You still haven't told me what it was. Come on, quit being a coward.

[dualiso]

I'm willing to share many things with you, old friend. This is not one of them.

[look, he would tell him, it's just that monoco will never let him live it down]

[pieds]

It's not going to change my opinion of you if that's what you're worried about. It didn't with the last one, so why would it be any different THIS time?

[dualiso]

I know that. Of course I know that. [it's still nice to hear. he does have doubts, sometimes, about... well. irrelevant to the conversation at hand] If I tell you, you're never going to let me forget about it.

[pieds]

And that's different than every other time... how? I don't understand.

[dualiso]

Ah, right. I forget sometimes that Gestrals have a tenuous grasp of shame.

[he's a little bit envious, honestly. wouldn't it be nice to enjoy life without feeling bad about it later?]

... fine. Fine! He said I reminded him of his older brother. Then began to list the ways.

[he hasn't spit out the worst bit though]

[pieds]

I don't even know what that is.

_{[ and the lie detector determined that was a lie. gestral or no, he's kind of an outlier and probably shouldn't be counted. ]}

But, I'm listening. Go on.

[dualiso]

He tied a neat little bow on it by telling me his brother Gommaged six months ago.

[but wait, there's more. the actual worst part:]

I didn't have the heart to stop him after that.

[pieds]

I may not have features like yours but I want you to imagine the look I'm giving you right now. You know the one.

What else? You said he asked something.

[dualiso]

I did, didn't I? Forget about that. It isn't important.

[said the evasive evader, evadingly]

[pieds]

Yes it is.

[dualiso]

It is unequivocally not.

[pieds]

It is to me.

[dualiso]

[aauuuugh next time he feels the need to get blackout drunk over something he's going to chuck his phone in the sea first]

You're not letting this go, are you.

[pieds]

Not when it's bothering you this badly, no.

[dualiso]

[monoco...]

Yeah. Alright. I'll tell you, just... maybe not in writing?

[pieds]

Wouldn't it be easier?

[dualiso]

Easier, and more permanent.
