[Raises an eyebrow]

Rivals?

[mind_blown]

Yeah.

[dont make him talk about his not boyfriend when he wants to talk to u silk]

He wanted one.

[searingedgelord]

[unfortunately she remembers about dumb fighty boys and how "rivals" can be and is more bothered than she likes.]

Hm.

[mind_blown]

[that is hard to ignore actually, and he pauses]

... What?

[searingedgelord]

Nothing.

[ok, that's not strictly true]

It's stupid.

[mind_blown]

What's stupid, exactly?

[searingedgelord]

...Being jealous.

[mind_blown]

-- of Griffin?

Wait. I'm confused.

[searingedgelord]

[she is also confused, tbh, and feelings are dumb, but look, she remembers how gay rivals can be for each other]

“Rivals” huh.

[mind_blown]

Why would you ever be jealous of Griffin? We've basically been rivals since I got here. Or, "rivals," in how he defines it.

[he'd just considered them friends]

[searingedgelord]

[She sighs.

Is she...gonna have to spell this out...]

How often have you had sex?

[mind_blown]

[he didn't feel any shame at the time, and theoretically, he still doesn't, but suddenly he does? which is weird because that wasn't the agreement. Or at least he thought it wasn't.]

Once.

Hold on, I thought we had an agreement or else I-- [a pause as he tries to figure out the words here.

she's jealous?? he doesn't understand.] Uh.

I wouldn't have done that, I guess.

[searingedgelord]

We...acknowledged we had feelings. And that you liked Glacies, too. I told you about my involvement with Joker and Nine, but I...actually haven't been with either of them since...

[you know since they talked about feelings, pretty much]

But that was my choice, I didn't think to ask the same of you. I just didn't want to make things too complicated for myself. We didn't...officially set boundaries or anything.

[mind_blown]

[well, he just falls back to sitting on the bed, and pulls her into his lap.]

So, what boundaries?

[searingedgelord]

[oh

for some reason she wasn't expecting that. She flushes, surprised, but settles into his lap. She's kind of relieved? That he's not mad or offended or something]

I guess...we should figure that out.

[mind_blown]

[he didn't even bring her up to griffin. and now, he's regretting that, when it hadn't seemed all that necessary, because griffin didn't even come close to the same status.

but "guess we should figure that out."]

What do you want?

[searingedgelord]

I guess...I'd like to know where I stand.

[mind_blown]

Where you stand?

[his brow furrows]

Like, have things changed...?

[searingedgelord]

I don't know. Have they? You gave Griffin a label.

1/3

[mind_blown]

-- What? Seriously?

[mind_blown]

[shit]

/5 actually

[mind_blown]

You're worried because of that?

I like Griffin plenty, but how many times has he sent me back to Bad End completely destroyed? We were basically already rivals.

It's just codifying what we alre--

[mind_blown]

[oh]

[mind_blown]

...

So you want to make us... official?

[searingedgelord]

...I don't know. Maybe. If you're comfortable with it.

[but she's not sure he is, and she'd rather keep him than push him]

At least, I want to feel...important, I guess.
