Hey. You wanna get some ice cream?

[ She doesn't really sound excited about it. ]
ichoosefight: (upside-down time)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-16 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
By the scoop or by the pint? You choose.

[ She'll probably eat a full pint either way. ]
ichoosefight: (casual glance)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-17 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Good point. I guess we're gonna find out if they sell cookie dough ice cream by the gallon.

Should I get you something too, then?

[ She accepts the challenge of eating one gallon of ice cream before it melts. ]
ichoosefight: (no fists this time)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-18 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Doesn't make much difference to me.

[ She just wants to eat ice cream and remember that there are nicer people in the world than Tim Drake. ]
ichoosefight: (better)

Be there soon.

[ And so she is, carrying one gallon of Neopolitan and 2 pints of Cookie Dough in grocery bags. The smile she manages when he opens the door is tired, but real enough. ]

Hey.
ichoosefight: (casual glance)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-21 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She follows along quietly, but he probably expected as much. She knows she'll have to explain at some point- she's not being subtle- and has been struggling to define what exactly she's feeling and why. Her mind is in a bit of a jumble after the talk she had with Minako.

She sets the ice cream down when she has the chance, but holds on to one of the containers of cookie dough. She's not sharing it. ]
ichoosefight: (that's it. done. throwing it away.)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-22 08:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks.

[ She holds the spoon in the hand she uses to pry open her container and immediately starts digging in. They should probably sit or something, but the sugar is already a comfort. ]
ichoosefight: (I can relate)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-22 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Steph huffs between bites at this behavior, but drops into the chair with no real protest. The ice cream stays hugged to her stomach, though, so she has the best possible leverage to scoop with. ]
ichoosefight: (clicking pens)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-25 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She has a few more spoonfulls, staring at the carton while mulling things over, before she slows down to just poking the ice cream with her spoon. It's another few moments before she finally speaks up. ]

Do you ever feel like... you're running around in circles? Like, you've been working so hard for all this time, but it turns out you're right back where you started?
ichoosefight: (Cass-- what are you doing?)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-27 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
[ Steph looks up, almost hopeful. She's in too heavy a mood to pay any attention to his antics. ]

What did you do?

[ Since he doesn't seem to feel that way now. ]
ichoosefight: (family game night)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-28 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Steph sighs, pushing her chair back and sinking down to rest her chin on the table. The ice cream stays in her lap, and she lifts her head just enough to take another bite before setting it down again.

What does she want? To not care about the approval of people she looks up to? To find an excuse that clears her conscience like a magic eraser? To be told it's okay that hundreds of people died, and she only made things worse? ]


Right now I just want to stop feeling like crap.
ichoosefight: (maybe one more night)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-28 04:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[ For a while she doesn't answer, still trying to figure out how to explain. It isn't because of the attack. It isn't even because of anything Minako said, not really. Hearing what sounded like 'she isn't strong enough to be a hero' hit pretty hard, but at some point she went from talking about the past to reliving it.

After a moment she turns her head on its side, staring at the wall without seeing it. What was it exactly that set her off? Talking about people misunderstanding? Good intentions? Being human? She feels like she's wallowing, and she hates it. ]


...I made a mistake a long time ago, and a lot of people got hurt. And... I don't think anything has really changed since then. Not in any way that really matters.
ichoosefight: (pout)

[personal profile] ichoosefight 2022-03-28 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She barely knows what's going through her own head right now. She unconsciously takes another bite of ice cream, and sits back in her chair to tap at the carton some more. ]

I was just... so desperate to prove myself. And I keep telling myself it doesn't matter, that I don't care, but the truth is I just don't want to know anymore what people think. After all this time, I'm still just running away.

[ She digs roughly into the ice cream, mad at herself for being so pathetic. ]
