Error Pov: I hesitate from shock at his sudden sincerity. After a second, I finally respond awkwardly. "yea.." I say to ink, who looked just as uncomfortable as I did.
We sit in silence before ink speaks up again. "Umm.. so... the soup..?"
"Oh. Yea. Sorry." I say. Looking at the tray and taking it, setting it in my lap. "Thanks" I say.
"No problem"
"......"
"......"
"......"
"Do you need a napkin orrr.. anything..?"
"A spoon would be nice.."
"Oh-.."
"Yea...."
"Yea, uhhh.. I'll go get that. I'll be right back."
"Yeah.. thanks.."
MY GOD THIS IS SO AWKWARD
UGHHHHHHHHHH
i just kinda sit their as i watch him leave to go get a spoon for my soup. What was i doing!? I felt so embarrassed and my face felt so hot and just- AHHHHHHHH
what do I even say to him!? How do I make small talk in a situation like this!?
"Hey so I know I tried to kill you and all but thanks for the soup that I'm probably not gonna like and thanks for helping me even though I'm gonna have to off you by the end of the month! Hows your day been besides fishing me out of a flood that destroyed my home!"
.....
I DONT HAVE A HOME!
I'm gonna have to stay with blue, or even worse, HERE. IN THE CASTLE. WITH MY TARGET.
what then!?
If I kill him where would I go?
Back to the guest room!? and then what!? just say I dont know what happened the next day!?
And now I have this nightmare stuff to figure out, and I dont have time!
WHAT DO I DO!?
"Hey! I'm back with the spoon."
"S###!!"
"..."
"WH- wait- no- umm- that's not-"
I look at him.
...
We kinda just look at eachother in silence for a second before I just sigh and bury my head in my hands. My face felt like it was on fire..
"I'm sorry.. I just got a lot on my mind recently.. I didnt mean to yell at you like that.."
Theirs a long silence before I feel ink sit next to me. He speaks calmly and sounded very understanding.
"Its alright. I've had a lot on my mind lately as well.. it probably felt good to get it out huh..?"
".....Yeah..
...it kinda did."
"You can do it again if youd like. Get all your frustration out."
"Huh..? Just like.. scream..?"
"Yeah! Why not..?"
"Well.. I mean.. isnt that kinda just, I dont know, disrespectful to everyone else here? People could be trying to sleep- or they could just be minding their own business. I wouldnt want to bother them with me just screaming at the top of my lungs."
"What lungs?"
"...
..Shut up.."
"Hehehe"
