[Oh for the love of-- really? Is that what he thinks she meant?]
That isn't what I was trying to say. At all. I would believe that Alphonse Elric had killed a kitten before I would think that of you. I trust you. You should know this by now but apparently it bears repeating. And I hope you don't think of me as a person capable of doing something like that to anyone, much less you.
The thought that you might have forced yourself on me had never once crossed my mind. The material difference between the two incidents is this: I find that I am not physically attracted to Scar. I have never thought of him in that way. You... are different.

What I was afraid of was that I might have done something - or that we had. And that I couldn't remember it because of how much we had drunk. My reaction was irrational, as I know I have said, and I am sorry for it. You were sweet and I... wasn't sure how to deal with it. It's not exactly something I'm used to. Even

I promise to make sure that there isn't a camera on him before he sets foot outside his place, because I don't want to be harassed for wedding dates when we don't even know how any of this is going to go.

True...
I'll leave it up to you whether or not to tell him. He is your friend. Though I think it may be pertinent to remember he was in Intelligence. But in any case, if he starts talking to me about bridemaids' dresses or something else equally ridiculous, I can't be held accountable for my reaction.

[But he'd better not mope around and act like he doesn't want to be there or she's going to kick him out.]
Then I'll see you there.

[Pause, and then that sinks in. She's afraid she may never hear the end of it when Hughes hears about this.]
If you swear he isn't going to take any pictures. Then I have no problems.

[Yeah, she's still mad about that.]
... he really is going to make a big deal about this, isn't he?

...then again, there's also the possibility that he won't even notice unless we say something.
