[She turns to face more forward again, so she can lean back against him and so she doesn't have to look directly at him as she chooses her words.]
It's easier to do a lot of things... I'm really glad for it.
And I think it makes sense. I mean, it's not like you were less important to me before, but we didn't have... a reason, or a name for it. There was... this space, where something was missing. It was hard to know how to think of things, and how the other person was thinking of it...
But now... you're my brother. That filled in the space, and it felt really right. Like... "oh, that's what it is." So... even if there's... stuff we're still figuring out, it's easier. Because that part is solid.
[Glory's heart feels like it thuds heavily at attracted, among the swell of other feelings rising in her chest. She struggles for a moment to figure out how to even begin to respond, but actually she's decided before what to call it when the amount of happiness and affection she's feeling is overwhelming like this—]
...I love you, little brother.
[then there's a pause. the rest of it she doesn't have an elegant expression for]
And... you're really hot like that. Th-That is... I have some kind of effect, and the combination of that and it being you is... W-Well, if you wanted to kiss some more, I'd enjoy that a lot, but... you should tell me if it's too far...
[He has to think about that for a moment. About the butterflies in his stomach, how fast his heart beats with the wrongness and rightness of it.]
I... promised Jason I wouldn't. Not-- that I wouldn't with you specifically, but - he's not comfortable with the more than one partner thing. It's hard enough for him that I'm married, and... I owe it to him.
[She's more or less expecting him to decline immediately, so the amount of time it takes him to answer already makes her feel like her heart is in her throat. When he does, it is not a reason she is expecting, and it takes her a moment to process it, leaning back firmly against him like she's anchoring herself]
—Well—of course I wouldn't ask you to break a promise.
[she lets out a surprised laugh too, feathers ruffling in the wind. they've lost a decent amount of speed to the air drag by now, but they're still cruising.]
Mm. Wouldn't want to be insulting with the comparison.
[...]
I'm really happy. Now, and... spending time with you, in general.

Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
It does feel right. It feels comfortable. I love being your little brother.
And... maybe I just keep feeling attracted to big sisters. This can't keep being a coincidence.

Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
I... do love you, Sis. I mean it.
Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
...I know. And I love you, as my brother. That's not going to change no matter what. Everything else is just...
Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
[Gonna wrap his arm around her shoulders and lean his head against hers]
Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
Yeah. Well, maybe hot fudge or something.
Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
Those maraschino cherries are kinda gross, you're right.

Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
[He glances over at her, smiling]
...I'm happy too. Thrilled.
Especially-- when you have great ideas like this.
Re: Day 297 MONSTER BINGO
Now I kind of want to kiss you just to... express how I'm feeling. But... I think you get it.
