Well, I don't have that many bad ideas.

[ yes he does, he so does. he leans against the side of the bed, idk. still worried but !!! he's trying. ]

Of course. [ He opens his mouth to apologize for panicking and then thinks better of it, ] So that's it? Is it fun vision storytime?

Unless you had any other questions.

Considering you're planning on making another fire I think my "please do not walk into anymore fires" request~~ion~~ will be ignored.

[ it's said more teasingly than not ]

I promise not to walk into this one. Fair?

... Fair, but we're revisiting and reupping after this one as needed.

Fair.

[leans over to give him a quick kiss]

I'm okay. Promise.

[ okay he'll definitely take that. easy distraction a+, he gives half a laugh and smiles. ]

I can see that.

[ opens mouth, closes it. ] - I'm not going to apologize for worrying. I'm so justified.

But, okay, you're supposed to have visions to share.

To be fair I would probably have the same reaction if you told me the same thing, so - fair enough. But I promise I would've told you earlier if anything bad had happened.

[stands up to grab a teddy bear and a flower, along with his phone]

You said clicking the email would show me one, right?

I'd like to think I wouldn't jump into a fire.

[ he's teasing, grabbing a piece of the snacks a nd his drink. the flower is curious but for all he knows gingham still has visions from before he arrived. he nods. ]

Yeah. Be careful about accidentally forwarding it, though? I think someone else will be able to see it if you do.

Ah, jeez. Thanks for telling me - I'll be careful.

[takes the teddy bear and squeezes it

goes red]

Oh my god.

[ Watches him shift to the bear as he puts his drink down to watch. ]

[ Look, he knows Gingham has practically said his visions aren't As Worrying but there is still Worry. So he's ??? watching carefully and - ]

[ Blinks. That's not a bad expression but also: ]

What happened? - I mean. If you want to say.

[groans and then tosses him the teddy bear

it's just this]

I can't forgive him. Please tell me I'm not that embarrassing.

[ catches it. looks at the bear because he's ??? only ever viewed someone else's visions accidentally ]

[ back up, opens mouth. decides not to say it and presses the button. ]

[ give him a moment to try not to laugh. he is mostly successful. ]

Well.

I mean. He's not wrong. He's super attractive.

[ helpful ]

[grabs a pillow off his bed and shoves his face into it for like five seconds before resurfacing]

Okay, fair point, but - first off you're the cutest person on this boat but even if anyone here was cuter, which is impossible, I'd like to think I wouldn't act like that!

So he was absolutely poisoned and that's the explanation I'm accepting.

[ okay, well NOW he absolutely is laughing. even if he colors plenty at that compliment and rolls his eyes. ]

I'll happily take that compliment, thank you.

[ First and then moves to like at least try to take his hands. ]

Two. You're not that embarrassing. Out loud anyway. And it'd be super cute if you were, as it stands I've done way more embarrassingly gay panic things on this ship than you have.

[takes his hands easily, with a smile even if it's embarrassed]

You can't say that without giving me at least one story and—

Nooooo what did I say not out loud.

[ Opens mouth.

The second part can wait. ]

Did you seriously forget my embarrassing crush confession already? Or like, the time I said I love you? Really? Cause it lives in my head rent free.

[ it's teasing partly (and partly to keep the second part on reserve) ]

Okay fair enough but if you don't answer the second part I'm never going to be able to sleep at night again.

...

And if I do tell you. You will also likely never sleep again at night.

I'm going to walk into the ocean.

No.

No. You are not allowed to do that. It's not even that weird? Like, I think everyone does it at least once.

On a scale of one to ten, how much worse is it than anything I could be imagining?

[ ...fortunately(?) gingham rolled a 15 on if he'd say anything so he's trying not to look amused ]

... I'd say married names and weddings are on about the same level, right? So.

[ he does not scale it (because he does not necessarily think it's bad) ]

Edited 2025-01-20 07:29 (UTC)

...I thought about it just now didn't I.

Yeaaah.

But I mean it's been kind of an ongoing affair?

[ he's not helping. ]

If it makes you feel better, I hear way worse.

[ this is also not helping. ]
