...Sam was frozen in time. Just for a moment. She was probably actually just staring into space for a few seconds but to her it felt like she could watch the wigs of a fly flap time was moving that slowly for her. She gulped back her own nerves, her body feeling so weirdly relieved, yet tense, all in a single moment. How was that possible? Fuck if she knew. All she did know was that this was probably a very serious situation for both of them, Sam who'd kinda given up on this and was fine being her friend...and Dash who may not even be sure what she was feeling.
As she finally found a breath leaving her lips again, Sam pulled back just one hand and rested it over her chest...she chuckled, hoping just...a small bit of humor could help them both. "S-sorry Dash...h-heart stopped for like a whole 5 seconds there..." Clearing her throat as she still tried to give this the seriousness it deserved, she opened her mouth to speak, but clearly interupted herself. "-actually-" She got up, moving around the table and into the bench beside Dasha, not too close, she didn't want to overwhelm her, this just made the conversation feel more private to her, and she held Dasha's hand in both of hers again, under the table where no prying eyes got to see.
"So...you like me? N-not...physically but...you like me?" If Dasha reassured her of that much, Sam would go on to just have a faint chuckle as she added. "Ya know...that is...weirdly upliftig? Knowing I got you to like me without my looks as a factor...hehehe....sorry just...I am so trying to process this like a normal fucking human being but my brain is like someone put jelly in a blender."

Dasha bit her lower lip so hard it hurt. Some part of her was already regretting this, and a sinking feeling was already seeping into her. A weird, half-laugh escaped from Dasha as Sam spoke, and a hand rather quick reached up to cover her mouth. Arceus, give her some sort of strength or resolve. Anything but this….. Whatever it was. As Sam shifted around the table, Dasha tensed again but settled as she just… sat down next to her.
The question that came after earned a small nod. Her head was pounding, but she could do that much. The handhold, though was… still nice though. “I….” Stop doing that, brain. She mentally willed herself to chill at least for a second before opening her mouth and uttering anything else. “I like hanging out with you... being around you. You make me feel so light sometimes…” Warmth touched her features again, but her stomach rolled over in turn. “But when that lady thought we were a couple and you’d said—… I was special…” More or less.
A weird flux of nerves and stress boiled over. “I just…. imagined living with you and… Feeling that way all the time…” A weak, weird laugh shook her shoulders. Starry shifted and swayed in her hiding shell almost worriedly now. “Sorry— I’m… sorry….”

Shinx wasn't at all sure what was going on, but she did know that someone had left the Shumais undefended, so if no one was going to stop her, she was gonna just quiiiiiietly lower his head down and try to nibble on a few of them. Not necessarily even finishing one before blindly nibbling on the next. Sam was completely blind to her right now though, just gazing at Dasha...as she seemed to tense again Sam knew what her instincts were telling her, and even more so as she apologized. She found her hands suddenly on Dasha's cheeks, but as she recognized her instincts, her own lips curled inwards...no that was...it FELT right, but it was wrong, at least right now. She didn't know how far Dasha's ace nature even went right now, if a kiss was out of the question but...settling for just making sure she had Dasha's eyes was good enough for herself right now.
"Dasha...listen to what I'm about to say...and listen carefully okay?" Her hands slowly slide back down Dasha, squeezing her shoulders, her own eyes a little glossy now as the weight of this moment was settling on her chest a bit. "I'm glad I make you feel so special. You deserve it. You are special. No one but my family, for a long, long time, has seen me be as cheerful and so...myself...than when I'm with you...but this is the important part okay?"
She made sure she had Dasha's eyes, steeled her breath so her voice didn't waver, and spoke.
"Whatever you're feeling is absolutely fine. Whether you want to live with me, whether you want this to just be a daily thing where we hang out, whether you want to try for something more, or stay friends...I want you to fully understand." Her hands moved and took both of Dasha's in hers, moving just a little closer as she held Dasha's hands, eyes a bit glossier and needing to steady her breath again.
"Friends, girlfriends, roomies or colleagues...your presence is already more than I deserve..and I will be happy with whatever you want...okay?" Despite how much her feelings may weigh on an answer to this, at least for now, she was doing her utmost to make Dasha feel comfortable speaking her mind.

The sudden desire to ball up and cry hit, and for a second, Dasha legitimately debated it. Before this could be enacted, though, hands touched her face, and she froze again. Her lips parted, but only a weak breath would draw inwards. She stared at Sam as she spoke unable to look away now. That ice in her veins made her want to squirm, but she sat perfectly still for now.
Whatever is fine… Dasha blinked a couple of times hard. As her hands were taken, she clasped Sam’s back. Friends, girlfriends, roomies or colleagues… Those words that came after settled into her slowly. Whatever I want… What the hell did she want? Dasha bit the inside of her mouth hard. I don’t know… She had.. she had told Sam impulsively because… because it had come up… because that prompt made it easy but now? What did she want outside of…
Hesitation. It was clear in every subtly and gesture that was made thereafter. Her hands slowly freed themselves from Sam’s, but her motions drew them closer. Hugging around Sam, Dasha took in a slow, shaky breath. This hug was nice. This hug was good. This was something she could not only put up with but could enjoy. “Thank you, Sam…” Dasha breathed out softly. “Thank you so much.”

Sam was a little surprised by the hug, but like Dasha she enjoyed it all the same, just letting out a tender breath and wrapping her arms under the girl's, hands laying flat on her back and just enjoying the quiet intimacy and comfort between them, resting her cheek against Dasha's and speaking quietly into her ear.
"Just erm...to be serious for a second..." Semi serious at least, with the playful wording she had in mind, she patted Dasha's back and eased off to wipe her glossy eyes, just getting her tears wiped out towards the corners, she took a calming breath and tried to speak again. "You're...you're genuinely gonna need to sort this out by...at least the end of the week." She let out a faint chuckle and wiped at her eyes again. "I mean really take as long as you need, but also, I'm gonna have a heart attack from all the stress if it takes too long.~" She was of course still joking from her tone but...fuck she could almost feel the stress building already.

Dasha eased back in turn, brushing her own eyes. She may have been a little too thankful then that her mascara at least was water proof. A small breath drew in and out of her, and a smaller nod was given. She needed… some more time to get all of this into focus and to create some semblance of a plan. She was good at that, though.
Talk to Alex first… And then maybe even Nik. Distantly she was aware she might even want to talk to Kaiamana about it, but what to say exactly got choked up in a strange mess of indiscriminate feelings. She… guessed she might even talk to Dad actually… Considering his lifestyle and metric was so similar to her own… Very suddenly, Dasha was feeling overwhelmed, and her stomach did a cartwheel instead. Bleh… She kind of still wanted to ball up or something but…. But she was fine for now… fine in quotations at least….
Starry was whining softly, though, and Dasha shifted some to slowly pet her. “Sorry sweetie… it’s alright,” she reassured. The baby wasn’t too sure about that but would take those nice pets for now at least.

Sam couldn't tell what was going through Dasha's head, but with the two of them calming down and her own eyes wiped dry she tried to just settle, spotting Starry and feeling a little bad for the poor thing as she whined their quietly. "Yeah sweetie we're okay. Auntie Sam and Momma Dash just needed a little talk is all...ah..." She turned her head, reaching for the Shumais. "Here why don't you...Shinx!" Sam pouted at her little kitty, who was laying on it's cheek in the now practically empty box of snacky dumplings, burping almost on cue with a cutely high tone to the rude sound. Sam couldn't really be mad, not now especially, but geeze leave at least a few for your trainer.
"Well we'll just get you something else sweet as we look around I guess..." She ruffled the hair on the back of her head, looking to Dasha a little sheepishly. "Er...assuming Dasha still wants to see the festival, of course."

A sharp snorted laugh broke passed Dasha before she could stop herself. A hand went up to cover her lips, but it was much too late now. Arceus, she didn’t even really notice that the Shinx was going to town on their snacks until that moment and just…. And now it was just… too funny, somehow. A couple of wheezy laughs came and went from her, and her shoulders shook just a little as she tried to get control and composure back. Maybe the deflating feelings added to the overall giddiness, though, heh.
She settled again after a moment. A cooler shake of head was given, and a softer smile held her features. “I….. yeah. I’d love to,” she answered reaching up to feel through several locks of hair and settle them behind her ear again. There was still so much to see and do, and even if those feelings decided to rupture at that unexpected moment she…. She was a queen and not about to let them ruin her night! Hah! “Besides~ there are royal activities afoot!” She grinned a little more than she necessarily had to at that.

At the queenly declaration, Sam burst into giggles for a moment as her body and mind were put majorly at ease, resting a hand over her chest and letting out a content sigh, easing herself onto her feet and lifting up the faintly heavier shinx, spotting a Shumai that hadn't been nibbled into...ah best not. She'd probably licked it int he process of getting at the others anyway. She was however polite enough to pick up the messy box to leave the table clean behind them. "Well my queen, I have found us our first delight, why don't you offer our next activity? Shall we try a festival game perhaps?"
