[ this

this makes him actually laugh? help. it's the why-the-hell-are-we-stuck-in-this-ridiculous-situation kind of laugh, the kind you can't help. a sort of wryness to it, as he drops his head and then lifts it again. nine hells. ]

...You ever think you'd be stuck in a situation where you were talking so seriously about a fucking gumball? I didn't even know what that was until I got here.

[ She has to smile a little in return. Phrased that way, she can't really deny it. ]

I could repeat everything you just said. [ She rests her cheek in her palm. ] Add rainbow animals and tattoos, and it really seems like some wild hallucination you'd have after taking too many drugs.

[ But they're all sober. Probably. ]

[daggering]

[ maybe they're just on one of scanlan's wild suud trips. bad. ]

Man. Drank liquor once that made me feel like I could taste colors, made half my face numb, but I snapped out of it with a hell of hangover a few hours later. Been to the Feywild and it wasn't even this weird.

[ mostly. the feywild did kind of suck, actually. ] Think it'd be even more fucked up if I woke up and it was just a dream, though. You know?

[disingenuous]

I'd like to hear more about that someday.

[ When things are slightly less depressing. ]

But you're right. I don't want to think my mind was capable of thinking up what we're experiencing.

[ Even if she's sure that outside of the technicolor everything, it wouldn't be that far out of a dream she could have. ]

It'd be too ridiculous.

[daggering]

Way too ridiculous, and I have seen some weird shit.

[ another huff of a laugh. maybe they are all just tripping.

he's quiet for a minute, glancing out at the stars for a little longer, and then turns to actually look at roxana. ]

Might be a better story, after such a shit night. [ because what else can they do right now, but pick up the pieces and wait until ryza destroys us all sunday ] I can make a fool of myself well enough for a distraction.

[ It takes a moment, but she smiles at him when he turns to look at her. It's small but it's more genuine than any other smile she's given tonight. ]

Thank you for being so willing to be a distraction. [ ... ] I think it's much needed for me tonight.
