Someone with another set of rules then, like you. I'm not asking, I'm saying it. [Is he right? That's the only thing that adds up, but what the fuck? Or...] Or it's something else you can do. If it wasn't your choice this last week.
Sounds like a tricky game to be playing. [...] Was it Kagachi, by chance? [And before she asks:] He told me you two talked. It'd also explain why he was marked, too.
...I'm afraid not. [How to explain...] Beck, there are things I've heard from other people that I've been looking into. I'm trying to track down the source to every thing this ship may be hiding from us, and even if it doesn't seem important I need to make sure this doesn't cause something like this to happen again. It makes sense, doesn't it?
[...normally he'd argue but he can't quite form the words, so he turns his back on her. He'll do it himself then.
As he's looking at the books though, he changes the subject.]
...you deserved a lot better than someone who made excuses to cheat. [He says, knowingly cheating on his fiancée but it's justified for survival. That guy from Beck's memory didn't seem to have a good excuse at all.]
[She looks at him for a long moment, trying to decide what to say - but he speaks before she has a chance. She can't help but smile, even if it's a little melancholy.]
It's easy to say that just based on one moment, but... It's not like he's always like that, you know?
Does that matter? [He knows he has zero room to judge someone he's never met, especially based on just a blip from Beck's memory, but this is something he feels strongly about.] You don't get to say "I don't just want to be some guy you sleep with" when you're going around getting your dick sucked by other people.
[There's a pause then.] But he's not your boyfriend. [A statement, not really a question. He thinks maybe Beck would have said so before.]

Yeah, I know where they came from now.

Your choice for the week?

I probably can, but...

Beck. Please. It's really important. [...] I've kept my promise to you. I haven't told anyone about your part in this game.

[She pauses for a second.]
Ask again, maybe?

No, not really.
no subject
[He's weirdly invested here, but also something bit his former roommate and he needs to understand.]
no subject
Incredibly hot.
no subject
What happened. Or do I have to guess that, too?
no subject
[She sighs.]
Yes to the second question.
no subject
You flat out told somebody about what you can do? Instead of playing the question game like you're playing with me.
no subject
[Ugh.]
Not... exactly, but I guess I told them more than I should have.
no subject
no subject
No, but... Now that you know why, can we skip the who?
no subject
Why did you tell them?
no subject
Because I trust them. Do you trust me? Because I know for a fact the only reason it happened is because I wasn't careful enough.

[That she knows of, at least. Either way, she sighs.]
I don’t really know what we are. Being here hasn’t exactly helped, either.
