[he's so bad at this...what does he ask her]

Have you...been adding to your photo wall?

[bowtography]

[ From the way March brightens, sitting up straighter and almost dislodging her sunglasses in the process, it's a good question. Just give her a few seconds to resettle the sunglasses. ]

Yeah! I was thinking it might be nice to get some more pair or group shots added in too, to appreciate the dynamics, and I unfortunately missed out on some opportunities when my arm was broken for a few good pictures, but it's really been coming along!

You wouldn't be up for more of them, right?

[ Well. She imagines that's not going to be a positive answer. ]

[immortalpoet]

...

[He's really not the type for photos, and his reluctance shows, but...]

I guess I'm curious if this is something seen by...everyone.

[bowtography]

Just the people who visit my room. Though I think it'd be nice to have a few albums too...

[ A girl only has so many walls, after all. ]

[immortalpoet]

How many people visit your room?

[does malkuth visit ur room, girl...]

[bowtography]

Mooostly Malkuth. Yesod and Yuji and Izou have dropped by, for one reason or another, but I don't think that's gonna happen all that often...

[ Of course she does, they're besties? ]

[immortalpoet]

[brief thought about malkuth seeing his face on the wall....]

[wait]

[shaking his head]

Izou? The...scruffy man?

[bowtography]

[ that's so het of him ]

Yeah? [ Is that supposed to be surprising? ]

[immortalpoet]

[please leave his het feelings alone]

[He huffs.]

...On second thought, he'd probably enjoy the attention, huh. Something about being the best assassin or whatever.

[bowtography]

... [ her eyebrows knit together, lightly. ]

You know, he's pretty sweet, beyond being really good with a blade. And I'm proud to call him my friend.

[immortalpoet]

He has an ego and a half.

[A beat.]

But I'm not saying that to dissuade you. It just surprises me a bit, is all.

[bowtography]

If it's because it doesn't seem likely, please don't tell him that. [ with a sigh. ]

I only just got him to believe he's worth friendship and that it isn't something like feeling bad for him. I genuinely like him.

[immortalpoet]

...His self esteem is worse than I thought if he's thinking about being worthy of friendship.

[DON'T BE MEAN!!!!!]

[bowtography]

... [ in her best Dead Inside Verg voice. ]

"If Malkuth doesn't want to talk to me, I'd accept it... without trying to change it... or anything..."

[ flapping a hand. ]

Izou at least reached out to me first when we weren't talking.

[immortalpoet]

[FACE THAT HAS EATEN FIVE LEMONS]

That is not the same thing and you know it.

[>:(((((]

Good for him.

[bowtography]

I just think you definitely can't criticize him on that front.

[ Serenely. ]

[immortalpoet]

I can criticize him all I want. Nothing stopping me.

[bowtography]

Hypocrite. [ sing-song. ]

Shouldn't you focus more on bonding over your common ground or something?

[immortalpoet]

Why would I want to bond with him.

[IGNORING THE HYPOCRITE ALLEGATIONS]

[bowtography]

You clearly need friends.

[ March, that's rude. ]

[immortalpoet]

I don't need them.

[FRIENDLESS4LIFE]

[bowtography]

[ This is just a flat look that says she is not actually buying that. Okay, buddy. ]

[immortalpoet]

Stop giving me that look. You don't know me.

[bowtography]

Oh, I know a few things.

[immortalpoet]

Like what. And no, you can't say what Malkuth has said.
