sunday morning ~5:14am, after the earthquake

[imaginist]

Did anyone else feel that?

[...] I'm going to Research.

I was surprised by how much I missed mine for those few days. Even the lie detection. I didn't feel like myself without my powers.

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

Having Crysta's powers instead probably didn't help either.

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

That had its upsides, at least. I better understand now how harrowing Crysta's daily existence is. [...] And I got to see your cellular structure.

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

Is it weird?

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

There is no one in the world like you. [...] Probably. I haven't seen everyone in the world.

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

Don't look too hard. I like being special.

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

Any looking I do is purely out of scientific interest. [...] Does it ever bother you that I like your mutations?

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

[...] It used to bother me a little. I felt like you were only interested in me as an experiment.

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

Well. That was probably true at one point in time.

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

I mean, I know. [...] I realized I was in over my head with you pretty fast.

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

How fast?

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

Definitely by the first time you tricked me into going on a date with you.

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

Your judgement really is appalling. [...] I did think if you honestly hated it, you would've told me to stop.

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

That wasn't the problem. I wanted it to be real.

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

Ah. [...] And you were exasperated because I'd told you I don't do serious relationships.

Enoch/Raine

[rainbowfish]

Something like that, yeah. [...] Mostly I felt like an idiot.

Enoch/Raine

[imaginist]

You're not. We You never Before, I

[...] This is real to me.
