a. in which chise does a public service announcement.

I don't know if this is OK, but... um! Happy Birthday, Pidge! I know we've just met and, you know, we're not close, but I ... I thought you could use this!

Anyway. That's it!

b. in which chise is looking at real-estate.

I'm thinking of moving into the city. I --um-- I lost my roommate

I've got plenty of empty rooms at my place.

[girlrewired]

[ th-that's pretty convenient!! ]

R-really?

[failsatsecrets]

Yeah. As long as you don't mind me working at all hours of the night, you're more than welcome here.

[girlrewired]

Mmm, not really?

[ hesitant:] I mean, um, I might ... well, I wouldn't mind. [ the truth is, normally, she wouldn't, but she's not so sure and doesn't want to be That One Person that ruins the party this arrangement by blowing his house beyond the barrier and back just because she wasn't too sure if it was him who made a noise or if someone broke in. ]

[failsatsecrets]

It's a pretty safe house, too. It only took one bastard sneaking in for me to make sure of that.

[Though, he'll fail to mention that the bastard in question just thought the house was empty... And wasn't ever a danger.]

[girlrewired]

People have sneaked into your house before?

[ THE SCANDAL ]

[failsatsecrets]

Just one. He didn't do it again. [Because Tony pissed him off.]

[girlrewired]

O-oh, um. That's good! [ she's not too sure about this now. ]

[failsatsecrets]

Yeah, it is. And don't worry, I won't be offended if you take another offer.

[girlrewired]

I promise I'll think about it.

Besides, I wouldn't want to impose. [ she really doesn't -- it's a little hard as it is to ask this kind of question. the only thing that weirds her out about this possible arrangement is the fact that he definitely (sort of) knows what he's dealing with. ]

[failsatsecrets]

You'd hardly be imposing on me. [But that totally makes him the best roommate.]

[girlrewired]

I'm - [ but what if he sneaks up on her and tries (futilely) to dismantle her? what if he modifies her in any way? ]

- I'm really clumsy! I'm not very good with dishes -- I always end up breaking them -- and, wh-when you think about it, I'm no good at anything, except maybe history, but there's nothing you can do with that, s-so.

[ she knows it's silly: she isn't in japan -- it certainly seems like she isn't in her world either; but a nag in her mind is all it takes to set her paranoia off. ]

I'm - I'm just saying I wouldn't be a very good roommate, Mr. Stark.

[failsatsecrets]

[Because he would totally try to do that.]

That's alright. There aren't really any dishes here besides glasses, anyway. And I'm okay with cleaning them if need be.

[ unfortunately, this is what happened to her. except, well, she doesn't quite remember what happened/what she was doing before she woke up as a weapon.

from then on, she was what they said she was. she was their property and that sort of vulnerability isn't one she'd like to experience again now that she's here. all that's missing is shuji. ]

[ a blush spreads throughout her face. being asked to live somewhere (with someone) and asking someone to live somewhere (with you), although different, are always and forever will continue being a nerve-wracking experience. also, a little stunning; stupefying? ]

[girlrewired]

[ her face is burning, she feels a little too embarrassed, but she laughs! ]

I - I can clean my own messes, you know!
