[THAT IS SO MUCH]

...DD-san...

[maxxximumeffort]

H, hey kid! Uhh, don't mind me, I just got the first person view of that and uh! How I felt! Which, I guess you can probably tell, you're a smart kid with an entire eyesight. I'm not very good at hiding my emotions.

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

[Stares at him for a good long while, taking that in, he is alive and fine and safe, he's alive because Wire saved him. He saved him?? It's good. But! Dead DD and dead Vanessa, who he doesn't know, but feels real sad about her having died? IF HE FEELS SAD HOW SAD MUST DD FEEL! IT SEEMS LIKE THINGS ARE OKAY NOW BUT THAT'S SO MUCH TO PROCESS?] Y...Yes, so, asking if you're okay would be redundant, um, do you need to sit down maybe I can get you that coffee? No wait maybe coffee is a bad idea, um, tea?

[maxxximumeffort]

H-hey, thanks. Sure. You're a great kid huh. Yeah maybe just, a nice cup of tea. Calm and zen.

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

Ah... Thank you, but, it's really no trouble, please just wait there and I'll be right back with a nice calming cup of tea. [Should he leave him alone? No, there are plenty of other people here, he's not alone at all, wow so many people can see that, maybe one less person panicking at him would be good for DD because Mori sure doesn't feel calm right now. Going to turn towards the kitchen to start making tea, and realise halfway through that he didn't ask DD how he likes his tea so he decides to just take a cup of milk and some sugar with him on a tray. After putting everything down on the tray he just stands there for a minute panicking about how he just saw his dad shoot a child only for the bullet to be taken by dad's friend. Possible boyfriend? DD had definitely been affectionate. Why was Wire trying to kill that boy when DD was trying so hard to protect him. What was even happening there? Okay minute to freak out is over kettle's boiled, scrubs his eyes, pours out the tea and picks up the tray and hurries back before the tea can get cold!] Here you are DD-san.

[maxxximumeffort]

[looks up to take it]

Thank--Hey, heey have you been crying? Aw kid. That was really fucked up, huh.

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

[OH NO, sets the tray down and spins around quickly to hide his face, are his eyes red? He should have checked a mirror!] No, no, it's nothing like that, should you really be worrying about me right now? I'm fine. Er, how do you take your tea? I didn't want to just assume.

[maxxximumeffort]

I'm okay! Yes, I can worry! -- shit, you're probably worried about Wire, right? Look, he was just doing that to protect his family, it was a whole... time travel bullshit thing where the fire kid grew up to be a crazy supervillain it's dumb, anyway the important thing is he's a good guy. He's not gonna hurt you or anything. You saw how cool he was!

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

[This is escalating. Taking deep breaths - just like Wire taught him when they arrived! Ha. Okay. In, then out. Turning back around to face DD and sitting down too.] I'm not worried that Wire-san would hurt me. I know he wouldn't. Rather, to do something like that... he must have been desperate. But, even if that boy was going to be a villain in the future... he was just a child there. And, you helped him, didn't you? There was - that thing, with the bear? It sounded like you saved him from that fate. Both of them.

[maxxximumeffort]

[D takes the tea and just starts pouring sugar into it]

Yeah.

That fuck who got gag-splattered is the guy who hurt the kid. Sometimes the right thing to do can't be done by nice, good people.

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

[He can't exactly say DD is a good person after he just saw him laugh his head off at a guy getting hit by a car, however evil that person was, but...] That was the right thing...? People like that are awful. I can't say what happened was right... But if he was hurting children, he needed to be stopped. I don't know about 'good', but you've been nothing but nice so far DD-san.

[maxxximumeffort]

[fidgets with his tea.]

Yeah. Well. I like kids.

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

AlcheME is lucky to have you.

[maxxximumeffort]

Yeesh. Glad you're on Wire's team.

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

[Chuckles lightly] Oh, sorry, was that too sincere? Should I be mocking you for calling us kids like an old man instead?

[maxxximumeffort]

Hurtful!! Please do that to him all the time though.

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

I could never be so rude to Wire-san.

[maxxximumeffort]

Hah. He uh. Has he um said anything about me?

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

Wire-san isn't likely to talk to us about his heartfelt feelings so I'm afraid I don't have any good gossip for you. He was grateful that you helped my teammates when they were injured. And when we were training, he seemed concerned that your instinct wasn't to avoid injury but to run towards it.

I think he likes you.

[maxxximumeffort]

[snorts.]

Yeah, I like him too. How about you?

[ferociousfuckingnerd]

[Nods]

I think we're lucky to have him. He can be a bit... grim, sometimes, but that balances out some of our, ah, overly enthusiastic members. He's trying very hard to take care of us.
