[Oh, that's far more sobering than she expected and she's quiet for the longest moment. Luckily the light snoring of Lilith in the background keeps it from being totally silent.]
And I get that, I really do. But I wouldn't have gone this far if I knew it wasn't gonna work out. Like, yeah, I'm going to marry her but that doesn't mean I didn't slam head first into feelings here, too. Hell, if it's legal I'd shove a ring on you both in time.
Just calm down, I know this is going to work. I know what she likes and this is going to be a great match for all of us, 'kay?
[God, she's already feeling a bit stupid for having such a cascade emotional bullshit flow out of her like that. She must sound so dumb, but she can't help it. She's been stewing on a lot for a while with no idea how to even deal.
In a way, she's coped with a ton by throwing herself into work and trying not to think about Anna, but now she's getting to a point where she has to face that. It's rough.]
Sorry... I didn't mean to go off like that, I just... have a lot on my mind sometimes. I'm glad you have so much faith in this, even if I'm paranoid as fuck.
[Hey, she's been there. She's been through way too much shit in regards to relationships to not get where she's coming from.]
Don't gotta apologize, sometimes you need to get it out and I get it. When I got a feeling in my gut, it's never been wrong, only reason I'm so sure about this.
But seriously, I do adore you outside of your looks and stuff, you know that, right? This ain't just some booty call sitch.
[Chloe thwumps back onto her pillow, letting the gear rest next to her head as she stares up at the ceiling. Man, who knew expressing feelings could both be so stressful, liberating and embarrassing all at once. Not to mention exhausting.
Chloe lets out a groan when Jolyne says that last part, whacking the gear again.]
Shut up, I know that. I mean, you obviously have to like me a little if I'm getting ass o'clock tits, right?
...Anyway. Thanks. For real. If I had to deal with me, I'd probably be halfway to Lavender town with how hard I'd go ghost, but somehow you're sticking around. Even when I vomit all over you emotionally.
[A huuuuuge fucking mood, emotions are weird and she still struggles with them.
But, god, she can't help but laugh a bit.]
Ass o'clock tits are a sign of affection, yeah~
And you shhhh, I've done the same shit so I totally get it. Like, it's kinda nice to have someone who gets that shit. Carly's a saint but it ain't the same, if that makes sense?
[Chloe laughs when Jolyne does, feeling that weight lift off even more. Jolyne obviously isn't holding it against her, so why should she dwell on it for too long? She can save that for her next bong rip, right now she'll let herself relax.]
Mmm, yeah. I get that. Anna was... well, I mean she was hella ferocious, but she didn't have a bad bone in her whole body. I'm still not convinced she wasn't actually made of cake.
Mm. She sounds like a hell of a person. [Makes sense why she would have been attached. But this place had a habit of taking people, she knew that.]
It's funny, Carly is super sweet if doesn't come off a little dense. But smart as hell and can hold her own if needed. Taught her to punch shit properly and she's kinda terrifying now, honestly. [She sounds far too fond, oops.]
[Chloe finds herself smiling as Jolyne describes Carly and honestly, she can't help but compare and think how the two of them sound a lot alike. Not in a creepy replacement way, but someone Chloe could genuinely vibe with.]
If you don't teach your girlfriend how to punch properly, are you even a good fuckin' girlfriend?
