It will stabilize here for a while, I think :|a Generally with Swift making it to color+5 is easy, going up a color is pretty hard.
He is really fond of her at this point. He completely dropped the affect around her a while ago, which is something he only does (UNTIL NOW, but bluh bluh character development) when you have both his affection and his respect. She keeps reminding him of his party--he's basically mentally placed her into that category--and at this point she's more Shirley than Moses, which is a lot of dere and protectiveness and admitted respect. She is one of the very few people he would actually talk to about shit that is bothering him. He will keep prodding her if he finds it necessary, and he will respect her choices and possible heroic imprudent decisions!! to an extent he does for almost no one else in Aather.
. . . there is also the kissing thread. Which. I covered mostly, but! He was actually telling the truth for the most part--he really didn't have any expectations--except then she MADE HER OWN CONCLUSIONS, and he could tell, and now he is thinking about it, thx Marine!! I doubt he will get anywhere without some outside prompting. Mostly he will just tsun.
OKAY GOSH LONGWINDED. Swift was extra sulky about Tavros because he was . . . semi-trying to help??? In his own Swift way? Because Tavros seemed pretty beaten down and Swift is just like god what is it with you Ruby people and your spinelessness and it was kind of sad! So he prodded for a bit and was kind of hurt when it was not taken well even if . . . REALLY HE KNOWS IT SHOULD NOT BE. This was only compounded by C.C. calling him out on being a big fakey faker who covers up his own insecurities, and bluh. He would have poked at Tavros more but for C.C.--he will probably leave him alone from now on out of deference to her.
. . . he is not really sure what to make of Ruby as a whole, except that there are a lot of people who CANNOT tell him that they just want him to get lost, geez. Obviously C.C. and Shade don't fit this pattern but he is just like :? Why are you inviting me to your cabin when I have been a dick to you 24/7, and then it did not go well so. He will be keeping his distance a while.
