Yeah. So like I said, it was my fault.

[TOO BAD. Elliot is the worst person among us, deal with it!!]

We're okay, don't worry! This wasn't even one of our bigger fights. And you were just doing what you thought was right. There's nothing wrong with that.

You can say that all you want, but I think we're going to have to agree to disagree there.

[NO.]

I'm glad for that much. Way to put it in kind of worrying perspective, though... but then again, I suppose that's a part of any relationship. Can't agree all the time

Really? Man, you're one stubborn guy, Rean.

[LET ME TAKE THE BLAME]

Oh...sorry, I guess that did sound really bad. It's not like we have screaming matches or get violent! It's just...you're right, it's part of a relationship. We're very different people, as I'm sure you've noticed, so sometimes we don't see eye-to-eye right away.

If anything, it's nice. I'm a pretty timid person, but Eren likes it when I speak my mind...even if we don't agree.

I just don't like seeing the people I care about beat themselves up, that's all.

[NO]

Ha, you can say that again. But... yes, that sounds a lot better than you initially put it. And it's good that he appreciates your opinions, even if he doesn't agree! At least... I've always been told relationships should be about compromise.

Haha, sorry, I'm starting to lecture...

...Yeah, that is a habit of mine. Still, I don't like the idea of you feeling guilty over something that's not your fault.

[YES]

Haha, no its okay! And that is true about compromises. But it's hard to reach a compromise unless both people voice their feelings, right? If it's just one person getting their way, it's not really compromise anymore.

[in other words maybe don't be a doormat]

Well, mine, too. Hate to bring up that thing in the castle, but it was supposed to be a challenge for both of us, no matter how embarrassing it was and is. So I do understand...

Which is why I have to insist on a 50/50 split.

[Rean, that's not how that works, but okay???]

True enough. Still, like I said, I'm basically the least qualified person to comment on what makes a relationship work. So if you say things are working out, my best bet is honestly just to believe you and keep my mouth shut before I wind up shoving my foot in it.

Gah, bringing up the castle is low Rean...

Fine, we can split it. THIS time.

[What even is this argument.]

Haha, okay. But...really, if you do have an opinion about something, it's okay to say it. Not just about relationship stuff either. In case you haven't noticed, most of us are misfits of some kind.

[SO YOU'RE AMONG YOUR OWN LOT REAN]

Hey, it's not like it was any better for me...

[Yes it was, you didn't get zapped for cheating]

I'll keep it in mind... but in this specific case, I think the guy whose closest thing to a "relationship" was that really awkward prom where he took a girl as a friend doesn't really get the room to speak, among his own kind or not. Especially to someone who's engaged.

I dunno, I don't remember you getting zapped...

[even though he got zapped because he cheated]

Awww, but at least you went to prom! I skipped mine.

Really, I get it. I'm not asking you to commentate on my relationship. Just meant in general.

...Okay, you got me there. Weird that it didn't count us just writing down what one another said as cheating, but it counted that, though. Ah, whatever.

Ahaha... trust me, you didn't miss much. Stuffy, awkward, way too much posing for pictures and not even decent food or music to make up for it. It was an experience, all right, but I don't know if it was a GOOD one.

Yeah, it's a little weird but maybe it was some loophole...I don't know. I try not to think about that place.

Aha, yeah. That sounds like what I expected it to be. I don't regret not going.

[A pause before he adds]

Oh hey, you never answered the Pokemon question.

Fair enough.

Yeah, you're making the right call there.

[Another pause, then a response.]

Pokemon question?

Yeah. What pokemon you'd choose for your line-up.

I know we were distracted with Crow not knowing, but I don't think you gave an answer either.

Oh, right! Sorry, we got so off-track I totally forgot...

Give me a minute, I need to think about this

[A minute or two passes.]

Since this is just hypothetical, is it okay if I pick a legendary, or is that cheating?

Aha, go ahead! It's supposed to be fun anyway.

[Another couple of minutes, and then...]

rean's a weeb and has weeb pokemon

Maybe not perfect but I think this

Oh wow! You picked a lot of cool ones! Strong too. I think they suit you well.

Here's mine!

Oh, that's a good set for you, too! Got all the musical ones you'd hope for.

Guess you like water, though? ...And sheep?

Hehe, yep! Course I'd go for the musical ones.

Yeah, water's my strongest element with spellcasting. The sheep just looked fluffy and nice to pet.

I'd expect nothing less.

Ah, that makes sense. And that may well be the cutest reasoning I've ever heard... you're not wrong, though.

Aha, yeah well, if pokemon were real, I doubt I'd be very good at earning badge and battling pokemon. Just making friends with pokemon sounds more up my alley.

And lemme guess, you picked your pokemon because they'd give you a "cutting edge" right?

[LOTS OF BLADES THERE REAN]

Fair enough! And honestly, that doesn't sound like a bad time. There ARE a lot of cute ones.

Haha... got me pegged already, don't you? Yeah. That, or I just think they're cool, but...

Yeah, there sure are! It was hard narrowing them down, honestly...

Hehe, well I know you like swords, so it was a pretty easy guess. Both you and Eren picked Typhlosion, actually.

Yeah, that's understandable. If I had to pick a favorite out of the cute ones, though...

So cute and fluffy. And icy, just like where I grew up, haha

Really? That's not too surprising, fire totally does seem like his type. As for me, I just like the fire-fuzzy-collar thing.

!!! She's beautiful! Awww...just look at this puffy little hair on her head! What a good choice

Where'd you grow up?

Yep. I think he just liked the big godzilla-y looking ones. That's fair though, the fire collar is pretty snazzy!
