Heh. I meant—

[ But he stops. It doesn't really matter. ]

I'm always down for that, too.

[sangreine]

...What did you mean? Sorry, I'm... my head is spinning, so I'm probably missing things.

[at_heart]

...I meant if you wanted to talk later. About this, about anything.

I'll always listen.

[sangreine]

Oh.

Thanks. Maybe I'll feel like it later, it's possible. Right now I feel like I need to just make this as easy on everyone around me as I can.

[ Hearing that Doctor knew before they got married and didn't tell her until far later will turn her around on the issue somewhat. In that she'll want someone to scream at about how goddamn unfair that is. Right now she just assumes Doctor had every reason to believe it wouldn't be a problem until like, yesterday. ]

[at_heart]

I don't think that needs to be your biggest concern.

[sangreine]

Well, it is. It's no one else's fault that all this is happening.

I know it's not my choice either, but shouldn't I want to make this less hard if I can? I have the easy role in this mess, since I won't know what I lost.

[at_heart]

You know right now.

[ Simply. ]

The time to start discounting what you feel is when you're actually asleep, or you actually don't remember him.

In the meantime, it's not any easier to be you.

[sangreine]

There's plenty of reasons to discount it. Other people's comfort is only one of them.

Another one is that I don't have a lot of time and I don't want to spend it feeling this way. [ So clearly pretending that she's not feeling this way will help. Somehow. She's grasping at every straw. ]

[at_heart]

Sounds like we should all be trying to help you feel better, then.

[sangreine]

You know I can't be talked out of a bad mood, it takes time or adrenaline, this will probably be both. I really wish I could get drunk right now, though.

[at_heart]

Have you tried using your magic until you feel like you're about to pass out?

[ They've all got limited energy in this world, after all. It'd take some doing to purge all her touch energy, but once she got to that point... ]

You might be able to get drunk then, and even if you can't, it'd probably get you out of your head for a little bit.

[ ...He'd want to be nearby, so that he could recharge her afterwards, but. ]

[sangreine]

I haven't tried anything, but I think if I got that tired I'd just get hungry, and maybe violent. I don't trust myself anywhere near that far.

[at_heart]

[ Hums. ]

I've got one more idea — but it's totally fair to tell me you're not in the market for ideas.

[sangreine]

I'll take one more idea.

[ Since she knows he cares about her, and not just hearing himself be smart. Most people would have been told to stop. ]

[at_heart]

What if I get smashed, and you drink my blood?

[sangreine]

I'm not sure.

But the attempt alone sounds like fun.

[at_heart]

[ Heh. His smile goes more lopsided. ]

Hopefully I'm a funny drunk.

[ He is, in fact, a very flirty drunk. It'll probably be fun for her. ]
