It's the lack of tits for me. High key could see someone simping for that, though. [the. self confidence is new! wow! well, not SUPER new, because she's had little bursts of that this week already, but. she takes another sip of her drink.]
[Hmmmmm. He looks at himself again.] I guess I would look pretty good with a nice set if I was a girl… [The confidence comes through again. It isn’t necessarily arrogant so much as it’s just full of the confidence of looking good. He
pushes his arms against himself and forward to give himself cleavage. Hmmm. Unfortunately, she gets the feeling of a little horniness (he is thinking about boobs), but it isn’t so bad.]
Want to look around?
[He drops his arms again, accepting the fact he is not a really hot girl.]
[she fckin laughs when he gives himself cleavage? sorry that's just. very funny to her. stop being horny about boobs, she relates to that too much. you know, i've never actually thought about gideon's chest situation like. she's such a muscle jock that it's hard to picture. me running to anna's dms to show her pictures of hot women, ig.
anyway.]
Bet. You want one of these to cover up your tits, fam? [pointing to her kigu.]
[HELP drink another one and stack the bad decisions
He looks her over a minute, then he comes closer so he can start unbuttoning her down the front. He takes off his shoes and starts sticking each foot into the legs. He stands on top of her feet, turned around so they are back to front.
He buttons himself up inside to the collar. In an exaggeratedly deep voice:]
[the funniest part of this is she really just stands here and lets him do this. she is very patiently just letting him crawl into her kigu. and then he gives her that fucking dorky deep voice and she loses it, grabbing his arms so she can start swinging them around and walking around like they're godzilla or something.]
Beware, motherfuckers! [she says, in a very loud voice.] Flee or face Akideon, dog squared!
[When she loses it, he loses it a little too. She can feel the delighted glee roll up through her, warm and happy. The sunbeam of a friend toasting your insides.
He follows along with her movements; he’s on top of her essentially, so he must obey her whims anyway. He makes a roar for them.]
[nooo, that's so sweet!! he gets excited, and it hypes her up in turn - makes her feel warm, too. it's really nice, especially after last weekend - after finding him on the dock like she did, this fixes something that was jittery and worried in her chest.
she joins in his roar after a second, just really hollering for no reason, and stomps them off down a random hallway. maybe we can go to the fuckin' bar so i can get a different drink.]
[I'm thinking about this in actuality and they are literally so stupid doing this.
They can go back to the crazy zoo bar!! He is along for the ride exactly like a baby kangaroo. Imagine seeing them both in a dark alley looking like this. Actually, this is exactly how demons in his world work which is a little fucked up, but he has too much confidence this week to worry about that.]
Hey. I talked to Satan.
[There is no wave of Sads, though, so she doesn't have to fret.]
she doesn't seem to mind him chilling in here with her so she's just gonna flop them down somewhere after she orders a new drink. he can alien chest burster out of the kigu if he wants.]
[He does not get out of this kigu, so she really sits down, and he just kind of has to sit in her lap while buttoned up inside of it. HELP ME. Can't explain the kind of fond feeling he has for it. Not for being on top of her, but, like, being close to someone else.
He's unfortunately a little touch starved.]
It was shit for what I wanted, but... surprisingly not for the rest? He's... [There is uncertainty.] He's a cool guy?
[HELP this is stupid, it's fine he gets happy about getting to touch, and she finds nothing wrong with this because it's not like. horny. and it's not like she's not the same, so she wraps an arm around him and her easily enough with a little hum.]
Satan is a cool guy? No cap?
[you can see how little i am trying to do this drink it's going to wear off by next tag.]
[hmmm, sounds fucking dumb! she doesn't believe that! but it's fine. she feels the frustration and upset, and he'll feel a horrible feedback of that and a stubbornness that's approaching mulish.]
[The feedback loop of frustration and reserved anger.]
…That he was cool about it. He didn’t just say no. He tried to talk about it, about what I wanted to do.
[There are fond feelings about Satan??? Like there is trust there for the authenticity of Satan’s integrity.]
He said the contest was already an exception, so it was hard to make more exceptions for just me. He said he was sorry. About the offer being useless to me. And about Miki.
He said he wasn’t gonna cheat. [There is maybe a tendril if doubt here.] But he was used to the drinks in hell. It’d take something different to throw him off.
Honestly, if the worlds thing works, that's all we need.
[... she rests her head on his shoulder.]
Look, this can't be it. The guy's not going to give you a list of his greatest weaknesses. We'll figure something out, because I'm not leaving without Childe and the rest of them.
[He gives her head a lil bump under the chin with his shoulder. Usually, this would bother him a bit more, but unfortunately this week, he's feeling confident.]
I know. I wouldn't leave without them either. But what if... that really is everything? This is the first trial, or something. He said he wanted to do things different because it was so shit before.
I swear he's not a bad guy, Gideon. [COVERS UP HIS BAD SATAN MISTAKES don't know if it's funnier if satan turns out to be a bad guy or actually a good guy] You should talk to him. Especially about what you want. He said he wants everyone to have a chance, but he just isn't able to do it.
[the edit being ELBOW? is killing me like 12 hours later]
I might talk to him. Harrow thought it was better that people don't, so he doesn't get screeched at, but I'm not going to cuss him out. [she hugs him a little closer...]
Yeah, he sounded kind of, like, exhausted that everyone thought he was bad, or lying, or wouldn’t take no for an answer.
[He pats her arm.]
Me included. When I first started talking to him. Just so you know I didn’t take him for his word at first. I’m still skeptical, but… It seemed genuine, not fake?

I like them out, but I kinda want one of the outfits, though…

He leans his head back on one of her shoulders.]
Yeah. [He isn’t sure what he wants to say first, and the feel churns up out of him and into her.] Do you want the good news or the bad news first?
no subject
Bad, I guess.
no subject
Satan said the deal is the deal. Can’t play for anyone else, can’t push the contest to accept the old guard.
[Somehow, there is still some confidence, but a wave of frustration and upset curdles in Gideon’s stomach.]
no subject
So what's the good news?

no subject
Something different, huh. So what, we mix all the drinks together and throw them at him?
no subject
I dunno. He's used to them all so I dunno if that'd work.
[There's a small shrug, kind of helpless.]
Oh. The worlds, too. He said he'd have to look into it.
