why would you ever say that?

[Cosette is a robot.

And honestly, Eponine just wanted to see if she would snap one day.]


We're not. [Because that doesn't matter to her anyway. She and Montparnasse are just... It's extremely complicated and she's nowhere near sure. Together. Not together. Never together. Friends. Enemies. Married. Whatever.

Besides, it wasn't Montparnasse that had been over earlier this week. That had been Johnny, actually.]


You lack imagination. [But she was not giving Cosette any ideas about where to fuck Marius. If they were going to fuck, they could do it boring old vanilla missionary. So later, Eponine could blow his mind.

...Unless Cosette asked. Then she'd give her all the worst ideas. Because that's what roommates and besties did. And Eponine was certainly Cosette's bestie.

Pretend that she hadn't said something like that while vomming on Cosette's shoes as the girl in question held her hair back. Eponine certainly didn't.]
I don't know. Depends on how quick we get the swing and pole installed...

Oh, okay. [No further questioning there; the finality of that rebuttal says all she'd realistically need to know about Eponine's quasi-romantic trysts.]

Oh no, I just don't want to have to wash my sheets again so soon, that's all. [She starts packing a few things, mostly in the event that Eponine takes longer than just an evening with her not-beau.] I'll probably head over to Marius' will you shoot me a text when you're ready for me to come back?

[A slight pause as she looks over at the doorframe.] Are you sure the frame is sturdy enough for that? They'll charge us at the end of the semester for any damages, I think they freeze your enrollment until you pay.

'cause you don't have extra money for the laundry. [Muttered, bitterly. Wow, Cosette, you have to wash your sheets again. Boo hiss. Not like you were using them anyway.

She doesn't mention texting Cosette. The idea of her with Marius- ugh. Ugh ugh ugh. No thank you. She needed to get them to break up. She'd done it before, so what could be so hard about doing it again?]


No. That's why we're hooking them both up to the ceiling.
