"She found me at school. That and Zane told me." He had to catch himself saying 'the blonde guy', as Zane had become in his head. Not that it wasn't accurate. He went and leaned against the couch.

"Oh. Well what a surprise, Cale came by earlier and told me." She closed the door behind him. "He doesn't seem too fond of you, for some reason. Did you do anything to piss him off?"

2015-04-20 01:44:57

🌀

He shrugged. "What doesn't piss him off, though? Maybe he just resents my general existence." I wouldn't be surprised. "Unless he really hates the grocery store I've been visiting."

2015-04-20 01:47:58

●

"Well, he needs to get over himself then." She walked over and sat back down on the couch. "You're probably the nicest human I've ever met."

2015-04-20 01:50:45

🌀

He flushed just a little. "Th-that's not true, Zane's much nicer." Hm. Well, I guess I can't really disagree with that.

2015-04-20 01:53:31

●

"Hmmm. Well I don't know Zane that well, so I'm still going with you." Terezi is as stubborn as anyone could ever be.

2015-04-20 01:54:59

🌀

That's some interesting reasoning. "...I don't deserve it, but thanks." And he's just about as lacking in self-confidence as anyone could ever be.

"This again, Tassek?" Terezi looked him in the eye. "You do deserve it, trust me. I mean, let's take our past for an example. We've been through all this shit, and here you are still standing in my house once more. Anyone would be lucky to have you." Yeah, i went mushy. Deal with it.

2015-04-20 02:01:31

I'm dealing. I'm dealing with a contented sigh and butterflies in my stomach. Though neither of us are honestly sure what survival has to do with the niceness level of a person. Maybe she was talking about loyalty? I'm sorry, I ruined your mush. Moving on. His face darkened a shade. 'Have you'? Odd choice of words. "But, that's just because you kept pulling me out of messes I got myself into." Okay, I'm with Terezi on this one. /Cut it out./

Good, because I'm hugging a pillow because the hopeless romantic is extremely giddy. "Yes, and I'd do it again, just to repay that kindness." She admitted. "Saving you. Doesn't bother me. Someone hurting you? That's what does."

2015-04-20 02:13:30

🌀

Just don't hyperventilate. Um. How should he respond to that? His face was like a slow-boiling tea kettle. It was touching, but embarrassing, and anything he tried to say would just come out as a meaningless stutter. He wasn't used to this sort of thing, what should he do?!

2015-04-20 02:18:28

●

Terezi couldn't help but chuckle. "Calm down, you're face is red as my hoodie." She pointed out. "There's no secret meaning behind it, just saying it like it is." Or did she? Nah. That couldn't be a thing.

2015-04-20 02:21:08

🌀

Right. Breathe. "Th-th-thanks." ...good enough, darling. There's too much denial. At this rate, I'm going to have to get involved myself. Don't make me, girl.

2015-04-20 02:41:04

●

Are you going to say it in a gay voice too? "Though in all serious, it's nothing to be embarrassed about." Terezi rested her head against the couch. "I'm sure you get complimented all the time."

2015-04-20 02:43:13

🌀

Let's go with no. On several accounts. "Haha, um, no...." Well, aside from his teachers, but commenting on his grades didn't really count, especially since they were stating written facts. Even that bloody love letter mostly consisted of thinly veiled insults.

2015-04-20 02:46:26

●

Cause he;s a NERD! Terezi had a surprised look on her face. "You're joking, right?" Clearly he had to be joking. He was clearly attractive and tons of girls had to be falling...wait, what. Shut up. Just stop right there.

2015-04-20 02:49:42

🌀

I THROW A BLOODY MEAN RIGHT HOOK, DO YOU WANT TO JOIN THE LIST OF INSULTING IMBECILES WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED IT?

Ehem.

Well then, Terezi. The surprise confused him. Why would he regularly receive compliments? "....no. Why would I? I'm not exactly popular." The only thing he was good at caused the recipients extreme boredom. No one /likes/ being retaught basic algebra, even if the teacher's a decent one.

U WANNA FUCKIN GO M8 ILL BASH YA SILLY I SWEAR ON ME MOM.

Not really because prison isn't fun.

"You don't have to be popular to be admired, Tassek." Terezi pointed out. "They just have to find you interesting." If someone found the teacher attractive, you're damn sure they're going to be pulling up a front row seat to every lesson and wanting everything reexplained. As given example by creepy new vampire.

Are you mocking me? /Are you mocking me?/

I can't believe this is my only source of conversation.

No kidding. Did she count, though? "That doesn't really apply to me either." He pushed himself up onto the back of the couch and swung his legs staring at his feet. This whole topic was uncomfortable. He was very aware of the campus's lack of admiration for an antisocial, narcoleptic freshman, and was it really such a surprise? There were plenty of older students who threw parties, were aspiring DJs, or whatever. Much more interesting than the nerd.

2015-04-20 03:07:54

●

You bet your ass I am.

I'll see you in hell, buddy.

"Now I know you're joking." Terezi couldn't believe it. At all. He was completely and utterly interested in him. Wait. NOT IN THAT WAY THAT'S WASNT WHAT- "You are without a doubt, interesting." fuck. Just stop talking Terezi. JUST STOP TALKING.

You'll find yourself pathetically and immorally alone, as by default I will end up in heaven. As a general rule, that's how angels work, with the obvious exception of Lucifer and Co.

This is just too funny. "Um, thanks? I'm really not, though." Well, maybe to someone who spent her days sewing and killing people. Wait.

I have an OC named Luicfer that Ivory has to obey because he is the devil. Irony.

Though I am no angel.

"Okay, then give me one reason why I shouldn't find you interesting." Terezi raised an eyebrow for a challenge. "One thing I can't counter." Oh this is going be good.

2015-04-20 03:20:27

🌀

I figured. Not the former, though.

What? Uh. Shouldn'ts are always harder than shoulds. He thought about it. "I....wait, what specific things count as 'not interesting'?" Oops. I may have contributed my own confusion a bit there. Did it sound like something he'd normally say? No matter. "....I spend virtually every spare second either doing homework, playing video games, or talking to you?"

2015-04-20 03:27:30

●

THAT WAS THE MOST OBVIOUS THO.

Which is exactly why Terezi was doing this. She was ready to play this game. "And instead of wasting your life away on things that won't matter 6 months from now, you are spending some time with someone who will actually remember you name." She smirked, this was going to be easy.

2015-04-20 03:30:44

🌀

How is your OC, who has remained completely unmentioned up to this point, obvious?

Dammit. I don't like this game. "Then...I still have no idea what I'm going to major in." Truth. Though he was putting psychology to some consideration.
