No. I wanted to spend the night with you, ... Why is that so hard for you to understand?
[ stands there dumbly for another few moments before turning and heading back into the garden. she’ll just sniff the fire and drag the cart into the pavilion. ]
[ she whirls around and bristles at being called a liar. ]
I’m not lying! I want to spend the night with you, Kohime! Stop focusing on other people, because right now they’re not important!
I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t want to spend time with you! I wouldn’t keep making an effort and getting upset and hurting myself in dumb and stupid ways if I didn’t fucken love you!
Im not lying-! [ stamps her foot, growling through clenched teeth. ] And I know what I said.
[ ... ] The one I really- Is this about King?! Why the hell are you comparing yourself to him! Stop it! Why can’t I love the both of you, Kohime?! And I don’t know what the hell he’s doing now and I don’t care!
[ scrubs her hands over her face, so she can hide it, because now she’s getting upset. ] That’s not what I wanted. I wanted to make you happy because I care about you, stupid, and making you happy makes me happy and that’s why I’m here and I found this place and I made you food and I wanted to spend the fucken night with you gazing at the god damn stars!
[She walks them right up to each other, stopping when they're only a couple feet apart, though she doesn't release D.Va even then.]
What's the matter? Change your mind already? Oh no. That was fast.
[Her smile, her posture, mannerism, it's all deliberately casual and sassy, if a little cartoonishly exaggerated –– like she's trying to play the part of a terrible, femme fatale type villain. But her eyes a just a little wild –– remember that oh-so-slightly unstable Catra in the barracks in her heart? Looks like she might be making a cameo here.]
I’m not sure why you think you have to hold me against my will. It’s not like I was the one planning on leaving. I wasn’t lying when I said this is exactly where I wanted to be, Kohime.
[ she’s not sure what she can do or say to fix this. nothing, probably. this was always going to be a problem, but she’s not sure how and why it suddenly came about when they were just having a good time. it must have been something she said. ]
[It tapers off eventually into hiccups that sound a little like sobs, then she's quiet again, except for some rustling as she searches through her clothes for something.]
because she's sunk a small knife into her arm, damn near through it, and has her ears pinned back and tail lashing as she stands with blood dripping onto the ground.]
[ she's going to rush over as soon as she sees the knife and the blood and grab her freaking wrist. ] What the fuck do you think you're doing?! [ squeezes, tight, giving her a tug until she's close enough for her to pull the knife out. ]
Kohime, answer me! [ it's a bit difficult one handed, but she'll be attempting to cut up her skirt, so she can make some makeshift bandages. ]

Ooooh, right— thanks for the meal, or whatever. But I’ll be good from here. I’m sure there’s somewhere else you’d rather be.

[ stops, stunned, and immediately looking hurt. ]

It’s not a contest!

I'm no one's most important! No one chooses me! I know how you feel! That's what you said!
Is that all you wanted, someone to trail after you, to want you the most, a fallback when the one you really want to be with is busy?!

[Puppets her to walk them back closer together :)]
Re: 2/2
[ and she’s not expecting to be puppeted. this is the weirdest feeling ever and, guess what, she doesn’t like it. ]
...
[ now she’s just disappointed. what a turn this took. ]

So what plans have you got for us, hm?

So?

You wanted me, here I am.

I’m going to clean this stuff up, since I guess we’re finished eating.
I thought we could stargaze, but if you’re not into the idea, Kohime, then... I’m not going to force you to stay and be miserable.
[ goes to clean up, which doesn’t take too long. ]
no subject
Standing there, she doesn't say anything. She's not really even tracking what D.Va is doing, either.]

Join me?

[ she has no idea how to react to that. she just feels stupid at this point. upset and hurt. lays down on the roof, tail draped over herself. ]
