Give it time and you might see even more.

Oh, sure. No one wants to be arguing all the time, but sometimes you need to talk to out. Firmly.

[resumed]

[ ...he makes a face. ]

Firmly is a little strong...but I get it. [ why does that actually startle him a little. ]

[ballies]

Not really? Firmly stating your opinion and stance is important. Get the point across. Doesn’t mean you have to lash out.

[resumed]

[ ...hmmm. ]

How do you know when you should be firm and when you should concede to keep the peace in these things? [ curiously. he's mostly interested in her stance on this. ]

[ballies]

[ he is asking tama this. tama who yells WHAT when ryuki doesn’t give her the respect she deserves. ]

I guess it’s about not backing down when something matters to you? If you cave, it can’t have mattered that much. Or you might regret it later.

But you don’t want to burn all your bridges in the process. It’s like… knowing when to give and when to stand firm.

[ yeah considering how often nico just doesn't say fuckall to begin with, yes he is asking tama. ]

...sounds annoying to have to always figure out. But I guess that makes sense. Some things are worth fighting about and some aren't.

[ballies]

[ in her heart she is honoured. ]

That's where communication comes in. If something's bothering you, you talk about it. If they dismiss it, then you get serious.

[resumed]

[ he consider this.... ]

...solid advice as usual, Tama. I'll keep that in mind if it ever comes up.

[ballies]

[ trouble in paradise? ]

Is everything okay, Nico?

[resumed]

[ noooooo... ]

Yeah, everything's great. [ ... ] I realize all of this questioning sounded bad but it's not, I promise. I'm just...thinking.

[ballies]

Yeah, a little.

I was about to suggest you look at someone more... qualified for relationship issues than I am. I can do mental health support, but the rest is outside of my programming.

[resumed]

[ he considers how honest he feels like being. ]

Part of it is mental health, so...you know. [ he shrugs. ] But it's fine. I'm not concerned about much.

[ but he looks at their surroundings. ]

Wanna finish our tour and get out of here?

[ballies]

It's kinda another part of what I'm made for.

[ hmmmm. ]

Yeah. Sounds good to me.
