[for how much razlo has denied the mere suggestion of having flirted with anyone recently, this feels... a little bad! wow, rejected because he's wearing liv's face??? he figured that'd make it even more attractive for vash.]
[Vash... can't help but feel like he's got the wrong idea, but he has no idea how to put that concern at ease when Razlo doesn't give him much to go off of.]
It just doesn't feel right, doing that without him being in the know. That's all. It's not a no, just a... not right now, I guess.
It's whatever. Ain't a sappy feelin's guy like Liv, anyway. So unless y'wanna go apeshit outta nowhere again -- [it's not like he LIKES you, vash!!!!! god!!
he huffs and folds his arms, leaning away slightly. forgive him his titfit.]
Just don't get why I'm damn near him 'n not different enough at the same time.
[Oh, his face falls. He draws into himself, arms around his knees. He hadn't ever considered this possibility, so why is he upset that its now come and gone.
He won't let Razlo go around thinking so poorly of himself, though.]
It's because you are different, Raz. Just... you mean something to Liv, more than any other person. Sometimes positive, sometimes negative. It's more than going up and kissing a stranger, y'know. I'd do the same if... if
[Ugh, he doesn't want to bring up Wolfwood now of all times.]
If someone else you two grew up with in the orphanage wanted something from me, I guess.
[ugh, of course the plant doesn't know when to stop. when has he ever left well enough alone? though despite his annoyance, razlo doesn't continue walking away, or lash out, at least not physically.]
He's -- everything. [and maybe he's realizing that trying to hit on liv's significant other is just a tiny bit fucked up.] ... It was a stupid impulse. Won't happen again.
[... sorry, vash. you made him actually pause and think about his feelings, and now his skin is crawling. razlo crosses his arms and looks away pointedly.]
[Well, that's about all he needs to hear. Vash lets his arms drop, his shoulders slump in defeat. He gives a little nod before... just quietly trudging away.]

B-but... Did Liv say it was okay?
no subject
Fer you t'kiss other people? Yeah, y'all had a whole conversation about it. Even I remember that shit.
no subject
[It's different, right? Now Vash isn't so sure.]
You and him... I don't know, that feels like it might be a boundary. And I don't want anyone getting hurt.
[His lower lip juts out. He saw the way Razlo's face fell, thank you.]
Even if I would like to make out!

Damn, I see how it is. Forget it.

I didn't grow up there. Didn't "grow up" anywhere. 'n you don't -- know what I am or not to Liv. Forget it.
[talking about feelings is hard and stupid and raz doesn't want to do it. he rises to his feet and paces over to the river and along the bank.]
no subject
But here he is, standing up and following after him. He stands beside Razlo at the river, before finally saying:]
You're right. I don't know what you are to him. And what he is to you. That's why I want to talk first.

Do you want it to happen again?

[He nudges Razlo with his elbow.]
What about after?
no subject
Ain't talkin' about this anymore.
