[Nothing is even remotely fine, but Lief does what he always does: shove it down and keep moving.

—Which is what he's doing, quite literally, when he sees Fie, as he runs over to her. Unlike her, he has the blessing of being uninjured.]

Fie!

Jasmine?

[ you keep referencing these people she doesn't know?? ]

[His smile softens.]

One of my closest friends. She is—I suppose she is to me what your family is to you.

[sylfied]

... Oh. She's your family.

[ okay, that makes sense. ]

[reidentify]

... Yes. I cannot imagine a life without her.

[sylfied]

... Wait, so is she family like girlfriend-family--

[ jiiiiiiiiii. ]

[reidentify]

[WELL, UH.

LIEF'S TURNING RED NOW, SO.]

[sylfied]

...

You know, you could have just said that.

[reidentify]

She is still family! That was not inaccurate.

[LET HIM LIVE]

[sylfied]

There's still a pretty important difference between your average family and your girlfriend.

[reidentify]

I do not think the difference is so great...
