[She is unsure if she wants to drop the name right away (lucky for me (chrissy), it's always a good day to reveal yuwon's sins.)]
Have you ever like... get left on read from a text message? (If you are from somewhere that lacks communication tech, it's basically getting ignored.) Like I get it if he was in danger and couldn't respond, but he ended up talking around the mission chat during our investigations and he still did not respond to me. It took a message I didn't meant to send to finally get his attention.
Because he is not used to communicating with others and he was way focused on the mission. We talked, but I still feel frustrated over it. Like I thought he was ignoring me on purpose!
He... is not used to having someone to contact. That's pretty much his reason. And I kind of get it. I still told him that I could be gone at any second and he should try to stay in touch when we are far apart.
[But, ah... Not that their relationship is really a secret, but it's still... not known out there to everyone except for a few. How doe she want to say this...]
Yeah, we are close. He has his good qualities, I swear.
[ Ah... Wait. Marcille knows this kind of talk—if not from her novels, then through the vines of gossip back at home that she would regularly engage in. She's nosy herself, though not as bad as many others. She just loves romance and drama...!
But also, this is Rodya. There's a little uneasy swell in Marcille's chest, a little Oh, of course there's someone, before it quietly fades. This is Rodya's turn to talk and Marcille's turn to be a good friend to her. Because that's what they are, at the end of the day: friends. Rodya deserves to be happy. ]
Oh... Yeah, I've met him before. He can be really blunt and kind of awkward sometimes, but he's nice If it's okay to ask... do you like him?
[That's the second time she was asked that question, the first time being Ishmael who pushed her to spill the truth out. Her and Yuwon haven't been really keeping it a secret, but it's not exactly well known to everyone else either. Only a few other people know about it... She's doing decently well talking about it with Marcille so maybe it wouldn't hurt to add one more to the list-]
Yeah... We actually kinda got together after the worm fight in Vegas. Still figuring it out, but...
[Her words kind of stop mid text because she's thinking back on the confession moment and the other events that happened back in that time. She catches herself after like five minutes of silence.]
Oops, didn't mean to go quiet on you without warning. Got lost in thoughts, my bad~ Anyways, I do like him. I still do even after last night.
[ This sort of behavior and expectation is what Marcille expects from couples who are dating rather than friends. She would have accepted the latter if it came from Rodya, but the assumption can't be too outlandish. And it turns out Marcille is right. ]
Rodya?
[ She lets her name slip while waiting for the rest of her response. It's a relief when she picks up the conversation again, but it's also worrying. ]
Kind of got together... And you said he hasn't been in this sort of relationship before, right? Does he know your expectations?
Yeah. I try not to ask a lot since, again... Things are new for him. For us.
[Yuwon is bad at talking on a personal level, staying guarded and isolated to protect himself. She is the same way, but she also struggles to admit her flaws and weaknesses in the open. It's easier chances for people to take advantage of her. She wants to change and change the world around her for the better yet... Everything she has done led her to nowhere while othere succeeded with ease.
Nobody in The City will ever understand her full feelings and maybe nobody would ever will. Maybe she will always be that foolish cottager in that story.]
I want him to be okay with talking normally with me at any time and it's okay to tell me off if I did something wrong.
[She's nobody compared to Yuwon's status back at his world. She doesn't blame him if he chooses to break up at any point.]

[ i'm so sorry but she WILL ask right away ]
Why was he was ignoring you like that? That's so rude!
no subject
We talked, but I still feel frustrated over it.

[girl, you forgot to tell marcille who...]
Oh, right. I'm talking about Yuwon here.
no subject
I didn't know you two were close
Did he say that was his reason?
That honestly sounds like an excuse to me.
