Karma: they fucking kick the door open YOU’RE ALIVE!
Kyoji: AHgfsf! Last time I checked I was, yeah. Good to see you!
Karma: they run to Kyoji and pull him into a tight hug
Kyoji: hugs How are you?
Karma: their face is pressed against Kyoji, making their voice muffled Meh.
Kyoji: I wish things would stay “meh” for once. Never seem to be.
Karma: Meh is a nice break from the shitfest that is life.
Kyoji: laughs Poetic.
Karma: ……can you erase memories?
Kyoji: Afraid not. I’m no neurologist.
Karma: Do we have a neurologist?
Kyoji: Yasuke was the only neurologist I knew with the skills for something like that, but nobody’s seen him for a while. I hope he’s still out there.
Karma: Damn….
Kyoji: Anything else I can do you?
Karma: Not sure. Was… was the mission safe?
Kyoji: Well, considering we almost got nuked, it was safer than I imagined
Karma: WH- THEY TRIED TO NUKE YOU?! WHO?! WHO DID IT?! I’LL KILL THEM! NO ONE NUKES MY DAD!! their eyes go wide and they quickly cover their mouth
Kyoji: Karma! Karma, calm down, please First off, none of us died. Sonia actually got the worst of it, but she managed to shrug most of it off. I still don’t know how she did it, but she did. Second, dad?
Karma: ……..I don’t know what you’re talking about
Kyoji: I’m not deaf, Karma. And if I was, I could fix it. He hugs them
Karma: they pull from his hug You may not be deaf but you may have misheard.
Kyoji: Nobody mishears the phrase “No one nukes my dad,” especially not from someone yelling.
Karma: Uh- aha. But I don’t HAVE a dad. So CLEARLY you misheard.
Kyoji: …Are you being a tsundere right now?
Karma: No.
Kyoji: I-it’s not like I consider you my dad or anything! B-baka!
Karma: I-I-I DON’T, YOU IDIOT!
Kyoji: Hey, I’m just kidding. Trying to keep spirits up after that whole debacle.
Karma: ……….
Kyoji: Hey. Why did the scarecrow win an award?
Karma: ….why? Scarecrows don’t get awards.
Kyoji: Because he was outstanding in his field!
Karma: they are very clearly trying to hold in a laugh
Kyoji: Why should you bring a bucket to music practice? To carry the tune!
Karma: they’re covering their mouth now
Kyoji: Why is it so hard to explain jokes to Kleptomaniacs? They always take things literally!
Kyoji: Why do mummies always go on a rampage when you open their tombs? They’re just dying to get out of there!
Karma: NO SHIT!!! PPPPPPHAAAAAHAHAHA!!!!
Kyoji: Smiles I could just keep going.
Karma: P-Please no. Haha. You’re killing me.
Kyoji: Well, you know what they say! You can’t spell “slaughter” without “laughter!”
Karma: HEY YOU JUST STOLE ONE OF MY LINES I LIKE TO USE! IT REALLY IS TRUE THAT YOU CAN’T! they’re rolling on the floor now
Kyoji: I have achieved a true rofl
Karma: Oh fuck you Da- Kyoji
Kyoji: Heheh. I don’t mind if you wanna call me that.
Karma: Call you what?
Kyoji: Karma, it’s fine, really I don’t want to sound presumptuous, but I think I’ve been more of a father to you than your biological father.
Karma: Whaddya mean by that?
Kyoji: For one thing, I actually care about you.
Karma: ………
Kyoji: It’s true, you know.
Karma: Of course it’s true.
Kyoji: …I never had a father growing up. All I had was my mom.
Karma: My mom died giving birth to me.
Kyoji: Did you…ever learn what she was like?
Karma: Nope. Dad wanted me to not know anything about her.
Kyoji: Dick.
Karma: I saw a picture of her once though. We had the same long brown hair and green eyes.
Kyoji: I can see that. The eyes, at least. Even if you never got to know her, I think she loved you regardless.
Karma: She couldn’t love me if she never met me.
Kyoji: But she gave you a chance at life.
Karma: I don’t think she would have if she knew what was going to happen.
Kyoji: Well, that’s the territory that comes with being a parent.
Karma: Whatever.
Kyoji: Don’t you whatever me, child.
Karma: !!! What?
Kyoji: My mom took a risk in having me, but she gave me a chance. And I took a risk in creating Ryouko, but we gave her a chance too.
Karma: Yeah. I guess.
Kyoji: Really, I consider a lot of the people here family. Chuckles There was actually this one time when I actually called Chisa “Big sis." In front of many people.
Karma: Pffft.
Kyoji: Not my finest moment.
Karma: ……..but apparently me calling you "Dad” isn’t that bad?
Kyoji: Well, it depends. Do you want to call me that?
Karma: ………… I- um…
Kyoji: smiles
Karma: …….would you be okay with it?
Kyoji: Of course.
Karma: …..and you don’t feel weird that I… that I think of you as my dad?
Kyoji: As long as you don’t consider it weird that your dad is a mutant
Karma: I don’t mind. I myself am a parasite.
Kyoji: Shhh. We already talked about that.
Karma: I still consider myself a parasite. Nothing you can say will change that. Point is, I’m sure a mutant dad will be infinitely better than my biological one.
Kyoji: Fair enough. Now, as your new mutant father, there is something I must do.
Karma: Huh?
Kyoji: He boops their nose Boop.
Karma: they laugh before pulling Kyoji into a hug
Kyoji: hugs
Karma: ……. so I can consider you my Dad now?
Kyoji: Absolutely.
Karma: they stand on their tiptoes and give Kyoji a peck on the cheek Thanks, Dad.
Kyoji: He pats them on the head You’re welcome.
Karma: ………does this make Ryouko my sister? And like…. Sly my kinda potential brother in law?
Kyoji: For the former, I guess so. But the latter? Not in seven hundred million years.
Karma: What? Sly’s a good guy.
Kyoji: … You say these words and I understand they form a sentence, but it just…it doesn’t make sense.
Karma: Why don’t you like him?
Kyoji: Do you really want me to go into a dad lecture? Because I can go into two. One for that guy and another for Naomi.
Karma: ……what?
Kyoji: Protection is important, dammit!
Karma: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH NAOMI?!
Kyoji: NOTHING! I like her. I’m just saying, protection is key when you’re doing things with her. Or anyone, in fact.
Karma: …..wait you meant- ohhhhhhhhh. Dude, I’m not fucking stupid of course we use protection.
Kyoji: You better! And let’s not even get started on your diet! You need to eat properly, you know. Plenty of essential vitamins and minerals. And not a liter of coke every other day.
Karma: I GET TO EAT WHATEVER I WANT. AT LEAST I’M NOT EATING MAPLE SUGAR CANDIES AND NANAIMO BARS EVERY DAY LIKE I WISH I COULD.
Kyoji: Do not use that tone with me! You’ll earn yourself a time out!
Karma: I’M ALMOST 18!!!!
Kyoji: You signed on for dadness and so we’re starting at the beginning
Karma: FUCK VEGETABLES!!
Kyoji: After a moment of silence, he laughs
Karma: What’s so funny?
Kyoji: I’m sorry, I’m having way too much fun with this.
Karma: You changed the subject is what you did.
Kyoji: I went full-on dad mode.
Karma: And changed the subject.
Kyoji: I know, I’m sorry. But come on, as your dad, I shall treat you to some cake.
Naomi: …I didn’t. Do you think- do you think we are going too fast, Karma-Chan?
Karma: …….what do you mean?
Naomi: This. Our relationship- do you think we are going too fast?
Karma: …I don’t know.
Naomi: I love you, but- I don’t even know.
Karma: Did… did you have an idea or something you wanted to suggest?
Naomi: That we maybe should, like, take a step back? I don’t think a rushed relationship will do good to either of us.
Karma: How far back are you suggesting?
Naomi: To the ‘we probably should have a date before we start having make out sessions’ phase? Is it okay?
Karma: S-sure. That seems fair.
Naomi: Don’t get me wrong. I love you. I just… I don’t want to think either of us is rushing into things without thinking.
Karma: Right…
Naomi: Is something wrong?
Karma: N-no no. Nothing’s wrong. If I ever cross any boundaries or start going too fast again, I want you to let me know.
Naomi: It wasn’t just you. It was both of us. I asked you to kiss me, remember? I’m more worried I am going too fast.
Karma: ……
Naomi: Something *is* wrong, isn’t it?
Karma: I don’t think so.
Naomi: If you say so. Karma-Chan, I’m sorry for breaking out with you. Will you go on a date with me?
Karma: …. I’d love to.
Naomi: would a picnic on the roof be okay? We are kind of limited here.
Karma: It sounds lovely.
Naomi: …Are you coming to see if we can snick food? *They suggest their hand to Karma. *
Karma: *they take her hand and form a weak smile* Let’s go!
*A while later, on the roof*
Naomi: Well, that was fun.
Karma: It was!
Naomi: Are you sure there is nothing wrong, right?
Karma: You don’t need to worry about me, Naomi. I’m fine.
Naomi: If you say so. *she laughs* It’s nice up here.
Karma: It is. Even if the sky is red.
Naomi: I miss colors. You can barely see any now days, with all of us in uniforms… And even those that not are dark and gloomy
Karma: Yeah… I miss colors too.
Naomi: At least I have green.
Karma: You’re right. The grass and leaves are still there. *they don’t catch on that Naomi is talking about their eye. *
Naomi: True… But that’s not exactly what I meant.
Karma: Oh?
Naomi: I’ll give you a hint. *She lowers her voice. * I’m looking at it right now.
Karma: *their face goes red* Oh! M-my eye!
Naomi: You got it. *She smiles. * Your eyes are beautiful.
Karma: I wish my other eye could be seen more. It’s kinda closed a lot though… and covered.
Naomi: Do you want to show it to me?
Karma: Uh- sure… *they brush their hair out of their face and reveal a severely burnt and scarred half of their face. They slowly open their closed eye but it can only open a bit*
Naomi: *She doesn’t say a word, just pet the not burned cheek. *
You are beautiful.
Karma: I don’t feel like I am… but thank you. Thank you very much.
Naomi: You don’t need to thank me for telling the truth.
Karma: *their face goes red and they laugh lightly*
Naomi: You are also adorable when blushy.
Karma: *their face is now very red and they cover their face with their hands, making flustered noises*
Naomi: *With a satisfied smile. * See, adorableness.
Karma: *they speak between their fingers* I love you…
*Naomi enters Karma’s room in the middle of the night, trying to not awake the sleeping. However, she trips and it miserably fails.
Karma: *they sit up in bed with a gun in hand* I’m not afraid to shoot!
Naomi: *Standing up* Shit, I didn’t mean to wake you, love. I just… I needed to see you.
Karma: Naomi? What- are you okay?
Naomi: I just- A nightmare. I wanted to make sure you are okay.
Karma: I’m okay…
Naomi: I know, I just… I needed to prove this to myself, so my stupid brain will shut up.
Karma: Can I help in some way?
Naomi: Just… Be here, please? *There are still tears dripping from her eyes. * And… I’d really appreciate a hug.
Karma: *they get out of bed and walk to Naomi, pulling her into a tight hug*
Naomi: *She hugs back, the tears finally stopping* Sorry for the whole… Creepy stalker thing I just did.
Karma: It’s fine. I’d probably do the same.
Naomi: I love you. I love you so much.
Naomi: I know I can’t ask you this, as we are dating for what, few weeks, but…but… Can I stay here? I’ll sleep on the floor, I just…
Karma: Oh! No it’s fine. You can sleep in my bed.
Naomi: Are you sure?
Naomi: I don’t want to be a bother.
Karma: You aren’t a bother….
Naomi: If you say so… *she enters Karma’s bed, trying to make herself catch the least space she can. *
Karma: *they crawl into bed and pull Naomi close*
Naomi: *Surprised* Oh? *She turns around, wrapping her hands around Karma* Better?
Karma: Much better.
Naomi: I’m sorry if I’ll wake you up. I’m not… Sleeping well, lately.
Karma: It’s perfectly fine. Even if you wake up screaming and crying, I’ll be here for you.
Naomi: I don’t deserve you. God, I love you so much.
Naomi: …I wish I could do more for you.
Karma: It’s okay. You’re doing fine. I don’t think there’s much anyone can do for me.
Naomi: But I feel so useless… You are so wonderful, and I can’t do anything.
Karma: I don’t feel wonderful. And you’re not useless. You’re able to keep your head in the hardest of times. I lose my cool immediately. You’re very brave too.
Naomi: …Am I? I don’t feel brave.
Naomi: I will do anything for you, Karma-chan. I’d wear the stupid maid outfit if you asked me to. Everything to see you smile.
Karma: *they laugh* Well the maid outfit IS cute.
Naomi: I’ll ask Orochi-kun if he knows where I can get one, if you want me to. I just… I don’t want you to leave because I’m not good enough.
Karma: I think you’re wonderful.
Naomi: Really? Why would you think that?
Karma: You just are. I love you very much.
Naomi: I love you too.
Naomi: I… Probably should apologize for all the times I Edward Cullen’d you lately.
Karma: Hm? What do you mean?
Naomi: I’ve been standing here every night, watching you sleep until I manage to convince myself you are okay for…. a bit now.
And I know this is creepy but I can’t think on any other way.
Karma: *they laugh loudly* Are you serious?
Naomi: *She buries her face in Karma’s neck* Y-yes.
Karma: …..perhaps you could share my room with me.
//Right after everyone were freed from the game and returned to FF
Naomi: Karma-san! Karma-san!
Karma: Hm? Naomi, what’s up?
*Noami’s hands are suddenly wrapped around them, forcing them to a hug. *
Naomi: I was so worried. Are you okay?
Karma: *they’re taken aback at first but ease into the hug* I’m doing alright, yeah. Sadao said he’d help me figure stuff out. I think things may start to get better for me…
Naomi: That’s wonderful. You didn’t get hurt or anything, right? During… Whatever happened?
Karma: Not physically. You?
Naomi: …Not physically.
Karma: Are you alright? What happened to you in there?
Naomi: Nothing! I was locked in a room with Hijirihara for few hours. I Have some of your weapons, by the way. I didn’t know what happened, didn’t know where I was or where were you all… And I’m terrified I’d close my eyes and you will disappear again.
Karma: Naomi, I’m not going to disappear. I’m right in front of you, see? It’s going to be okay.
Naomi: *She takes a breath. * You promise?
Karma: …Promise. May I ask why you’re so worried about me leaving?
Naomi: Because… I don’t even know. I just know that I keep thinking that if I turn away and not look at you, you’d be gone.
Karma: You don’t need to worry about me so much, alright? There’s no reason to. I’m not going anywhere.
*Naomi raises a finger to Karma’s nose, touching it briefly. *
Naomi: Boop.
*thinking: They won’t get it. I know they won’t. That’s…Probably why I do it. *
Karma: Wh- huh?
Naomi: Just… Something I thought I should do. Nothing important.
Karma: A-alright… *they touch Naomi’s nose* Boop?
Naomi: Thank you, Karma-san. *thinking: They don’t know what it means. They are just copying you. Calm down. *
Naomi: Are you sure nothing worth noting happened?
Karma: Well… I kinda said a lot of things. Like that I would kill everyone if that’s what it took to get to the end. Kinda worried that people may still remember that. I kinda broke under the pressure.
Naomi: I’m sure they will. Pressure is a bitch. As long as you didn’t really mean it, it should be okay.
Naomi: Me, in the meanwhile, managed to panic myself and then yell on Hijirihara when he was really trying to be nice.
Karma: Looks like we both kinda messed up.
Naomi: You are saying it like a new thing.
Karma: Gosh I wish it was a new thing.
Naomi: I love you anyway. For all the mess and the worry.
Karma: Aw haha. Thanks Noami. I love you too
Naomi: *thinking: Please mean it like I do. * Karma-san?
Karma: Hm?
Naomi: *She gives Karma a kiss.*
Karma: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Naomi: Sorry. *She is still hugging Karma, and how much sorry she is is debatable. *
Karma: Wh-what was that all about? *they cock their head to the side in confusion*
Naomi: I followed an impulse that told me to give you a kiss.
Karma: But, why did you even get that impulse?
*Naomi considers it for a moment before speaking. *
Naomi: I think… I think I love you. Like… Love you-love you, and I really don’t have a better way to put it.
Naomi: I apologize if it has a negative effect on our friendship.
Karma: Wait, really?!
Naomi: I’ve never been in love before, so I am not sure. But it seems likely, yes.
Karma: *they blush* O-oh. I-I had no idea. And I’m really the first person you’ve felt this way about?
Naomi: *She nods her head. *
Naomi: *thinking: I can’t believe I just did that. *
Karma: H-how old are you again?
Naomi: Eighteen and a half. I’m not that much older.
Karma: I mean… you haven’t felt attracted to anyone in 18 and a half years?
Naomi: Nope. But I care for you a lot, and… Your kisses are nice, and… I don’t even know how you can tell.
Karma: …your kisses are nice too.
Naomi: *She is suddenly blushy again. * Thank you.
Karma: N-no problem… *they have a light blush*
Naomi: Did I manage to make you blush? How did that happen?
Karma: A-am I really blushing?
Naomi: *She touches Karma’s chicks, following the blush outline. * Just a bit.
Karma: O-oh. Huh.
Naomi: I clame for ownership. You are too cute. Mine now.
Karma: Wh- huh? Oh! Uh um, I-I mean- …sure. *their face is a very deep red*
Naomi: *She gives Karma another kiss, turning more red as she does it. *
Karma: *they happily kiss back, smiling as they do so*
*This turns out to be a make out session, because of course it does*
Karma: *they eventually pull away* …I should probably tell you something before you make a final decision…
Naomi: Karma-san? What’s wrong?
Karma: I uh… I’m kind of a parasitic twin? L-like I have some doubles of organs. And I’m not exactly sure if I’m male or female.
Naomi: Were you always one? Even if you didn’t know it?
Karma: Yeah…
Naomi: So you are still you. I knew you are physically both genders. You told me. That shouldn’t matter, should it?
Karma: I- I guess not. …thank you.
Naomi: That’s not a problem. *She tightens her hug for a brief moment, before returning to how it was. *
Karma: S-so… are you my girlfriend now…?
Naomi: Only if you want me to be. *She looks on the floor. * Do you want me to be?
Karma: W-well, do you want me to be YOUR “girlfriend”?
Naomi: I think the accurate term is Significant Other? And yes, I do.
Karma: Ah yeah, that term works better. And uh… then I want you as my girlfriend.
Naomi: *At the 6th branch* Karma-san, are you there? I need to talk to you
Karma: Hm? *they walk over to Naomi* What’s up, homeslice?
Naomi: We need to talk about the party. *She plays with her hair nervously. * Can we do it somewhere private?
Karma: Uh- oh uh… sure. Where would you like to go?
Naomi: I’m not sure. We just need to have this talk alone. *They walk a bit until they find a place. * I… I wanted to apologize
Karma: What for?
Naomi: My actions at the party were… completely out of the line. I’m sorry, Karma-san. I shouldn’t have kissed you.
Karma: It… it’s fine. I knew no one would kiss me sober and in their right mind. I was expecting this. You’re right to feel you shouldn’t have.
Naomi: That’s… not what I meant. I just… I just want to see you smile, Karma-san. And I guess my drunk self thought kissing you was a good way to do this?
Karma: …. You want to see me smile?
Naomi: *She nods her head. * Yes.
Karma: Listen, I’m at fault too. I feel like I almost took advantage of you.
Naomi: What? I was the one who ask you for kisses. And hugs. I think. It’s a bit blurry.
Karma: Yes, but I went along with it. And you were drunk. You wouldn’t have done it sober, so I shouldn’t have gone along, even if I was drunk too.
Naomi: You are not always at fault at everything. * She blushes. * Actually, I’ve been meaning to ask you something, but that’s a bit embarrassing.
Karma: Hm? What’s up?
Naomi: That was… kind of my first kiss? And I really liked that? So… IkindofwantyoutokissmeagainsoIcouldknowifIlikedthatbecauseIwasdrunkorbecauseitwasyou. *She says it all in one breath*
Karma: *they’re completely taken aback* What?! Y-you actually want me to kiss you again?! As like… a test thing?
Naomi: *She blushes even redder* Yeah? Is it okay?
Karma: I- uh… sure? …like you mean now?
Naomi: If you don’t mind.
Karma: O-okay. *after a moment’s pause, they lean in and kiss Naomi*
Naomi: *Shed cuts of after few moments. * That was… Really nice.
Karma: O-oh. Was it?
Naomi: Yes. It was fun
Karma: I’m… glad?
Naomi: I… I wish you would smile more, Karma-san. I like it when you smile.
Karma: I like your smile too… I’ll try harder to smile more. It’s just difficult.
Naomi: *She has a bit of a bastardly smile. * Oh, really? *She gets closer to Karma* Are you ticklish, Karma-san? *Without trying to an answer, she just starts trying to tickle Karma*
Karma: *they immediately start to laugh, and struggle to speak* N-Naomi! What are- ahahaha!
Naomi: See? Smiling is not that hard.
Karma: *between laughs* Yeah, when you’re tickling me!
Naomi: *She lets Karma go* I was proving my point.
Karma: Point proven.
Naomi: *She hugs Karma* Yay!
Karma: *they hug Naomi back, a real smile on their face*
Naomi: I like you. You are one of my best friends. You know that, right?
Karma: *they let go* It seems I’ve been two people’s first kiss now. You and Sly. Kinda crazy.
Naomi: Apparently all your friends are lame ass virgins. *She rolls her eyes*
Karma: *they snicker* Are you including yourself in that sentence?
Naomi: Sly-kun, myself… Until three months ago I’d have counted Junpei-kun as well…
Karma: Yeah…
Naomi: I forgot! I’m such an idiot. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought it up.
Karma: N-no it’s fine! I- I’m happy that they’re happy. I support them.
Naomi: Funny. I supported you. But I support everything that would make you happy now, I guess.
Karma: Well, then support yourself to. You make me happy. Your personality is a wonderful one. And if I’m honest, your style is super cute too.
Naomi: *She blushes, burying her face in Karma’s shoulder. * Thanks.
Karma: Haha, you blush pretty easily, Naomi.
Naomi: I think it’s still leftovers from the party. Never was the blush type before. Not that I was in constant touch with people before the tragedy, so… Who knows.
Karma: …Naomi are you happy?
Naomi: *She thinks of it…* Haa… I guess I am. I have more friends than I had in my whole life. It’s kind of a big deal. Even though my parents are missing, and the world is shit… I’m happy. Are you?
Karma: I’m not really sure. I mean, I get small periods of happiness every so often. I’m not sure what my general or constant state is. I feel like I’ve almost fooled myself into thinking I’m happy.
Naomi: Why would you feel like fooling yourself? I mean… I like to know when I’m sad, so I could work into making it better.
Karma: I’ve never thought of it that way.
Naomi: How? Have you never tried to make yourself feel better with cookies and movies and stuff?
Karma: I mean, I feel happy with that stuff sometimes. Though I never really got the chance to bake that much in my lifetime.
Naomi: This needs to be fixed. Remind me one day and I’ll teach you to make cookies like my mom taught me. That’s the only thing I can bake.
Karma: *they smile again* Sure thing, Naomi!
Naomi: I’m sure Mage-san won’t mind letting us borrow her kitchen. *She laughs a bit. * It still so wired hearing my first name like that.
Karma: Ah sorry! Should I call you by your last name?
Naomi: No, that’s okay. I’ll get used to that. But you are aware for what it means over here, right?
Karma: Not really…
Naomi: It means you are either partners or really good friends, usually. Or family, of course. I… Never really considered anyone besides my family calling me that.
Karma: Ah! I didn’t know I was calling everyone things that private or whatever!
Naomi: You are what, Canadian? It’s okay. I just said it was wired.
Karma: I must make people feel so awkward.
Naomi: I don’t think most of them mind? I mean, you got Junpei-kun to call you by first name, which I haven’t managed to do yet, even though I’m terrible with name and calls him Junpei-kun from our first talk to annoy him. And because I didn’t remember his last name
Naomi: And I went completely off topic there, no?
Karma: It’s fine. *they pause* sorry again for the kissing stuff.
Naomi: I think it is my line.
Karma: …do you regret it?
Naomi: *She takes a moment to consider it* … No. Why would I?
Karma: I don’t know…
Naomi: I mean, I’m pretty sure most kids my age had their first kisses with someone who they realize they hate few days afterwards. I had mine with a friend. Do you regret saying yes to me when I asked?
Karma: …No. It was nice.
Naomi: Then no. I don’t regret it.
Karma: Alright. *they pause* Did you enjoy it?
Naomi: I did. I enjoyed it a lot.
Naomi: That’s why I asked for another kiss. To know if it was the alcohol or you that made it so enjoyable.
Karma: Ah- heh… Right.
Naomi: What is it?
Karma: It’s nothing.
Naomi: *For once in her life, she decides against pushing. * Remember, I’m here for you if it becomes something.
Karma: Mhm…
Naomi: Okay, great.
Naomi: Karma-san, I don’t regret a moment of what happened in the party, okay? And I don’t regret a moment of this conversation. Remember that.
Karma: Ah- s-sure. I’ll remember.
Naomi: Love you! But I really need to go back to work. I’ll talk to you later. *She walks away. *
Karma: WH- AH- UM- I- *they only consider to talk to themselves as she walks away* What the fuck does she mean by that?!?!?!
