That's pretty much all I ask. [It's not his business. It probably sounds weird coming from him, but he strongly feels it'll be good for both of them.] We never know how long we're gonna last here. Scary, isn't it? [It's something he's put thought into.] …but I know you that.

[So instead, he focuses on the other subject, making a show of rolling his eyes.] Anyway, you can believe it all you want, but I'm not the one dating him. […wait, shit.] Not that I would ever want to? I mean he's got good qualities and whatever but Jason's not really my type or anything. [Hiro stop talking.] The point is it's not me. We…have a really, really weird friendship, if you can even call it that. I might be really important to him, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't mean he likes me best.

[There's a pause though as those words sink in.] …then I guess that means I really have to go through with it, huh? He's…is he mad?

( there's a snort of laughter when Hiro starts to flounder, and even if he can see her on the video, she still reaches up to muffle her laughter into her hand. it would be impossible for her to not laugh at that, and it still takes her a moment to rein her giggling in. )

It's okay, I get it. You don't want to date my boyfriend, that's a good thing.

( teasing, teasing. )

Oh- Mm. No, he isn't mad. He worried, and think that just comes out easiest as frustration for him. But it'll be okay, I promise. Just try to be patient with him.

Not funny. [Muffling it doesn't help, Clarke, gosh. But he relaxes a bit because let's be real, he'd laugh, too.] But definitely a good thing. It'd be a total conflict of interests.

[But...sigh.] I'll be patient with him for however long he's patient with me. [Nah, he'll be patient longer. He's learning how to tame his bat-dad.] If this ends really, really badly though? You'll be the first to know. [A beat.] I'll call him tomorrow. I need to kinda think of how to approach everything.

A little funny, ( she argues, still the teasing edge in her voice in doing so.

even after talking to Jason, she still can't help but worry at least a little. she knows how easy it is for Hiro and Jason to clash. )

Okay. ( a beat. ) It won't go badly, though. I believe that you guys can talk it out without it turning sour. But um- Let me know how it goes, either way.

We'll see. [At least one of them believes...] I'll let you know first thing. Wish me luck...and maybe be extra-nice to him tonight to butter him up. Can't hurt my chances.

( that just gets her to start laughing again. )

Extra nice. You got it. ( when her laughter dies down, she gives her head a shake. ) Good luck, Hiro. I'll talk to you tomorrow.

( with that, the feed cuts. )
