Bedlam followed, walking beside her.
"Hey, are you alright? You seem to be shaking..."

-
"Back off." She said tersely

"I'm not backing off when you're obviously mad at me. I want to resolve this. Can you at least tell me why you're mad at me? What did I do?"
-
She just stayed silent, not wanting to say a thing
-
"Okay....Silence." He just kept following.
-
"You made me relive hell." She said quietly
-
"I'm really sorry, Alpha, I really am. I don't think I could ever make up for doing what I did, but maybe I can do something for you? How about free food? No one can say no to free food." Bedlam smiled a little.
-
"That's a no for me." She said angrily "Because unlike you, I have to deal with actual shit."
-
"Oh okay, hurtful. Umm...Want to maybe talk this out while we go on a nice walk somewhere or something?"
-
"Look, I'm going to be honest with you. It's the only way you'll -blam!- off. I'm breaking it off with Pan. I'm hoping she doesn't kill me. I don't need the stress of you being around."
-
"I thought she already broke up with you and that's why she asked me ou-Okay, yeah. I'll just go..." Bedlam quickly shut up and turned to leave.
-
"....don't." She said, quietly "I....could...use a friend...for a change" He could tell it pained her to say that
-
"Everyone needs a friend." He turned back to her with a small grin. "I'd be more than happy to be yours...if you don't kill me."
-
"Just try not to be annoying while I head back." She said, still walking towards her ship
-
"Alright, I'll try." He replied, beginning to follow again.
-
She just kept walking, her face grim despite the change in character for the moment.

Edited by Stitch: 12/21/2017 7:25:57 PMBedlam wasn't exactly fond of her grim expression, so he pulled a violin out of thin air and began to play a little happy tune as he walked behind her. It would probably just annoy her, but he felt like he needed to at least try something.
-
"You're flat." She said as they stopped at her ship "So what is it that you wanted me to do?"
-
"I'm not flat..." He mumbled to himself. "I just wanted you to be happy. That's why I'm not going to stop until I see a genuine smile on that face."
-
She rolled her eyes "This is a piss-poor attempt to get in my pants, you know that, right?"
-
Bedlam sighed. "I'm not trying to do anything like that. I have a girlfriend, okay?"
-
"Mhm." She said "And you're offering to take me to dinner. Speaks wonders about your relationship"
-
"Free food is not a romantic dinner, Alpha. It's a new relationship, but I'd never cheat on her or do anything of the sort. I'm very happy with her, thank you." His violin vanished. "How about a friendly walk and then a friendly meal? A guy and a girl don't have to be dating to enjoy spending time with each other, y'know."
-
"Well, I haven't had a romantic dinner in a long time." She said with a laugh "Kinda hard to do when you're a furry"
-
"Well, I bet you'll find someone willing in no time. You're not exactly ugly, Alpha, maybe a bit rough with the personality, but charming in a way." He said, trying to be truthful, but not get killed.
