Don't remind me.

[She had a sour, very obviously jealous look in her eyes and a grumble at the back of her throat.]

I'm not going to be good at handling that whole two relationship thing. I don't share well, and my other half doesn't share ever.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Maybe you should talk to him about that? Because it's just what they do, if he gets red for someone he'll go for it.

[samantha_grey]

Perils of cross-species relationships. I've tried some. It's not exactly easy to get him to take me seriously without threatening him. Of course, that is sort of the point, isn't it? heh.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Yeah but I'm just saying, it's a thing you should really talk about you know.

[If only she knew she would be having the same talks in a couple days]

[samantha_grey]

[They should so talk after the dust of that settled.]

No, I get you. He's dense enough that I need to make sure he understands. I don't want to have another "Wait, nobody told me that" thing like we had over my other side.

Do you think it's possible to be black and red for someone if you're a troll?

[tipsygnostalgia]

From what I gather, not really. It can end up really unstable.

[She doesn't know much, but hey that is what Karkat is for now]

[samantha_grey]

[See, that's the weird thing. Sam thinks Sollux is the one to go to for advice right now. She needs to learn about Karkat...

So that she horrify him.]

Yeah, they're not exactly the picture of stability, are they?

[tipsygnostalgia]

Yeah but look at it this way, they have two quadrants for that shit for a reason. Its just something they need. And I don't know much about it, but I think trying to be in one would cause trouble? Like, what if it doesn't match up? What if one's red at a time and the other's black?

[samantha_grey]

Blood and guts. I'd almost guarantee it. It's not like my demon side really makes it easy for me to have normal relationships for the same reason.

[tipsygnostalgia]

So go talk to him about it. Or I can talk to him about it if you prefer.

[samantha_grey]

No, I should do it. In fact, I will do it the next time we're together. It's not like it's something we can avoid.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Good! Let me know how it goes?

[samantha_grey]

Heh. It's not like you're not one of the people who helped give me the confidence to even think of trying this. I probably wouldn't have otherwise.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Hehe, good. I'm just that fab.

[samantha_grey]

[She chuckled and shook her head. Giving Roxy a glance, she frowned and then looked away, into the rest of the room.]

Do... you ever feel weird, having friends?

[Yes, she was capable of asking some of the strangest questions at times.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

[That sure is strange, and she looks confused.]

No...? I mean there's still times when it feels weird actually being around people, but not just for being friends with them.

[samantha_grey]

[She looked away fully, sighing. This wasn't exactly easy to admit or talk about, but while she was getting used to being around crowds and around lots of people, there were times it wasn't as easy...]

Sorry. It's just... I started picking up people I could think of as kind of allies once upon a time, but friends are weird for me. I spent most of my life with just one person, ever. We didn't have friends. It was just mom and me.

I know people are trying, but being friends is a little strange for me still.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Yeah well.. you came over here to hang out and gossip, that's what friends do. And I didnt hang out with people here either but I just.. ended up doing? I dunno, I just like being around people so I guess it isn't really much of a big deal for me.

[samantha_grey]

Yeah. I think I'm just ... a little used to being nervous around them because of other things. It's getting easier, though. I'm not used to it, but it is getting easier.

Thanks for helping.

[tipsygnostalgia]

No problem!

[samantha_grey]

mmm, I should be hitting the trail, unless you wanna just let me crash on the couch and veg for a bit. [she stretched, leaning back and chuckled. Even if she'd got a bit of a tolerance, she was not the kind of drinker Roxy was.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

I don't mind. I'm probably gonna go take a nap for a bit or something.

[samantha_grey]

Sounds like a plan. I could use the crash space. My apartment gets a bit stuffy sometimes.

[She teetered a little on her way to the couch and grinned back, kicking her shoes off.]

We really need to keep doing crap like this.

[tipsygnostalgia]

You can snooze on the couch then if you want to, I don't mind. And yeah! We can do it again for sures.

setting up horrible topics for the future!

[samantha_grey]

[flop. She was already half asleep when she said anything else, her voice sounding thankful and a little thumbs up visible from the other side of the couch.]

Y'can tell me bout bi-clops and how that's goin...
