week 2, saturday

[preowned]

[ a little after trial, tsuru will wander over to rupeert. ]

I apologize for not checking in with you yesterday.

[agleam]

[he shakes his head.]

No... It sounds like you had a bunch to deal with, too. Are you okay?

[preowned]

Hm? I'm completely fine.

[agleam]

But the coffin, though...?

[preowned]

That was long ago...

[agleam]

It was two days ago...?

[preowned]

Which feels like a century.

[agleam]

...I guess so.

[he still sounds concerned though!!]

[preowned]

I am more concerned about why it's happening in the first place.

[agleam]

You know you can be concerned about yourself, too, right?

[preowned]

I am always concerned for myself.

... but it doesn't really do any good to dwell too much here.

[agleam]

I think there's a difference between dwelling and admitting you weren't fine, though...

[preowned]

[ ... hm. he considers for a moment, and then, ]

It was not a pleasant experience and I don't want to go through it again.

[agleam]

[he nods, apparently satisfied with this.]

What'd you say you dreamt about...?

[preowned]

Friends at a party. They ignored me, and it was very mean of them.

[agleam]

...You're sure that's all it was?

[preowned]

My feelings were hurt, yeah.

[agleam]

...Somehow I feel like it was worse than what you're saying.

[preowned]

It is an accurate summary.

[agleam]

You're absolutely sure it wasn't more intense or worse in a way that you aren't saying?

[preowned]

Being ignored is something very bad for me.

[agleam]

—Oh. Oh, my gosh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be insensitive.

[preowned]

Don't worry about it! Emotions are weird, so...

[agleam]

I will worry about it exactly as much as I want to.

[stubborn...]

[preowned]

I'm okay.
