[It might do him some good to do that.]
I guess so? I mean- we didn't want things to get to the point where they were broken beyond repair. She still means a lot to me.
But thanks... it helps to know that. It's not like I have any real experience with any of this.
[He's not exactly been given the opportunity to do regular teenage things back home- including relationships and breakups. He's working blind here.]
Re: Audio
[She knows her boy.]
That's good, but you know, as mature as it is to try and remain friends, it's also HUMAN to just need some space apart to think about things, take a breath. So you don't need to be jumping into best friends hanging out for hours with sleepovers right away, if ever.
Honestly? I've never had experience with a breakup either. [Because she's Manga!Usagi, not 90s!Usagi and never once had to deal with 90s!Mamoru's bullshit breakup.]
Audio
[He'll keep talking as he gets himself ready to leave, Ruddiger hopping up onto his shoulders. ]
...That's.... that's actually comforting to know. It's been a lot harder than I thought it would be. It hurts a lot more than expected- even knowing it was what needed to be done.
[He's leaving the house as he snorts softly.]
Okay that I can believe. No one would be crazy enough to do what with you.
Audio
No, I have a different issue. Everyone kidnaps and brainwashes Mamoru or tries to murder us both and insist the only cure is by being with her. I don't think that's very common with most people.
But it's not like I've got a million offers lining up to date me, Vivi-kun. Lots of people don't see me as attractive. [Part of the whole "she's a lot" thing she struggles with.]
no subject
[Because he's sure not feeling that right now. He'll just hop onto Max and start making his way over- there's a steady clip-clop of hooves in the background. ]
...Yeah, no, Usagi. Pretty sure that's not common at all. And people are stupid, you're very pretty.
no subject
I mean, he's gorgeous, smart, kind, skilled with a sword, supportive, and makes you feel safe in his arms when he holds you. Even you would fall in love with him, Varian. Because everyone falls in love with him. He's too amazing, it seriously really is troublesome just how many people have kidnapped him to try and force him to be with them.
[She blushes and waves a dismissive hand.]
My personality and eating habits ruin the pretty, I'm sure. I'm really nothing compared to the girls.
no subject
[There's a distinctive pause really because honestly, that first part is pretty much Varian's type with a capital T. ]
...Okay that's fair. You're very lucky to have him, I'm glad that you do. And I very much disagree. You're one of the best people I know. Your personality is one of your best traits. I won't believe otherwise.
[Oh hey, knock knock, the boy's here. ]
no subject
Varian! [She gathers Varian up in a hug, twirling him as she does so.]
Thank you Maaaax! [She waved to the horse.] I've got fresh apples for you hold on!
[Much like Ruddiger's snacks, Usagi kept apples on hand for Maximus.]
And hello to you too, Ruddiger. [She scratched the raccoon under his chin.]
no subject
Max and Ruddiger make their respective animal noises at her and he chuckles softly.]
They say thanks. One day they're probably going to escape here and camp out on your lawn and you only have yourself to blame.
no subject
[She pressed a kiss to Varian's temple.]
So, come on, let's get you my special hot chocolate and we can sit for a chat. If you want to make cookies I've got the supplies for it.
no subject
[The siren call of Usagi's special hot chocolate is... really pleasant actually, so he smiles and nodes following her inside. He takes off his boot, then pauses and looks at his...uh. Leg. Does he take it off? It's not technically a shoe but also it kind of is? He doesn't want to make a cultural faux pas so he kind of just... shifts awkwardly.]
...I'm not actually sure about the protocol here.
no subject
Here, this one is your regular one and then a larger one. I mean, unless you built the foot to have the same size as your actual foot and then you can just use your regular slipper.
I'll buy you a new set so that they look the same, even if one will be bigger.
no subject
Thanks. I really appreciate that. I didn't want to offend.
no subject
Besides, I will never say no to an opportunity to shop.
Now, come on, snacks and hot chocolate await!
no subject
[He snorts softly, following her into the house proper.]
Oh, well. If that's the case, don't let me get in the way of your shopping.
no subject
Varian, the apocalypse cannot get in the way of my shopping.
[Is she joking?]
So! [She made her way into the kitchen, a plate of Makoto's sweets and cookies in the center of the kitchen island.]
Shall we jump right into how you're feeling or do you want to talk about other things and slowly work our way to the breakup?
no subject
Oh, I know. Believe me, I know.
[He follows behind her, his smile starting to fade a little.]
N-no, it's fine. We can talk about it. [He looks down, holding his arm in a hand in that self-comforting gesture of his.] I mean- I don't know. I know it was the right thing to do, and we were just on the way to making one another miserable. And we're still gonna try to be friends so it's not like I'll never speak to her again. But... I'm still kinda sad too?
no subject
You can be all of that, you know? Sad, happy, miserable, tired, excited. [She reached up and ran a hand through his hair.] Humans are incredibly complicated.
You are allowed to be sad. You are allowed to be happy, if that's what you want to feel.
How were you making each other miserable?
no subject
I know. I know I can feel all of that. I'm just... I don't know. Mentally sorting it out still. Like putting stuff into boxes when you move house or... something.
[He shakes his head.]
We weren't there yet, but it was looming. [He picks at the sleeve of his shirt.] When things were good here, we were great. But when things got bad it was... hard. We're really different people and as much as we hoped our difference balanced out they just... weren't. I guess we were going different places and realised we could support each other better as friends. Gives more of a chance to step back when we need to.

no subject
[A touch of defensiveness might be creeping into his tone, his arms folding as those protective walls of his creep up a little. He and Ruby had been ignoring the fractures between them for months, willfully hoping they'd magically fix themselves. They did not, and they decided to cut it off while there were still fissures instead of gaping chasms. ]
This was as much her choice as it was mine. I didn't run at the first sign of trouble. Neither did she.
no subject
[She reached out again, and true to Usagi form she went for it and grabbed his hand, pulling him closer to her, into a hug. Forever suffer forced hugs, Varian. She couldn't rest her chin on his head so she settled for his shoulder... sorta.]
I didn't think either of you ran at the first sign of trouble. I know you didn't, and wouldn't. [Neither would... especially the two of them. More often than not, they had a bad habit of running headfirst INTO trouble.]
no subject
It was just... hard, I guess. I'm not good at- people stuff anyway, and this was a whole new thing to deal with. I guess I'm just trying to figure out what to do now.
no subject
Well, what you do now is you drink some hot chocolate, we watch some really really bad sci-fi and horror movies, they're called B-movies. And I introduce you to the wonderful world of racing video games.
And then, we talk about whatever you want. Can be Ruby or not Ruby, it can be science though I make absolutely no promise I can follow along, it can be about baking, even if you want. You can even sing if that's what you're in the mood for.
no subject
I'd really appreciate all of that, Usagi. [He hugs her a little tighter.] I really appreciate having you around. I love you a lot.
