[attr="class","matias"]what's left of the bottle is downed, soon replaced with another. he extends one to king as well.

"why would it be?"

matias knows why, and yet the question is still aired.

the fact that he forces king to say it out loud, nearly has him equal parts running for the hills, or breaking matias's jaw.
[break][break]
they both knew why. asking him to speak of it was...
[break][break]
he simmers the boiling anger, and places the bottle down and near his knee. his slouch was... tired, and worn. he was tired and worn.

[attr="class","matias"]they both know, and yet hearing it only confirms it, seals it.

"yeah."

but,

"i don't feel the same about her."

and yet he's yet to tell her.

"don't think i ever will."

"don't 'spose it'll really make a difference if ye do."

though, there's a dash of hope. a sliver of a thread of which he could hang himself from. but —— he gulps —— wouldn't that just make him second best?

[attr="class","matias"]"don't know."

he shrugs.

"doesn't matter much, anyway. even if i do love her, commitment isn't really my thing."

his head tilts towards king, gaze reading.

"seems more like your thing."

[attr="class","matias"]"what?"

out of everything that was said, that's what king decides to focus on?

the reaction isn't missed.

it's aggressive; almost predatory.

"what does it matter?"

[break][break]
king meets his gaze with a scrupulous look.
[break][break]
"she loves ye. ye love 'er. what the hell do ye mean 'what does it matter?'"
[break][break]
he suppresses the anger. arceus, it's so hard.[break][break]
"i'm not interested in bein' someone's second choice."

[attr="class","matias"]everyone's second choice.

matias doesn't bother suppressing his emotions. it's not anger, but likely something akin to annoyance.

"the fuck do you want me to do?"

he raises an eyebrow, his previous look turning into something of confusion mixed with the very same annoyance matias wore.

[attr="class","matias"]"fuck off, king."

the dismissal in his voice is clear as he turns away, scoffing as he raises the bottle for another sip only to find it empty. he sighs, dropping it to the ground.

"just tell her."

he nearly laughs. he doesn't blame matias-- he's probably doing his best to be supportive.

it could use some work.

"ye that'll go over well. 'hey sage, I know ye love someone else entirely but, maybe gimme a chance?'"

he downs his drink in one go. bitterness drowning bitterness.

[attr="class","matias"]it definitely could use some work.

"you never know. she could be in love with you, too."

he says this knowing she isn't.

"i don't know how to help you, man."
