idk how my autocorrect got 'people' out of 'pillow' but ok

[ Don't mind the hint of red that lines her cheeks at the mention of the shower stall. Her eyes flit down to the pillow laying in front of her before returning to his back. Every time she'd had to look at the broken stall then it'd brought to mind her shame... Not that she did actually find what had transpired shameful. In fact, it was kind of liberating in a way to let loose like she had.

Like she was doing now. Self-restraint is just something she needs a little practice in. Self-restraint and not worrying so god damn much about what it all means. Or if it means anything. ]

Not like there was much else to do in that place, you're right. I kind of... sort of... made out with Star-Lord too but that got weird.

That's a whole nothing thing though. So are you guys like... officially a thing, or. What?

people are pillows tbf

Ah, I knew he would try to fuck you.

[that much was obvious, and nurumi's a beautiful girl — if a little on the thin side (he couldn't say much about it, with risk of being a hypocrite at the time). that doesn't mean quill was ever going to get there, if the entirety of block one had anything to say about it. there were a lot of things up in the air, in the months he spent in that horrific place, but hiruma enjoyed setting aside time for threatening suitors.]

He seemed like the flaky sort from the get-go, but that's how all heroes tend to be. They fuck everyone in their lives over by being selfish enough to want both a life of crime-fighting and shit like love interests.

[see: hiruma breezing right over the last question out of absolute uncertainty.]

Never trust men, we're all pieces of shit.

this is a valid point

[hasitsthorns]

[ SPUTTERCOUGH. Ah, yes. Leave it to Hiruma to keep it blunt. ]

I guess it was pretty obvious. [ She was moon-eyed for the dude, anyone could have seen that. ... But it's almost relieving to hear, for whatever reason, that not everyone thought Peter Quill was as great as she'd made him out to be. That maybe it wouldn't have worked as well between them as she imagined it might.

She still thinks he was - no, is - incredible, but that's her. Idealist to the end. ]

Speaking from experience or just got a thing against dudes who like saving their world? [ Universe, in Peter's case. ]

Are you saying that I should find myself a nice wholesome woman to settle down with instead? [ Because she's not actually opposed to that idea, if the right one comes along.

And don't think she didn't notice that question being skipped. That's an answer in and of itself and she'll be having words with Jesse about it soon. ]

;)

Heroes are just idiots keen on dyin' early.

[at least, that's his opinion. every single one he's had the displeasure of meeting has had some overbearing morality they feel the compulsive need to cram down people's throats. hiruma guesses quill wasn't exactly the picture of god-sent anti-sinner, but — he's a guardian of the galaxy.

that has to come with quite a few pious musings.]

Nah, go find someone who makes you wanna' be a better you. If that's a woman, fuck it.

[he doesn't even realize that's some quality advice.]

[hasitsthorns]

[ Considering Rose herself falls into the hero archetype in some respects, she supposes that's a fairly true statement. ]

A better me, huh? [ Sometimes, Rose wonders if she'll ever be 'better' than who she is now. Everyone always seems to be striving towards something more and she's no exception. Yet it all kind of starts to seem like hamsters running on a wheel. Going going going absolutely nowhere. ] That sounds nice. I've only known a few people like that, but... who knows. I'm sure I'll come across more.
