[she keeps looking at him, but she lets him grab her hands off his face.]

... It's not weird. [she's just not used to people saying stuff like this to her without something horrible following it]

[selfimmolation]

[ he stares right back, cocking his head ]

You sure? You're kind of acting like it is.

[sharkgirl]

[it takes her a second, because there's a lot she wants to say, but none of the stuff that would be nice or good or appropriate makes it out.]

That's the kind of thing people say when they're going to die.

[selfimmolation]

[ ah. he hesitates

then he boops the rim of the hat so it kind of shadows her eyes ]

We all might. But I've got no plans to die in this place.

[sharkgirl]

[you are not making her worry any less, ace

we all might, he says, and she reaches up to hold onto the brim of his hat with both hands. keeps her face hidden.]

... You wanna go home, right?

[selfimmolation]

I'm sure as hell not staying here. [ it's a terrible place to be actually. it sucks. ]

[sharkgirl]

Yeah, same. [she doesn't wanna be a prinny] I don't want to go back either, though.

[selfimmolation]

... That's not so surprising. Your world sounds... [ like. the worst. ] Shitty.

[sharkgirl]

It just didn't have room.

Tama told me to ask other people about their worlds and see if there was anything I liked about them.

[selfimmolation]

... Yeah? Are you going to do that?

[sharkgirl]

[she tilts her head back so she can look out over the railing.]

Eh. Maybe.

[selfimmolation]

[ looks back at the ocean himself ]

It's not the worst idea.

[sharkgirl]

I think it'd be stupid to get my hopes up.

[selfimmolation]

... I guess there's no telling if anyone could bring you with them. [ he pauses ] Though you're probably worrying about something else.

[ whether they'd want to, he guesses ]

[sharkgirl]

[she leans on the railing.]

Can't really invite yourself to someone's world without looking like a huge loser.

[selfimmolation]

Could always pick someone who already thinks you're kind of a loser.

[ this is just a tease to lighten the mood but also this is how he is going to get bitten ]

[sharkgirl]

[correct she just punches him right in the side die]

[selfimmolation]

[ just laughs like an asshole like it didn't even faze him he sucks ]

[sharkgirl]

[she makes a face at him, but doesn't protest him laughing, just kind of hides a smile and looks back out over the railing]

[selfimmolation]

[ rooftop ocean watch ... though after a while, since he is still trying to lighten the mood after their goddamn mess of a day; ]

Their trip. Did they tell you I was a goat? I can't get away from it.

[sharkgirl]

[that makes her snort.]

Really? No, they didn't. [she glances at him.] Hmmmm. I can see it.

[hehe]

[selfimmolation]

[ shoves her, jokingly ]

C'mon! This team thing, the horoscope thing, that weird trip... It's bad enough.

[ next week: scapegoat! ]

[sharkgirl]

[hits you on the head with a stick no]

Maybe someone just thinks you're really stubborn! Or that you'll eat anything... [shoves him back jokingly]

[selfimmolation]

I wouldn't eat anything! I've drawn the line before, you know!

[ when. also, hilarious that he doesn't even argue about being stubborn ]

[sharkgirl]

Yeah, like at what?
