Don&#x27;t think my heart is just a hard drive.

how wonderful… don tigre will be thrilled…

"E-Err..I should really hand it over soon, when can I? I don't want to be tempted to go gambling."

"It took forever but..yeesh..I finally got the money in full."

What did you just call me?

"S-Sw-sweetheart..?"

affection doesn’t pay the bills… and i won’t be conned by such a simple pet name…

"I-I'm not attempting to con you, красивый. It was nothing but a slip of the tongue, a-ahaha."

What did you just call me?

"S-Sw-sweetheart..?"

[Not a what? It didn’t seen worth pressing on at the moment, but if wy continued slipping in other languages like that…]

really… no one here cares why you’re in debt… as long as we get our money, that’s all there is to it… that’s why tender lender is so beneficial… to gamblers and the like, who don’t want to explain themselves…

[Vi examined wire face for a second, moving vios thumb to portray where the crumbs were.]

you do.

"Ah, well..I do appreciate all tender lender has done, so..uh..I promise I'll be paying you back really shortly."

Wy'd wipe at wire face, grimacing a bit as wy did.

"Did I get it all?"

[Interesting? “Viola”? At this point, wy was definitely bluffing, but… as usual, Viola convinced viorself that that wasn’t the case, and even managed to put a smile on vios face, as vio cut into the cake, preparing to bite into it.]

no… i suppose i don’t.

[Vi thought on that for a moment, chewing vios cake absentmindedly, before coming up with another response.]

however… don’t let any of this slip to don tigre… he’ll be unhappy with me…. and that might just reflect in my behavior.

[Put the death threats on hold for a minute there, wy’s being nice to you. Regardless, though, it’s true - Don Tigre didn’t anger very easily, but he would definitely frown on befriending someone deep into debt with them. And Viola was mean on a good day.]

"I won't. Promise. I'm not a болтун. He scares me too much for me to even tell him why I'm in debt."

Wy'd take a bite of wire cake, and another sip of the coffee, accidentally getting quite a bit of crumbs on wire face and moving to wipe them off, getting a good majority off.

"..Do I have anything on my face, Вио? A-Ah--sorry, I mean, Viola."

Do it right back to him and let that be that

You need to let him know that his game is whack

And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back"

Wy'd pause and put wire face in wire hands.

"...I can like Christina Aguilera, okay. Don't judge me."

[That at least was good. Vi wouldn’t mention it, but if wy was almost able to pay off wire loan, perhaps this little “date” could tempt vio to put off raising wire interest for a while…

And then wy asked about vio, and that really threw vio off-guard. Talking about things that weren’t death in general was tough for vio, much less coming up with a not-too-revealing story on the spot. Hastily vio took a sip of milk, stalling the extra couple of seconds it took to think of a reply.]

there’s not much to know… before tender lender, i only stayed with my grandfather…. he feared me going into the outside world without him…

"I understand. Kind of. Well, I mean, my grandpa has always been protective. He pretty much raised me."

Wy'd take a tentative sip of coffee before continuing to speak.

"You seem really interesting, Viola--err..you don't mind me just calling you Viola, right?"

Send a "♪" for the Muse to sing part of a song the Mun has recently listened to.

[Wy’d taken a bite. A big one, at that, and Viola took that as vios signal that it was safe, putting down vios milk in favor of actually trying it.

If it wasn’t as good as other coffee cake, vi was extremely eager to try that other, going in quickly for another bite. God, that was good… If vios delicate appearance didn’t matter so much to vio, vi’d be scarfing it down. Instead, vi paced viorself, listening to wir ramble. Wy was a gambler? That definitely explained the debt, vi figured, taking another bite of cake. Why vi’d doubted this cake vi didn’t know - Glen was clearly too softhearted to poison anyone.

Listening to wire tale, Viola almost felt sorry for wir. Almost. The comment slipped out before vi could stop viorself.]

if your luck is so bad that you gambled your way into trouble… you’ll see no different results if you try to gamble your way out…

[Yeah, yeah, save the words of wisdom for yourself, know-it-all.

Vi took another bite of cake after making that declaration. It was really all vi had to say on the matter - vi was more a fan of butterflies and snakes than horses.]

"I know. I'm on the verge of being able to pay you guys back. I got it through honest means, I just..I've always had the worst luck with gambling, but it's always been an addiction I could never get rid of. My dad had a bit of a gambling streak himself. Maybe it's genetic."

Wy would take another bite of the cake, chewing and swallowing.

"I used to have a horse, myself. She was the sweetest thing." Wy mused aloud, poking his cake with his fork.

"Named her Sugarbear--anyway, what about you? I don't know a thing about you."

[Of course wy hadn’t tested the cake. Wy would have… if wy wanted to clear up any suspicion about it being poisoned. Either wy was a fool that underestimated Viola, or it seriously hadn’t occurred to wir. At wire request, though, vi sprinkled some sugar into wire coffee, before putting the pot down and slicing up some cake. Two fairly large slices from an irregular spot would be sure to throw off any safe piece wy could have set up. Having done that, Viola finally sat down, satisfied in the thought that vi had successfully thrown off any attempt at poisoning vio, and sipped vios milk, patiently waiting for Glen to take the first bite.

Attempting to make small talk failed, as this was a situation that was completely new to vio - meeting with a debtor, and at that a person who wasn’t Don Tigre and yet seemed to have good intentions, was something unheard of in vios world. They had no topic of conversation, and to compliment wir on wire taste in cakes would be to take a bite, which for the moment vi was attempting to stall on doing.]

And with that, wy would take a fairly large bite of the slice, chewing before swallowing and pausing, smiling and giving vio a thumbs up.

"It's pretty good! Not the best coffee cake I've ever had, but it's still good!"

Wy'd reach over and pick up the coffee mug, taking a gulp of it, with seemingly no worries if Viola would have poisoned wir or not.

"You know," Wy started, pulling a smile.

"I do a lot of betting on horses. It's mostly because I love horses and I love gambling. i usually just pick the one with the cutest name, which is usually why I lose so much money. Last time, I picked one named Buttercup. I usually just bet and then go afterwards to talk to the horse I bet on."

Wy'd laugh, rubbing at the back of wire neck, taking another sip of coffee before continuing.

"The one I bet on usually loses, so I go and tell it how good it did that day. Heh.." Wy'd give a nervous laugh, glancing away as wire cheeks flushed.

[Vi took the box delicately, as most of vios motions were. It was true, vi had a soft spot for coffee-based treats, but… there was no way to tell if it was poisoned. Vi didn’t doubt it either - even a seemingly kind person like Glen could be deceiving. There was a simple way to test it, though.]

i… i do…. thank you….

i also… must insist that you have some with me.

[Following this demand, Viola set the box on the table and disappeared for a second, coming back with two plates, a sharp knife (you never know when you’d need to defend yourself), and two cups, one of which vi filled up with milk.]

"Non-poisoned coffee, please?"

Wy'd give a laugh and sit down a bit nervously, giving Viola a smile.

"Just some sugar, please, I haven't tested the cake, so I don't know if it'll taste as good as other cakes from the same brand do. Sorry."

i’m perfectly fine. don tigre… is out. and it gets quiet here without him…

"I could keep you company, if you like. I mean, we don't even know much about each other other than you knowing about my huge debt, right? So maybe we could get to know each other."

Wy'd rub at the back of wir neck, before pulling a small smile and holding out a box of coffee cake.

"I..er..was going to try and bribe you, but I'd prefer to make you feel better, if I could. Do--do you like coffee cake? I didn't ask or anything, sorry. I just..I figured because you're always serving coffee, aren't you?"

…

"E-Err..are you alright? I don't mean to bother you or get you to help me with my debt or anything, you just seemed kind of..lonely."
