I need you to keep Elliot so busy he can’t go out with me. Not until these are back to normal soon.

[ WHICH HE HOPES IS SOON IF OCTOBER IS NEAR ]

[maskreant]

thank you.

sure, but is that really necessary?

[ LIKE CANT YOU BE NORMAL UNTIL THEN ]

[usurpers]

As a last resort I gave him one of my Lego Coyote Tangos and when he asked why I panicked and tried to say that it was because it takes two to tango, don’t you think it’s necessary?

[maskreant]

[ No, HE CAN'T HELP BUT SNICKER AT THAT. ]

that's really bad.

wait. so are you telling me you didn't go through your proposal? or did you have the audacity to really follow up THAT with your pixel ring?

[usurpers]

I panicked.

And no? of course not. I’d never propose after that. But I don’t want to meet up with him and get so nervous to not say anything again and tell him about how we’re drift compatible or something.

[maskreant]

[ drift. compatible. ]

i'll distract him as much as i can, but it'll seem suspicious if you hide in some cove by yourself. show up once in a while, all right?

[usurpers]

Just don’t leave me alone with him.

I feel horrible.

[maskreant]

don't be so hard on yourself, Eren.

you'll get it next time.

[usurpers]

If he asks if you think I’ve been weird, I can’t even think of a good excuse. Can you?

[maskreant]

no, because it’ll just bite you later on when you have to tell him the truth.

you can say you’re trying to figure out your alternate life and this one. it was somewhat different, right? you and Clover were a thing.

[usurpers]

We still are.

[ not . . . the same, but ]

I just hope all of this doesn’t come back to bite me anyway.

[maskreant]

it's going to come back and bite you.

it doesn't matter how solid your hind is.

[usurpers]

[ ........... ]

It’ll be fine once I have them.

[maskreant]

of course. i'll support you as much as i can.

try not to worry your head off.
