That's fine. I'd rather we not risk another incident like the other day.

[uncurtained]

[She tilts her head.]

The other day?

[unpredicktable]

[ dick. gestures vaguely ]

A few weeks back? With you, Kagachi and... Escha?

[ the Original incident ]

[uncurtained]

Oh, that other day. Honestly, it’s weird, that feels like it was so long ago...

[unpredicktable]

Well... it kinda was. We've been here-- what, six weeks now?

[uncurtained]

It feels longer.

[...]

What do you think you’ll do after this?

[unpredicktable]

[ dick... blinks a little, rubbing the back of his neck with a shrug ]

Not sure. I... don't know that I can keep the hero thing, after.

[uncurtained]

I know you mentioned a while ago you were thinking of taking a break, but... Did something else happen?

[unpredicktable]

I killed someone, Beck.

[ if you ever think he's over that, spoilers, he's not, ]

[uncurtained]

[She doesn't want to get into the same discussion about whether or not it was wrong given how the last one went, but—]

That doesn't mean you can't do good things for other people.

[unpredicktable]

[ he shrugs, looking away ]

Yeah, maybe. [ he obviously doesn't want to linger on that discussion, so: ] What are you gonna do?

[uncurtained]

[She hesitates for a moment, but:]

Break up with my boyfriend and go back to school, I guess.

[unpredicktable]

[ huh ]

I didn't know you had a boyfriend.

[uncurtained]

Yeah, there's a reason for that. He's an asshole.

[hm]

[unpredicktable]

What did he do?

[ why does he immediately go #concerned ]

cw for drug use

[uncurtained]

[With a sigh:]

Well, there was the time one of my friends walked in on him getting a blowjob from another girl at a party, and his excuse was that she said she had good coke and he was stressed. That's probably a good place to start.

[unpredicktable]

And you... kept dating him after that?

[uncurtained]

...I know that doesn't sound great. It's just - complicated, I guess.

[unpredicktable]

Sorry, I don't mean to sound judgmental. [ though he was a Little, the bitch ] Just. Trying to understand.

[uncurtained]

[She hesitates for another moment, knowing how this is going to sound, too, but:]

It can be hard to think that anybody better will come along, I guess. I haven’t... had the best track record at keeping anything that really made me happy in my life. And he kept promising that he was going to change.

[unpredicktable]

[ well NOW he feels like an ass. the look on his face really can't be described as anything but concerned, though he doesn't say anything about how that sounds. just. raises a hand up to Beck's shoulder ]

Hey. Look, obviously that's changed enough that you'd consider breaking up with him now, but... you know you deserve better than someone like that, right?

[uncurtained]

Yeah, I know.

[She sounds less sure than the words might imply, but.]

Sorry, I’m not trying to throw my own pity party or anything. I’m figuring it out.

[unpredicktable]

I didn't think you were. [ it's earnest ] But I'm serious. You're great, Beck.

[uncurtained]

[There's a soft, amused noise.]

I should be the one saying that to you. You're the one who's always there for me.

[unpredicktable]

[ dick doesn't bother holding back a smile ]

Too bad, I said it first.
