It seems that Neopolitan still isn't managing to master the fine art of caring to be properly sociable. Still, the inbox does work, and she's known to respond fast enough, if she likes someone. So, at least there's that?
(OOC Note: 99% of all replies will come in the form of Text Messages unless Neo has a strong reason to send video messages. She might send pictures, but she prefers text.)

Date: 2022-01-20 06:10 am (UTC)Thanks for talking me down. Back to normal now.
I think I turned into the same thing Rose was turning into.
More soul magic.
But if you thought I was hot, imagine how fucking bad I had it for her.
1/2
Date: 2022-01-21 04:59 am (UTC)No eye damage, I hope.
The flower was pretty, but...
So, yeah, uh.
I could definitely see what got in under your skin with her physically.
Of course, you don't strike me as the sort who's just in it for looks.
So there's more to it than that.
2/2
Date: 2022-01-21 05:03 am (UTC)I might flirt a little bit, but I think you know I'll be waiting for mine forever, right?
I don't want to give the wrong idea exactly.
And I can admit sometimes waiting gets lonely.
[Though in truth, she was a little used to being lonely. The people she cared about had been gone from her life as often as they'd been part of it, really. Years apart at a time. There were just days that were easier than others.]

Date: 2022-01-21 05:22 am (UTC)A lot of that was the flower talking.
It wanted...
God. Hey, this is gonna sound fucking gross?
It wanted to breed.
I'm glad it's gone. I don't do that to people who have other people.
I'm no homewrecker and nobody who's challenged me on that has ever won.
No human, no alien sex flower.

Date: 2022-01-22 01:56 am (UTC)You don't seem to be the kind of person who flirts with someone in quite that sort of way.
And maybe it's a little gross, but I sort of get it. Plant a seed. Make more of its kind.
That's right. We're not homewreckers.
We're just a pair of sexy badasses, one of whom is currently recovering from flower-eye.
If I ever see that thing again, I'll make a note of it to get you trapped and under control.

Date: 2022-01-22 02:53 am (UTC)I've never been good at it.
The flower might have been an improvement.
Thanks. Hopefully you don't run into it again.
It may not be so easy to take down next time.
We got lucky.

Date: 2022-01-22 02:58 am (UTC)One moment we'd do these brilliant little games that were like out of some cheesy novel.
The next it was all awkward fumbling because we didn't have a clue.
Trust me, I sort of expect you to be awkward as hell about it. The flower's not better.
Such a thing as way too smooth if you ask me.
I'll take your word for it.
You were anything but easy in that form.
Power going everywhere like that.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-22 05:06 am (UTC)Except, well, she was always better at it than me.
That flower was just ready to feed on every last drop of blood it spilled.
And it was fucking good at spilling blood.
Was it actually smooth? I just thought it was trying to tempt you.
Felt weird having a body made out of flesh again that could actually do that kind of thing.
Man, no, I'm gonna stop. That way lies madness or whatever.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-23 01:53 am (UTC)But I was also always a little better at bullshit, which doesn't hurt when you're flirting.
Confidence goes a long way, and I was the confident one at first.
Yep, madness and insanity.
You're better off not thinking like a creepy space posy that infected your eye.
Yep yep. You are totally just good as is.
And this whole conversation is totally not awkward for us both.
Hah, we're both idiots, aren't we?
no subject
Date: 2022-01-23 06:14 pm (UTC)Once that stuff gets shoved into my brain it's pretty hard to forget.
Cool side effect of soul resonance. Don't recommend it.
You're pining for your wife. I'm pining for someone I never have a chance with again.
Sounds like only one of us is the idiot here, dude.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-24 08:44 pm (UTC)I would bet you almost anyone who was actually trained in that sort of thing would make bank here.
And be completely bogged down.
Hey, let me call myself an idiot too!
I don't thinking pining for the impossible is a stupid thing anyway.
It's just kind of lonely.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-25 12:55 am (UTC)I mean, I used to do host cafe work. You'd be surprised the kind of people who just wanna talk it out.
That's basically therapy. Didn't even have to bang anyone.
Yeah, well. Lonely's my middle name, far as anyone knows.
Getting better at it, don't get me wrong. Not gonna have anything desperate happen again.
But, you know.
Doesn't change fast.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-25 11:50 pm (UTC)I'm just not that good with people when it comes down to it.
It doesn't, but you'll figure it out.
And if you ever need to talk stuff out, I can make an exception on being a good listener for you.
You're already helping me out at the same time, after all.
no subject
Date: 2022-01-26 12:26 am (UTC)You don't gotta listen to my bullshit just 'cause I saved your ass from freezing to death.
Appreciate it, though.
Really trying to get better at it.
No reason to stay alone all the fucking time.
I might have a roommate now, for example.
