Re: Issue 20 Preview. AKA - muse and mun refuse to stop laughing

 I don't know why everyone's so surprised, really.

I mean, I told him to be as chalant as he liked when we were kids.  Of course I'm gonna take my own advice.

...

...and, no, 50 Shades of Grayson is a horrible ship name.

Hold it over your head to get what I want.

[...at least she's honest about it?]

[leftthenest]

You're not tall enough.

[Zing.]

[arbadacarba]

And just how many years were you waiting to be able to use that line on somebody?

Which, by the way, is completely untrue. I can fly, remember?

[leftthenest]

Only a few.

Flying isn't the same as being tall.

[arbadacarba]

It's good enough for me.

I could fly up so high, even you'd never be able to catch me.

[leftthenest]

But the question is: would you?

[arbadacarba]

Maybe. Maybe not.

[leftthenest]

You'd leave and break my heart?

[arbadacarba]

I'm sure your heart would go on. [and on and ooooooooon~]

[leftthenest]

You have a lot of faith in my heart.

[arbadacarba]

Of course I do.

You trusted me with it once, didn't you?

[...and here's where she gets a little sappy. Enjoy it while it lasts.]

[leftthenest]

[Here comes the mush.]

Of course.

And, one day, maybe again.

[arbadacarba]

Are you offering...?

[leftthenest]

I don't know. Are you offering to take the offer?

[arbadacarba]

I...don't know.

[leftthenest]

Right.

It's always a possibility, whenever you figure out if you're offering to take the offer.

[arbadacarba]

[She smiles weakly]

Sometimes, I almost wish you wouldn't be like this. It's not fair.

[leftthenest]

Be like what?

[arbadacarba]

You know what.

[leftthenest]

[Sighs.]

I can't be anything other than what I am.

[arbadacarba]

I know.

That's why it's not fair.

[leftthenest]

[Small, sad smile]

Sorry.

[arbadacarba]

Yeah, I'm sure you are.

[A small, sad smile she returns]

...maybe. One day.
