[guestservices]

[...they tilt to rest their head on hers.]

I do appreciate it, even if I still don't feel it's necessary. But like always, I cannot stop you from expressing how you feel.

[evocationary]

[a little snort.]

That's right, you can't. I'm going to tell you over and over until you get sick of it.

[guestservices]

Like I'd ever actually get sick of you, come on. [not what she said, but okay.] Then perhaps that will make two of us. See how you like it.

[evocationary]

[her ear flicks.]

I could maybe stand to hear it more. Maybe that'll make me act less uh, less dumb.

[guestservices]

Then I'll make it my duty to tell you over and over again as well. See if it sticks, then.

[evocationary]

[... well they're going to get a hug, so suffer.]

[guestservices]

[no, YOU suffer because gemini's going to turn and just. reciprocate immediately. it is affection week, so don't mind them scooting a little closer.]

[evocationary]

[she hugs them very, very tightly, rubbing their back a little. this is really ideal? cuddles in a pile of dogs...

quietly:] We're going to be okay. Promise.

[guestservices]

[nothing can be bad when you're in a pile of dogs.]

I'm not worried. [they say, sort of in the way you tell yourself everything is fine even when it may not be true.] I think...you will act wisely during the term of your contract. You've always been clever.

[very tiring that they still have to sound like edgeworth but here we are. doing this stupidly.]

[evocationary]

[act wisely, they say.

she just... doesn't know which direction they think is wise. and it's not like she can ask them. so she just stays silent, nodding a little.

maybe things can be a little bad when you're in a pile of dogs.]

[guestservices]

[...she doesn't feel she can ask, but they do cuddle up to her a little to turn and look at her face.]

Uh...penny for your thoughts?

[evocationary]

You can't really talk about it with me, I don't think. [she says, after a moment.] I know what happens if I put my uh, my paw too far under the door, as it were.

[guestservices]

I guess that's true...[annoying...] But at least you have other people to support you when I can't.

[evocationary]

Mmhm. [she squeezes them once.] Don't worry too much about me.

[guestservices]

Uh huh. You know that's impossible, but...I'll try.

[because they understand why she says it. even if they don't move away.]

...remind me. What was your favorite thing to do on this Station?

[evocationary]

[



well, she's not telling them one of the things]

I liked playing the violin in the Planetarium, a lot. Hanging out on the beach with people I liked. Things like that.

[guestservices]

[thanks!]

...the beach?

[beach? beeeeeach?]

Of course. That does suit you. I've forgotten how large this place really is.

[evocationary]

Does it suit me? I... uh, it just reminds me of a really good year I had with my crew.

[ear flick.] This place is surprisingly big in comparison to the others. Except for the Prism. That place went on forever.

Why do you ask?

[guestservices]

I think it does in a way. [but they lean back a little to adjust the weight of the dogs.]

I suppose if I cannot really speak about myself, I'd like to hear more from you. Even if it's things I may already know.

[evocationary]

[she pets maus, absently.]

There are some things you might not. It's easy to mix up the versions of me, I think, so it might've gotten all scrambled in your files.

[guestservices]

While I'm usually meticulous with my notes...that is entirely possible. If you had to say one thing about yourself, what would it be?

[evocationary]

I'm very pretty.

[she is incapable of saying something serious]

[guestservices]

Very charming of you.

[but they don't really disagree either. and we can handwave that they vibed with dogs for a while if you want to wrap this since sheilagate happened.]
