daggering | w6 curfew

[uses this time to actually get a thread with you which means that also after emotional support-dogging vax he's going to drift over and settle a little closer than normal.]

...what're you gonna do tomorrow?

[since. it's inevitable they'll get split up again.]

[god right

he puts the pikachu doll in riff's lap.]

... I don't know. Maybe try to finish Breath of the Wild. [he slumps, leaning over to rest his head on riff's shoulder.] Maybe... if I go to your archway before we get booted out of here it'll let us stay together?

[pika...a hand comes up to fiddle with its ears.]

It'll keep you busy... [botw is so large? but also, bass slumps and he kind of tilts his head to rest on bass's instead. sure.]

You think? [that actually is an interesting plan.] Worth a try. I want to see if it'll work.

We can try.

[... okay, maybe a bit more quietly, so the others don't hear:]

Hey, you... remembered, right? Too?

[he's looking at pikachu still, but he nods. there's a faint flash of something on his hand, too, but he seems to be thinking.]

Yeah. We...should probably talk. At some point. If you want.

Yeah, I think so. [slow sigh.] Much as I don't want to. If we don't I'm gonna get yelled at again.

[:catte:]

... Kinda cool that we're still best friends even after everything though, right?

[somewhere in the background he is very proud of them both.]

[ glances over here

after everything, this little smile to bass and riff is very proud. ]

[just...a faint kind of grin?]

Yeah. Even if it kinda sucks that we forgot for so long. [but it's fine now. even if he's raising an eyebrow, because...]

...wait, did she yell at you, too?

[SIGHS HEAVILY.]

Yeah, dude, she ripped me a new one.

[rolling his eyes skyward...]

She's good at that. [:unamused:] She's been yelling at me for, like, weeks.

Yeah...

[coughs. little cherry blossom petals come out.]

I guess it worked, though.

[

staring at those petals. lifting both eyebrows.]

...uh huh. [dude.] Anyway...what'd you get back? One of the others must've brought you something, right?

[stop don't fuckin look at his petals THROWS THEM.]

Oh - yeah. Estinien brought me my pin. What about you?

[bro your petals.

but hm. he just kind of pauses. cuddles a little harder. frowns again.]

Can I see yours? Do you have it with you? [does not answer the question, but okay.]

Edited 2022-04-01 04:10 (UTC)

[just... wraps an arm around his shoulders, and frowns.]

Sure, I guess. [he digs the pin out of his pocket and hands it over.] Great dodging, by the way. I heard the skreet of your sneakers as you juked me right there. You been practicing?

Shut up. [he will take the pin! and he will kind of eyeball it. check on it. see what condition it's in while squinting at it.]

...looks pretty good. Still kinda weird even knowing what it's for now. [bass can have his pin back and riff is going to stare into the abyss for a second.]

[UGH.]

Gimme your hand for a sec.

[holds out his hand... suspiciously. don't zap him or something.]

[there's a crack of lightning and bass immediately perishes.

but for real, one hand covers his mouth to cough up some olive petals and fling them into the abyss, and the other drops his broken pin into bass's hand.]

[stares... down at this pin, and then:]

Dude, what the fuck.

[yeah! yeah...]

Marceline brought it back Monday.

[a long pause, and then he just pulls riff closer to hug him better.]

Let's talk about it later, okay?

[taking the pin back, he can probably see better now that the thing on his hand is a rose tattoo. but also, like, he's just settling into that grip and winding himself around bass almost protectively.]

...do me a favor and try really, really hard to stay in my arch tonight.

[so yeah. they'll talk about it later! probably. hopefully.]
