guessing you didn't see the video he made about valentine's day date tips?

[pidge_out]

[Oh. Hmm. To troll or not to troll.] no, why?

1/2

[marmoron]

[...]

okay if you haven't seen it i don't want to talk about it

2/2

[marmoron]

[..............

But after about a minute.]

you don't think i'm totally hopeless do you

[pidge_out]

[Dammit, Keith. How dare you make it hard for her to tease you right now.]

i wouldn't say that

you've got that like, emo bad boy thing going on

[marmoron]

"emo bad boy thing"

[????????????????]

[pidge_out]

yeah you know. tall dark and handsome but also looking like you could be the guitarist in an emo punk band [Holy shit, Lance is clearly rubbing off on her.]

[marmoron]

[... Well alright, he had no idea Pidge thought those things about him so that's news, but.]

ok but i don't like those bands
and i'm not emo

[pidge_out]

[Objectively speaking, Keith, you are a handsome boy. And you have dark hair. And are taller than her. So yeah.]

well some people do

and you're broody. it's emo enough

[marmoron]

i don't brood either

[pidge_out]

keith i'm pretty sure you're brooding right now

[marmoron]

[You don't see his arms folded or the pout, Pidgeon!! How can he possibly be brooding?!]

how is this something worth brooding over?
look in any case
i think lance's video might have been a secret plea for you to get a manicure

[pidge_out]

you're brooding over me calling you emo

[Don't try to deny it. SHE CAN SEE YOU IN HER MIND'S EYE.]

oh really? what makes you say that?

[marmoron]

no. you think i'm brooding over you calling me emo. there's a difference.

[Hmph.]

it's because he started talking in excruciating detail about how uncomfortable hangnails and broken nails are during sex
between the two of you you're definitely the one with the hangnails

[pidge_out]

[He obviously can't see her, but she snorts and coughs back her laughter.] i'm not sure what to think of you assuming that i'm the one sticking my fingers into sensitive places

[marmoron]

[/SQUINT.]

so you did see the video
also i wasn't actually thinking that so much as you putting your fingers around
you know what never mind
just don't be surprised if lance shows up to netflix with a black eye

[pidge_out]

keith

i haven't seen the video

[Except of course she has.]

what else am i supposed to assume when you say "hangnails during sex"

but explain why him divulging facts about OUR sex life would lead to YOU giving him a black eye. sounds like i should be the one doing that

[marmoron]

[Mistrust. Rising.]

i don't know and i don't want to know what word associations come to mind with your sex life
and it's because he made me the poster boy of cluelessness, ok?

[AFTER HE HELPED LANCE FIND HIS DAMN ENGAGEMENT RING, TOO!!!]

[pidge_out]

[You should always trust your local Pidgeon, Keith. Always.] ok and how did he do that? [Let's hear it from your own mouth (so to speak), fearless leader~]

[marmoron]

cuz he was talking about people who needed help on valentine's day and showed a picture of my face on the screen that's how


[GRUMP.]

[pidge_out]

[Sorry, Keith. But she's giggling. Because it was funny.]

dude
don't even start trying to deny that you're not good at this stuff
we both suck at it

[marmoron]

i don't see you getting called out

[He's not miffed at all. Really. After a couple of seconds, she'll get another message.]

and i wasn't going to deny it
just didn't want attention drawn to it either
nervous enough about valentine's as is without lance's help

[pidge_out]

i must be getting a pass for being his girlfriend

[ But speaking of Valentine's and special plans.... ]

i'm sure you are.
since you're going out with the Princess and all

[ NOT THAT HE TOLD HER OR ANYTHING.... ]

[marmoron]

[Good thing this is all text because otherwise he might've grumped about ring shopping also qualifying as a pass. Or at least that it SHOULD qualify as a pass. This one is not salty at all or anything...]

exactly
the pressure around valentine's is bad enough
it just has to be ten times worse when your date is a literal princess








wait..
did i tell you about that?

[pidge_out]

oh i don't know keith did you?
