You'd be safe with me.

[ She's not lying on a technicality. ]

[soba]

[ i hate this ]

Well, if it's with you.

1/2

[sadiskick]

[ There's a moment when surprise takes hold of her before happiness blooms over her face, and she almost sparkles in delight, looking much like the teenage girl she could've been if she weren't everything that she actually is. ]

[sadiskick]

[ ... ]

You're not joking, right?

[soba]

[ joking about that seems like a good way to get stabbed ]

You looked happy.

[ so no. ]

[sadiskick]

[ She laughs. ]

You shouldn't have said yes, but you can't take it back anymore.

[soba]

You really are an S...

[ this is who he chose to give affection to ]

[sadiskick]

[ haha yeah an S sure is who is important to him.

She smiles. ]

It's delightful to see others in pain.

[soba]

Is that why...

[ he points at the doll

that's still on her knee ]

[sadiskick]

I'm keeping the doll because I love her. Even if she weren't adorably murderous, I'd still love her.

[ Is that the question he wanted to ask? ]

[soba]

But are you going to take her off?

[ a pause ]

Or is she still going to attack...

[sadiskick]

I'll remove her eventually, but you haven't done anything stupid enough for me to let her loose on you.

[ Yet.

So yeah, Meltryllis does think Annabeth will still attack, and the doll looks at Toi like she's still happy to attack with a wide smile. ]

[soba]

[ he looks at annabeth, then at melt. ]

Are you going to keep her after this?

[sadiskick]

Of course I am.

[ She sounds almost as fond and as affectionate as when she told Toi she loves him. ]

Why wouldn't I?

[soba]

[ i hate that ]

I dunno. I'm not sure if I'd bring anything back with me.

[sadiskick]

[ She reaches up and unties her hair ribbon before offering it to him. ]

[soba]

[ ...

he quietly reaches out to take it ]

[sadiskick]

[ She wasn't completely sure he'd take it, so she's as pleased and touched as she is surprised. ]

It's another way to connect to me.

[soba]

[ ARA WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ASW WHEN DID THIS GET PUT UP HERE I'LL KILL YOU ]

... I won't lose it.

[sadiskick]

[ PLEASE LOVE ME INSTEAD. I MADE IT LAST NIGHT, SO YOU DIDN'T MISS IT FOR 324923 DAYS. ]

Think of it as a catalyst.

[soba]

A catalyst...

[ he ties it around his hand. ]

Thanks.

[ it's am embarrassed mumble ]

[sadiskick]

Don't thank me for anything yet.

[ But she's pleased enough that he seems to be intent on keeping it. At least for now. ]

[soba]

Well... people usually thank others for gifts, at least.

[ he assumes?? well, more like he knows, but he does not do it often. ]

[sadiskick]

[ She laughs. It's not a wholly kind amusement, but the look she gives him is affectionate. ]

It's a shame I can't touch you.

[soba]

[ it's funny because he can't tell if she'd give him a cute touch or if she'd hit him again because both are equally as likely from her because this is just their life ]

... when we fix everything this weekend.
