[ ... Yeah, that's not gonna end well. ]

But... Yuno will be there...

[ And if they both app in the same round, they might even be room mates. ]

And I can't do much about that, Amano-san.

[Headtilt.] I don't think she'd buy the parallel universe explanation...would she?

[ He falls quiet for a few seconds, and breaks eye-contact. Even if he's standing fairly close out of courtesy, so she can at least partially see him, enough to at least be able to read his body language. He has a feeling she won't try to stab him or anything; what would be the point, here?

But then, she mentions parallel universes. Is she from the Third World? He's never heard of Paradox, but... he visibly relaxes. ]

If anyone should be able to, it's Yuno. [ Because that's kind of how her entire plan was possible in the first place. ] I just don't think she'll care.

Hmmm. [Tongue-click.] Is she really that unstable?

I'm not going to say anything bad about her.

[ In other words: Yes. You forcibly kissed him right in front of her and then had the Onukata try to... try to do that to her. But then, he notices this Tsubaki has both of her hands. Well. Maybe she's from a different universe, after all. ]

Instability is a fact, not an opinion, you know. The mew you knew had her own fair share of screws loose, isn't that right?

Yeah. [ To say the least. Even so, he still felt kind of bad for her... there was just no way he was going to let her do that to Yuno. ]

Let's just say Yuno won't like us taking very much. [ Even if it's not the same Tsubaki, and this one doesn't even seem that bad. That said, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice... ] But maybe you can show her you're not the same one? Just... be careful if you do.

Oh, I have no plans to speak to her unless it's absolutely necessary. [Hmmph.]

[ He can't say he blames her, to be honest. Maybe he was just secretly hoping they'd learn to get along. He always felt kind of bad about Tsubaki, moreso than most of the other contestants in the survival game. She seemed less like a bad person at heart and more like Yuno, someone who just turned out bad for reasons beyond their control. ]

But mun said if you two app at the same time, you might even be roommates.

I will make do somehow, Amano-san.

[ Oh Tsubaki, that's so much easier said than done when it comes to Yuno. Take it from her boyfriend. Learning how to handle her was a long, hard, painful process, and it's still not something he can do 100% of the time, as much as he does love her. ]

If you ever need me for something... and you probably will, if Yuno finds out you're there... let me know. Okay?

[ He's fairly certain their Future Diaries will work, there, but he doesn't know for sure. If they do... Yuno will know each and every time Tsubaki talks to him, which means he's going to have to work even harder than he thought to keep her calm. ]

You seem to know her best, so I'll trust your judgement. If I need help I will ask you.

... Thanks, Tsubaki. Hey, um... I know the other you was... well... kind of crazy, but... I always felt bad for you. You... deserved better than that.

[congratulations, that manages to stun her for a few seconds. She kind of stands there, her mouth hanging open, eyes wide.]

[She hangs her head a bit, not daring to look him in the eyes.]

Maa...this survival game isn't a good thing for people like you, you know.

Edited 2012-11-22 07:56 (UTC)

... I know. But nobody deserves to go through what you had went through... or what Yuno did, for that mater. She can deny it all she wants, but you two really aren't that different. You were both betrayed by people you trusted, and your parents weren't there for you.

[ Only Yuno's mother was abusive and her father was a neglectful workaholic, and Tsubaki's were murdered. Well, Yuno's were too... just by Yuno herself instead of someone else. ]

I wish Yuno could see that.

[She closes her eyes for a moment, thinking about this. Was she like Yuno? Were they really...similar? As much as even Tsubaki herself didn't want to think about it, Yukiteru was probably right.]

I cannot speak for you, obviously, but out of anyone, it seems...you would be the person to help her see.

Edited 2012-11-22 08:17 (UTC)

I want her to. But she has it in her head that I'm the only person she'll ever need, and vice-versa. Anyone else is unnecessary at best and a threat to our relationship at worst.

[ He doesn't sound as if he regrets it... more that he's sad about it. ]

I love her, Tsubaki. I just want her to be happy.

And you are the person who makes her happy. [ A pause. ]

I'm no expert on romance, frankly. The most advice I can give you is to use that completely swaying loyalty to get her where you want to get her, figuratively speaking.

[ He lowers his eyes when she says that. ]

I used her love and devotion once, Tsubaki. I don't want to do that to her again. All I want is to see her happy. Really happy, for once. She's so afraid of losing me again that she spends more of her time worrying about ways she'll lose than just enjoying her life.
