space powers out in the past; I'm pretty sure it could stand up to a chainsaw. [ok so her breaking Dave's nose is what kept him out of her stuff, but that's not the point here]

ssh no let me hug you forever (and get my nose broken)

[conciliates]

What about bullshit space powers combined with a chainsaw?

this is probably not an advisable idea

[restitchtime]

That gives me license to use my bullshit time powers combined with the locks to combat your cheating.

BUT IT'D BE SO WORTH IT probably...maybe

[conciliates]

Then what if I just used my space powers? How would your locks be able to hold up against them, anyway? Are they magic?

she'd never forgive you

[restitchtime]

Yeah. They're magically distracting so that I can sneak up and beat the shit out of you.

:""( why you gotta be that way rose baby

[conciliates]

That is pretty magical. Though, with your fatigued state, I do believe the advantage would be mine.

because trust is hard and what am physical affection

[restitchtime]

If you want to take that chance, be my guest. I'll be sure to keep the I told you sos to a minimum.
