Don't think I haven't put it all together, I have!

[ Feferi is looking aggravated and distinctly tiaraless. ]

Thieving lobsters are the absolute worst. I'm all for cultural exchange, but this has gone too far! It's one thing to steal little trinkets from people, and give them to others-- but it's entirely different when you take away the marks of a girl's royal station.

You know who you are! You'd better bring it back if you know what's good for you.

Because otherwise? It's about to be time--

No, I'm being right, that's all. Good luck finding your dumb thing!

[mercuriousdevelopment]

No, you're wrong. It isn't a matter of whether or not you're a princess. The point is that you're a princess whether or not you have your trinket, so you do not require it to be a princess, or for "those that matter" to acknowledge you as such, so its value is based in sentiment.

[Don't you dare think of running away in the middle of a lecture, missy.]

[terribubblykoi]

I'm a princess so it matters more than just sentimentally because I say it matters, so there!

[ Because this is entirely flawless logic. She doesn't sound quite as adamant, however. ]

[mercuriousdevelopment]

You're being a brat.

[He's just going to. Casually point that out.]

[terribubblykoi]

[ Feferi is clearly flabbergasted by that accusation. ]

That's such a rude thing to say!

[ And true, but still. You don't just say things like that. ]

[mercuriousdevelopment]

[He's Waver Velvet, he says what he wants.]

But completely accurate. Your point?

[terribubblykoi]

That was the whole point, obviously. Sometimes you can be a little slow, you know.

[mercuriousdevelopment]

If you felt the need to point out the obvious for no other reason than to point out the obvious, I am not the slow one here.

[terribubblykoi]

You just have no manners!

[ And, of course, it makes perfect sense that it makes her laugh. ]

[mercuriousdevelopment]

[NO IT DOESN'T.]

I never claimed to.

[terribubblykoi]

Well, good, then that's settled.
