[after trial, ylfa can be found wandering back to the warehouse district with some ikea meatballs. she'll stop for alex, though.]

How are you doing?

[camena]

[ alex is just very slowly pacing. "pacing where" everywhere. so she stops as well. ]

How you'd expect, I guess. [ like that could have gone worse, somehow, but barely? ] You?

[honkinbigteeth]

I'm alright. A lot of food for thought. I wish I knew why she decided to do it.

[camena]

To win, probably? I really wanted it to take longer, but...

I don't know. Ruby said it'd be hard to keep up in points without doing it. So maybe she'd been told that, too.

[honkinbigteeth]

...Yeah. Ruby made it sound like it would be pretty unlikely for a team that doesn't kill to beat a team that does.

[camena]

... Yeah. She... did say that.

[ which is really throwing a wrench in alex's plan to just win through sheer effort and determination. ]

And now one team is already ahead. So. [ people will want to close that gap. ]

[honkinbigteeth]

We just need to keep trying to make the points back by getting the right answer at trial. And maybe they'll be less likely to try.

[camena]

You seem pretty optimistic about it.

[honkinbigteeth]

I'm trying to be. It's not so easy to do, but I'm trying.

[camena]

Glad I'm not the only one.

[honkinbigteeth]

[she will try to hold hands (paw) if alex is okay with it.]

You have a good team, too. Three of you are really nice, and the fourth of you is rude but in a way that is somewhat compelling.

[kazuki's bad boy energy. as far as she's aware, that's very attractive. probably he's already alex's boyfriend???]

[camena]

[ aww yis handholds. pawholds. ]

I think so too. Well, I don't think Kazuki's that rude, but. The rest of it. They're good eggs.

[ she did immediately know ylfa meant kazuki though so. ]

[honkinbigteeth]

[she did know she meant kazuki.]

He's a little bit rude.

[camena]

He just gets cranky.

[honkinbigteeth]

Every conversation we've had, he makes fun of me...

[camena]

Really? Like, what does he say?

[honkinbigteeth]

Like, I bet you're lying about liking pickles.

[camena]

Why would anyone lie about that...?

[honkinbigteeth]

I...I don't know!

[whats actually happening is every time they interact ylfa winds up telling a ridiculous lie to avoid looking uncool in front of kazuki and then he just points out it doesn't make sense.]

[camena]

[ help ]

Want me to yell at him?

[honkinbigteeth]

No! That would be so embarrassing...!

[camena]

What? No it wouldn't!

[honkinbigteeth]

Yes! It would! He'd know it hurt my feelings!

[camena]

Well someone has to tell him or he won't stop.
