[r8] talking head: rei

[loveauthority]

[ Rei is led to a quiet room within the resort with a pair of hammocks to suit the scene, and upon one of them is where the overseer sits. She beams, shuffling her cards in hand (she will not use these), and motions for Rei to take a seat already!!!

This is the Talking Heads room, and there are cameras. Prepare to loosen those lips! ]

I'm not...

[ yeah, he's got nothing. ]

Did Stella tell you this?

[makeine]

I got eyes and ears, bucko! And it sounds like this Stella person does too!

[ or they're both delulu ]

[astrivise]

Yes well, she's quite the talented engineer. She's also known me since I was a teen.

[ they're not delulu, he's just this much of an idiot.

rei sighs. ]

...I'll admit I have a crush on my master, but lovesick is...

[ entirely accurate, he just can't bring himself to admit it. ]

[makeine]

[ they're getting somewhere... ]

Too much? We can leave it there, then. I just needed you to admit it since the last kind, pretty guy I knew never realized and now says the only one he's loved is me.

[ (redacted) aside its fine as far as will cares she IS ]

[astrivise]

[ a hum, thoughtful. ]

My Master is currently married, so it's a non-starter. And when he wasn't, I was his apprentice so it was hardly appropriate.

We're both the type to dedicate ourselves to our work, so really—I'm glad he's found someone more suited to him and is happy.

[ they're getting somewhere where the second rei problem rears its head because this man will run away so fast is anyone else shows interest- ]

[makeine]

[ boy mood ]

... Well, as long as you're happy. Don't regret not saying anything to him anyway?

[astrivise]

No, I don't. It doesn't stop me from holding him in my heart.

[ just like all these friendships he's going to go home with! ]
