Let's go to the bar tonight?

MARGO HANSON & MAX GUEVARA

Also, can I take a moment to complain and you all not hold it against me?

LANCE

First day after we leave port, do you want to go to the spa with me?

BRAKEBILLS ALUMNI

I had a thought.

	You know I'm not going to hold things against you. What's going on? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Spill it, Quinn. Who do I need to eviscerate? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Evidently, Allura's got a thing for Shiro. And felt he needed to know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	First of all, I can't blame her for having a thing. Secondly, I can blame her for feeling the need to say something while he has a girlfriend. Thirdly, I'll be happy to talk to her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, I can't blame her either. That's where my issue comes in. It isn't like she didn't know about us. Lance made sure everyone knew about us. So we can't give her the benefit of the doubt. So I don't really know what her endgame was. No. I don't want to make things difficult for Shiro or weird with the Paladins. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Look, I realize I'm the last person to talk about fidelity — particularly with you — but there's only two options for endgame. Shiro admits he has feelings for her, and you break up. Or she's attempting to get closure by getting confirmation that he doesn't like her in return. It's easier to move on when you know.

The trick is finding out how she's behaving after being rejected.

	I hadn't considered the second option. I've been pretty fixated on the first because, well, it is where my mind immediately goes to. [...] I feel like I can be more forgiving if it is that second option. It's going to be difficult to figure that out. I rarely ever see her. And I don't necessarily want to see her now.

	Personally, I don't think you have to see her if you don't want to. It's completely understandable to chill out on those sorts of encounters if you know about them for a while. Even if she's just attempting to get closure, it's kind of a shitty way to get it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I sort of do though. She is part of Shiro's team and they are his family. Eventually, I am going to have to see her. Otherwise, I'd be being unfair to Shiro and I don't want that. But staying quiet and pretending like me and her are all good doesn't feel right either.

But then I wonder if I have a right to not be good. I don't know.

Yeah. It was. Forget me for a second. It was incredibly unfair to put him in that position.

	I didn't mean forever. It's not like all of us, there are so many here that you can avoid forever, but just for a bit. You could just talk to her about it and be up front. Say it wasn't cool, and you're gonna be cool, cause of Shiro, but you didn't think it was good to do. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm gonna be real here: it's not the second option. It's never the second option. Even if it turns out in the end that that's what a person needed, that's never why someone does it. They want to be the one chosen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, I didn't honestly think it would be. Dammit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We all want to be chosen, and honesty in this case is not the best policy. But maybe they have different rules on the planet she comes from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mhm. I don't want to seem insensitive to her feelings but that's it precisely. I've had plenty of crushes and not said a word. Maybe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Personally, I'd do it, but I'd also be sure before doing it. Possibly with blackmail, but most people don't think that far ahead. (Reply to this) (Parent)
