[ sometime after natsuo's body was found, stephanie will make her way varian's room. she is really hoping he is in here because if she came all this way for nothing that'll be very unfortunate. ]

Hey. Varian?

Comments

[vigilantics]

Varian... after what we've been through, I don't think I can forgive myself if I don't do that.

[alchemenace]

[ oh. ]

Oh.

[ oh. ]

... You don't have to do that for real. You just, just coming with me was... was really nice. Despite everything else.

[vigilantics]

Well, we're friends, aren't we? I wouldn't let you go alone.

[ yeah, she didn't want him getting hurt and she was essentially babysitting him. but steph would have done the same thing for someone her own age or older-- they're friends. ]

[alchemenace]

... Yeah. Heh. You say that now, but just wait until I try to drag you somewhere else.

[ ha ha. funny jokes. (or is it.) ]

[vigilantics]

Well. Maybe you can introduce me to your yeti friend?

[alchemenace]

Yeah. We should go live with him. It seemed like a nicer place than here.

[vigilantics]

Oh, good. I hope he's looking for roommates.

[alchemenace]

He has to have extra room, it looked like his kids were all grown. From the pictures. [ a beat ] ... Or maybe they weren't, but we won't take up much space.

[ how do yeti work ]

[vigilantics]

I'm not sure how much he charges for rent but it can't be that bad.

[alchemenace]

It probably costs less than our lives? So that's something.

[vigilantics]

Wow...

Let's pack our bags.

[alchemenace]

I'm ready to leave when you are.

[vigilantics]

-- ah, should we bring our partners?

[ just in case the dead partner thing is still in effect with yeti. idk why she is being so thorough for a joke. ]

[alchemenace]

...Yes, but Hikage isn't allowed to complain.

[ idk but he's going along with it ]

[vigilantics]

He's probably going to complain about not being allowed to complain.

[ hikage complains a lot ]

[alchemenace]

That's a lot of complaining.

[vigilantics]

My partner... does his best.

[alchemenace]

To complain?

[vigilantics]

... yes.

I'm going to give him an award one day.

[alchemenace]

For the man who has a complaint about everything?

[vigilantics]

That could go on a t-shirt.

[alchemenace]

We could make him one when we move to the yeti's.

[vigilantics]

Oh, you're right! I'm sure he has actual supplies.

[alchemenace]

Like blank T-shirts.

[ how does varian know what a t-shirt is. shut up ]

[vigilantics]

Exactly! Although if it's a yeti, he might have sweaters instead...
