Hey, this is Vriska! I'm ignoring my PCD right now. Leave me a message and if I like you enough, I'll get back to you!

I didn't say they were, silly. [He'll just be reaching across the table to fluff her hair.]

And we're not just friends anyways. We're love hipsters. But regardless, I'm just saying, I'm trying to find a good balance between you, and Axel, so I can keep you both happy.

And being with you, and being with Axel makes me feel different kinds of happiness, so you shouldn't think I want to do one over the other. That's like, comparing apples and oranges. Is it a little more clear now, though? Did I do a good job?

I think so.

[she's still examining this diagram]

Cultural differences are just annoying as hell.

... That was nice, though, what you said about us being the ones that your heart feels the most for.

And then, you know I have other friends too. I'm just learning how to deal with that. I didn't have friends before, and now suddenly I have a bunch of them. So, its as new to me as it is to you. [He gives her a big smile.] But I'm glad it helped even a little.

And...I couldn't think of how to explain closeness any other way, so...I dunno. It just felt like the best way to put it.

Do you think it'll stay the way it is now?

I think maybe, one day, I'll be better at stuff like this. Explaining myself, and how I felt, but I don't think I'll ever change my mind about you, Vriska.

What about him? When you figure all that stuff out together and get past your shields, will you love him more than me?

Vriska, I told you, that's like comparing apples and oranges. Its a different kind of love. And maybe sometimes I will ask him to help me with something instead of asking you, but that just depends on the situation.

I mean, if I was having nightmares, I'd want you to be there. But if I couldn't sleep, I'd want him there.

Why? I bet he could help with nightmares and I bet I could help you go to sleep. How do you decide when you want who?

-- And even with different kinds, some can be more important than others, sometimes. That's what I was asking about.

Naw, I like you for nightmares better. [He gives her a smile.] You always know the right thing to say. But, I guess...I don't know. It all depends, and I can't really give you a straight answer.

[But he'll just be shrugging.] All I really care about is that the both of you kind of fill holes where empty spaces used to be, that I thought never really would get filled. So...I don't really think its fair to say which one is more important, because I really don't know.

... This stuff is hard to get used to.

Tell me about it.

Just... don't get upset if I have trouble sometimes, okay? Let's face it, I'm probably going to keep getting jealous every once in a while, like I am now-- especially if you do end up loving him the best. And you're not always going to be able to fix it.

Okay, just...don't get mad when I try.

I have this thing where I really don't like it when people are mad or upset with me.

I'm not mad or upset with you. I'm just... I don't know. Wishing things were different and knowing that they can't be, so I'm trying to get over it. That's all!

Well, I can't be one hundred percent yours all the time, Vriska. You have to share. [He'll just get up from his hair and circle around the table to wrap his arms around her shoulders and hug her tightly.]

But I get it.

Hey, I know that! That is one hundred percent not even the issue, okay.

[she rests her cheek on his arm]
