[Terezi has just lost to Sollux for about the fifth time. She sighs dramatically as she drops her controller and flops backwards.]

[...Not that winning against a blind girl counts, really. She grins over at him, poking at his side.]

Comments

[thekidsare0kay]

[Oh well, that wasn't quite what he intended to do. He didn't think Terezi would think it was anything other than a joke]

Uh... Nothing, really...

[scalemate]

[She sits upright, scooting closer and tugging on his arm.]

Liar! Tell me!

[thekidsare0kay]

[Ugh, rude]

Promithe you won't be pithhed at me, okay?

[scalemate]

[Oooohhh dis gun b gud!]

I promise. Tell me!

[thekidsare0kay]

[Squirming] Okay, I thort of...confronted Karkat about jerking you around. And punched him in the fathe. And threw him around a little with my pthionicth.

[scalemate]

[Oh. Well.

Actually, she really doesn't get mad. In fact, it makes her feel a little warm and fuzzy. Also, Karkat probably deserved it. She's frowning, though.]

Why?

[thekidsare0kay]

[Blushing] I don't know...becauthe he pithhed me off? I thought maybe I could help him...and you...I mean, if he wath actually flushed for you. But he wath jutht a douchebag.

[scalemate]

[Okay, she can't help but giggle at that.]

He probably deserved it! I punched him, too.

[thekidsare0kay]

He definitely detherved it! He thaid thomething about how he wath jutht enjoying himthelf!

[scalemate]

[OH.]

He said what?

[thekidsare0kay]

...I thaid why would he have methhed around with you like that if he didn't like you, and he thaid you didn't need to be flushed to enjoy yourthelf. [He blushes and looks down, unhappy on her behalf]

[scalemate]

[WOW. Now she looks upset.]

How hard did you punch him?

[thekidsare0kay]

... [He didn't mean to upset her, and he hopes she's not mad at him, but pretty sure she's not] Well, I held him with my powerth and then socked him in the nothe ath hard ath I could.

[scalemate]

[She lets out a huff.]

Good.

[thekidsare0kay]

[He lets out a breath, too, and offers her an awkward smile] That'th okay?

[scalemate]

[She nods, then scoots over to hug him.]

Thanks, Sollux.

[thekidsare0kay]

[He returns her hug sincerely, then sighs and gives her a shy look] That being thaid, I hope you don't mind me acting all pale when we're not even moirailth. He kept thaying it wathn't any of my buthinethh.

[scalemate]

[Oh that actually... Manages to fluster her!]

I don't mind.

[She grins.]

It's kind of nice!

[thekidsare0kay]

[He's a bit flustered, too, but he nods, relieved] Okay, that'th good...

[scalemate]

[And now, to cover her nerves, she's going to make his worse!]

Soooo, why are you acting all pale for me, huh?

[thekidsare0kay]

Huh! I'm not acting pale! [Get a load of that mustard blush, Terezi!]

[scalemate]

[She giggles, poking at his face.]

You just admitted it!

[thekidsare0kay]

No, I didn't! [Blushing] Thtop it...

[scalemate]

[Oh goodness, now she actually feels sort of bad.]

...It's okay if you are, you know.

[thekidsare0kay]

[Now he feels bad, as well as embarrassed, and he can't quite look her in the eye. Not that it matters.

And he also doesn't know how to interpet what she just said.]

Thankth, I guethh.
