...Oh.

[ okay, now he feels kind of bad. it's not like he was angry about receiving a goofy message not meant for him, but it sounds like it wasn't even carelessness that put them in this situation.

really, he should have known Falco better than that. he sighs. ]

I wasn't aware. I guess that explains why there's even more stupid shit getting posted on here than usual, though.

[ he pauses for a moment, considering. ]

Well, I saw nothing, then. How's that work?

[grice]

[ this doesn’t remedy how deeply flushed falco is to the point of looking like a pine tree. his face is in his hands when he mumbles: ]

You still know, so . . .

[ gag tag come to life. kinda gay. ]

[dirtdevil]

I don't know who this was meant for, though. And it sounds like these aren't even your real words. So what do I actually know, then? Maybe that you like someone? Like I said, it's none of my business.

[ plus, what's Falco gonna do, ask him for dating advice? unlikely. nobody's that desperate. ]

[grice]

[ falco keeps his head down and his hands together. ]

Like, maybe . . .

[ he's desperate. it's him. ]

[dirtdevil]

[ ...ah.

well, then.

he's quiet for a moment, considering. then: ]

Maybe, huh?

[grice]

[ help him he doesn't know what to do now— besides being beyond the green of a tree at this point. ]

. . . Mhm.

[dirtdevil]

[ wow. he is not even remotely equipped for this shit. his fake son is growing up so fast.

incredible. ]

They don't know?

[grice]

I tried, but . . . The messages never got to him.

[ and they screwed up! ]

But I was, um . . . Going to go there. Today. In person.

[dirtdevil]

[ he winces a little in sympathy. he's never done anything like this—the admitting of feelings between him and Erwin was less a confession than both of them just breaking—but to a certain extent he can imagine how it must feel. ]

Sorry. No one else should have been able to see something that personal.

[ himself included. he pauses. ]

But I think telling him in person might be a better idea anyway.

can that be…. a wrap 👀 🌯

[grice]

—A-and I’ll do that, right now, or soon—

[ he shouldn’t get all antsy and forget the most important thing, like, his actual things, and letting the adults know about his whereabouts. with all that already halfway said and done, falco bows his head with gratitude and a flash of green across his face. ]

—And thank you, for understanding and, [ a swallow, and before it got awkward: ] thank you.
