[ this kid really doesn't know when to take the hint and cork it. still, she feels her face heating up in a mixture of anger and embarrassment, and she can just about feel the barrel against her temple again, too, while those bright eyes stared holes through her and called her a coward. ]
That dumbass could want to pull down the goddamn moon, doesn't mean he'll get to. You're right that he's the kind of hopeful fool who'd want to try his hand at sowing some green into that barren wasteland, but the rest of it's a whole hell of a lot murkier than you think. So stop making up stories in your head.
Quit making those faces, I ain't asking you to stop growing him his damn plants if that's what makes ya both happy. But don't go assuming shit just because that's the way you like it in your head. Like I said, it ain't that simple.
[ bypassing the sugar and going straight for the sandwiches, some of the clouds clearing from her face. truly, her one true love is right here before her. ]
Live off crumbs long enough, you'd start asking, too.
[ without further ado, she begins to stuff herself. ]
Or didja forget we're singing for our suppers, now?
How else are we gonna get somethin' to eat? It's not like Nyssa provides. We got a couple Echoes that Birdie struck up a deal with to keep the pantry full, so long as we give 'em what they want.
[ LOOK, literally none of you have told her about any of this??? she would have assumed that even NYSSA wasn't so short-sighted as to starve out her own team BUT APPARENTLY NOT ]
... Then, please remind me, when this is over. Since I'm going to forget everything. I want to help you all!

[ she just wanted him to be happy :( and well you too. was that really so wrong??? this room suddenly feels much colder, even under the kotatsu ]
Re: TRUE HEART
Don't be like that.
Re: TRUE HEART

[ but she still thinks you'd be cute together, in that odd-couple kind of way ]

and she knows it. BUT LEST WE GET STUCK IN A CIRCULAR BATTLE--
in front of her appears a tray of donuts, sandwiches, and cake pops. ]
Here you go.
