... Thanks. I won't forgive you if you do it again, but... I don't think you will.
He did, thankfully. I like talking to him, even if he can be a jerk sometimes. How did I come up, anyway? You didn't just see who I was talking to and decide to drop a helpful hint, did you?
Well... I'd like to. I mean, I do! He called me one, so...
Yeah. I think so. I haven't really had friends before, though my coworkers might come close to it? But that's mostly because we've been working together for a long time, so I don't know if we can really call each other "friends" so much as "fated". Is that better or worse?
[ Don't Compare Them To That Shit also the only people she can contrast her budding friendships to is her coworkers this will surely not bite her in the butt ]
They feel the same, I mean. I like spending time with him the way I like spending time with them. But one's a choice and the other I'm stuck with.
[ she likes her library crew at leasr ]
March is definitely my friend (her words!), but I feel the same way too... Have you made any here?
[ well, that's also true. the sinners were only gathered together because they're being used to track down the boughs. while they have gotten closer over the past few months, they still have a long way to go.
but for ishmael, they're her only friends left. to her, that is enough. ]
...I have. It's hard for me to express it, but I like to think that they think of me as a friend too.
[ ... ishmael's a sweet girl. friendly is good enough, really. ]
You're actually pretty cute when you're not being such a porcupine, Ishmael! (｡ >艸<)"
Oh, right! Is Vergilius always so grumpy? He said you two worked in the same company, so I wanted to ask! He didn't crack a smile once when we grabbed coffee together!
No, he just tried his best to scare me by being a mean growly Color. I took him out as a bodyguard last time we went out together, but that's not gonna happen again... Do you know if he likes anything in particular?
[ she's dedicating a few hours a week to do a welfare check on him... ]
He's a tough nut to crack, huh? He didn't seem to mind the macchiato I treated him to, at least, so there's that... And he takes his coffee black otherwise.
[ in case ishmael ever wants to get him something. ]
Thanks anyway. I guess I'll just try things until they stick! Just like with you.
His glare is something for sure, but you could say I'm used to the type! A coworker of mine has a pretty mean look too. She's a big softie once you get to know her though.
Of course I'm going to downgrade you! They're the most powerful Fixers around for a reason! How the hell did she even get mixed up there in the first place?!

Do you... think of him as a friend?

I like to think that they're similar enough. Sometimes you're fated to be with a group of people no matter what the universe decides to throw at you.
[ tfw you are coworkers in every universe. wack. ]
But I wasn't talking about your coworkers. Your answer will suffice, I guess.

You've met Vergilius? Did he threaten you with death or something? He does that to us too.

She was one, but I'd still say she's just as strong as she was back then.

Wait
There's a Color working in the Library???
no subject
Former! Former, Ishmael! But I guess that doesn't matter much to you.
You can downgrade me now if you want, I won't be offended.

Nevermind, I'm taking offense. I can hold my own too, you know! I'm not the level of a Color Fixer, but I could still lay you flat on your back!
Anyway, I can't tell you how. Find out the way everyone else has to.
no subject
[ SIGHS ]
Whatever. Who was this Color? Don't tell me it's someone like the Red Mist. She's the only one I can think of who just disappeared one day.
no subject
[ its fucking killing me to call the red mist replaceable i can feel don quixote's lance at my back ]

Can't argue with that...
Anyway, is that all you want to tell me?
