maybe more so than knowing it i might have been hoping for it

[ That feels more reasonable to Chizuru. Imagining that she might know something without another person saying so themselves - it feels a little rude, and also presumptuous if she were to do so. ]

i really do not think i am smart enough to fully figure out what other people are thinking

[onebadapple]

Don't worry, I'm not smart enough for it either. But! That is why I ask directly. There's no room for misunderstanding that way.

Besides, you aren't in charge of what other people think, only what you think.

[tealeafs]

well the problem with some people is that even if you ask them directly they may not give you a direct answer in return
or they may just not be honest

he is definitely one of those people
despite seeming very straightforward i am fairly sure he has never once in his life been honest when he was fond of someone

[onebadapple]

Oh, I know those types.[Her stepmother and, to a lesser degree, Grumpy, were a lot like that.] But they do say actions speak louder than words.

Perhaps he felt he couldn't be honest without feeling teased.

[tealeafs]

[ There's a tiny pause before Chizuru replies, like she had to think for a moment here. ]

do you think he thought i was the sort of person who would tease him

[ .. it doesn't feel likely to her, given what Chizuru is like, but who knows.

Maybe she's missing something here. It wouldn't be the first time. ]

[onebadapple]

I think those sorts believe everyone is the sort, regardless of whether they actually are.

[tealeafs]

that sounds like it must be hard to live that way
constantly worrying about the worst from the other people around you
it sounds kind of sad

i am glad you are not that sort of person

[ Because it's so easy to tell that Snow White is just.. super nice to everyone. She doesn't seem like she could suspect anyone of anything even if she'd try! ]

[onebadapple]

Oh, no, I try to think everyone has the very best of intentions! If you have high expectations, I often find people rise to meet them!

[tealeafs]

[ Yes, that's definitely the impression Chizuru has gotten of Snow White - that first part, anyway. ]

thank you for always being so kind to everyone
it is really sweet of you

i think this place is a little brighter for sure just because you are in it you know

[onebadapple]

Oh, not at all. There is much too much cruelty in the world. So I do what I can to make sure there is kindness as well.
