Hey, you've reached Hanna Cross, paranormal investigator extraordinaire!

Leave a message and I will totally get back to you as soon as humanly possible. Which will be soon. Ish. Awesome, thanks!

Huh, I guess you're right. But it makes sense! I am fourteen now.

You're still going to love me when I'm all grown up, right?

[Hanna can't help but laugh at that, shaking his head.]

People aren't like puppies, Vriska. You can't just...get disillusioned once they've grown up. Besides. I hear kids get cuter with age.

I don't know much about puppies. And I was just kidding around, you know! But I still hope you don't get sick of me.

Oh...There's just this horrible thing that people give dogs away once they grow up because they're not cute any more. [He doesn't do that, obviously, since he still has Daniel, but...]

But I'm never going to get sick of you, promise.

Me neither.

[she lightly tugs a strand of his hair before starting another braid, contentedly snuggling closer]

Even if you are more like a puppy than me.

Am not. [Excuse you, what is that supposed to mean, Vriska?]

Yes you are! You're optimistic and affectionate and all that shit. You're way better than a puppy, though.

If you say so. [He's still pouting. Not a puppy.]

Okay, okay; you're nothing like a puppy at all. What do you want to be like?

Can't I just be like a Hanna?

You're definitely like a Hanna.

Good, I like that one.

And you know I didn't mean the puppy thing as an insult, right? I didn't mean you were annoying or weak or childish or anything.

Vriska, I'm the one who said it first. I'm not offended, I was just pouting to pout. [Or rather, to be a bit of a brat.]

Okay, good! I don't want to fuck up your self esteem even more.

You know...it's actually gotten a lot better.

Have I helped?

Mmhmm.

Haven't you noticed?

Sometimes, but I didn't want to jinx it.

[she stops her braiding for a moment to sag against him]

You've done a lot of stuff to help me too, you know.

You won't jinx it. I'm a little fixed. Not completely, but....its a work in progress.

[He cuddles her, trying not to shake his head too much and mess up the braids she had put in his hair.] I know...Aren't you proud of yourself? It was mostly all you.

I am if you're proud of yourself, too.

I am, don't worry about that.

Then I am proud of myself! I love helping to fix you.

[they weren't moirails, true, but she couldn't help but see it as part of her purpose in their relationship]

And I don't know if you help to fix me-- or maybe you do? Do I need fixing? I don't even know, haha!

But you do a ton of good stuff. All the time; every day.

Naw, you just need some learning is all. To help you understand culture better. It takes a while since there's a lot to learn.

No kidding! You guys are way more complicated and confusingly contradictory than you look. That's why meeting halfway is probably a good idea.

[she pulls herself up off of Hanna to start braiding again, taking a moment to lean in and press her nose against his forehead, near the hairline]

I like your hair.
