Take it from me, only thing that makes you cool or not is how much you care about being it. Don't really get why people comment on your sweaters anyway. Though they look good from where I'm sitting.

You do anything else or just sweaters?

[Oh no. Why would he ask something like that? Does Yuu secretly think that's the case?]

[devoutish]

I'll make a generalization if you like, but don't be surprised if I go back on it later.

I save the man I know.

[2/2]

[allforyuu]

I'd never hate you. Never.

[Even if he hates being a vampire, he understands why Yuu pushed him to do it. At least it gives them more time together. He can't be angry about that.]

[magnitudes]

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME ABOUT THE LEGACY BEFORE I ASKED A GUY WHY HE WAS RIPPING OFF YOUR NAME

[dejerate]

[Yuu realizes he never asked, partly because he was afraid of the answer. Probably, if he'd asked right in the initial aftermath, he figures the answer could be different. And yet somehow it's...still just the answer he was expecting.]

I never did ask. Probably because I was scared, but. I don't hate you either, Mika.

I'm a master of cableknit. I made my sister Ali a giant cableknit blanket for Christmas. Sometimes scarves. I'm gonna branch out into turtle cozies if Darlene winds up getting one.

[catchacold]

See, I ain't an expert on things like that, but that sounds damn adorable to me. Only thing I can do with my hands is take.

[deadkord]

Nope. I've got an airship in the shape of a giant insect, though!

As for the ice cream flavors.... Rocky Road, mint chip, salted caramel swirl, and low-fat strawberry banana frozen yogurt. Rocky Road because life's just kinda like that; mint chip because it's a solid, dependable favorite; salted caramel swirl because it's a little different in just the right way... and the yogurt because some people have delicate stomachs that they can't not bitch about.

Describe your perfect date.

Ex-cops turned mercenaries aren't meant to be adorable, mate. Doesn't matter how many turtles I make look like hamburgers, I'm still more likely to break things apart - it's better people don't get the idea that I care, for their own sakes.

[socialactivillain]

It's less what you'd do specifically and more that you two have never been good for each other.

No matter how different you are from the Leonard Snart in our world, I don't think it's different enough.

[allforyuu]

[How could he hate Yuu, when his friend was one of the few good things in his life? Besides, he didn't turn Mika. Mika was already doomed the day Krul kissed him. What Yuu did was the kindest thing he could do, given the circumstances.]

[When he hears the last part, though, he ducks his head, crumbling as if in pain. Mika hasn't dared to ask him that before, mostly because he hates himself when he's like this. When he replies, his voice is shaky.]

Good. I'm glad.

[catchacold]

That's a big statement to make for someone who knows nothing and who backed off at the suggestion that we were more than friends.

[magnitudes]

Let me guess: it's a ladybird.

( :D )

I like it. Solid, variety. Do you ever think Rocky Road's just overkill, but? Like how hungover was the person who first invented that?

[catchacold]

I've seen worse people have their adorable moments. If people were that black and white, the world would be boring.

Hiding how you feel, yeah? Been there. Am there.

[acclimatized]

That's a shame. Why not?

[magnitudes]

Boring, sure. Might make it easier to keep people safe. Good are good, bad are bad, lines could be drawn real easy.

I am in a permanent state of hiding how I feel and then bleeding how I feel so thoroughly "wet floor" sign. Why are you hiding?

[dejerate]

Wh -- you didn't actually think I hated you?

[Because honestly. He never had. He never could. Not after spending so long thinking he'd lost Mika. The relief at that not being true kind of trumps any and all momentary flashes of frustration or annoyance. Easily forgiving him for Shinjuku, because Mika couldn't have known about Guren back then.

But of course he's oblivious to Mika's inner insecurities, worries. He has no idea the relief he just gave the other with those simple words.]

[magnitudes]

How do you feel about stepladders?

[catchacold]

Think part of the issue is that people draw lines that easily anyway. Just ain't true.

My father thought I shouldn't show emotion, that it's weakness. Made sure I wouldn't even cry while I get broken. He had real good ways of teaching a lesson that sticks.

[magnitudes]

People are a bit shit sometimes, hey?

My old man was— well, I don't know enough to know if he was the same, but it sounds familiar enough. "Have a spoon of cement, toughen up," yeah? I'm real sorry he treated you that way. I won't ask more because I don't like talking about it when people ask me, but that doesn't mean I'm not sorry.

[catchacold]

Sounds familiar. Don't worry about it, I killed him eventually. Only took forty years.

Sorry about yours too. Hope you caught up faster than I did.

[magnitudes]

I tried very hard to be lawful good. Dickhead's still knockin' about. Almost blew up his office when I was a kid, but.

Depends what you mean by "caught up", I guess.

[catchacold]

Figured out there's no depth to how bad a father can be faster than I did.

But lawful good, huh? What's your alignment these days?
