S-Sorry, did I... do something wrong...

U-uh, no... [FIDGETS,]

I'm just wondering if this whole time my mom was a succubus and I just didn't realize...

[This is the only explanation for why so many girls like him?? Clearly.]

Oh, um... I know, you seem to have, ah, several admirers, my own dating history here has been surprising too, but I just mean, um, I've gotten to know you better, and, it might seem strange to say, but learning more about you through the relationship we share with Shrike, ah—

Well, I didn't want to rock the boat, with what you had with Shrike, but gradually I realized, it was probably alright to come forward with this, no matter how you responded.

Ah...

[He rubs his nose and, glances down at his feet, not knowing what to do with his gaze, or his arms.]

I... had no idea. I mean-- I maybe I should've guessed after the mistletoe thing. I guess I was too caught up in my own shit, and...

[You'd think, after being the source of so many crushes, he'd know what to do by now.

He doesn't.]

...So, what now?

I thought I was being too obvious about it.

...I don't know? Um. I mean, if you are not interested, that is also okay. But if it isn't objectionable, I wouldn't mind, um, continuing to get to know you for you, not just for our connection to Shrike, or to a Unit I seem to be increasingly tied to.

[Remember how Shrike was like, if you don't tell him, he will NEVER FIGURE IT OUT... yeah.]

I... guess that's okay. Shit's complicated but it's not like you're coming from completely out there.

And I-- I still wanna support you. [Hngh oh no his face is so red]

As far as I know it was a process for you and Shrike to explore this, so...

Um. You understand me, you know what it's like to have another side of you that you struggle to accept. You're kind and supportive and strong, and you have come to support me many times. I realized that I wanted somebody like that beside me. I suppose I came to realize that through seeing how you and Shrike were there for each other, that I wanted this to, um, take a different dimension for us, too?

But we can take our time with it. We can feel it out.

Right. We'll... figure it out.

[He puts a hand on her shoulder, gently,]

This... family we've made, you're part of it too. I am here for you. No matter whatever else, that'll always be true.

Thank you. That is a really good thing to hear.

[He breathes out, heavily, and scratches the back of his neck.]

Well... you feel better? Getting that out?

[The tension seems to ease in Sekhmet as well, as she sinks back into the bench.]

Yes. I do.

Well-- y'wanna get out of here, then? Let's go to the cafe or something - I'll give you a ride.

[ON HIS MOTORBIKE!!!]

O-Oh! Yes, please!

Here, hop on. Er... I don't got any helmets, but it's not like there's traffic 'round here.

...So reckless. But alright.

[She hops on behind him.]

What, you mean the recklessness isn't something you fell for? I have some bad news for you, then.

[Coping with people having feelings for you by, uh, joking about it is legit, right?]

[Absolutely!]

It was obviously your marvelous vocals.

[He smirks,]

Maybe I was meant for the idol biz after all.

Hold on tight!

[VROOOOM AWAY THEY GO]

[She holds tight to his waist, laughing and shouting through the ride as the wind whips through her hair.]

[The sound of her laugh makes him smile too, and he joins in with a loud whoop of his own,]

WOOO--!

[She cheers, throwing her head back. Who knew she would like this so much.]

[Why don't they just take... the scenic route. The cafe's close enough that they'd get there too quickly for her to enjoy this.

So when they finally skid to a stop at their destination, their hair is wind-blasted and maybe a bit numb from the cold]

[She's a bit unsteady as she steps off of the bike, giddy and giggling to herself.]

Wow, that is always such a rush.
