Aren't we in a room essentially designed for gambling?

Ugh, whatever. None of this has stopped being stupid.

[lapidarius]

It has not, in fact, stopped being stupid. You're correct.

[mylegacy]

It's still stupid and now I sort of want to throw small objects at you to see if they'll stick in your hair.

[lapidarius]

Please try not to. I work hard to take care of it.

[mylegacy]

I'm not going to. It's just that the thought occurred.

[. . .]

I have another question. But it's even stupider than everything else, so I don't know if I should ask.

[lapidarius]

...You can ask if you want to. I won't laugh, no matter how stupid it might be.

[mylegacy]

Honest?

[lapidarius]

I've never lied to you before. I don't intend to start tonight.

[mylegacy]

. . . Fine.

[uuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh]

I can't tell. I mean, if it's the same. For me. I don't know the difference, or at least I don't know the difference like this.

[@wham: whenever ur ready]

[lapidarius]

[wait, what]

Wait, what?

[mylegacy]

[SCREAMING]

Never mind.

[lapidarius]

No, I just--that wasn't even a question.

[SPEAK CLEARLY SHIZACHAN]

I'm not laughing.

[mylegacy]

It doesn't matter.

[SLOWLY . . . SINKS DOWN LOWER IN CHAIR . . . melds with it . . .]

[lapidarius]

Now you're being stupid. It matters to me.

[mylegacy]

[. . .]

[Whatever he was trying to say just now, it mostly just comes out "mgmghghgrrr".]

[lapidarius]

...A little more clearly, please.

[mylegacy]

I can't — god, I hate you.

I can't tell the difference between friends and, and more than that. I don't know what that looks like. Or is supposed to, or whatever.

[lapidarius]

...Oh.

[He still didn't laugh--just looked like that simply hadn't occurred to him.]

I don't...really know if there always is a difference.

[mylegacy]

What the fuck.

[lapidarius]

What's wrong with that?

[mylegacy]

How the hell am I supposed to know what to do!

[lapidarius]

There isn't exactly a strict set of guidelines for shit like this, Caesar! That'd be too damn easy.

[mylegacy]

What the fuck, Kakyoin, ten minutes ago you were saying to think things through and now you're saying there's no way to tell either way so fuck it?

[HE'S GOING TO GO LIVE IN THE OCEAN]

[lapidarius]

No, just--

[FACEPALM]

Look, I'm trying to--I should say there's not really any strict 'supposed to' anything with things like this, I think. Consider possible consequences and think things through, absolutely. But when it comes to the whole...'more than friends' thing itself, there aren't really specific rules on what to do or how to proceed with it.

[mylegacy]

So I'm supposed to decide whether or not to reset history past 1939 and ruin a lot of people's lives based on no evidence.
