[rupert is legitimately so nice to her. she isn't sure how to deal.


but she smiles.]

Thanks, Rupert.

[heartlands]

[there's a small laugh, amused, though he's still not feeling lighthearted.]

You don't have to thank me when I'm just acknowledging that you did something cool. But - you're welcome.

[wtfox]

Well, I am pretty cool!

[she giggles]

...but no, I just mean... in general. You're really nice to me even though I was kinda, uh... you know...

[rude


when he got here.]

[heartlands]

[meanwhile, he thinks her anger was totally valid, so it's clear from both his expression and his emotions that he isn't sure what she's getting at.]

You were kinda...?

[wtfox]

...not nice.

[...]

Not even just to you. I was kind of mean to the bear when I first got here, too. So it's just... you know. Even though I haven't been as nice as I was before we both ended up here, it's... kind of you to keep treating me the way you always have.

[heartlands]

[there's a beat, before he softens.]

...Of course I'm not going to blame you for being angry and unhappy. I mean - not that I'm saying we should be taking it out on each other, but... It's like you said. This entire situation is incredibly messed up. It's harder to be nice when you're dealing with things like that, right? But the fact that you realize it and you're trying to change it... That's really good of you, too.

[she fiddles with her necklace as he talks.]

...thanks.

[wow this is enough emotional vulnerability for one day though she's going to back off out of the emotionshare range. she's still here! she just has to raise her voice a little to talk.]

So. Um. I guess we should get ready to watch what happens tomorrow? ...and maybe we should discuss with everyone what we want to put on the marquee.
