Take Initiative.

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?

I can't wait for you to see it! It'll even look pretty where we'll be stepping off at, though if you won't be able to stay outside once the shadows get too long. We usually throw some camo up over the tank so the trolls don't think we're anything special and you stand out.

[...]

Though... we might not have a choice in the matter. If my team's already gone on without me, and I would say they have, we'll be in a bit more trouble. Not that any of you would have to worry about that.

[She'll take care of it like always. Crap buildings wouldn't be the best to stay in, but they're the least likely to have troll nests... Maybe something barricaded though. That might be good. Nothing goes in, nothing comes out.]

...Well, darling, if nothing else you'll get a demonstration of my magic early. If it comes to that.

[...At least he's optimistic.]

[captainobnoxious]

Honey, if nothing else, I fully believe you when you say you'll be fine now. I mean, I believed you before, but... your hologram thing was so cool!

[A small preview of some of his magic. Even if it was... not the kind of face she wanted to see from him ever. At least, not directed at her. Go be a maniac on anything else.]

I'll bet you could level the streets with that! Troll nests wouldn't be a problem no matter their size! It was really really super awesome and I can't wait to see it myself! I'm seriously expecting to see it when we spar too you know! I don't want you holding back on me!

[ratingspoint]

Oh, believe me, that hologram wasn't showing nearly everything I'm capable of, either.

[There is so much goddamn pride in that statement.]

I've actually wanted to fight you for quite some time now, the way we do in the Underground; if anyone can handle it, I think you can.

[captainobnoxious]

[Well, doesn't that vote of confidence just make her the most pleased person in the room.]

Yeah? Is that because I'm worse than a roach when it comes to dying?

[ratingspoint]

Well, that and you're still objectively the best. I wouldn't date you otherwise.

[captainobnoxious]

And your personal opinion of me?

[Subjectively speaking, is she not just the goddamn best.]

[ratingspoint]

Why would I argue with a fact like that?

[Yes, pretty much.]

[captainobnoxious]

Since it's such fact, you'll agree that you're second best when it comes to me, won't you? I mean, you're still the best in my mind, but over all I'm totally on top.

[ratingspoint]

You're going to have to try harder than that, sweetheart.

[captainobnoxious]

I never ran a murdergame.

[... so she's the best overall. There's nothing in how she says it, either. Just fact.]
