[phoenix lets him in, so!!] Ah, we meet again. Hello.

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Please ignore his attempts to steel his face so the SOUL-CRUSHING GUILT doesn't display itself on his face. He really needs to look into fronting lessons from AlcheME. ]

...From the live, I remember. Hello.

[hashtagaesthetic]

...I'll be straightforward. You fucked up, collectively. But I promised myself I wouldn't blame anyone for messing up where those games are concerned, so long as it was unintentional. So I'm not here to start anything.

[motorcycle_noises]

....It definitely wasn't our intention.

[ He takes a deep breath, lets it out slowly. ]

....Boss and Phoenix could really use some friends right now. If you're close to either of them.

[hashtagaesthetic]

I'm closer to Phoenix than Boss, I think, but I am fond of both. I'll try. [but fixes him with a look] Don't neglect yourself, though.

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Hahahahaha. ]

I'm not. I'm just concerned for them.

[hashtagaesthetic]

All right. I'll accept that much.

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Oh thank god, someone's gonna let him be. ]

...I know you're just speaking for yourself and not your whole unit. But.... it means a lot to hear that. I know we've definitely earned whatever feelings your unit and AlcheME has towards us.

[hashtagaesthetic]

[he's emotionally tired enough he'll let a lot slide] ...I'm glad I can try and take the edge off, at least.

[motorcycle_noises]

....If any of you ever need anything.... I won't speak for anyone but myself, but I'll do anything you want.

[hashtagaesthetic]

[...reaches out to place a finger against his lips.] Shh. Don't offer things so widely. "Anything" is a dangerous word.

[motorcycle_noises]

....I mean it, though. Anything.

[hashtagaesthetic]

I'm on the binding contract unit, listen to my advice!

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Sanguine just looks off to the side and doesn't say anything. ]

[hashtagaesthetic]

If circumstances were less fraught right now, I'd have you in a headlock.

[motorcycle_noises]

....It's just an offer.

[ One he 100% means, but you know. ]

[hashtagaesthetic]

It's not just anything.

[motorcycle_noises]

[ He's quiet again for a moment, his hand fidgeting at his side. ]

My apologies then, for offending you.

[ The urge to leave right the hell now is incredibly strong, but there's a stubborn part of him that refuses to run away from this. ]

[hashtagaesthetic]

Seriously? [area man can't believe this is where he's losing his temper]

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Sanguine can tell that he's just digging himself deeper any time he says anything, so he's just gonna try saying nothing. ]

[hashtagaesthetic]

[. . . fucking hell.] I appreciate that you want to make it up to us, but have some self-esteem.

[motorcycle_noises]

[ What's self-esteem, can you eat it? ]

....Sure.

[ Nope, gonna carry this forever. ]

Thanks for stopping by.

[hashtagaesthetic]

...Sure. [he's too tired for this.]

[motorcycle_noises]

[ He'll hover around for a moment, but unless it looks like Shuten still wants to talk to him, Sanguine's gonna grab his guitar and head for the elevator. ]
