See, no bloodshed - good dance, right?

[The stories these two could swap some time... eesh.]

I don't know. You say that like I've actually seen this Hey, Arnold thing before.

[Versed in pop-culture, she was not.]

There wasn't a whole lot of television in my childhood. Or books. Though the latter was mostly because books made better weapons than entertainment.

I would say that is generally the sign of a good dance, yeah.

[Oh, he's curious. And some people know already, and she seems nice so maybe—no, nope, it's not just his secret.]

How can you not have—oh.

[He honestly cannot even imagine.]

That...sounds like it sucks. A lot, actually.

[The image of using books as weapons is kind of hilarious, if you imagine it literally.]

What, like, throwing them at people's heads?

[Besides, watching these two talk around their secrets is way too fun to not keep it going!]

I don't know. I had plenty of other things to keep me busy. It wasn't all bad.

[Training to kill evil things took up a lot of time.]

Exactly. [No really. It's canon.] Hey, when you try and force five year olds to write out Rosemarie Hathaway and Vasilisa Dragomir? You're asking to get whacked with a book or two.

Yeah, other things like throwing books at people, apparently.

[He is honestly going to laugh every time he thinks about tiny Rose throwing books at people.]

But I get it. I mean, not me personally, but I've got a friend.

[WHAT IS STILES' REAL NAME, we may never know.]

I guess 'Scott' is pretty easy at least.

What can I say? I needed the target practice.

[Grinning. And should you wonder what tiny Rose looks like, wonder no more]

You have a friend? [Scott. You walked into that.] Well color me shocked.

[Stirring him of course. And it's Stiles Stilinski okay! What it works...]

A whole lot easier than Vasilisa. I also called her a fascist bastard... but to be fair, I didn't actually know what it meant at the time.

I can see that.

[He's thinking about jokingly bringing it up to Stiles. Let me throw books at you it's for target practice.]

Yep. [He really did walk straight into it.] I know, I was surprised, too, when I realized.

[Wow, Rose makes him laugh a lot. It's kinda great.]

Does it still apply now that you do know?

[Why joke? I get the feeling if Rose met Stiles she might ask if she can use him for target practice some time.]

I'm glad to see you came to terms with it. Just don't go making a habit of it.

[She pauses, thinking that over, still trying to hide her smile.]

Of course, clearly this means we can't be friends, because I wouldn't want to overwhelm you or anything.

[Comedy. It's her go to and Scott, you get bonus points for letting her roll with it and for being amused.]

Hrm. Yeah pretty much. Though I probably would have gone with something a little less... intelligent sounding I guess.

[For a second, Scott is stricken. Then: oh.]

I don't know, I think it's happening already. I'm not sure we can stop it.

[Now grinning.]

Besides, I think I could handle it.

[He shrugs. Maybe. POSSIBLY.]

Hey, at least you were ahead on English vocab!

Well then. I think we're just going to have to accept that you're doomed.

[Her own smile widening.]

You sure about that? Last chance to back out. After this point I take no responsibility for any break-down's that occur on account of my overwhelming awesome.

[Rose practically beaming now. She could remember the last time she made a new friend, well not unless you counted when Kate had to bribe the hospital staff to get her let out of there and that involved a handcuffed perp walk..]

Right! It kinda stalled after that though. I only really paid attention during the classes that involved hitting.

[Definitely nodding solemnly.]

I think I'm prepared to face the consequences.

[Scott thinks the last time he actually had a conversation about being friends was probably with Stiles. It's kind of endearing on Rose's part.]

That sounds like my school experience, except we didn't have as much hitting in classes.

[Or like, any, unless you counted gym.]

[She'd be a little touched if she had a clue what you were thinking but she could only read the mind of one person, not everyone. Yeah. It was a thing.]

Yeah well I went to a...

[Friends, sure. But when did they become 'secret sharing' friends?]

A... special, kind of... school. Kind of like military school. In a way.

[It sort of worked. She did train how to become a soldier, of sorts.]

Wow, that explains a lot.

[And no like, in a bad way. Rose just seems tough.]

Yeah it was... Interesting I guess?

Maybe I'll tell you about it some day.

[Which, strangely enough, was Rose's silent way of acknowledging that maybe, she'd even be willing to tell Scott the truth. Maybe.]

I wouldn't mind hearing about it, so, you know.

Someday works.

Well you say that now but when I start telling you the stories about the Hermit Crab and The Hamster, you might change your mind.

[Yes, yes she did use humor to distract from the real reason why she might be hesitant to discuss things.]

[OOC: Of course all these secrets mean that these two need to chat during the honesty event!]
