"...She ran away /again/?"

"Called it!"

"More like Anndrea kicked them out and they took her way too seriously." He glared at Ivory. "She's got to be somewhere in the city though, so we figured we'd just ask around while she can't go outside."

"That is a smart idea, but I have not seen them recently."

"And what the hell did you two do to piss them off /that/ much?"

2015-07-01 07:58:20

🌀

How should he word this... "Neither of them have been...in a very good mood lately. Even if that's an understatement. We had a big fight, I passed out, and the next thing I knew they'd skedaddled."

●

"Good job, dumbass." Ivory spoke.

"Ivory that's quiet enough." He spoke to her, then turned to face Tassek. "I'll certainly tell you if we see either of them."

2015-07-01 08:05:28

🌀

"Screw you too. Thanks, Lance. Any idea where else she might've gone?"

2015-07-01 08:07:53

●

"Did you check Terezi's old house?" He asked.

2015-07-01 08:18:13

🌀

"That'd be too obvious." That was recommendation number two.

2015-07-01 08:19:38

●

"Hmm, you do have a point. Either way, we wish you luck and hope you find them."

"I don't."

"Ivory?"

"Yes?"

"Shush."

"Thanks again, Lance. Ivory, you can join Louhkie in Hell. Talk to you later, hopefully they'll be back by then." He waved and moved back towards the door as Zane pushed it open. Tassek glanced up at him. "Oh, hey again. You two lovebirds have fun, this time when you pick her up though, throw her out the window." "Um....what....?" But Tassek was already gone.

Ivory was about to say something smart ass back to Tassek, but then the door opened and Zane entered the store. Oh God. What was that, Lance? You want her to go check something in the back room?

I didn't say anything, Ivory.

Don't care, back room she goes! She moved off the counter and past the changing room, towards the back room of the store. Yes. This is how she solves all her problems.

2015-07-01 08:34:50

🌀

Zane started towards the counter when suddenly Ivory darted away to the back room. ....oh. Um. "....wait...?" He watched her disappear and sighed, looking down at his hands. "...is she...still angry?"

2015-07-01 08:42:08

●

Lance immediately shook his head. "No. Not at all. If she was angry she probably would of tried fighting you. She's in the back room if you want to talk to her. I think that'd be the best thing to do."

2015-07-01 08:44:46

🌀

Fighting him? That would've been preferable, probably. "....okay. Thank you." He moved towards the door, stopped, and knocked lightly.

2015-07-01 08:46:52

●

Fuck. Of course Lance would tell him where she was. Okay take a deep breath. She can do this. /She can do this./

She opened the door.

2015-07-01 08:49:18

🌀

He still had his guilty gaze fixed on his hands. She might not be angry, but she was certainly upset, and it was undoubtedly his fault. "....sorry....are you, um...recovered?"

2015-07-01 08:53:37

●

She looked up at him. /Shit./ She upset him again. Okay, just...just talk. "Yes...I am fine. Are you um...are you okay?"

2015-07-01 08:55:48

🌀

He didn't answer. "...why did you hide?" Was she scared of him now? Would he make her cry again? He couldn't stand the thought of either.

2015-07-01 08:59:26

●

She gave a weak and nervous laugh. "I'm um, not...I'm not good with...feelings... at all." Okay, that was a lot harder to say than she expected.

2015-07-01 09:01:44

🌀

His brows furrowed slightly in confusion. She was good with feelings. She was great with feelings. He was the one who didn't know how they worked. "And that made you retreat to a separate room?"

2015-07-01 09:04:02

●

"Sort of, yes." Well this was getting awkward. He probably thought she was weird now.

2015-07-01 09:05:42

🌀

He didn't get it. And that came across in his silence as he attempted to puzzle out what she was trying to say.

2015-07-01 09:09:29

●

"It's ah...hard to explain, I guess? I'm just...not right in the head."

2015-07-01 09:12:11

🌀

"What? You are fine in the head from what I have seen."

2015-07-01 09:13:00

●

"Then I must be better at hiding than Lance says I am."
