it's not that hard to ask for advice, is it? even the hero of love can be at a loss sometimes. besides, it's not like you ever had to deal with a situation like this back home... admitting you need help isn't like you're throwing that title away or anything. you can do this!

there's this friend of mine i don't even

I wasn't her - dammit...

I could likely figure some sort of advice, but I'm sure you wouldn't want it from me, eh? Still, I suppose it doesn't hurt... It is Dagger after all... Just ease around it sort of slowly. You could tell her, through words or through song (you play piano, right?), and she might push you away even more, but then that's your chance to come around.

... you seem like a good guy. Admirable Just my two cents. Like it or throw it out the window; at least it's something.

[pianistofraieln]

ah- no, but it's easier than saying "not-quite husband, it's complicated" especially when she didn't give me the whole story.

[pianistofraieln]

you're not really hnn...

i don't think i should make it a secret that i'm not really fond of you, but you did manage to win her heart once, that much i know. so your advice is worth something. i'll take whatever you're willing to give.

[megido_flame]

Just be there for her, for now. There's nothing better than someone who can stand by you, support you, even if silently. Let things go as they would, don't force anything. I'm sure just being a strong friend will help her through this time of difficulty.

[pianistofraieln]

yeah...

i'm kind of starting to feel like it's just not enough to just be there for her, though.

[megido_flame]

Well, I don't know what else you can do other than support her as best you can? But, sometimes when it dosn't feel like it's enough, it's all they need at that moment, that they know you are there whenever they will need you.

[pianistofraieln]

yeah, i don't know either...

but if it's all i can do, then it's what i'll do.

[windupnarcissus]

It blows my mind that my brother commented on this!

That would be like me commenting on it!

[pianistofraieln]

...you just did comment on it, kuja.

[windupnarcissus]

Well, obviously I have no shame. Zidane should know better.

[pianistofraieln]

...i can't argue that.

[portugesegent]

Why are you making it so complicated, You already slept with her. Don't make it more complicated than it should be.

THAT ISN'T WHAT HAPPENED! HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU?!

i knew i forgot to do something...

[loopmein]

You're talking about Garnet...?

Well, from what I've seen... She's fairly humble. Not sure if she's into material things, really. Acts of kindness are more likely to reach her than anything else. Actions speak louder than words for people like her.

Given the sort of situation she's just come out of, I would highly discourage you from making any declarations of love anytime soon. Just let her know you're there for her, okay? She probably won't talk unless if you're someone she can absolutely trust, and after the kind of thing she went through, she's... probably not feeling so trusting of other people right now.

And if you ever think about hurting Garnet like that as well, God help me that I ever do something that I probably, in all honesty, won't regret.

[pianistofraieln]

i would never! the last thing i ever want to do is hurt her! she's the most amazing person--i could never forgive myself if i hurt her!

2/2

[pianistofraieln]

i thought it'd be a bad idea to tell her... i guess i'll just keep doing what i'm doing...

i just wish she'd talk to me more.

Many would say that about the ones we love. But times and people change. So do their feelings for each other. Garnet's like a sister to me. If she's hurt, you're going to have a very unhappy Big Brother to deal with.

There's a reason she's not very talkative. Zidane really has no idea what she went through after he broke things up between the two of them. I'm not sure, for all I know he still thinks things are honky dory. Haven't been able to bring myself to talk to him after the last time.
