Yeah, I know it is.

I'm trying to make up for it.

Well, now it theemth that I need to make FF go to the danthe with me no matter what, huh? Knowing that he'th killed her before, who'th to thay he won't again? The could break up with him after the danthe or thomething and he'll flip hith thit over it and that'th thomething I don't want to happen.

[He sighs]

I would kill to get my thionicth back.

She's not going with him. She already knows what he did.

Good. I jutht need to reathk her or at leatht figure out what the'th doing for homecoming.

How much of an idiot are you?

I think after rekindling her feelings for Eridan and then finding out he murdered her, she probably has a lot on her nutrition plateau, shithead. Try scraping the the built up mucus off your sensitivity glands and think for a minute.

Maybe she'd be interested but don't push her into getting involved with you now.

I didn't mean to go with me ath a date, fuckwad. If the planth on going, I want to be the one to go with her to make thure the'll be okay. I'm not the kind of perthon to catch thomeone on a rebound or whatever, I'm not Eridan.

Oh.

Well, okay, then.

Therioutly KK, do you think I'm the kind of perthon to do thomething like that?

Yes? Everyone here is fucking incompetent at rom. I've been running around all day.

If anything, I don't have the thelf confidenthe to try.

Oh please. You don't have to have self confidence to make a relationship work. I should know, I'm the tyrannical ruler of the mighty low self esteem empire, and I still get by.

I don't want to fight about thith KK.

Okay, fine. Go feel sorry for yourself, I don't care.

Can we theriouthly not thtart thith?

I'm not starting anything. All I'm trying to do is help you out, but you're obviously not having any of it, so I'm finishing.

I don't thee how pithing me off ith helping me out.

Okay, so I'm a piece of shit forever ruining your life, I can accept that. I'll just stop helping, what the fuck ever.

[Hangs up.

Not calling back in five minutes, either.]

[He's not but Sollux is]

KK, wait.

What?

You're not a piethe of thit and you're not ruining anything. I'm jutht kind of threthed and in a bad mood. I know you're jutht trying to help and I'm thorry that I made you upthet.

Fuck.

Don't apologize to me, I don't want to hear it. I know you're just in an awful mood like always and it isn't goddamn personal, okay?

Okay.

Tho we're on good termth again?

Yeah, I guess we are.

[Truth be told, he feels a little awkward around Sollux now that he knows about the Feferi situation and what a coward he is. But he isn't going to get past that so easily.]

Good. I gueth I'll thee you at thcool tomorrow?

I'll be there.
