So let's review, mun...

You've screwed things up so badly this time that not only am I confused, but you're confused, too. You thought you had everything - including me and my relationships with two girls - figured out.

But you didn't and you still don't.

Look, at this point, somebody's feelings are probably going to get hurt and you know who I'm gonna blame? You. You had to go and do things like get me assaulted with flying mistletoe to force what you thought were going to be "hilariously awkward lip locking moments." Yeah, well, good job. They were awkward. One way more than the other because of all my ex-girlfriend issues.

Seriously, how about you stop messing with things and leave my love life alone? Just let me try to figure this out on my own, okay?


PS: Your plurk display name is just plain wrong. Knock it off.

oops i accidentally

[airtempered]

I'm afraid it's never that simple, even when left to your own devices. It's a luxury to have someone to blame other than yourself.

...GODDAMMIT

[deusrexmachina]

[ACK.]

[Okay, keep calm. At least you didn't mention any names. This will be okay as long as that continues to be a thing. NO NAMES.]

Y-Yeah, I'm kinda getting that impression. I'm not even sure how this got to be a problem in the first place, to be honest.

[samgoinggreen]

[She knows who at least one of these girls is.

Her initial inclination is to threaten him, tell him not to break her heart lest he face the wrath of a twenty-something red-head. But eh. Clover likes him, so she'll play nice.]

Just be honest with them. I doubt this is their first rodeo.

[deusrexmachina]

[OH SHI--]

[It's not his fault! He's not even sure how this all even got started! WHAT IS GOING ON ANYMORE.]

Er, yeah. Maybe.

Well. I think for one of them it...kinda is, though.

[Because that mistletoe kiss? WAS HER FIRST KISS. ...YYYEEAAAHHH.]

[disneyface]

Rex! You aren't cheating on someone, are you?

[deusrexmachina]

[KLJDFHLKJSF]

I--what?! NO! How can I be cheating on someone if I'm not even dating anyone to begin with!?

[5dontlie]

In need of some advice, Machine Boy?

[deusrexmachina]

[He's got such a huge headache about now... Oh man. Not sure about this, but...]

Given one of the people in this weird triangle is the person I would have gone to for advice? You know what? Yeah, because I can't ask her and almost everyone else I know is even more clueless about relationships than I am.

[Not!Dad and Not!Mom are right out. They can't even get together with each other. Big brother thinks you can use math in make out sessions. And Uncle #1 and Uncle #2... Well, Death and Xemnas. SPEAKING OF MATH, DO THAT AND SEE HOW IT DOESN'T WORK.]

[adarkfallenstar]

Trouble in Paradise?

[deusrexmachina]

...a little tough to find trouble in it when I'm not even there to begin with.

It's just trouble, period.

[ink_check]

Since when do our mundanes ever give us a break?

Still, that's a rough spot to be in...

[deusrexmachina]

They don't, but I'm hoping she's confused enough that she'll actually back off this time. I don't think she knows what she wants, even. Not that it should matter what she wants, since it's not her social life.

Yeah, I...don't know what to do about it. This would be a lot easier if I was still taken. Or if I didn't like one of the girls. Or if one or both of them didn't like me.

[pineapplesalmon]

... It's still weird to think of you being old enough to have a love life.

[deusrexmachina]

Yeah, well. I'm almost eighteen, hermano.

[sixthdeadliest]

This is why I try not to get involved in romance.

[At least he's not popcorn.gif'ing?]

[deusrexmachina]

I actually tried not to let this get out of hand.

...it did, anyway.

[nofightingdestiny]

I'd say as long as you come out of it without any homicidal feelings from the ladies in question, then you came out ahead, kiddo.

[deusrexmachina]

I'm a liiittle worried you might be right, like that really is best case scenario.

Any advice on managing that, uh, whoever you are?

[kingofnightmares]

That will power of yours must have slipped away, hm?

Having a relationship with two girls. You have to break one of their hearts at some point. [Tsks.] How sad.

[deusrexmachina]

Pfft, not like I asked for this. And what'd you mean "slipped away"? I still have plenty of will power!

[softspotfordinner]

Are you considering another... date?

[deusrexmachina]

If I do, it definitely won't be with you. You've gotten enough of my blood already!

[andnowisee]

I don't think relationships ever tend to be simple. My brother had a lot of girls that liked him while we were at Ashford.

My Father... well, he had a lot of wives and consorts.

[Like... a hundred and eight, if she remembers correctly.]

[deusrexmachina]

I seriously don't get how the multiple wives and consorts thing works. I mean, it's gotta be nice at first, getting so much attention from that many ladies...but how the heck does anyone keep up with that?

[Three years ago, he would have thought that having dozens of ladies would have been THE best thing. Now? ...not so much.]

[wallcrawler]

This is going to end badly and, as far as I know, there's nothing you can do about it. Seriously.

[There's really no words of encouragement here, but he's definitely been there.]

It'd be best if you just get it over with as soon as possible.

[deusrexmachina]

Seriously? Man...

Not a decision I wanna rush into, deciding on one, but not like I wanna tell them both "no" either.
