He merely starred at her for a moment, unable to really react to that. Just...wow, that had never happened before, today was full of so many firsts, good firsts, but, that one was a little intimidating. After all, what...what was he without his strength? Just a person to be disliked really, he knew that, it wasn't a surprise to him how the other's felt.

"I...ugh, really Nepeta, well I never..." You never Equius? You should have guessed she would pull roleplaying into this, she always did when you both were alone, it was a given.

There really was no need to ruin such a perfect moment such as this.
