Sticking with my team. I think even Kazuki's gonna be there.

[ wow? ]

[ohthehumanities]

Is that unusual? [Or did something happen...]

[camena]

Oh, uh... Nnnnooo?

[ sometimes you're a bad liar. ]

[ohthehumanities]

[raises an eyebrow]

[camena]

... Everything's fine now!

[ohthehumanities]

[help]

You don't have to tell me the details. But it's fine if you do--he was mad at me too.

[Though they are also... a little better now, he thinks? In the sense that poor Kazuki yelled at him and then found out through Emotions that Kaveh is a hot mess, actually, and then felt bad about it,,,]

[camena]

... What was he even mad at you for?

[ asks alex, when she and kaveh also snapped at each other a little bit ago. it's fine. she's forgotten now. who cares. ]

[ohthehumanities]

[Wryly--]

I'm sure you can probably guess.

[Kazuki is, pretty open, about the things that piss him off,,,]

[camena]

... Yeah, probably.

[ hah. ]

Anyway, I think he's in a better mood now.

[ohthehumanities]

That's good. It'll be rough if you aren't getting along with your teammates.

[FUCKING D.]

[camena]

Yeah, seriously... But I tried to pick teammates that I'd get along with to begin with. I thought.

[ohthehumanities]

[Kaveh nods.]

They're good people, I think. [Like. Granted, all of them are technically strangers--but Kaveh is fond of them, and closer to them than he is to some others.] We're all finding our footing, though. There are bound to be some growing pains.

[camena]

I'm trying to keep that in mind. Some people just... aren't good in a pinch, no matter how much you love 'em.

[ohthehumanities]

[That gets a little smile out of him.]

Or they're too good, which is also a problem.

[camena]

Oh yeah?

[ohthehumanities]

Yeah. People who will solve the problem, but aren't comforting whatsoever.

[camena]

Such aaaaas?

[ohthehumanities]

NARROWS EYES LIKE HE'S TRYING TO GUESS IF SHE'S PROMPTING HIM INTO TALKING ABOUT ALHAITHAM OR JUST BEING GENUINELY CURIOUS]

[camena]

[ i mean it's the former but she is playing coy. who's to say. it could be either. you don't know. ]

[ohthehumanities]

[This is true

However, he is wildly paranoid at all times and doubly so about Alhaitham for (static) reasons so he will just accuse her with no evidence anyway]

You're trying to get me to talk about Alhaitham again!

[camena]

You brought him up on your own!

[ohthehumanities]

[He really does this to himself it's so stupid]

I was just--making an example!

[camena]

It was a pretty specific example.

[ohthehumanities]

[This cr really is just Alex successfully bullying a 28-year-old man on the regular]

It wasn't! There are other people like that in the world?!

[camena]

[ it's his own fault for being bullyable. ]

But you didn't bring any of them up.
