[Sunday morning, before word of Jordan's death arrives.]

Sooooo.

Somebody has a crush. ♥

[She needs a distraction. Sorry, Harriet. D:]

WHAT

[be cool Harriet]

Is it someone I know?

[firecracker_hopping]

[DOES SHE KNOW? She did hang out with Ezra, too. Maybe she pieced things together. Oh crap.]

The someone who has a crush is you! I was being clever.

Or just confusing, but I like to flatter myself.

[suddenly_science]

That's utter nonsense

[firecracker_hopping]

I think there's an Eranthis song about this very situation~

[suddenly_science]

Oh god oh god oh god

How obvious was it then?

[firecracker_hopping]

He had no clue, so don't worry!

Aw, Harriet!! You two would be so cute!

[suddenly_science]

YOU KNOW NOT OF WHAT YOU SPEAK

I'm just a fan, okay!

[firecracker_hopping]

What? Oh, come on!

You would be cute together! It's the truth!

[suddenly_science]

NO

LISTEN

I would have no idea what to even do

with him...

oh my god that sounds pervy nevermind

[firecracker_hopping]

Figuring out what to do is half the fun!

[suddenly_science]

Oh dear

[firecracker_hopping]

Uh, in a non-pervy sense.

...

Okay, in both a pervy and a non-pervy sense.

[suddenly_science]

I trust you are experienced in these matters

[firecracker_hopping]

Little bit experienced?

[suddenly_science]

Surely more than I

Well, okay, not surely but you're like 27, right?

[sorry Lera]

[firecracker_hopping]

OH MY GOD DO I REALLY LOOK TWENTY-SEVEN TO YOU

OH

TEE

ELL

[suddenly_science]

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Of course not!!!

How old are you really

[firecracker_hopping]

Twenty-four! There's a world of difference! One is almost twenty-five, THE OTHER IS ALMOST THIRTY!

[suddenly_science]

That's only three years different.

[firecracker_hopping]

Whatever!

Ahem. Um... some experience.

[suddenly_science]

...Anyway if he knew I would die.

So please do not tell.

[firecracker_hopping]

I won't tell him!

But you two would make a cute couple. He likes you! I don't know if he does that way. But it seems possible.

[suddenly_science]

What does "a cute couple" even mean?

[firecracker_hopping]

You're both a little impulsive, but he's laid back while you're, um, energetic?

[Let's go with that and not "neurotic."]

So you balance each other out! That's nice. And when you two were talking, it seemed like he had a lot of fun with it. That's important!

So... Cute.

[suddenly_science]

I see...

Do you spot potential "cute couples" often?

[firecracker_hopping]

I plead the Fifth?

[suddenly_science]

It's way too late for anyone to plead the fifth in this conversation!

[firecracker_hopping]

Sometimes! It's hard not to!

[suddenly_science]

Like who else?

[firecracker_hopping]

Missie and Nadir, LeiLei and my younger brother Vladimir, Anais and Rasmus...

I have a problem. :(

[suddenly_science]

LEILEI AND YOUR YOUNGER BROTHER VLADIMIR

This is an amusing problem

[firecracker_hopping]

You have no idea. :|

But right now, you're the one whose love life I can improve! It's one of my Mazda-y duties, Harriet! With my guidance, you will win the heart of a rock star!

[suddenly_science]

This ride is scary and I want to get off

[firecracker_hopping]

All you need is love, Harriet!
