[chrysanths]

I'm not really... well-versed in fashion.

[ fuckin virche clothes

Would you believe there's official art for the virche cast in sunglasses? It was recent, apparently. Here it is because I can't imagine him wearing them without my mind collapsing

So he picks the one similar to the one in the picture and tries it on. ]

[florescences]

[ the energy of this art is so funny. i support all these boys. ]

You're doing well enough. This pair suits you much better. Keep those.

It's about what makes you feel confident. Come on.

[ she offers him a hand. hold her hand, adolphe. ]

[chrysanths]

[ right?? Mathis is so frowny that it's funny

He has a strong urge to take them off, but keeps them on and eventually takes her hand. Handholding in my christian game?? He's trying not to think about anything. ]

Where are we going?

[florescences]

[ handholding in this christian game!! scandalous ]

To the beach. I thought it'd be nice to walk along the shore.

[chrysanths]

[ He seems a little hesitant, but. ]

... Alright. Let's go then.

[ He hopes she won't say anything that he doesn't want to answer, so he asks a question: ]

Do you like that sort of thing?

[florescences]

[ she's a little surprised that he's the one who starts to ask questions, but she's not unhappy about it. ]

Yeah. I think it's nice to take in beautiful sights with someone you like.

[chrysanths]

Because there's someone to share it with?

[ Hm... ]

[florescences]

Things are always better when experienced with someone. At least, for me, that's the case.

[chrysanths]

... We can agree to disagree.

[ gloomy ass motherfucker ]

[florescences]

Oh, I don't expect everyone to agree with me. I like you the way you are.

[ gloomy or otherwise. ]

[chrysanths]

As long as you understand.

[ THOUGH... ]

Why can you say that with such a straight face? It just comes off as insincere when you barely know the person.

[florescences]

Hm? Is that how you see me? [ she looks a little put out for a second, but it's not that serious. ] All I'm doing is saying what's on my mind. I don't know how to be anything other than myself.

[chrysanths]

... I've never met anyone like you.

[ It's not a compliment............ it's also because he doesn't know how to handle her. ]

[florescences]

I've been told that a lot. [ hehe ] Doesn't it make you want to learn more about me?

[chrysanths]

[ He looks a little doubtful. I'm sorry, Elysia... Adolphe is just like this. ]

Maybe to better understand you, but I feel like I never will.

[florescences]

[ that's fine. some of the people she calls friends say and do worse. ]

I don't think I'm that hard to understand, though? It just takes a little time.

[chrysanths]

Of course you'd say that. It's you, after all. You've been with yourself the longest.

[florescences]

It's not like you understand everything about yourself from the beginning.... But everything I say is what I think, so maybe you can come to understand me eventually.

[chrysanths]

[ He looks at Elysia, partially resigned. ]

... If you say so, then I might. Maybe.

[ Then he dies at w1. ]

[florescences]

[ we still have many weeks more for people to die, but she doesn't know this yet. ]

It would mean a lot to me, if you tried, but... that's something I won't push for you to do.

[chrysanths]

Some people would say that pushing them to act is the best way, because it wouldn't happen otherwise.

[ Hm. ]

No expectations, huh.

[florescences]

I'd try to push you to do other things. It's not as important for you to understand all of me.

[ she can prioritize when they only have eight weeks (less because adolphe dies AGAIN) ]

[chrysanths]

... Then for now, this is fine.

[ He's satisfied. Adolphe can't hate Elysia's efforts despite everything like his self-doubt gnawing the core of his existence. ]
