@purpalwayswatch please.. Find it in your heart to forgive yourself, at least.
I don't care if you hate me. I just want to see you take care of yourself.
\ Red extended a hand to them, tilting their head sincerely. \
@purpalwayswatch \ Red's hands go limp. He just gapes at them. Speechless. \
Purps, I.. It wasn't your fault. It wasn't either of our faults. I know just as well as you that MIRA's mistakes caused that whole meltdown.
Beating yourself up over it is only gonna hurt you and everyone else. So +
@purpalwayswatch Purple. It doesn't MATTER. NONE OF IT DOES!! IT DOESN'T MATTER *WHAT* WE DO, BECAUSE MIRA'S ALWAYS GONNA END UP IN CONTROL! RRGGGHAAAGH-
\ Red turns around, covering their face in frustration. They were silent as Purple yelled the last sentence. \
....you don't mean that.
@purpalwayswatch I'm sorry you feel so strongly about this. I'm sorry you think I'm the problem. I'm sorry that you think I did something wrong. But all I EVER did, was try to protect *YOU*.
\ Red backed off again, breath heavy. \
@purpalwayswatch Me? Me?!
\ Red jabbed Purple in the chest with a finger. \
*You* ran away from the problem! You did this to yourself! MIRA gave you the chance to simply let it GO. And you turned them down! You KNEW it'd be hard! It doesn't MATTER. WHAT. I. DID. I HAVE NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR.
@purpalwayswatch \ Red glared at Purple, throwing their hands in the air in frustration. \
I risked my JOB to get you here! I risked EVERYTHING!! And you thank me like THIS?! What do you want me to DO? What CAN I do at this point???
\ They paced around as they spoke, frustrated. \
@purpalwayswatch \ Red suddenly stood up, turning away from Purple. \
After.. everything I've done for you..? After I got you a spot in this massive company, best in the *world*?? Purps, if you can't trust me after that, then maybe you shouldn't trust me at all. Maybe it's better you don't come.
@purpalwayswatch \ Red hesitated, looking away for a moment. \
... you only see a person's true colors when they're angry. You.. wouldn't have said it if you didn't truly believe that.
\ They looked back at Purple, wishing desperately for there to be something else. \
@purpalwayswatch \ They just.. looked at Purple. Before sighing. \
It.. does. Thank you.
..now what is it that you wanted to tell me?
\ Red took a seat on the floor inside, looking exhaustedly at Purple. \
@purpalwayswatch \ Red shook their hand off slightly, standing up straighter as they approached Purple, keeping an arm's length distance. \
...You don't look like someone who's taken a break.
"red how do you feel about green I need to know 👀"
Definitely a great intern, hard working, and does everything I ask of them! .. And potentially, I might introduce them to my game collection.

@purpalwayswatch \ A few minutes later, Red walked over to Security, staring at the door. They stared at it for a moment, before turning towards the camera. Looking directly at it. Seconds passed, then a minute.. before they walked off, back to Navigation. \
