I'm pretty sure Rapunzel can see the good in everyone. That's- that's literally what she does, all the time. She loves everyone in the known universe.

[Except for Uncle Monty for some really fucking weird reason that Varian doesn't understand and is afraid to ask about at this point.

But she's right. There are people in this town who love him regardless of his... everything. He doesn't feel like he deserves it, but they love him anyway.]

...Maybe. I don't think it's as good or true as you think, but I am trying to make it better.

[lightthedarkness]

Stealing my job from me to give to Rapunzel, hm?

[She smiles.]

Oh? You don't? What's your user name, Varian?

1/2

[droptheious]

I'm pretty sure she'd give you a fair fight for the title is all I'm saying.

And it's Trie-

2/2

[droptheious]

[He sees what you're doing, Usagi. HE SEES YOU.]

...It's a science pun.

[lightthedarkness]

Sure you're not just biased against the moon?

Hmmmm suuuure it is.

What's the pun, Varian?

[droptheious]

No.

[Yes.

Just you, know, the most petulantly:]

Trienemybest.

[lightthedarkness]

[Liar.]

AAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL I keep hearing is "trying my best" don't hear ANY science in there~

[droptheious]

[EXCUSE?!!]

Triene is any compound contacting three double bonds. There's your science.

[lightthedarkness]

Hmm, interesting, and yet, it sounds SO MUCH like tryin' my best. You could have gone with soooo many other chemicals, but you went with a pun that is all about you trying to do better. You have allllllll these chemical compounds and you go with that pun?

Just admit it, Varian.

[droptheious]

That's... that's literally the pun, Usagi. And I didn't put that much thought into it, it was the first one that came into my head.

[He's digging his heels in because god forbid he admit defeat.]

Nothing to admit.

[lightthedarkness]

So the first thing that popped in your head was telling people you're trying your best? [Cause she promises you, Varian, not that many people will catch the pun.]

You can pretend all you want, Varian, but I see you.

[droptheious]

I was an easy pun, you're looking too much into it.

And that. [He says like he's putting a final nail down on this even if Usagi is absolutely right.] Is that.

[lightthedarkness]

Well, just keep trying your best, Varian. I'll support you no matter what.

[droptheious]

[He sighs, looking up at the ceiling. She really is doing her best, even if it stings- even if he feels like he doesn't deserve it right now. He offers her a small smile.]

...Thanks, Usagi. I really do appreciate that. I just need... a little time is all.

[lightthedarkness]

[She smiles, back, maybe a bit sadly but forces it away for Varian.]

Of course, I'm always here if you need me.

[droptheious]

I know. And I'll let you know if I need you. I'm... gonna try to get a little more sleep now. Please take it easy, it sounds like it's still bad out there.

[lightthedarkness]

Of course. Rest well, yeah? I'll come by with tea and food tomorrow. No, you can't stop me.

[droptheious]

Okay, okay. I make no promises on Fern though. Better get your charm on.

[lightthedarkness]

I'm always charming, Vivi-kun.
