I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS

You are being legit unfair right now

[ must not blurt out about his lucky ass getting two girlfriends smooches... ]

[pactmarshal]

I'm sorry Mei. You should listen to Beat.

I think you're a bit young. You're like a little sister to me.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Wait, are you the one he's trying to get a date for?

He should have just SAID THAT!

[ Though she is getting a tad annoyed at being everyone's Little Sister and not anyone's Love Interest... ]

[stillarhino]

yeah what nightlight said yo
look imma help you get someone else that aint him

[Can he though?]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Really? Are you sure?

[ This will end well. ]

[stillarhino]

yeah im sure!
we can do this again but for you or i dunno
find someone in the festival or something

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ the "i dunno" and "or something" doesn't exactly inspire confidence. ]

Forget it. I'm clearly not good enough for some people.

[stillarhino]

whoa whoa hold up red
whered all that come from?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

How did you think I was going to react when you wrote this? You know I want a boyfriend! But everyone sees me a little sister, or just a kid.

[stillarhino]

[Uuuh... he didn't? Oops.]

dunno how to break this to ya red
but you is a kid aint ya?

[Double oops.]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ oh, bro. ]

SO ARE YOU!

And I don't mean it in a 'i know you are but what am i' but YOU ARE ALSO A KID

[stillarhino]

huh whatchu talking about?
i aint a kid no more!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Besides, I seem to recall SOMEONE asking me for advice about dating and girls and kisses?

[stillarhino]

just because i dont know much about that sort of thing dont mean im still a kid yo

[pactmarshal]

I am. I don't know why he did not.

That was rude of him. He owes you an apology.

[ ARE YOU READING THIS, BEAT? ]

[stillarhino]

[HE IS.]

wait i gotta say sorry for what now?

[pactmarshal]

You could have elaborated a bit instead of giving her nothing but "no."

[stillarhino]

i just didnt wanna get her hopes up man
but guess yous right

[pactmarshal]

I'm glad you understand.

Be kind to her.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

He absolutely does! He knows how much I want a boyfreind!

[pactmarshal]

[ Ohhh... Poor thing. Relatable. ]

Then that was even more uncalled-for. I'll talk to him.

Regardless, I have faith in you, Mei. You'll find someone yet.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

I hope so. I don't want to be everyone's Little Sister.

[pactmarshal]

I know how you feel, I genuinely do. I sympathize, Mei.

[ Because Mother knows what being "everyone's big brother" his whole life has done to him. ]

But you have a long life ahead of you yet. People arrive here with surprising frequency. I would not be surprised if you found someone before long.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Well, that's true and we should be getting some newbies soon. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on the meat market.

[pactmarshal]

[ the meat market............ ]

I wish you the best of luck, Mei. If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm always here.
