[ Glimmer stares over at Catra. She can't help herself, she breaks into breathless laughter and flops back onto the fire escape. This is too funny. SHe laughs for a solid few seconds before she has to catch her breath. Gasping, she tries to sit back up. ]
If you haven't told her, how do you know that she knows?
Uh, not that I meant to talk to you about this tonight...
[ Glimmer's cheeks get a little pinker. She looks over at Catra, trying to decide what to say. Or maybe just how to say it. ]
But she might think that you could never feel that way about her. As a hypothetical, maybe that's what she's thinking? I mean, she did come over to my place crying after uh, you know... that whole conversation you two had about promises.
Uh, probably because you love her? Also because sometimes she's not an idiot, about like, giving other people advice about people they like. Or about planning stuff.
[ Snort. ]
She made a whole plan of attack for Princess Prom.
We didn't know you were coming. This was just her plan to like, go to the party and not mess up saying hello to Princess Frosta.
[ Glimmer rolls her eyes. ]
And I was just, completely losing my mind because Bow went as Perfuma's plus one and I was stupid jealous because I thought I was about to lose my best friend, so I was just useless...
[ Glimmer's knees draw up towards her chest, then her head drops forward onto them. She's quiet for a moment in return. ]
Yeah. I know.
[ She doesn't know what else to say because the thought of Bow never forgiving her makes her heart want to drop into her stomach and stay there forever. ]
I just have to tell him I'm sorry and then... give him the space he needs, I guess.

You are so into Adora.

Maybe-- maybe it was gonna be, but that was a long time ago! All right?! Geez.

Have you actually just said it?
no subject
Date: 2020-11-24 03:33 am (UTC)Gross! I wouldn't say it like that!
A-And anyway, it's not like Adora doesn't know!

Date: 2020-11-24 03:46 am (UTC)[ You can almost see the lightbulb come on in Catra's brain as she realizes, and then just slowly puts her face in her hands. ]
She doesn't know, does she.

Date: 2020-11-24 04:13 am (UTC)[ She'd thought it might be weird to be open about this with Catra, but it feels strangely simple. ]
I did some stuff that hurt him and he's not here, so I don't know when I'll be able to make it up to him.
[ She sighs, leans her head forward again. Her voice is muffled by her arms. ]
And I'm kind of in love with him which makes that part even worse.

Date: 2020-11-24 04:37 am (UTC)[ For a minute, it seems like that's all she's going to say. Just an acknowledgment. Then-- ]
... Sometimes you can't. Make it up, I mean.
