And underestimating me like most people. What if he did attack me? Then you’d hate me if I had to defend myself.

[dead_tongue]

you're mad about being underestimated. I understand that.

if he did, no, I wouldn't be mad at you.

[moondregs]

[ All right. He’s taking a few deep breaths. Bringing himself back down. ]

It just came out of nowhere.

[dead_tongue]

it did. and I'm sorry. I wasn't expecting it, either.

I think it's just because I was upset the last time he saw me.

I'll explain how we are to him. that you're not actually picking on me, it's just how we are sometimes.

[moondregs]

I just don’t want you to get hurt. That’s all. You’re too nice. Someone is going to take advantage of it.

[dead_tongue]

oh, Junpei. you're so sweet to me.

I appreciate that you try to protect me. I do. you realise you're both doing the same thing there, yeah?

[moondregs]

But I knew you first.

[ If he weren’t a very mature and serious adult you might think this was a pout but he is and so it’s not! ]

[dead_tongue]

you did. and I love and adore you, even when I'm upset. I'll never forget that you saved me, Junpei. not ever.

he's just
you know
my sweet little murderbear. I think threats are his love language.

[moondregs]

Murderbear?

[dead_tongue]

oh, yeah. that's his monster. biggest fucking bear you've ever seen in your life. makes polar bears look tiny.

but he's also hairy. so it's like, funny, right?

[moondregs]

Hilarious.

Just … promise me you’ll be careful.

[dead_tongue]

with him?

[moondregs]

With everybody.

Even me.

[dead_tongue]

what?

I don't understand.

[moondregs]

Something like the proxies could happen again. People might not be themselves.

I don’t want you to have to go through resurrection. I have. It’s hell.

[dead_tongue]

yes. it could.

if that's even an option anymore. if the Duchess dies, we're all playing for keeps.

but Junpei... I can't just not trust you.

[moondregs]

I know.

But I had to say it.

[dead_tongue]

I will be as careful as I know how to be.

you worry too much. I can take a lot more than you think I can.

...they lasted what, fifteen minutes?

[dead_tongue]

What?! He's your boyfriend!

[moondregs]

No! We haven’t talked about that yet!

[dead_tongue]

oh.

wait, is that a thing people discuss?

[moondregs]

Yes? You can’t just make a big decision like that without being on the same page. Maybe he doesn’t want to be referred to that way!

[dead_tongue]

Oh.

Oh, shit.

[moondregs]

It’s fine. It’s … fine. In the chaos of everything else maybe he didn’t notice. He’s … having a stand off with one of the people John and sensei are involved with.

[dead_tongue]

What? Wh--oh NO, that's my sisterwife!
