... You know, I've been realizing lately how easily you get embarrassed...

[rippled]

No I don't...

[kumeyuri]

[looks at them]

[rippled]

Embarrassing things just happen here.

[kumeyuri]

... Well, that is technically true. [a beat] You and Claude...?

[rippled]

That was nothing. He just likes to be annoying.

[kumeyuri]

Well, can't argue with that...

[rippled]

That said, thank you for not saying anything.

[ even if their genius plan was RUINED ]

[kumeyuri]

Sorry that you still got called out.

[rippled]

Well, I think you might be the only person who noticed that he did, and you already knew.

[kumeyuri]

... A lot was going on by that point.

[rippled]

[ they sigh. ]

Too much. It was hard to keep up.

[kumeyuri]

It was pretty telling that after the whole... debacle on whether to eat the corndog or not, we didn't even bat an eye at Siffrin eating leftover cookie evidence.

[though now he's like

ACTUALLY GODDAMNIT SIFFRIN THIS IS WHY I TOOK THE COOKIE AWAY FROM YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE]

[rippled]

[rippled]

It must be tiring to do so much wrangling...

[kumeyuri]

I'm not even the one doing it, for the most part...

[rippled]

You are usually around people who are...

[kumeyuri]

... Am I?

[rippled]

I think so... but it may just be that they are loud...

[kumeyuri]

People who fuss usually are.

[rippled]

You don't mind though, do you?

[kumeyuri]

I think you're overestimating how much people fuss over me? It's not like I even need it.

[rippled]

You don't. But I mean it as more...

[ they trail off... ]

You are just cared for.
