five paintings burned (and one girl kissed)

[thehangedrose]

[Filtered away from Rapunzel]

[Well, this is awkward. The fairy ball was nice and all, and he remembers having a lot of fun, but he needed to set things straight. What happened with Rapunzel...that was the fault of the fairy wine. Totally. He wouldn't do that with a girl (even if she is a lovely and very cute girl) if he had been in his right state of mind, and the more he thinks about it, the more embarrassed he feels.]

[So he opens his journal, gulping in a breath of air before he starts speaking with a nervous sort of waver:]

Um.

Let's say a person got a bit too drunk on magical wine and sort of...well, kind of kissed a girl they only met a day ago. Actually, kissed twice, now that I think about it...

Anyways, what do you do to apologize in a case like that? Because, I mean, a kiss...that's kind of a big deal, isn't it?

[He drifts off after that, unsure what to say, before ending that filter and writing in another one.]

[Filtered to Rapunzel]

Hey....um.

Is it okay if I come over? I just have something to say...about last night.

[A moment of silence goes here before he closes the journal, way too uncomfortable to elaborate.]

That depends! Was it her first kiss?

[thehangedrose]

Um!

I...don't know, actually.

What, is it different if it was?

[OH GOD WHAT IF IT WAS spoiler it totally was]

FILTER FOREVER

[ino]

[oooOOOOOHHH]

Well, did you like kissing her?

AND EVER

[thehangedrose]

Who said it was about-

[Well, shoot. Like using "that person" was ever going to work. He sighs.]

Well, at that moment I did! But, I was drunk, so...it wasn't like I was thinking clearly.

[gunslinger]

Pretty much gotta back up the other two on this one.

[ Well, partially. Other things they're saying are ridiculous... ]

It's not exactly the ideal way to make an impression, but all girls are different. Best thing you can do is just try to make it right, and offer to take her on a real date. She may or may not want to talk about it. Just don't pressure her for anything and be yourself.

[thehangedrose]

What if I'm not sure whether to continue things romantically with her? I mean, she's really nice, I'm not saying anything against that, but...I just think it's too hasty to jump into a relationship with her.

[amiable]

[ Wondering who it was!! And wow, she didn't think Garry was so bold like that. ]

I think it's important to talk to her as soon as you can!

filter

[thehangedrose]

[He didn't think he was, either. ;;]

That's exactly what I'm going to do! It's just that, what to say to her is the real problem...

Garry

[hairflyingheartpounding]

[Oh, gosh, Garry! Rapunzel's a bit nervous to talk to him, because, well... She wasn't really thinking clearly last night! But on the other hand, she really does like him; he truly does understand her so well. Oh, it's kind of a mess, and her head still hurts, too.]

Oh, uh... Yeah, sure. Come on over.

Rapunzel--> action!

[thehangedrose]

Alright.

[And he quietly shuts the journal before he blurts anything out, making it over to her door with haste.]

[Knockity knock knock on your door, Punzie.]

Fairy wine?

[thehangedrose]

Yeah, the stuff they served last night at the ball. It was pretty strong...

Dat filter forever

[whichwayyoulean]

...Wow, Garry, even I know more about girls than that and frankly, that's really sad.

Anyway, an apology probably isn't the way to go, you know? You apologise for punching someone in the face, or running over their dog, but not for kissing them. Unless you didn't mean it, in which case doing it twice was a really stupid idea.

ever and ever

[thehangedrose]

...

[sob he can't even argue against that HE IS THE SADDEST ROMANTIC LOSER EVER.]

But she was kind of drunk too, and what if she didn't mean to? I mean, she could have a boyfriend, for all I know. And I know!! But she asked really nicely the second time, and...

Filter

[fuckinghateadrenaline]

Did you sleep with her?

Filter

[thehangedrose]

[SO MUCH MENTAL KEYSMASHING AT THAT QUESTION, DUDE.]

NO! Goodness, no!!! I would never do that with her! I barely even know her!

Just a couple of kisses, that's all!

Filtered

[heal_theworld]

Well, if you apologize for it, that means that you regret it happened, or didn't want to kiss her at all. Which can admittedly be taken the wrong way.

...Do you regret kissing her, even if you were drunk?

Filtered

[thehangedrose]

I...I don't regret that I kissed her, persay, more that I did it while being drunk, which really isn't the best state to do something so forward like that!

Plus, she's really nice! And I barely even know her...which is why I'm feeling awfully confused about this, because if I had known her a bunch, then it would've been okay, I guess. But in only a day...that's way too far, isn't it?

Filter

[bezazzled]

[...This guy should meet Dipper. Seriously.]

If you want to apologize to her, here is what you say:

"I'm sorry."

Filter

[thehangedrose]

That's what I'm going to say! But I want to know what to say after that. Like, are there specific words one uses in this case?

Filter

[foolreversed]

...

...Was she hot?

[priorities here]

Filter

[thehangedrose]

...

[Somehow, he feels describing said girl as "hot" isn't exactly respectful to her at all.]

Um. She's pretty, yes.

Filtered, to end

[mispronunciates]

Ollo, Garry...

I, uh ... well. I guess it depends. Do you really want to apologize, or do you like the girl?

filtered forever and ever

[thehangedrose]

Oh. Hello, Megamind.

[A sigh.]...What if it's both?

filter, dictated, i'm so sorry

[whathedoves]

It sounds like a magical moment, my friend!

Except for the trouble about the alcohol, a kiss is a beautiful luxury and you should savor it!

Considering it sounds like you're concerned for this little lady - maybe you even like her a little, hm? I hope so - I think you should talk to her! I won't say you should play hard to get anymore, but you should open up your heart!

filter, dictated, no it's okay I LOVE YOU

[thehangedrose]

Magical...? Um.

Well, I don't think it's so beautiful when it was never meant to happen And I do like her, but really, why does everyone think I like her in that way! I'm kind of sure I don't!

Um. What if she hates me for opening up my heart? I mean, maybe she has somebody she likes a whole lot more at home, how am I supposed to know?
