[ text | un: keith - fail anon ]

[tempredmental]

[So, not being the tech genius that Pidge is, Keith's attempt at making this an anonymous text kind of failed... So, have fun, guys.]

So how do you apologize to your girlfriend for walking in on her in the bathtub?

Comments

[pidge_out]

[OH KEITH...]

honestly, you should probably be grateful you're still alive

[tempredmental]

[OH KEITH INDEED]

Probably
But that doesnt answer the question

[He still doesn't realize he's not anon.]

[perfectteatime]

Say you're sorry and you didn't mean to?

I mean I could make a few other suggestions but that is wholly dependent on how intimate you two are.

[ text | un: keith - still failing at anon ]

[tempredmental]

I kinda already did that
But like I have no idea if I should do anything else

text - un:mikasa

[wrappedwarm]

you say sorry

[It's not that hard bro]

[ text | un: keith - still failing at anon ]

[tempredmental]

But is that it

I feel like
There should be more

[Wait... wasn't this the little kid that lived at Shiro's place?]

[spacebaloney]

GIRLFRIEND? 😮

[As always, asking the important questions.]

[ text | un: keith - still failing at anon ]

[tempredmental]

Yeah?

text; un: SongDiva

[songstressedout]

Surrender to your inevitable punishment, and get really good at apologizing.

[ Thank you for your wisdom, Yuzu. ]

[ text | un: keith - still failing at anon ]

[tempredmental]

Thats definitely on the list
Any ideas on what to do AS an apology

[amaure]

Forgive me, but if you both are lovers, I cannot see what there is in need of apologizing for. Unless the two of you have made some sort of vow of chastity? Or have the two of you not yet delved into such intimate acts that seeing one another in the nude is somehow taboo?

Regardless, if such an act was not purposeful, then a mere apology and explanation tailored to her standard should suffice. This is hardly aetherochemistry.

[ text | un: keith - still failing at anon ]

[tempredmental]

[Okay, give him a sec here, because that was a lot of text and fancy language, and not that he didn't understand because he wasn't stupid, it was just hard to focus on it all and, yeah... Okay.]

Were not at that point in our relationship yet
And I did apologize right away and left as quick as I could
Im just afraid of her being angry at me, I guess
She can be pretty intimidating

[ironchef]

[Oh my god, Keith.]

You usually just apologize.

Though it would have been better if you didn't tell everyone you saw her. -5 apology points.

[See, now even he's wondering what she looks like naked. And Hunk's never been someone that's particularly smitten by 'pretty' people, he's very much a personality guy. But now he's wondering if she's got spots in other weird places and that make him wonder if in another timeline she gave Lance spots in weird places and see? This. This is what you've done.]

[ text | un: keith - still failing at anon ]

[tempredmental]

Right right
I did that

The apology thing

What else

And shes not gonna know if its anon

[Get ready for embarrassment number 2.]

[crystalmaster]

Is she the type who would just stay mad and not accept that it was an accident?

[Radley really doesn't get girls like that. Or guys either.]

I mean, embarrassing things happen. I've had people walk in on me before. No big deal.

[Of course, he's not the type to be embarrassed about it....]

If you didn't mean to do it, she should let it go.... Or is it some kinda cultural thing for her where it doesn't matter if it was an accident?

[He doesn't get that kind of attitude either.]

[ text | un: keith - still failing at anon ]

[tempredmental]

I honestly dont know about the cultural thing
Thats part of what I'm worried about

Text, Private

[heartofalioness]

[So that... happened. Usually Allura is better about locking bathroom doors, but apparently this one time it slipped her mind. Honestly, Keith had beat such a hasty retreat that she wasn't even mad, just flustered. Heck, it had been her fault for not locking the door. But after hastily finishing her soak and getting dressed (because there was NO way she could keep relaxing after that), she turns her Gear's Do Not Disturb mode off and...

Oh Ancients.]

Keith. Darling. PLEASE tell me you meant to make that broadcast anonymous.

[fatefulprince]

I'm sure a normal apology would suffice. It's not as if you meant to, right?

[ RIGHT? ]

[ video | un: keith - might as well just own up to it now that he knows he's not anon ]

[tempredmental]

No! I didn't mean to. It just... happened. [GESTURE] And I apologized in the moment and left as quick as I could. But, I don't know... what if... uuuugh... doesn't help that I messed this up, too.

Text; + separate text to Allura

[nightyorb]

[Riz doesn't know shit about giving advice to people in relationships. It's why he had stayed out of Gorgug's issue with Zelda and Kristen and Tracker's spat as well. And those were two of his good friends! Keith he doesn't even know that well.

But he does have something to say.]

Well, maybe you can start by not posting about it on the crystalweb where she can see it?

----

[And after firing off that text, he composes a separate one, privately, to Allura.]

I can shoot him if you want me to.
It can be non-fatal.
Like in the dick or something.

[This is not advice. This is just a service offered to a friend.]

Private

[heartofalioness]

[Oh Ancients... Honestly, she'd prefer to be the one shot right now. Or at least buried deep.]

That won't be necessary, Riz. I was the one who forgot to lock the door. The two of us are already embarrassed enough.

[Honestly, he was very respectful about it.]

text; un: wanderer

[noamuth]

I recommend groveling.

[ video | un: keith - might as well just own up to it now that he knows he's not anon ]

[tempredmental]

Yeah... on my list. Any other ideas?

[shiro2hero]

I hear apologizing in person instead of online tends to work best.

But then again, I've never actually had a girlfriend to walk in on. ;)

[ video | un: keith - might as well just own up to it now that he knows he's not anon ]

[tempredmental]

You know I'm bad at this, Shiro...

The winky face isn't helping.

text | un: ulaz

[scalpelofmarmora]

I believe the correct way is to say that you are sorry. Accidents do happen.

[ video | un: keith - might as well just own up to it now that he knows he's not anon ]

[tempredmental]

Yeah... I did that. She seems to be okay?

[text] : private

[insidegalra]

[Thace isn't quite sure whether to laugh (and then feel a little guilty for doing that) or sigh heavily.]

I've modified my 'gear to make encryptions, private conversations, and effectively anonymous communication much simpler. Would you like me to modify yours as well? I believe the other question has been well addressed by now.

Re: [text] : private

[tempredmental]

Thats probably not a bad idea
Honestly I could ask pidge
But Im not sure if I trust her not to troll me at this point

text

[singlespacedad]

I don't see the problem

[ video | un: keith - might as well just own up to it now that he knows he's not anon ]

[tempredmental]

[Keith stared for a second before replying.]

You... don't?

late but still

[angewiesen]

She's upset about it?

[ video | un: keith - might as well just own up to it now that he knows he's not anon ]

[tempredmental]

Yeah... I mean... I think so? [Keith looked confused.] She didn't exactly sound happy when she yelped.
