shirt

wait why are you even asking me

wasn't pyrrha with you

[ guess who missed the exact Moment-- ]

text

[beaconed]

[ Pyrrha.

There’s a long delay between her and his next reply. Well, long for Jaune-standards, so roughly about four minutes as he’s freaking out all on his own in the toilet stall. Ok, damn it, he’ll bite the bullet. ]

yang if you had a guy friend and he asked you out, would you date them
y/n??

[flaredo]

[ ... You know what, this is better than shirts. Speaking of a lack of shirts-- ]

depends on the guy friend
Naoki was a guy friend and I fell for him just fine

Re: text

[beaconed]

[beaconed]

[ The next time you see Jaune in person, you'll notice a cracked screen on his Cerevice because he fucking dropped it before replying. ]

text

[flaredo]

RIGHT NOW

text

[beaconed]

how do I even begin
it all happened so fast
one moment im confessing her something ive been meaning to and the next my head just started moving closer
you know what I mean!!!1
im such an idiot yang I cant even be a good friend without messing it up
what was I thinking why can't I just die in this toilet help me :(((

text

[flaredo]

for starters drowning in the toilet?
don't be in such a flush

[ YANG NO. ]

and second
I don't think she minded

Re: text

[beaconed]

i don't think she even knows what almost happened

besides you saw how upset she looked when you said we make a great couple
she has every reason to mind, yang!!!'

text

[flaredo]

she was upset because YOU LAUGHED
ugh I'm not walking you through this
go talk to her
AND LISTEN

text

[beaconed]

cant I just go back to pretending everything is the same

text

[flaredo]

is that what you want?
and do you think Pyrrha deserves that?

Re: text

[beaconed]

no, she doesn't.

[ She doesn’t deserve him, that’s the root of the whole issue. After all, what has he got to offer to someone who already has got so much going for her? He had no problems being friends and partners with a celebrity, but a romantic interest? The thought never crossed his mind that they could be a thing, and to be fair to Jaune, Pyrrha never treated him as anything more than a friend, despite her actual feelings. They're both bad as each other, truthfully. ]

hey did you mean it btw...
about being a great couple

text

[flaredo]

I wouldn't have said it if I didn't mean it
that's not my style

text

[beaconed]

[ That gets a smile out of him, because encouraging Jaune goes a long a way. Not that Yang would ever know, because it's not long until he texts again. He should really leave this stall and rejoin the party soon. ]

thanks yang
can i ask you one more question
