[flyingsolos]

... At first I thought it was just messy because you fell out of a tree, but either you really liked that style or it hasn't seen a comb and thirty minutes of brushing in months.

[purrtagonist]

[h-hey]

I brush it every single morning. It isn't that messy. . .

[flyingsolos]

[ This? This is the world's most dubious stare. ]

[purrtagonist]

[and he gives her this dubious look in return, before he stuffs an orange slice into his mouth and chews on it slowly. all while not breaking eye contact]

[flyingsolos]

It's pretty messy.

[ Also not breaking eye contact. ]

[purrtagonist]

I like it the way that it is.

[he won't change it!!]

[flyingsolos]

Yeah, I can tell. As long as it isn't actually getting tangled, I guess...

[ but it's so messy-looking!! ]

[purrtagonist]

Are you really that concerned about the well being of my hair?

[Rion plz]

[flyingsolos]

I-I'm not concerned!! I just feel like it'd be a waste!

[purrtagonist]

A waste of what?

[she has lost him]

[flyingsolos]

... I can't help you, you're already hopeless. I'm sure your hair will make a bird very happy one day.

[ Akira sure has been a great distraction tonight! ]

[purrtagonist]

[RION WHY]

I hope it's a pigeon. I wouldn't mind being a home for a pigeon.

[flyingsolos]

Why a pigeon?

[purrtagonist]

It was the smallest, most common bird I thought of?

[he's not an expert in bird species]

[flyingsolos]

... I mean, you could've gone with a sparrow or a hummingbird... they're probably a little clea--

[ ... ]

We're getting off-track, huh.

[purrtagonist]

You're the one who started this digression.

[pops another orange slice into his mouth]

[and then offers her another piece]

[flyingsolos]

What can I say, your hair's distracting.

[ but she'll also take another orange slice. ]

[purrtagonist]

You're the first person to ever tell me that.

[flyingsolos]

That just makes me a unique presence in your life, doesn't it?

[purrtagonist]

You were already a unique presence in my life.

[everyone he knows is, duh!1]

But there's nothing wrong with going all out.

[flyingsolos]

... Usually when people say that, they're not talking about their hair.

[ gosh. ]

[purrtagonist]

I meant, in relation to your whole. . . [gestures at her??] "Unique presence" thing.

[flyingsolos]

Mm... "going all out", huh...

I don't think I'm quite at that point yet.

[purrtagonist]

Well, you have only known me for a few days.

[ha ha]

Don't underestimate level one friendship, but "going all out" seems more like a level eight thing.

[flyingsolos]

There are levels now...? And what's at level ten, friendship bracelets and unbreakable bonds? A power-up?

[ Rion, you don't even know. ]
