[ducked]

((From here!))

Soo...does this mean we're friends now?

[ Could she be friends with someone like him? ]

[soheartless]

Friends? [He pauses as if considering the subject.]

Yes. We could be friends, Duck. We should be.

[ducked]

Really? You'd be okay with that?

[soheartless]

Yes. I would like that. I shouldn't be... upset with that, should I?

[ducked]

Oh - n-no, I don't think so! I mean, unless you don't like me or something...

[soheartless]

I like you.

[untrueheart]

[from here where there is in fact a tag.]

"Okay"? What did she say to you?

[soheartless]

[He takes a moment of reflection to recall.]

She said... that I'd been hurt.

[untrueheart]

[Well yes. One would hope she said that.]

Will it...keep you from dancing?

[soheartless]

Not for long.

I shouldn't practice today.

[untrueheart]

That's too bad. And so close to the recital.

[Rue is not normally so bold with older boys she actually likes, but maybe just this once...] What about...the homecoming dance?

1/3

[soheartless]

The recital. Yes. I will have to make up for the practice I miss...

[But he blinks as he considers her words.]

The... homecoming dance?

[soheartless]

The... homecoming dance...

[soheartless]

I don't know what that is.

[zeropoints]

[From here! Rainbow ponies day.]

Well, maybe you should? Sounds like you think about her a lot? [How much is a lot in this case...???? He doesn't know.] Which is saying something.

[He means that as a compliment. To Rue, perhaps.]

[soheartless]

Okay.

[zeropoints]

You do want to, don't you?

[soheartless]

I want to dance with her. [He responds quickly, without thinking.]

[zeropoints]

[Well, he supposes that's as close to "I like her" as it gets for Mytho.]

Sure, great. Because Homecoming is a dance and all that. And that's what you do at dances.

[He sighs, thinking longingly of his crush.]

I wish I could go with Rhyme...

[imatreenow]

[From here.

Square? Is that seriously the best they can come up with? Everyone here is so stupid...] Just report all of them, then. They all deserve to get in trouble anyway.

[soheartless]

Is that... what I should do? [He frowns and holds his books closer, making a few uncertain glances around.]

But... [He lets the pause hang for a moment.] I'm not sure who did it. And no one was hurt.

[imatreenow]

Doesn't it bother you? Do you like getting harassed all the time?

[soheartless]

I don't like it. [That much is true. He stares down at the floor.]

But it only bothers me if it hurts. I don't... want trouble.

[imatreenow]

They asked for trouble by starting this.

I used to get bullied all the time too...then I started standing up for myself, and they hardly mess with me at all anymore. [Although he suspects that might have something to do with him finally hitting his growth spurt not too long ago... He also suspects there's plenty of talk behind his back.]
