Your country annexed mine and you were pretty instrumental in that. But... you didn't want to be, and you were so sad about it, it was really hard to be upset with you once we actually met.

[awakenerd]

[Oh. Yikes.]

Maybe you're just a really nice guy...

[crimeson]

I think it can be both.

[awakenerd]

Hm. Well the really nice guy part is pretty much confirmed already.

[crimeson]

And I already know about the rest.

[awakenerd]

The rest?

[crimeson]

[shakes his head, just reaching over to ruffle his hair.]

How you were kind of a sad puppy about the whole mess, with your own circumstances.

[awakenerd]

A... A sad puppy... I see....

[He's embarrassed now. He's apparently not allowed dignity?]

[crimeson]

It's all good. I'm occasionally also a sad dog, so I get it.

[awakenerd]

Mm... well, if you're ever sad I would be happy to cheer you up.

[crimeson]

[I'VE JUST BEEN MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD]

...Thanks, man.

[awakenerd]

Like when you make an expression like that...

[crimeson]

That-- really sounded like a pickup line. But knowing you I figure it wasn't.

[awakenerd]

It... did? I... I didn't realize. Sorry.

[He still doesn't know why it sounded like a pickup.]

[crimeson]

Yeah, I know.

[RUFFLES.]

[awakenerd]

...Did you want me to be hitting on you..?

[Nah that can't be.]

[crimeson]

...Wow, that's like, the most perceptive you've ever managed to be on this front, probably.

Yeah.

[awakenerd]

Hey! Are you saying I'm not per--

...


What?

[What?]

R-really?

[Behold. Cool immortal Rean.]

[crimeson]

You're really dense as a brick on this specific front. Yeah, really.

But you don't have your memories back, so don't worry too much about it.

[awakenerd]

[I'm what???]

Randy....

[crimeson]

Yeah?

[awakenerd]

What exactly was our relationship..?

[crimeson]

Friends and coworkers. 'Course, I had a huge crush on you, but you didn't notice that was the case with like, everyone who was at all close to you, so.

[awakenerd]

[??????????????????????

Wait everyone? That's metaphorical right??]

S-sorry! I--I don't even remember it but I, I'm really sure I didn't mean to be a jerk!

[crimeson]

[it's so literal sweetie.]

You don't need to apologize. I wouldn't calling it being a jerk? Just... dense.
