Week 4, Wednesday

[rav3n]

[After the game, there is a robot hovering awkwardly nearby, as if it wants to approach again...]

[sexyasmieu]

[ watches it....

...... and waves? ]

[rav3n]

[



Glitches out of Woboji form, but still appears low-poly

:man_standing:]

[sexyasmieu]

Wha!?!?

[rav3n]

[glitches back into lowpoly Woboji form]

...Ah.

[sexyasmieu]

[ staring at him like ????!?!?? ]



... Luke?

[rav3n]

Um... [I don't know if the metaverse allows for emoji effects but the vibe of (sweatdrop) is strong enough that it doesn't even need to be visual anyway] ...I'm--not sure I should say.

[sexyasmieu]

Why not?

[rav3n]

To be honest, I don't know how safe this is. I'm pretty sure we're only here for the night, but I don't want to take too many risks.

[


Also he was dodging her on purpose but he obviously isn't going to tell her that now that he's been outed anyway]

[sexyasmieu]

... You're not going to disappear, are you?

[rav3n]

[Waves hand vaguely... HE WILL BE GLITCHING BACK AND FORTH between Woboji and his actual appearance, which will also vary between HD and low-poly. It's fine.]

We can't stay, but I think we'll be fine while we're here.

[sexyasmieu]

Okay, well... while we have the time...!

[ she'll give him a vr hug. whether he's woboji or not ig ]

[rav3n]

[IT IS AFFECTION WEEK... so even though he freezes briefly, after a moment, he hugs her back tightly. ANISEEEE]

[sexyasmieu]

[ hugging! ]

Man... You really gave everyone a scare, you know?

[rav3n]

I know. [Well. He can guess, anyway.] I'm sorry.

[sexyasmieu]

... Were you really sick all along?

[rav3n]

[The way he still absolutely hates talking about this... and Anise is one of the people he wants to lie to the most, but. It wouldn't be that hard for her to find out the truth in other ways, so... he will. Try.]

...I didn't think it would get that bad so quickly.

[sexyasmieu]

What was it?

[rav3n]

Something that happened at home. [He finally pulls back, though he leaves his hands loosely on her shoulders for now.] You don't need to worry. It wasn't--it doesn't have anything to do with the others.

[sexyasmieu]

I know... We figured that much out after the fact.

I just don't get why you didn't say something sooner, stupid!

[rav3n]

I talked to Io about it. [So at least he wasn't like. SUPER stupid.] I didn't think I'd need anything beyond that.

[sexyasmieu]

[ that... actually makes her feel a little better. if he did something to try to help himself. ]

... The stupid medbay didn't open until a few days later, too...

[ she's upset about that, too. ]

[rav3n]

[HE DID TRY... he sure did...

But he smiles, a touch wry.]

Yeah. We were planning on looking into more then. [Personally he doesn't think it would've made much difference, but it was very much a case of I see nonetheless.]

But I'm not in pain here, I promise.

[sexyasmieu]

Okay...

[ it looks like she's accepting what happened.

and then she remembers something and looks up. ]

... Hey, um, did you and Dahut run into Arthur and Gregor at some point!?

[rav3n]

Oh--yeah, we did. [A pause.] I mean, they only saw us face to face for a second. But Dahut and I saw them a little longer.
