More than I'd like to be...

I was kinda horrible to everyone.

[psycholawgy]

It happens to everyone when they're drunk.

I really should have made sure you didn't get too intoxicated, but I was trying to make sure everyone was comfortable, too. Sorry about that.

[dishonorstudent]

No, it's... I don't really blame anyone at all, least of all you.

[ Well... there's the Miyamura part, but she'll get to that!! ]

Do ya know what kinda coffee Simon drinks?

[psycholawgy]

You should give him some tea instead. Are you planning on making him some coffee now?

[dishonorstudent]

Yeah, I mean... I should pay him a visit with something to offer, right? I get the feeling I didn't make the best impression last night.

[psycholawgy]

Should I come along?

[dishonorstudent]

What, don't trust me alone with him?

[psycholawgy]

He likes to threaten people! I mean, he doesn't mean it sometimes, but I don't want you to get all angry because of it.

[dishonorstudent]

What the hell is wrong with him?

[ But she threatens people, too... ]

[psycholawgy]

Don't worry! He's a nice person.

[dishonorstudent]

[ Don't worry, Ryuko doesn't doubt that. ] Perfect, I'm nice, too. [ ... ]

He was pretty cool about everything last night. What kinda tea should I bring?

[psycholawgy]

It's breakfast time, so I'd say English Breakfast would be a safe bet.

[dishonorstudent]

What the hell's that? On second thought, I'm just gonna bring green tea.

[psycholawgy]

Looks like you need to learn more. Starting tomorrow, no coffee in this house, just tea!

[dishonorstudent]

Don't just make up rules like that!

... [ There's a moment of silence as Ryuko seems hesitant to bring up the next topic of discussion. Instead, she reaches for her pocket and places a neatly folded pink paper wrapping on the table. Athena may or may not recognize it as the item that Miyamura's cookie was wrapped in, which was already consumed this morning.


It was delicious, if anyone is wondering. ]

[psycholawgy]

[ She notices that wrapper, and just looks away. ]

Do you want to talk about him?

[dishonorstudent]

Do you?

[ Her gaze is also scattered elsewhere rather than being focused on Athena. She's not here to grill her about what went down... not too much, anyway! ]

[psycholawgy]

You're the one who likes him, not me!

[dishonorstudent]

[ aofnsav ]

It didn't stop you from reachin' out to him before! "Ryuko needs comfort", huh?

[psycholawgy]

I wanted to see what he was like!

[ And set you guys up ok ok ]

[dishonorstudent]

I was drunk and hardly dressed to meet anyone I "like".

But I'm glad you got a good look at least, 'cause I doubt he's gonna be comin' over ever again.

[psycholawgy]

What're you talking about?

[ Wait. ]

You don't even like him, do you?

[dishonorstudent]

Of course not! When have I ever "liked" anyone?

I mean, I appreciate what you were tryin' to do, but... he didn't deserve this. Hell, he wouldn't even deserve me.

[psycholawgy]

Then why did you say that you did?! [ oh god ] I wouldn't have called him up if I knew! e

[dishonorstudent]

I wouldn't have said it if I knew you were gonna call him!!
