[tilts her head slightly]

...Thank you. I like your scales too.

My-- what?

[ reaches up to touch her face and finds some of the stray scales, feeling along them. ]

... ? What do they look like?

Black and shiny. They look pretty on your skin.

[ ... flushes again, huddling down against the bed and burying her face against her arms. Just a little. ]

... thanks. I like the colors on yours.

[lies her head down on a pillow so she can look at her from a lower angle.]

Are you alright?

-- you're naked and I'm in bed with you??

[ babbles it before she can stop herself, brow knit but cheeks still dark. ]

I mean, it's fine and all, I can get over it, I'm just like. I dunno. I still have one eye at least.

Oh.

[she blinks]

I didn't know you... thought of me like that.

I don't! I'm just. Y'know.

Not blind.

...I don't know. It's not really like that for me, I don't think...

No? ... not even if they're super cute?

Not really...? I mean, I can tell when people look good, but I'm not really attracted to them unless... they're like that for me...?

[Hesitant at the end, since that doesn't really explain anything.]

Or... maybe I just can't tell when I'm attracted to someone until I really, really am.

Could be something like that... I mean, it's not like-- I want to date you or nothin' like that, it's not that kind of feeling. You're just. Pretty.

N-No, I get it. Just, I don't know if I have a difference between those feelings. Or if I can tell the difference.

It's not that I don't think you're pretty, but...

But you wouldn't take me to the bone zone?

[ CLEARLY TRYING TO LIGHTEN THE MOOD HERE, ]

[amused huff]

That's one way to put it.

I figured? That's why it was kinda awkward, I guess.

... specially cuz I don't think this is something you'd normally be okay with doing with me.

[ the. naked in the same bed thing. ]

[tilts her head slightly]

Well, there isn't really any reason to do it normally, but it's not like I'm uncomfortable with it. I mean, not particularly more uncomfortable than I already am when I have clothes, because I'm not used to this kind of thing. I can see how it would be awkward, though.

Didn't you have a thing with-- like, sleeping in the same bed as people you're not dating...?

Ah.

[blinks]

No—well, yes, but that was a Joker thing. When we decided on being exclusive, he asked if just sleeping in the same bed with other people was allowed, and he didn't like it when I told him to use his judgment on whether it was actually platonic or not, so I just said no. Probably I should have taken that as a bad sign.

Ahh, okay.

... so this is totally fine now? Even if we're naked.

[ well. she's not, but, you know.

a brief pause before she continues; ]

Did I interrupt something?
