I'm sorry... um. At least you look very nice?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

I look like a girl.

[count_onme]

Well yes, but at least you make a very pretty girl? ... That's more than I can say for myself?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

[T-TWITCH]

. . . ah.

[count_onme]

I'm sorry, I guess that's hardly a compliment, is it? Ah... let's talk about something else?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

It's . . . alright. You didn't mean anything by it.

[count_onme]

People can be insulting without meaning to be.

But are you having an okay time, regardless?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

Mm. But it's the meaning that usually hurts.

Ah, I'm alright. It's nice to see everyone else having a good time. Ah, you and Franz . . .

[count_onme]

That's true enough, I guess.

Ah, Franz and I...?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

Oh! Um . . .

[count_onme]

...?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

. . . nothing, I guess! You two are just—I mean, you're dating, right?

[count_onme]

Ah... yeah. I mean, it's uh-- I uh. Yes.

[guess who is red to his roots.]

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

[covers a grin, blushing a little himself]

I'm . . . happy for you.

[count_onme]

Oh! Thank you. ... Is it-- are we really that obvious?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

[. . . fidgets]

Ah . . .

[count_onme]

Sorry! I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable! My bad. We can uh, talk about something else. ... Again. Uh. I'm not really doing so well with the whole polite conversation thing tonight.

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

No, it's fine, it's just. You told me.

[count_onme]

... I did?

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

In the . . . in the anonymous post.

[count_onme]

Ah! That was you? ... I had wondered.

... Don't worry, I can pretend as if it's still anonymous to me, if-- if that's what you're worried about.

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

No, it's . . . okay. I can't imagine you wanting to tell anybody.

[count_onme]

Mm, not really, no. That's part of the reason why I like to talk to people in those posts-- I think... it's good if people can get something off their chest to someone without worrying that it'll be revealed to other people.

[traplikerat.livejournal.com]

[nods]

For me, it would be bad, if . . .

[count_onme]

If other people knew? Because you're family's here, right?
