[bratherine]

( lies. )

maybe i'll do some target practice

( what is resting )

[mindthebass]

am i losing my touch?

(little shit.)

[bratherine]

mmm
i'm still thinking abt it
couldn't have been that bad

[mindthebass]

share with the class, kate

[bratherine]

you sound good when you let go.

[mindthebass]

so do you. pretty sure you sound better.

[bratherine]

( S I R )

not to me

[mindthebass]

don't know what u're missing

[bratherine]

( doesn't that hold true on both sides? )

i'm good
bein on the receiving end isn't so bad either

[mindthebass]

i'm very charming, i'm aware

[bratherine]

( he really typed that with his own two hands. )

that so?
prove it

( dangerous ground, Katherine. )

[mindthebass]

kate you fuck me

i think that proves it.

[bratherine]

( :| )

don't have to be charming to fuck

( it HELPS, but you don't have to be. )

[mindthebass]

true. if my bandmate can do it anyone can

( UNNECESSARY DRIVE-BY )

[bratherine]

( wELP. )

what're they like?

( she doesn't know which bandmate this is! how is she supposed to appreciate the drag without context!!! )

[mindthebass]

... wimp-y. 🤷

there are four of us, you know. yassan, the bald one, nobu, the easily-manipulated wimp, nana-san, the feral cat, and me, the cutest one.

[bratherine]

( is there really much competition for cuteness when you're describing your bandmates as "bald", "easily manipulated" and "feral cat"? )

what
you're the team puppy?

[mindthebass]

... no. that's hachi. the... one you saw that i wanted to go to at the restaurant.

you ever heard of hachiko?

[bratherine]

( Oh. Yeah... She remembers. Might be best to let that memory lie out of conversation for the time being, though. )

no.

[mindthebass]

hachiko was a dog whose owner died and he waited at the station every day for him to come back.

nana and hachi were roommates. both are named nana, so we started calling her hachi... but she's really like a puppy... she cooked for us and threw parties and came to the studio and everything to support us.

like the loyal hachiko.

[bratherine]

( Oh.

It wasn't hard to miss the adoration in how Shin reacted even to his own memory of her flickering to life, but the explanation is both cute and heartwrenching.

She sounds like a good person. Kate's glad Shin had that, honestly. )

she sounds nice

what other animals are cute, then...

( she thinks elephants are cute but societally, that term is not. how rude. )

are you the hamster?

( ... is. that. better... )

[mindthebass]

........ i was called a viper actually

[bratherine]

( hm. )

think some kind of bird suits you better.
