I still keep my eyes out for trouble, you know.

Hey, is everything all right? I thought I saw Roxis walking Vayne back to the dorms earlier, and he looked in a pretty bad state. I don't think I've ever actually seen him with blood on his face before. And we've been in some epic fights. I haven't heard from Vayne in a while, either.... Did something happen?

...Seriously, is everything okay? You're not giving me any reassurances, here.

[strivinghigher]

Everything's fine!

[justicewearsred]

...
You know, you said you two were going to fight, but you didn't have a scratch on you. I won't countenance you actually hurting him.

[thewishfire]

Flay, it really is fine. Honest. I... asked for it.

[justicewearsred]

...That's what they all say. I hope you're not so ignorant that you don't know how that actually sounds.

[thewishfire]

No, no, I mean... literally asked for it. As in with words.

[justicewearsred]

...Oh.

Well. My apologies. Carry on, then.

[strivinghigher]

 

[thewishfire]

...S-sorry. I had to tell him something, or he'd think you were actually abusing me.

It was lovely. Incredible. Beyond words. Thank you.

[strivinghigher]

It's okay. I understand why you had to tell him. I'm just going to pretend I'm not blushing.

You're welcome. It was lovely, wasn't it... "Next time," you said...

[thewishfire]

"Next time." That really was my first thought.

Writer's Block today is asking what hour you'd relive again. That was longer than an hour, I'm sure-- not that I remember time so well-- but I'd relive that in a heartbeat.

[strivinghigher]

You don't even have to wish on it.

[thewishfire]

I know. I know I don't.

Just, thank you. Gods, thank you so much. Talk about... talk about granting a wish with your own two hands....

[strivinghigher]

You're welcome. It was more fulfilling than I anticipated for me, as well... I'm quite glad I did offer, in the end, even though you were such an easy target. In fact, I bested you after all-- by making you want to wear yourself out and become helpless.

[thewishfire]

Gods, yes. You had me from the very beginning. You inspired all that in me... it's all you....
