What? No! [GOD DIPPER THAT'S JUST RIDICULOUS, though, admittedly, Peridot is having a hard time explaining it herself.] I'm scared of her just... just... leaving! Like everything we've been through together doesn't matter.

[krmvgivv]

Leaving Wonderland? You know that's not her call, right?

[slapfight]

Leaving our shared space and going... somewhere! Wonderland is surprisingly large and Lapis can hide wherever she wants. It's not like she needs things.

[krmvgivv]

Okay, okay, look.

[He puts his hands on her shoulders, trying to steady her somehow.]

Is there any reason to think she'll do that? Like, you haven't been fighting lately or anything, right?

[slapfight]

Um... No?

[She presses her fingers together.] But I haven't exactly been honest with my feelings lately.

[krmvgivv]

Oh. [Well, this is... complicated.]

Look. You might... have to talk to her. Be honest. But like, not cause an event forces you to do it.

[Which might be too late with this musical stuff going on. But hey, she can try.]

[slapfight]

So it's okay to avoid her until it's over?

[She's gonna do it regardless- and it will fail- but at least she has permission from an Actual Human who knows what feelings are.]

[krmvgivv]

[Dipper's pretty sure that's not the advice he was giving.]

...are you going to actually talk to her afterwards?

[slapfight]

[shifty-eyed.] Um... Yes.

[This is in no way a lie.]

[krmvgivv]

....yeah, I'm not okaying you avoiding her.

[Not that she's likely to actually listen to him either way.]
