[...what on...?]

V-chan...?

[It was three AM; wasn't that a little too early for sudden love confessions? And what was with all those empty bottles all over...? Oh man.]

Are you drunk?

I is workin'!

[Yeah, she's shitfaced.]

What in th' seven hells Yu? Why do ye have his phone?!

[She's slurring bad and there's some kind of stick hovering in the background. That might be a certain tonberry.]

[...really V? How shitfaced are you?]

Because this is my phone.

[Congratulations, you just confessed your love to the wrooooooong person.]

[Very.]

.......

[Have her peer into the camera and do a repeat of when he first gave her the phone: bang it on the table.]

Bloody thing dialed th' wrong number!

[No V, Leo does not have a phone. Poor Cuddles is trying to calm her down by hopping up and down but it's not going anywhere. Halp?]

Banging on it doesn't fix it.

[V, please don't break it...]

Are you sure this person even has a phone?

[The banging stops but the phone isn't showing her face. Instead, it's just Cuddles looking up at her in concern.]

He's a good person, one o' th' few who cares about me...sees me as all o' me.

[It starts to shake as one hand moves and showing more images of the living room she's in: a coffee table with an open book. The image can't zoom in on what it is but whatever it is, she wants to keep it well tided.]

...dunno. 'm surprised he actually cares about me. I can care less about him bein' a damn king either...

[That poor Tonberry looked so upset, Yu felt a little bad for the poor guy. He let out a yawn as he shifted how he was seated on the bed, rubbing at his eyes.]

Mm... another king?

And is it really that hard to believe you can gather friends, V-chan?

I ain't got no type!

[Blunt even while sloshed. Cuddles does look worried but only because if something were to happen to her, he'd be stuck. That...and she's a good person.]

...ye make it hard to.

[Oh V, you so have a type, and it was a bit adorable.]

Hm? How do I make things hard?

[Don't tell her that or be around her if you do. She can throw things hard. But again, the only thing Yu has to notice that something is weird is V'kebbe's voice and Cuddles' eyes trying to express some kind of concern. Speaking of voice...it's starts to crack a little, like she's holding back something emotionally.]

'cause ye don't like me! All ye see is ears an' tail! I wanna to be close like Phil an' me are with ye but I don't think you want it!

[That certainly isn't anger and Yu can tell when she starts sobbing like a young child, including the overexerted crying that could be seen in cartoons. The poor tonberry is trying to /soothe her by moving his flippers up and down but it doesn't look like it's helping much.]

...what?

[He wasn't awake enough for this conversation, and a hand went to his face, rubbing at his eyes to try and help him focus.]

Your ears and tail are cute, but they're not all there is to you. Of course I like you for the smart, daring person that you are.

[Really, the ears and tail were a bonus. And the fact that she could purr was an extra bonus.]

[You answered Yu. Now you deal with it.]

Ye don't show it.

[Nope still crying.]

Of course I show it; what else would you call the affection I've shown you?

[He knew it was probably useless trying to reason with a drunk. Still, he let out a faint sigh.]

I guess that's not fair to say... I have trouble figuring out how to talk to you at times.

[It'll be the most truthful she has ever been with him. Well, except the one thought of wishing she never came across his path that one night that made her change her mind on him.]

Ain't ye ever thought to just ask me things? Anything at all just to try an' get to know me? Besides, it's hard to get anything out o' you...

[Other than Loki and cats.]

I... know.

[Yu paused a moment, letting out a breath.]

...even with my friends back home, I'm quiet. I'm... not used to speaking much. Or having friends.

I'm th' same way.

[The crying slowed to the point of just sniffles.]

But even here I made some kind o' mates. Ye've seen me an' Phil, how we act around each other. Just get to know me. I wanna do th' same with you.

I'm sorry.

[Yu's voice was soft at that, a faint smile coming to his face.]

Let's do something, out in the city. Just... when you're sober. And it's not three in the morning.

...I'd like that.

[HICCUP. No, bad kitty. Go to bed.]

Go on; go to bed. I'll treat you to coffee tomorrow morning.

[He had a feeling she'd need it.]

Can't sleep.

[And coffee does not work on her. Phil tried. But he will get a humorous image of Cuddles behind her with what looks like a cooking mallet. Can he hit her?]

[...hunh. Maybe if he kept her distracted, Cuddles will knock her out. It wouldn't be very restful, but it might help a little.]

Do you want to talk more then; tell me about this guy you're in love with?

[What is that? Can you eat it?]

...when did I say love? Don't remember that part.

[She honestly doesn't know what that feeling is so her question is kind of legit.]

[...well, he got her attention.]

That sounded like a love confession to me.

I ain't got an inkling o' what love is. Do I look like th' type?

[She doesn't.]

[Yu paused a moment, considering.]

V-chan, explaining what love is isn't something that can really be done. It's not something really told, more like felt.

Um... you know it when you encounter it, I suppose.
