That's—

[Brutally honest, but that's about what she expects from Rion, and she smiles a little in reply.]

It sounds like that was probably for the best. But, for those ten seconds... were you really sure of how you felt, or was it ever, you know... confusing?

[flyingsolos]

... I mean, yeah. There's kind of a fine line between a strong friendship and romantic feelings when you're not sure which one's actually winning.

[ thank god it was only ten seconds long. ]

[cakebuffet]

I think... that might be where I'm kind of stuck.

[Because that, indeed, sounds familiar— and it's been a lot longer than ten seconds.]

How do you tell which one's real?

[flyingsolos]

Well... have you ever thought about wanting to kiss your friend, for starters?

[cakebuffet]

[Why do you have to be so blunt about it?!]

I mean...

[Well, it's complicated, but...]

Sometimes? And then other times I'm so angry that I can't believe I thought about that in the first place.

[flyingsolos]

...

Ah. That's the good kind of friendship, actually. Like you care so much that when they make you mad, they really piss you off.

[cakebuffet]

Makes sense. You get mad because you care so much, right?

[If you didn't care, then what would it matter?]
