[ he did say he'd be hers, even if it's just for today.
because in general, he really isn't that nice either. the dead claiming that he was biased wasn't exactly wrong in a sense; they were just wrong in what exactly he was being biased about. but he does prioritize himself over others for many things, and that showed today in the worst way.
does he regret it? yes. but he was still able to do it. ]
I guess so. It just means whatever sweetness I dispense is all that much sweeter.
[ She gives special treatment, and she doesn't care about fairness.
They're both horribly selfish people, but Medb doesn't see that as a detriment. Even if other people view selfishness as a flaw, she doesn't. It's a good driving force. ]
I won't tell you to look me up, but don't say I never tried to warn you, okay?
but he has been in the indulgence center long enough at this point that some things are skewed, and even then, most of his hatred for certain people here came from a combination of them being terrible but also really annoying about it. takeru does not have the patience for that.
but his hand goes to rest against her jawline, his thumb moving in a slow circle against her skin. ]
I can't say I'll understand, or like it all, but I don't think we'll ever like all the decisions that people make.
[ She closes her eyes briefly at the touch and smiles.
It's a little hard to believe he'll be fine with it when she knows it's easier for people to accept certain parts of her and not every part. She doesn't know anyone who has, and she doesn't expect him to be that person either.
But it's nice to think he could be fine with it. ]
It'd be boring if we did. We're too decisive, too opinionated as people, but I'll believe you tonight.
[ Since tonight is all she wants. She doesn't expect anything after tomorrow, if everything goes well. ]
Even if tomorrow goes sideways, I'll believe that much.
[ honestly, even if everything goes well, he still has a foot out the door for everything. he can't even confidently promise mineo that he'll stay for him. that, more than anything, is why he can't promise anyone more than just a day. ]
That's all I can ask for.
[ there's a pause, and he'll press a kiss to her cheek, short and soft. ]
[ i am reading your psl with dana btw very good food

She can't really disagree. No matter what her feelings are for anyone here, she's never considered anything past the time that they're here. For as greedy and possessive as she can be, there are things she can let go of. Even with Childe, it was only meant to be temporary.
She presses a return kiss to the corner of his lips. ]
Tell me, did I manage to woo you?
[ Her tone is light, playful, a callback to one of their first conversations. ]
