[camena]

Yeah. So. Can't complain...!

[ her laugh comes out a little shaky. ]

... That's a joke. This place sucks.

[diluvian]

[ her voice gets a little quieter. ]

It does suck. It sucks a lot. Some people make it suck more than others, but at least you have people that do the opposite for you, too, right?

[camena]

Yeah, no. I like pretty much everyone here, really.

[diluvian]

Even me?

[camena]

Why wouldn't I?

[diluvian]

Why would you? I don't go out of my way to be friendly or kind. In fact, I'm the opposite.

[camena]

Eh. Mean girls can be cool.

[diluvian]

[ ....

she sighs. ]

I was ready to write off most of you again. You just have to be like this, don't you?

[camena]

Like... what?

[ feminist??? ]

[diluvian]

[ like she could be any other girl. like she could be a girl, period, but lambda won't say that.

what she says instead: ]

Come here.

[ come closer. ]

[camena]

[ well. she does! ]

Why? You gonna do the—the thing? The kabedon thing? [ joking. look, she learned a new word. it doesn't even apply here though. ]

[diluvian]

You were taught something. There isn't even a wall.

[ well, there is the statue? the monument. ]

Don't ask, if you don't expect.

[ have fun getting kabedoned by two big penguin parka sleeves against this monument, alex. ]

[camena]

[ SHE WAS JOKING i don't know why she walks so calmly into situations that will for sure fluster her every time, but here we are again. ]

H-haha... You got me...

[diluvian]

Hm? Did I? I could do more than this.

[ here we are again. ]

[camena]

But, like—why? Just to mess with me? I don't... get it.

[diluvian]

[ there's a beat of silence. ]

Do you think I care enough to mess with everyone, Alex?

[camena]

... I had thought so, but that question has me thinking nnnnno?

[diluvian]

[ she lowers her arms. ]

I tell people to go away. Not come closer.

[camena]

But do you want them to come closer anyway?

Everyone here is nice, you know.

[diluvian]

No and no. I don't agree.

[ she is tsun, but she's selective. people have to jump through some hoops. ]

[camena]

Who do you not get along with?

I could give them a stern talking to. [ that's a joke ]

[diluvian]

[ that gets her to smile a little. ]

Oh, you will, will you? I'd let you have the honor of being my bodyguard.

[camena]

Hey, I'm only good at scolding. I wouldn't trust me in a fight.

[diluvian]

Oh, don't worry. That's mostly what bodyguards do. Tell people to stand back and not bother their charges. You can do that much, can't you?

[camena]

I do think people would be more intimidated by you than me. But sure. I volunteered.
