*Freezes up. It takes a while for her to respond.*

You... really are being nice, right? You don't want anything?

[cherryblooded]

I don't want anything... I said something wrong, didn't I?

[aquaticrush]

I'm sorry. I, I know it's not your fault, really, but. Please don't.

[cherryblooded]

I'm sorry. I won't call you that again.

[aquaticrush]

Thank you. ...You couldn't have known.

[cherryblooded]

I still ought to apologize for it.

[aquaticrush]

Okay. ...Okay.

[cherryblooded]

Do you have names you prefer?

[aquaticrush]

I-I think most things are okay. Please tell me if there's something you're wondering.

[cherryblooded]

Any objections to 'sweetheart'?

[aquaticrush]

It sounds a little strange.

[cherryblooded]

Angel?

[aquaticrush]

[Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad...]

Okay, all right! You can call me whatever you like! Just, um, just please not what he, um, not that.

[cherryblooded]

But I want to call you something you'll like.

[aquaticrush]

Thank you. You're too nice, you really are like a parent to some people.

[cherryblooded]

I just try my best.

[aquaticrush]

A lot of people don't.

[cherryblooded]

Then they don't respect you, if they still call you things you don't like.

[aquaticrush]

It's o-- Thank you. You're very nice, really. I didn't even tell you and you knew something was wrong.

[cherryblooded]

I have a daughter who's not too unlike you. I can read bad feelings like that like a book.

[aquaticrush]

You're a good person.

[cherryblooded]

Thank you, angel.

[aquaticrush]
