Oh absolutely not. Maybe a little light teasing, but in a friendly way.

...I'm just incapable of not being like this, it turns out. I could tell you a sad story, but you wouldn't care to hear it and I wouldn't care to be pitied.

[ they snort and whip their tail. ]

Tell me. If it's good I might keep the eating metaphorical.

Once upon a time there was a girl who married for love to a woman who distinctly did not return the feeling, and a man who loved the girl but couldn't fathom that she didn't reciprocate, and so pretended to be her friend, instead.

Which left everyone involved rather deeply disappointed, but mostly the girl, who'd thought she was entering a bigger, brighter world. And maybe it was, but it was one that didn't care what she thought or wanted.

You know?

...Idiot. The world doesn't work like that. Love's worthless unless you're strong enough to take what you want and keep it. And the world never cares what you think or want, that's why you gotta make it.

[marsascending]

You don't think I don't know that now?

[notadrop]

Obviously you do! I'm calling past you an idiot!

[marsascending]

Well I agree, obviously!

[notadrop]

So what was the point of telling me that?

[ before waiting to answer they're leaning in to nip at her neck though ]

[marsascending]

Hh—just, well, I don't do straightforward or unironic very well anymore, for better or for worse—
