[But when D.Va starts entwining her fingers with his, Griffin looks away with a guilty pang. Even if they had agreed to just... let this be whatever it was? It's still wrong to keep going without telling her about his relationship with Shrike, right?
He bites his lips, looking hesitant-- nervous, even. But he has to get this off his chest, or the dishonesty will just make him wither.]
Hey, D.Va...? You know this, whatever-this-is we got? Um. [TAKES A DEEP BREATH. Just spit it out. Come on.]
Shrike and I started dating. It just-- happened, and I like her a lot and... I like you a lot. And I don't wanna keep anything from you, 'cause you're pretty much my best friend and maybe I ended up with a crush on you too.
[VERY QUICKLY ADDING,] --And if that's not okay then I'm sorry, you deserve more and, and... this is really bad timing...
[Despite himself, he squeezes her hand back - in his heart, still not wanting to let her go.]
