Take Initiative.

[trustharder]

It seems things have been resolved - peacefully, if more than a little awkwardly for most parties involved. However, there's still work to do here, isn't there? Ryuunosuke shrugs after a long moment; tips his head up a bit. "Hey, Glory? Let everyone up." And apparently that's all it takes, though what that actually does isn't something that happens all at once - rather, panels slide out from the wall, forming a staircase up to that balcony they've been standing on. Mettaton doesn't really wait for the others to join them; he just leaves back through that section of wall they entered from, calling something back over his shoulder. "We've got another room to work from back here, darlings, this shouldn't take too long to work out." >Follow?

[YES, IT IS.]

That's bad! What if he tells Mettaton? I don't need him thinking anything funny about it!

[penduli]

He won't tell! ...probably! Maybe Mettaton would think it's sweet or—something? I don't know, you two were always so weird.

[captainobnoxious]

I don't see what was so weird about us.

[sigrun

sigrun there was not a single thing that wasn't weird about you two]

[penduli]

Everything was weird, Miss Sigrun.

Everything.

[captainobnoxious]

Name three things.

[penduli]

[ YOU KNOW HE'S NO GOOD AT ON-THE-SPOT THINGS. ]

You're a human and a robot, you two were at each other's throats one day and then buddies the next, and you considered yourselves dating because you talked to him, gave him gifts, and liked hanging out with him. And he accepted that as perfectly legitimate reasoning, apparently.

[captainobnoxious]

[...]

Is all of that really weird?

[penduli]

...it certainly isn't normal.

[captainobnoxious]

... You have a point. Never thought I'd be dating the biggest asshole I'd ever met, either.

[Robots aren't normal in her world. But the everything else is pretty normal tbh.]

That was the only weird thing though. Us being a robot and a human.

[technically a ghost turned robot and a human but you know what

secret she's taking to the grave]

[penduli]

[ that was not the only weird thing.

but fine. ]

Especially since you'd just gotten through talking about how we'd need to get with each other to restart the world's population a week or so before.

[captainobnoxious]

[..........]

Are you sayin' that I'm the weird part of this, or. What. Come on, lay it straight. Even if you're not.

[penduli]

[ ...you

you had to. ]

You and Mettaton are both the weird part of this. [ look, it's even in bold, that means it's important and true. ]

[IT SAID GABRIEL WAS DEAD ONCE

THAT SHIT IS HALF-TRUTH AT BEST]

The guy you like made a character who was raised by raptors and proceeded to do voices for each.

[penduli]

[ FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, GABRIEL KNIGHT WAS DEAD.

JUST. NOT QUITE. ]

He's creative. [ ..........this is the nice way to put it. ]

[captainobnoxious]

And Mettaton's hard to put into words.

[... there is a similarly nice way to put it]

[penduli]

[ ... ]

Fair's fair.

[captainobnoxious]

[That's what she thought. Black is getting a solid kiss on his cheek.]

You should go say hello to your crush. I've gotta get up and go give everyone I want hugs.

[penduli]

[ Gross. ]

I'll let him get his bearings first—I have some people to check on, and something to ask Glory about. [ Since her screen's right there and all. ] But I will. Need help getting up?

[captainobnoxious]

Please and thank you, sweetheart. I'll talk to Glory later myself. I've got a few things to say to her.

[Help her up, boyo.]
