[audio & as ever, action for Spades if they want it]

Hey - everyone - guess what?

So, at the end of the Navy ball thing, my arm got cut up a bit. Buuut now that's it healing, the cuts all cross over each other - I can totally play noughts and crosses on myself!

*Yes, Selphie actually giggles a little at this because, after all, isn't this amusing? Turning injuries into games? How hilarious!*

And and and, my dress didn't even get any blood on it - super bonus!~

[ETA: Excuse my UKisms - noughts & crosses is more likely known to most of you guys at tic-tac-toe!]

*Selphie presses her hands to her cheeks as though that will help get rid of the red colour. She appreciates that Chandra hasn't stared laughing at her yet, so she manages a small smile, though she still doesn't take her hands away from her face*

A banana?? Or...a toy? Like a toy ban - Oh wait. Nevermind...

*It took her a second, but she knows enough to know that Chandra didn't mean a toy banana*

Is that really something I need to try? I mean.. say.. say I did that with a guy.. They're meant to really really like it, right?

Uhm...and thanks but.. I don't think I'll need stuff for women...

[Now she does laugh, but it's a gentle thing, almost like a big sister.]

It's something most guys like, yeah. Makes them feel nice. But you never have to do anything you think might make you uncomfortable. That's part of it too, y'know.

[She crooks her fingers. C'mere Selphie, she's lazy.]

Because if you're uncomfortable, then nobody has a good time.

Right.

*She gives another serious nod, trying to take note of everything Chandra had been saying. She still looked a little serious when she moved to sit closer to her*

Okay. Comfortable, making him feel nice, him making me feel nice, everyone has a good time.

[She sits up now and leans back on her hands.]

Yep. That's kind of the point. It's supposed to be fun, Selphie. Especially when you use your hands or your mouth. You follow what I'm saying, so far?

I know it should be fun, and I really hope it will be. I just... I never knew it would be as complicated as all of this...

*She does, finally, a little bit, manage a smile. Then she takes a deep breath*

I guess I just need to...well, have the chance to try it all out now.

[Chandra nods.]

It's a bit overwhelming at first, sure. And if you're worried about it, well...like I said, I've got a toy I bought on the pirate island I haven't used. You're welcome to it.

What?!

*That just sets her off again and she plasters her hands against her cheeks*

Uh - I mean, I mean no thanks.. That's okay.

*Not to say she isn't a little curious about these toy things but.. Chandra, is it normal and ladylike to admit to having these things and offering to friends?! So embarrassing!*

Up to you.

[Chandra shrugs mildly and flops back on the bed. This is totally normal, Selphie is just weird.]

How's your leg feel, by the way? Tingly still?

Uhm..no. It's fine. You can keep it..

*Selphie blushes deeper, opting not to explain that she's hoping she won't have need for it. But yes - way too embarrassing*

Huh? Oh. Right. It's fine. Thanks.

...it really is good that the scar is gone. I can probably forget about all that much easier now...

Well, yeah. I mean...I've got my fair share of scars though. They're mementos of times I screwed up. But I haven't ever gotten one down there. Couple of guys have tried that sorta shit with me though.

I just - I just don't know what makes them think they can do that. Like that's...okay. To just do whatever they want to whoever they want.

*She balls her hands into fists on her knees, angry for both their sakes*

Yeah, they're basically the worst kind of people. The ones that tried that with me are dead. Deader than dead, really. But they never got that far with me.

[A hand reaches up to stroke Selphie's shoulder.]

Sorry you had to deal with that. And I'm glad I helped get rid of the memory.

*Selphie shrugs a little under that shoulder and breathes a sigh*

It's all over now. It feels like so long ago too.. Before you even got here. But - the scar won't remind me. And no one will need to ask about it or anything anymore. So thank you. Thank you a lot.

Hey...[She squeezes and nods.] It's no problem. Seriously, don't sweat it.

*Selphie gives another sigh of relief and nods*

But if there's ever anything I could do to help you out, or to say thanks for all your help, you just let me know, okay?

Sure, sure. Believe me, I will.

[Except not. Because Chandra doesn't talk about her problems ever.]

Pinkie promise?

*Selphie smiles and extends the pinkie finger of her right hand out to Chandra*

Pinky promise.

[Consider yourself to have been pinky-sworn, Selphie!]

Awesome! Good! That's what friends are for, right?
