I don't really have friends here. There's people I work with. And there's the gods, but-- it's different, kind of, with them, since they already know stuff about us.
[ he says it like he's annoyed she'd try to tell him that. ]
But if they already know stuff about you, then there's not much point in trying to hide those things. That's less of a gap you have to cross than you have with others.
... It's okay to have stuff that you can't forgive. Or... To have stuff you do forgive, but to still not want to... [ hm, what's the best articulation for this. ] Um, pick up where you left off? I guess?

Oh, hello. Are you looking for Senri-kun?
no subject
[ senri has friends ]

Of course not. You'd have to be apart from him to be looking for him.

Um, that was a joke.

The gods are still just people. And - I'm sure that plenty of the people you work with think of you as a friend.

[ . . . ]
Then... Were you upset because it felt like you'd crossed a gap already? With me?
no subject
... this is dumb.
no subject
It's okay, though. You were upset, and I apologized for it once I understood. I think that this counts as a resolution good enough for the rules.
You don't have to force yourself anymore past that.

[ he looks over at the windows, frowning. ]
