[selfhatred]

UH. HEY.
ANYTHING YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT, BRO?

[Wow, way to go, Vantas.]

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

uM,
nOT PARTICULARLY ALL THAT MUCH, wITH YOU, nO,

uHHH, i MEAN BECAUSE YOU AREN'T A LIZARD,

[ALSO BECAUSE OF REASONS.]

[selfhatred]

[And private, because you're going to talk about this, bitch.]

LOOK, I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU LIKED HER TOO.
WHEN ERIDAN TOLD ME HE WAS PUTTING THE MOVES ON HER I PANICKED.
I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT ANYONE ELSE'S FEELINGS.

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

uHHH, i DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN, kARKAT,
i DON'T LIKE ANYONE,
eR, i MEAN, iN THE ROMANTIC SENSE,
aLSO SINCE WHEN DOES ERIDAN LIKE JADE, tOO,

[selfhatred]

WHATEVER YOU WANT TO BELIEVE.
BUT I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT ANY FEELINGS THAT MIGHT BE PRESENT.
WHAT REASON DOES ERIDAN NEED TO FLIRT WITH SOMEONE?

[lookupforme]

You should close your eyes, and put your ear to the floor. Pretend the echoes you hear are the gecko's crawling across the floor boards.

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

oH, i NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT,,,
bUT IT'S NOT THE SAME AS, uM, tHEM STILL BEING HERE, bUT,
i THINK i WILL DO THAT, bECAUSE i REALLY MISS THEM,

[lookupforme]

You can't talk to your friends?

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

i DON'T THINK, tHEY WOULD REALLY UNDERSTAND,

[tellsthestories]

Tavros, you poor dear. You can talk to people that aren't lizards!

I'll gladly listen to you.

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

i DON'T KNOW, iF YOU WOULD REALLY WANT TO HEAR ABOUT, uM, aNYTHING i HAVE TO SAY,
iT'S ONLY THINGS THE, lIZARDS REALLY UNDERSTOOD,
nO OFFENSE INTENDED, i MEAN,
bUT NO ONE REALLY GETS IT EXCEPT THEM, i THINK,

[tellsthestories]

Well, you certainly don't have to talk to me, but unless you're secretly a reptile, I doubt the lizards can understand you better than your classmates.

It's not like they're dogs, after all.

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

bUT THE LIZARDS LISTENED, uM, tO EVERYTHING i SAID, aND WERE VERY NICE,
i THINK THEY DID KNOW, wHAT i WAS SAYING,

[tellsthestories]

I think so, too! I didn't mean to discredit the lizards' intelligence. I think animals are very smart.

I'm just not sure how much lizards know about people.

[fashioneighsta]

You might get a cat, they're very good listeners!

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

rEALLY,
i'VE NEVER HAD A CAT, bEFORE,
uH, wE ONLY EVER HAD DOGS, aND SMALL THINGS,
lIKE FISH AND, fERRETS,
aLSO WE HAD, uM, a BULL ONE TIME BUT WE HAD TO, gET RID OF IT,

[fashioneighsta]

I can say for a fact that Opal always listens to my troubles! [...or Rarity just assumes she's listening.]

Do you live on a farm?

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

uM, nO,
mY DAD JUST REALLY LIKED BULLS A LOT,
bUT i CAN SEE WHERE YOU WOULD, bE CONFUSED MAYBE,

[mo_cara]

YoU oKaY, mY bRoThEr?

[private] and also i'm doing this tag under the assumption that things ended awkwardly for them.

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

uHHH,
i DON'T KNOW,
i MEAN, iT'S KIND OF COMPLICATED, aND SOMETHING i'M NOT SURE IF,
yOU WOULD WANT TO ACTUALLY, uHHH, tALK ABOUT,

[[OOC: ^ if that's okay with you, since I'm not sure when it'll ever be finished. Basically I'm having Tavros be like, really unsure whether talking to Gamzee about his feelings involving Jade is a good idea or not, since he doesn't want to hurt Gamzee's feelings. If this is too much then I redo this tag!]]
