a guy asked me out
a guy i like
yknow hes cool and shit & its fun bein around him
aannnnnddddddd...
i turned him
down
whcih was weird

[heartboobs]

No it's not.

[Maya has turned down many such offers in her life. (´･ω･`)]

[drunkenfist]

yea it is
4 me at least

[ one of the things she wanted back home was a boyfriend; the AR told dirk as much. someone to love her and stave off her loneliness. now that she had the chance she completely fucked it up. ]

tbh i dont know why im texting u
i guess i just needed someone 2 talk to

[heartboobs]

And I want to listen, Roxy. You don't need a reason.

...Are we talking boyfriend here? Or just asking for a date?

[drunkenfist]

[ kjdhkdsg ;_; maya-sis. why so awesome? ]

ummm........
tbh i dont
actually know
ididnt ask
it all halppend kinda fast

{1/2}

[heartboobs]

[Because you deserve it, Roxy.]

So you refused without knowing exactly what you were refusing?

{2/2}

[heartboobs]

[A good few seconds later...]

Not judging you. Only trying to wrap my head around this.

[drunkenfist]

[ bluh. roxy hates having to keep secrets so being vague about this is pretty much driving her up a wall. but she doesn't wanna like... put too fine of a point on this out of respect for adachi's privacy.

which is kind of a laughable concept, seeing as he's the one that posted on the network about having—or assuming he had—a girlfriend? god roxy feels her head numb thinking about this. ]

yes & no???
shits so complipicated i dont know where to start
well scept for the whole shitty misunderstanding

[heartboobs]

[...Or he could've just been using the term for conversation's sake. To endear himself to his listeners. Like how Maya had heard it.]

I'm all ears. ...Fingers? Eyes?

Anyway, keep going. Hahaha! :) Tell me about this misunderstanding.

[ SHUT UP MAYA YOU'RE NOT A FIFTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL... ]

irregardless
shit got all mixed up &
he said he was talking abuot me

[drunkenfist]

and thats when i said no
sorta
i feel rly stupid talking about this

[heartboobs]

[AND THAT'S WHAT ADACHI LIKES ABOUT ME]

Don't talk about yourself that way. Please. You're not stupid.

Sometimes, our hearts or brains or whatevers speak up for us on their own. And they do it for a very good reason.

Maybe you were meant to say no.

[drunkenfist]

[ HAHAHahahHAHAhahahahahha....... ]

LMAO nooooo maya-sis i know im not stupid
but i FEEL stupid bc
its a rrrrrrlllllllyyyyy stupid sitch to be dealin w/ u know

what do you mean

[heartboobs]

[She doesn't quite agree that it's a really "stupid sitch", either, but...she also figures there's nothing better she can do right now aside from what she's already doing.]

Well, are there any reasons why you would WANT to say no? Tell me.

I can think of a few.

[drunkenfist]

i can think of bout 20
but i wanna hear urs first

[heartboobs]

...You sure?

I don't want to take over the convo.

[drunkenfist]

no no
go ahead
i am ALL KIDS of paticnt
*pacient
*i can wait

[ it'll give her a chance to get another drink. or something to eat. ]

{1/2}

[heartboobs]

Too fast.

You might not know him well enough.

Other things are more important.

{2/3} i lied

[heartboobs]

A set relationship like that isn't needed, in this world or our own...

Unless you both [Claire Stanfield wisdom launching off in 1...2...3...] really, really get each other.

{3/3}

[heartboobs]

HINT: If there's a lot of "no's" that isn't the case.

Now, what are yours?

[drunkenfist]

[ roxy knows she doesn't need a relationship with someone to make her feel good about herself. living in a world surrounded by carapaces that looked after her (in some cases—in others, they were quite hostile, though she understands that their desire to live was just as strong as hers), roxy got to give back to them when she was older, as thanks mainly.

but it would be nice to have someone interested in her. she'd fight maya on this but she honestly doesn't feel like it. she came to the older woman for advice and that's what she's getting. ]

y
y
y
plus theres
so many other details i dont wanna get into
but sufifce to say they make things nnnNOT run smooth @ ALL

[ she pauses there, wondering if she should indulge in the rest of the details that don't involve jake, dirk, the ar or the unrequited Thing she still has for dirk that she'll eventually learn to grow out of but can't let go of yet.

if she's going to get the help she needs to figure this all out, then she might as well. ]

&
i mean
we alreayd
fucked

[heartboobs]

I see. ...And how do you feel about that?

Having slept with him, I mean. Does it make you feel like you should say "no" or "yes"?

[drunkenfist]

wwwweeeeeeeelll......
i guess i must like it otherwise i wouldnt
have slept with him more than once
i dont think idm ind getting to know him better

[heartboobs]

You "guess"?

Roxy, is a lot of the relationship sex at this point?

[drunkenfist]
