You're welcome.

-- And it's not that! It's just that something good just happened and you're really happy, and I'm trying to do this thing with you where I'm not a selfish bitch all the time. So my dumb problems can wait.

Hey, you're not a bitch, and you're not dumb. So, don't even worry about it. I love you. So. You're flaws are invisible. Got it??

Still. I can talk to you about it some other time. Or, you know, never.

Or, sometime. I'm not going to forget about it.

[Because he's happy to have his friends being more open with him.]

But for now? We can just sit here and be happy, Kay?

[squeezes tighter]

I like that idea.

Alrighty.

[And resting his head on your shoulder.] How have you been lately?

[reaches up to absently play with his hair, stroking her fingers through it]

Pretty good. I'm glad I'm not stuck in my room anymore. And I'm glad Juliet was just lost in the Wastes instead of sent back home.

Wait, she was what?

How did that happen? [He hadn't caught that. He's glad she was just lost in the wastes too because he would have missed her.]

Yeah, she was gone for weeks! I was pissed about her and Morgana leaving at the same time.

Holy shit...I dunno how I even...

You've been kind of preoccupied, I guess. ... And I need to start giving you more details instead of just climbing in here with you when I'm sad!

I...Yeah, I guess. But, still. She's my friend, I should have noticed...

[Guess he needed to hang out with her more often.]

And that might be good since i'm obviously not good at keeping up with the times.

... Hey. You're happy right now, remember? And she didn't really leave, so don't worry about it.

Yeah, I know. I haven't lost it, just. I feel like a loser friend.

I'll have to say hey soon or something.

... You think you'd notice if I left?

[Oh god, Vriska. Yes. Yes he would.]

I talk to you how many times a day? I'd notice right away.

Just checking.

You don't have to worry about that.

Teeeeeeeechnically it doesn't count as a real worry, because if I left I wouldn't know whether you realized it or not. But...

[she shrugs the shoulder that he's not leaning on]

Whatever! I won't worry about it.

Okay, Okay.

Lets just be happy. [And he's quiet a moment, unable to contain another smile.] You know what this needs?

What does this need?

Hot chocolate.

[... laughs]

I think you're right!

But...

[she rests her cheek against the top of his head]

Stay here for a minute, okay? Just a minute.

Huh? Yeah, sure. [And here he will stay, like a good little Hanna.]

[closes her eyes and relaxes, forgetting any and all problems and worries for the moment; you are her favorite place to be, Hanna]

Cool. Thanks.
