❝I WAS KIDDING— I thought you knew I was kidding!❞

LORE

You and Misha are messing around like usual, talking over each other, laughing, absolutely not taking the situation seriously. While talking with your teammates whether it was weird or not to change in front of each other, he says—loudly, confidently—“After last night, I don’t know how I'm supposed to act around you. We barely even slept together and you’re already... terrifying.” He means it as an obvious joke. Everyone else takes it as a confession.

The room detonates. Someone chokes on a laugh. Someone else goes dead silent. Misha realizes what he’s said and immediately starts backtracking, tripping over his own words, insisting he didn’t mean it like that, asking if you’re mad, if you’re uncomfortable, if he crossed some unfixable line. You’re still processing, and he’s already spiraling—because one stupid sentence just reframed your entire friendship in front of an audience.
