Yes, I've met him! Multiple times, actually. It's hard to go into a dream bubble without meeting one of us.

Oh yeah? Yeah, I guess that's true, what with all the fucked up doomed timelines and stuff.

It's kind of a relief to be only one of me right now! [ she stretches her hands over her head with a sigh, looking around the hive i mean apartment ] It's a lot neater that way.

[He'd roll his eyes if he had any] Has anyone ever told you that you're really weird sometimes, aa?

Yes. Even before I was a ghost frog robot. You don't mind at all, so don't give me that!

Hey, when did I say I minded?

Good point! Anyway, I know I'm pretty weird. Especially with all the hero of time stuff going on. But I think that's part of the game, you know? To end up somewhere different.

Maybe you're right. [He never really thought about that. He crooks a wry smile.] So where was I supposed to end up as the Mage of Doom? I don't think I wound up that different by the end of the game... though maybe I'm different now.

Well, you're doomed now! But that should be a relief after being cursed with your vision twofold, right?

...............

Not...really...

You'll get used to it. I was doomed my whole life!

[Sigh] Well, yeah. But I died twice already.

Then it can't get any worse! I mean, there are things worse than dying. But if dying's the only problem, you already know all about that!

[ a beat ]

Wow, you are not cheering up at all, are you.

[He rubs his forehead] I dunno, I was kinda still glad to be alive, especially since I've lost my visions and everything like that. But whatever. Okay. I'm going to die again.

I didn't say you were going to die! That just seemed to be what you were concerned about.

[Now he's just confused] But you said I was doomed.

It's complicated. And we don't have to worry about it right now anyway!

Of course it is. [He sighs, but gives her a wry smile] I'll try not to worry, then.

You really have cheered up, you know. It's nice!

I have? [He's honestly startled, but he smiles a little] I guess I have. It's weird.

I don't think you'd have said you'd try not to worry, before. Worrying was your favorite thing! [ she pokes him in the cheek, teasingly ]

[He snorts and pokes her back, getting her shoulder] I never liked worrying. I just couldn't help doing it all the time!

[ she'll graciously pretend that was what he intended to poke ] You mean you even worried about worrying?

[ yeah aradia is making full use of her recovered ability to tease ]

Sometimes. [He grumbles at her, but can't help but smile] What's wrong with worrying about worrying?

That is just way too much worrying! You wouldn't have time in the night for anything else. Especially when you start worrying about worrying about worrying. [ she leans back against the couch, surveying the room ] I think a break will be nice.
