Thomas’ hair whips in the wind as he pulls himself close to her.
THOMAS
I fall in love with people almost every day. I fall in love with people for stupid reasons. Sometimes I fall in love with people who hate me-- I don’t know why.
He looks to Marie.
THOMAS
But the point is, I get to feel that. Without reservation or remorse, I get to feel that for other human beings every day. And to know that you go through life… that you have to go through your life scared of what it means when you feel that way...
A beat.
THOMAS
I would help you slay a thousand planet monster things if it meant you never had to feel that fear again.
Rubi fights back tears.
THOMAS
Do it.
Marie stares at Thomas, unbelieving.

Marie stares at Thomas, unbelieving.
He’s a cool dude.
Still a goober, though.
A COOL GOOBER.
He’s a pretty good guy, for a goober.
Dammit! Stop making me like Thomas!
Heheh, Thomas just scored some major shipping points!!
With Marie if I’m not mistaken.
Woo I am all caught up! Thanks for such a lovely story so far. Took me ages to finally get to reading Ruby Whipple after not realizing Candi was done. Might want to do a bit of fanart. Have a great weekend!
Very well written
Thanks so much!
Intense. Pivotal scene here. I especially like the way you show the wind whipping everyone’s hair around.
It may be because my hopes just got crashed AGAIN as they always do, but I’m crying a little.
That’s romantic … now, how exactly do you want to help with slaying the monsters? By playing bait?
