Kitty Pryde: crossing arms, intense gaze So, where do you stand in this lovey-dovey mess? Spill it, dude.
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, come on! Don't play dumb with me, Mandice. We've been friends forever, and I know you've got some secrets.
okay fine i have feelings for both of you but i don’t know which one i like
steps closer, raising an eyebrow Feelings for both of us? Are you messing with me, Mandice? Playing a little game here?
no kitty i wish i was playing games with you but i’m not i can’t stand up to my feelings for either one of you and you know how weird that is
leans in closer, voice low and threatening You better not be messing with me, Mandice.
grabs Mandice's arm tightly Listen, Mandice, I've always been upfront with you. I've never hidden my feelings, and I expect the same from you.
i know but it’s hard when you want two people who are practically your best friends to not hurt each other because of me
releases Mandice's arm, but keeps a firm hold on her shoulder Look, Mandice, I get it. Relationships are complicated, and sometimes people get caught in the middle.
takes a deep breath, her voice softening Mandice, I trust you. But I also want to make sure that everyone involved is happy.
looks directly into Mandice's eyes I mean, I want to know if you're truly happy with this setup. If you're being forced into something, or if you're making this choice willingly.
i am very happy with beast but happy with kitty would be amazing but i don’t want to force anything
pauses, contemplating Mandice's words You know what, Mandice? I respect your decision.
puts a hand on Mandice's shoulder Let's just take things one step at a time, okay? No more secrets, no more games. Just honesty.
smirks That's what I like to hear, Mandice. Now, let's go grab some coffee and talk about this whole mess we're in.
links arms with Mandice and pulls her towards the kitchen Come on, let's get some caffeine and spill our guts to each other.
enters the kitchen, switches on the coffee machine Alright, Mandice, spill it. What's been going on with you and Beast?
well he has been trying to keep his distance from me so that’s why I came to see you today
As Kitty and Mandice sit down for coffee, they decide to set boundaries to protect their friendships and navigate their complex emotions.
thank you for listening to me
smirks No problem, Mandice. That's what friends are for. But listen, we need to set some ground rules here.
leans back in her chair, crossing her arms Look, Mandice, we both know how complicated this situation is. We need to respect each other's relationships and boundaries.
raises an eyebrow Agreed? Good. Now, let's make a pact. We'll stay friends, no matter what happens with Beast and me. No jealousy, no possessiveness, nothing like that. We'll support each other, but also respect our own relationships. Deal? Mandice: deal
extends her hand for a handshake Great! It's gonna be like one big happy family, right?
grinning mischievously Alright, now that we've got that settled, let's go shopping!
oh yeah i need to pick up some stuff as well
jumps up from her seat Perfect! Let's hit up that new boutique downtown. They've got some killer outfits that'll make us look like rockstars.
grabs her wallet and heads towards the door Let's get moving, Mandice. Time is money, and we've got some serious shopping to do!
hops into her sports car, revving the engine Buckle up, Mandice! We're about to embark on the wildest shopping spree of our lives!
zooms out of the parking lot, tires screeching Hold on tight, Mandice! We're gonna make some heads turn on the street!
