[Voice] I Don't Need Any Comrades

[myfayevalentine]

 Fuck this place and all its fucking bullshit.

*Faye's strained voice is followed by a glass smashing hard - sounds like her bottle of rum has hit a wall. Then the feed ends*

Memoria Park.

Might as well rip that band aid off and visit, right?

Voice -> action

[nrgsvr]

Time?

[ It doesn't take long for Mayu to arrive. His eyes are a bit red. His voice is a bit hoarse, but he's willing to put the effort into talking.]

Hey.

[myfayevalentine]

*Shit. He looks really miserable. So does she, probably. Faye stands awkwardly, her arms wrapped around her in defense against all the various things she was trying not to feel at that moment. So much easier to put this on someone else*

So...this person who left. They meant a lot to you?

[nrgsvr]

[ Mayu shrugs.]

She's a good friend. I wasn't. She put more effort into socializing. She worked hard at making a life here. She's dead in her home world.

She kept me company when Marc disappeared.

[ The losses of this season weigh on him.]

Actually, so did Gren. He said he was flattered.

[ Mayu is dense at the best of times. It's worse when he's too upset to think straight.]

[myfayevalentine]

*Faye looks at him and blinks*

You knew Gren too?

*Sometimes, it was easy to forget that he had his own life here, that he knew people other than just herself, and his boyfriend*

[nrgsvr]

Not well.
We chatted a couple of times.
He set up the date.

[ It probably barely qualified as a date.]

When the comms were going weird, it sent him a private message.
He discovered BL in the library.

[myfayevalentine]

Of course, the date.

*Faye hadn't really considered that of course that would mean that Gren would be busy talking to others*

BL?

*Faye just blinks at him - apparently that isn't anything that she understands*

[nrgsvr]

It stands for Boys Love. It's comics featuring pretty men in romantic or sexual relationships. It's generally marketed towards women.

[myfayevalentine]

*Faye just burst into laughter at that* Oh wow, that definitely sounds like something Gren would enjoy.

[nrgsvr]

He managed to find one with an artist that understands anatomy.

Too bad I never got to show him Bara. The featured men are a lot more muscular.
