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?

[... Well, okay, Sigrun can't resist coming over to the screen herself after a time, drawing a flower with her finger against it out of habit.]

Hi, Glory. I... wanted to thank you, actually. You were a big help today.

[And such a long day it's been, jesus christ.]

I couldn't have done this without everything you told me about yourself. Er, the yourself that was created, I guess. And... it's not fair to say you betrayed me or anything like that, so I'm not mad at you either. You were actually a nice shoulder to lean on. So to say. It was nice to know that I wasn't the only one who did something stupid for love at the time.

[... Even if it ended up being the Kingmaker's memories, or some other gamerunner's. She is not as much of a disaster as she could have been looking at them.]

[trustharder]

HELLO, SIGRUN.
IT'S NICE TO NOT BE ALONE IN HAVING THOUGHTS LIKE THAT. RIGHT?

[...It takes her a moment of thinking, but eventually...well. This happens.]

[captainobnoxious]

[oh my god

she got a flower even now, that is adorable, it's too bad she can't take you home herself, but have a drawn heart!!!]

Right! I figure you might've done the same for other groups at some point of time. Maybe. [...] Did you?

[trustharder]

I DIDN'T TALK TO THEM MUCH LAST TIME. IT WAS A VERY SHORT GAME.

[THANKS TO THE KINGMAKER DISASTER DUO.]

BUT THE TIME BEFORE THAT I DID, YES.

[captainobnoxious]

[WELL NO ONE'S PERFECT]

Did you consider them your friends, too?

[trustharder]

AS MUCH AS I CAN BE CONSIDERED FRIENDS WITH ANYBODY, GIVEN THE CIRCUMSTANCES.

[captainobnoxious]

Hmmm. Lemme ask it this way, then. In your personal opinion, were you friends? Give it some thought.

[trustharder]

. . . . . . . .
I DON'T KNOW.
I WAS FRIENDS WITH A FEW PEOPLE.
ALL OF THE GAMERUNNERS HAVE BEEN MY FRIENDS.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE PEOPLE IN THE GAMES.
I THINK IF YOU'RE HELPING TO RUN SOMETHING LIKE THIS YOU CAN'T BE FRIENDS WITH THE PEOPLE IN IT.
CAN YOU?

[captainobnoxious]

I don't see why not, really. You're friends with anyone who you enjoy spending time with. You just also have to accept that it's gonna be messy once things come out, but if you think it's worth the risk... Well, I mean, I know a few idiots who could've done without getting attached to people.

[Mettaton and Black.]

But they knew what they were doing when they did it. So why not? If you want to call them your friends, then call them your friends. I'd like to be your friend anyway, Glory. Just personally.

[trustharder]

. . . . . . . .
WE CAN BE FRIENDS IF YOU WANT.

[Another one of those flowers!]

[captainobnoxious]

Then we're friends. And look, I didn't even have to run a murder game for it!

[Hahaha. Ha.]

... I do still wanna save you though, you know, but there's nothing in my world that can handle you. I just don't want you to be alone.

[trustharder]

DON'T WORRY. I WON'T BE.
I'VE TALKED TO SOME OF THE OTHERS, LIKE BLACK AND BRUCE AND YOSUKE.
SO I WILL STILL BE BUSY!

[captainobnoxious]

[Awww. She knew she could count on her crew.]

Good. What's your code on teasing people?

[trustharder]

. . . . . . . .
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

[captainobnoxious]

If I ask you to tease someone for liking someone else, would you?

[trustharder]

MAYBE. WHO IS IT?

[captainobnoxious]

[eheheheh]

So. Yosuke and Black really like each other, but I'm kind of sworn off of teasing of them. There's also Kamui and Zagi, who might be together? Zagi's at least head over heels for him, as someone who knows what that's like, and Colress and Tarrlok have... something, I think. Yato made a chart of who liked who once.

[The Shipping Chart.]

But of them, I think you have the best chance of teasing Yosuke, Black, and Colress. I can't see the other people coming over to talk.

[trustharder]

[Ahhh.]

SORRY, SIGRUN, BUT UNFORTUNATELY NOT.

[captainobnoxious]

[Aw.]

Worth a shot. You're a better person than me though, Glory. [pat pat] I'll try to visit when I can too, when I'm not dealing with the two biggest disasters I've ever met.
