[ so, belph might be minding his own business when steph suddenly approaches him... and then immediately drags him away to somewhere private. ]

Dude, what exactly did you say to Varian?

Comments

[vigilantics]

What do I need to do to get you to compliment me on your own?

[axilium]

A secret makes a man a man!

[vigilantics]

I think this is one secret that can be revealed, Belph.

[ pls you already have like fifty of them. ]

[axilium]

Then I hate to disappoint you by revealing that I don't know the answer.

[vigilantics]

[ okay that does actually get a laugh out of her. ]

Are you telling me that you never look at me and think, "wow I need to tell Stephanie how cool and awesome and funny and cute she is"?

[axilium]

I may or may not occasionally have the urge, but I do have remarkable self-control.

[vigilantics]

You can live on the wild side every now and then!

[ she nudged him slightly. ]

I won't judge.

[axilium]

You would be in absolutely no position to judge me to begin with.

[vigilantics]

I have never once had any difficulty with telling you that you're great?

[ except for when she's making fun of him by calling him a nerd but ]

[axilium]

You live on the wild side in various other ways, Steph.

[vigilantics]

Do I?

[ she taps her chin with her free hand. ]

I don't recall.

[axilium]

I could be very mean right now, but I'll refrain.

[vigilantics]

Be mean to me.

[ it could be funny. ]

[axilium]

[gestures to steph's leg or lack thereof.]

[vigilantics]

I didn't need it.

[ :/ ]

[axilium]

[he kind of recalls a conversation that suggested otherwise, but he's not mean enough to bring that up.]

I'm sure. You could set a trend.

[vigilantics]

Wanna join? We can match!

[axilium]

Are you offering to cut off my leg?

[vigilantics]

I'm just saying that the offer is there?

[axilium]

I didn't know you had such morbid hobbies.

[vigilantics]

I'll endure it just for you.

[axilium]

Are you the one enduring or am I?

[vigilantics]

You'd probably pass out, so it's definitely me.

[ she'd know? ]

But it's fine. I'll even kiss it so it feels better.

[axilium]

I really don't need to hear about your kinks.

[vigilantics]

[ okay, that makes her laugh. ]

Not even a little curious?
