[oh this is such a bad question because he immediately looks confused and also frustrated, but not at her.]

I don't know, Catra. I'm still trying to figure that out.

[supercatty]

[she settles a bit after that, though she's still staring at him with a bit of scrutiny]

Just--

[. . . a huff]

Don't let this stupid destiny thing control you. Okay? Not that I care what you do, or whatever, it's just--

[she has. . . feelings about this kind of thing]

[goalsides]

[there's a pause.]

...this is something I can't really talk about right now. So let's just...not. Okay?

[the "please" goes unsaid, but he's actually visibly uncomfortable with the topic.]

[supercatty]

[scrutinizing him a little bit, but. . . in the end--]

Okay.

[goalsides]

[and he relaxes just slightly.]

Thanks. [he seems to mean it, at least.] ...maybe another time.

[supercatty]

Hey. Sure. It's not like-- you know.

I'm going to press you on it, or anything.

[in fact she may never bring it up again, unless he does. or the conversation naturally goes towards that topic]

[goalsides]

Yeah. [which. thanks. this is how he gets away with never telling anyone anything, so he kind of appreciates that. nevertheless...he does think about that for a moment.]

...it's complicated. It's always been a little complicated, but it got even worse somehow. That's all.
