Who: You!
Where: Hotel!
When: Day 105!

[ Sure, you may be incapable of lying and also incapable of being emotionally honest and ALSO be completely amnesiac, but fanmail waits! For no one!

As usual, the lobby is flooded, preventing you from leaving or entering the hotel without wading through a bunch of boxes and mountains of cards. But - OWO? WHAT'S THIS?

Your phone buzzes, too! ]

Producers: LOL you guys that was SOOOOOOO BAD

[ Wait. That message is gone. What? ]

Producers: Congratulations, idols! You got to the next goal with your stunning performance! Wow, you're doing so great!
Producers: For 500,000 points, you can get something - or someplace! - nice. Maybe you want a spa? A cute cafe? Whatever it is, it'll be shared by your community, isn't that nice? And you get to choose what it is, too!
Producers: Suggest a location here, and we'll send an official poll sometime soon. You know how it goes!
Producers: Or do you?

[ Hm!

Submit #poll suggestions here! ]

Too much for you to handle in reality?

Hell no. I'm just kind of a taken man right now.

["kind of"]

... Well, well, well. Congratulations.

But I gotta ask what "kind of" is supposed to mean here.

[IT MEANS THAT MARS IS STILL TOO GUNSHY TO BE BLUNT ABOUT IT EVEN THO IT'S NOT REALLY "KIND OF" AT ALL]

It means "none of your business," that's what it means.

[puffs up a little!]

You made it my business when you used it to turn me down! Hey, hey, hey, what's it mean? On a scale of casual makeouts to ring exchanges, how serious are we talking here?

[OH NO HE'S TURNING RED and shoving a hand into Man Eater's face]

W-- we just started, come on! Stop asking questions!

[ he just cackles at the hand in his face. by "stop asking questions," Mars clearly meant "ask more questions," right? ]

So pure! Have you kissed? You've at least kissed, right?

[asking Mars these questions while he is under a CANNOT LIE effect is a MISTAKE]

We've done a lot more than kiss, we've had ssse--

[CLAMPS A HAND OVER HIS MOUTH]

[AND KICKS AT MAN EATER'S SHINS]

[ HOPS BACK OUTTA THE WAY ]

Ohhh? Oh! Gyahahaha! Wow, you move fast.

Hey, shut up! Asking me these questions when I can't lie is cheating!

Hn...? Not my fault you didn't tell me that little detail until now. But that's good to know.

[UGH]

Well, now you know, and you can stop being nosy. You don't see me asking questions about who you're kissing.

I'm not nearly as shy as you.

[ and a little more seriously: ]

Are you really doing the whole "exclusive" shtick, though? You've got to be the only one in Tokyo-F.

[. . . mrrrrrgh. . .]

Yeah. I know.

[shoves his hands into his pockets, fumbling for a cigarette]

But I'm shit at feelings, I'm shit at dating, and I'm probably a shitty boyfriend, so it's probably better if I limit my shitty self until I become less shitty? Or something.

[. . .]

I can barely juggle one, how the fuck do you expect me to juggle like, five.

[incidentally the number of serious crushes he has]

Edited 2019-04-17 02:23 (UTC)

... Aren't you making it more complicated than it needs to be? Not like messing around has to have anything to do with dating. Or feelings, for that matter.

[ do not ask what his actual track record for messing around without feelings is. ]

Yeah? And how good are you at messing around without feelings?

[TOO LATE HE'S ASKING]

[ that gets his feathers ruffled instantly, glaring and looking somewhere between agitated and offended. bullseye, perhaps? ]

Bold of you to assume I have feelings.

[JUST]

[FUCKING]

[CRACKS UP]

Yeah, right! How many times have I used that one myself?!

Fuck off! Don't compare me to a bleeding heart like you!

I'm not a bleeding heart, I just have feelings! They're stupid feelings and I hate them and I like to pretend I don't, but guess what, they're there!

[THROWS HIS HANDS INTO THE AIR]

Augh, this stupid fucking can't lie shit is so dumb!

[ his only initial response is a derisive snort. but after a beat: ]

... Why? You have the freedom to feel whatever you want.

[barks out a laugh at that]

. . . you don't even know the half of it.

[ ... ]

What's that supposed to mean?

[at that, he just shrugs]

I don't want to talk about my tragic backstory, it's stupid and it sucks and I don't even fully understand all of it myself.

[ clicks his tongue ]

Don't allude to something and then be like "oh wait, nevermind" the next second. You tease.
