[ gets so caught off guard they skate into the wall ]

[midway]

Saber...?!

[ HELLO ]

[rippled]

That was on purpose.

[ it clearly was not. they just cannot admit they got flustered.

they will wipe off their clothes from the non-existent dirt on it and try to go back to skating. ]

[midway]

.... Sure.

[ Normally, I would make Claude a joke, but I think he actually has good balance as a wyvern rider so he can be decent at skating.

This isn't so bad. ]

[rippled]

[ LET CLAUDE BE COOL!!!!

saber will occasionally glance over at him, but it is fine... amazing how actually doing something instead of just standing around awkwardly does make it somewhat less awkward. even if this task does not end up getting them out of here. thinks about how stupid this place is going to get once everyone else just walks in.



they are getting increasingly pleased. they are so easy to distract with a good time. ]

[midway]

[ SO NOW... THEY ARE JUST SKATING IN SILENCE

Should we check if we can leave now? ]

[rippled]

Oh! Yes, we should.

[ just acknowledges the thought again... sowwy

but they will go to skate off the rink. they do not take the skates off, but will just go to skate towards the door. icly this would be a funny moment to be when everyone else just starts walking in. ]

[ YOU'RE JUST ENDING THE THREAD? THEY DIDN'T EGG TALK ]

[rippled]

[ EGG TALK



they can regroup after they are free so now they are full of the knowledge of gossip that they did not have previously. the regrouping is not on purpose it is just outside after yves makes out with claude i guess (delusional)

that just made me even more confused... ]

[midway]

[ Just lingers in the vicinity for some reason.

Me too. ]

[rippled]

[ ...

they are going through some mental gymnastics here. trying to decide something very quick now that there is no crowd. ]

Claude...

[midway]

...

What is it?

[ awkward ]

[rippled]

[ they didn't think this far ahead.

i didn't think this far ahead. ]

May I speak with you for a moment?

[midway]

[ HELP

Wha is this going to be about then? ]

Sure.

[rippled]

We keep ending up in the same place a lot for some reason. I know that must be uncomfortable, after I said I'd stay out of your way...

[midway]

... It's alright.

I don't want to keep you from your friends.

1/2

[rippled]

[ hnnnnn

this is so hard when they're trying to be thoughtful. should they just stop being thoughtful? maybe they should have no thoughts. ]

I...

[rippled]

I have decided you are still my friend.

[ OKAY. ]

[midway]

[






HELP ]

Is that something you can decide on your own?

[rippled]

I do not know.

[ they are making this up as they go. ]

But I need to be upfront about my intentions.

[midway]

Your... intentions? What does that mean?

[ What is going on. ]

[rippled]

[ don't ask questions back!!!!!! just nod your head!!!! ]

My intentions.

[midway]

. . .

Saber.

Are you saying... you won't let me go?

[rippled]

[ don't word it like that. i hate it here. ]

Again, I will not bother you if you really do not want me to. I do not lack common sense and can accept when I am not welcomed.

[ but claude's thoughts at least gives the impression that even if he's holding a grudge he does not hate them as much as saber thought he did. so. ]

But I wanted to at least... try...

[ mumbles ]

[midway]

[ is that not the sentiment ]

I really don't have a forgiving personality, you know. [ He's so petty. ] But... I'm also not used to having friends like this.

I can't help that I find you enjoyable to be around.

[ But I can't help but remember what happened, either. ]
