[ LORD YOU TWO. YOU BETTER NOT SHOOT EACH OTHER.

Annnd he's not quite surprised to get this warning, just from Natalia's own reactions about her. ]

Um...okay. Be careful how though?

[nachetanya]

[ I MEAN... NOT SHOOTING... ]

... Just that she's fake.

[ Even as she says it, it sounds lame, because she is fake. So much of her is fake. She sighs and shakes her head ]

I just had to say that, even when I'm apologizing for hurting you.

[fiddlestick]

[OR STABBING!!]

Right...

Don't worry, I'll be careful. In-Laws are supposed to come with some walking on eggshells, right?

1/2

[nachetanya]

[ She has a look of deep, visceral disgust at the idea of Clover being an in-law for all of a few seconds... ]

[nachetanya]

[ But she perks up just as quickly! She smiles and she leans forward in towards the face of her cousin ]

Oh, did Eren finally propose?!

[fiddlestick]

[Natty that's worrying. But Elliot is going to choose to overlook that first look and laugh nervously]

G-Guess I walked into that one...

[He swallows]

No, I'd tell you if he did. We're gonna wait until we're done with school at least.

[nachetanya]

But it has changed to "when" as opposed to "if."

[ She observes, amused. ]

[fiddlestick]

[there's a slight pause, before he nods with quiet conviction]

Yeah. When. I'm not letting him go.

[nachetanya]

[ She exhales, shaking her head a little and, ]

I knew that already, but... [ But it's - you know, ]

I'm glad to hear it.

[fiddlestick]

Thanks. And when we do get engaged, I'll be sure to tell you right away.

[He'll actually offer a smile]

And...hey. We're okay. Okay?

[nachetanya]

[ She nods. ... She nods, but then she sighs, shaking her head and waving a hand, ]

One day, you'll be the one to really offend me!

[fiddlestick]

Eheh....I hope not.

[He doesn't want to upset Nat because he does love her. Also because you know. Grudges, she holds them]

[nachetanya]

I can't always be the apologizing one.

[ Nudging him a little, she laughs. She's mostly being... silly. ]

[fiddlestick]

Haha, it's not like you're in trouble all the time! Pretty sure Zack sticks his foot in his mouth way more!

[nachetanya]

Well that's the truth. [ Olivia as much or more, honestly, but she would never apologize... She giggles all the same and... ]

... I miss him around.

[fiddlestick]

[He laughs with her, but smiles a little sadly]

Yeah. Me too...he always filled up the room.

[nachetanya]

I mean, he still does, just not here right now!

[ It's uncomfortable, really, to think about it as a past tense thing... ]

[fiddlestick]

O-oh, right. Sorry! Of course.

[...]

I managed to get him on the phone the other day.

[nachetanya]

You did?

[ She hasn't even started to try? ]

[fiddlestick]

Yeah! Just for about a minute or two, then it cut out again.

But it was really him! He's doing okay!

[nachetanya]

I'm sure auntie is hassling him about now...

[ But really? She actually - no, her hands are full now or she'd get her phone ]

[fiddlestick]

Haha, if not setting up arranged dates, yeah....

[nachetanya]

Though she and uncle must be grateful to have someone to help out at the farm.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah...

I bet they missed him.

[nachetanya]

Probably... in that respect, we got to hog him.

[ She frowns and... ]

... I should call mama and dad too.
