Gabby leans into it some and enjoys the warmth given off by the other girl. “I don’t know.” She sighed and stop speaking for a moment.

"I don’t get why they always seem to pick me for these kind of treatments. I don’t see why they can’t bother someone else- or no one at all. I don’t want to talk about … him, and all they do is remind me about the fact he’s not here anymore."

Gabby looks up at the blonde, eyes with question in them. “Do you think I have a hero complex, Mona?”

"G-Go ahead, Rissa… I don’t mind it." 

She’s lying her head on the other girl’s lap, staring straight upwards at the ceiling like it was a book she could read. Gabby feels a little vulnerable ,at the moment, to be honest. There’s no reason to be like that, she tells herself- and yet, as she lies at 4 a.m on a raven haired beauty in pyjamas, Gabby definitely feels it.

Delicate hands begins to thread through her hair and she squeezes her eyes shut- bright blue headlights flickering and shutting off somewhere in the city.

It was a peaceful moment, with Gabby curled up with Karissa on the couch, feeling tried- but not exactly sleepy. Sure, she was sick and the other had insisted to take care of her but still- vulnerable.

"Karissa. Thanks for coming over."

(( hmmmmm protect plasma becoming canon is incredibly up in the air because it is very hard for me to push gabby into any romantic feeling atm. auga's death was more than devastating for her- it's the third time something like this has happened to someone she's loved dearly. 

she's still going through a lot of loss and is really not over it. she's kind of lost romantically to be honest if that's any way to put it. now, to answer your questions gabby/mona is a very potential ship. i think for it to happen, mona would have to become less violent and gabby would have to strengthen her character more and be sure of her feelings on things.

so, they're not canon right now- but they do have plenty of potential. that said, there are other relationships she might end up going into it really depends on what the future has to bring. ))

"Yes, actually- that'd make me feel better I think. It'd be way better than listening to any of the foolish things in my askbox."

Gabby massages her temples in an attempt not to go off again.

"Ohhh myyy Arceus. Okay, first off that is incredibly creepy- and jeez, no! Of course, I don't do that! We're friends!"

"I don't know where the fuck you got that from but, that is most certainly the dumbest thing I've heard all night- which is really saying something."

"Say that again, I dare you."

There’s a change in her tone from when she answered the other questions. There’s no ‘you’re probably right’ or patheticness to it she was trying, and failing, to hide from anyone. There’s nothing to it but a poisonous taste left on her tongue as she listens to the anonymous.

"You need to stay out of my business. You need to sit your pretentious know-it-all ass down and leave me alone. I’m sick and tired of these bullshit accusations about me and my life."

Pause.

"First, you have to question the fact I’m friends with Akio. Now Mona? Oh, oh right- because I can’t have a single relationship with someone I care for without being analyzed by you self absorbed grey-faced assholes." The words begin to spill past her lips and take up space in the room, filling it with an undiminished desire to be left alone. “Mona can defend herself- she’s a much stronger person than I am but, sometimes everyone needs a friend to help them out. That’s my relationship to her. I love her because she’s important to me - not because I have some need to be everyone’s hero or some shit.”

When she finishes, she sighs in irritation and shuts off her caster.

"See? See? Listen to Mona, right now. She gets it. Akio shares no likeness to ... him. So, uh, fuck right off, Nonny!"

Gabby hides her face in her palms for a second or two before looking back up at the anonymous with a hurt, but angry, expression.

"I’m not lying to myself! They’re not the same person and they never will be. Just go away, I don’t want t-to talk about this. Just leave me alone!”

" … "

Gabby fell silent for a while- a dark expression came onto her, stiffening her limbs, a barely hidden glare in her eyes and a tinge of almost saddening desperation in them too.

"That.. That’s not true. That’s not t-true at all..!" She sounds pained and her choice of words adds to the effect, "Just because they happen to look alike doesn’t mean shit! We’re good friends- that’s why we hang out a lot for Arceus’ sake."

She stops and stews for a moment before finishing up with a sigh and a muttered, “And fuck you too.”, under her breath.
