[Alas, for better or worse, it seems there's no actual way for the message to be deleted.....
And so, oblivious to the second thoughts Tear's actually having on the other end, Jade answers her late night text quite promptly. He doesn't generally retire to bed until later still, himself--in fact he's still not even in his cabin yet, at the moment--and it's also not unusual for them to have late correspondences in this way sometimes...]
Good evening, Tear. You've a thought to share, perhaps?
she scrambles a little, trying to figure out what she can say to get herself out of this. for some reason, she can only think to ask him about activities on this ship... movies? swimming? it was all too obviously bizarre for her to bring up.
as she rounds the corner to her cabin, however, she's suddenly struck by inspiration (sort of). ]
[Rip to Wednesday, shamelessly being thrown under the bus like this.........]
Oh dear, that's rather unfortunate. This is a newer person that's been assigned to your room of late, isn't it? My, I hope it's not even worse than Guy or Luke's snoring used to be!
[Inevitable consequences of the various crowded inn stays they'd needed to make on their past adventures: getting very familiar with the rest of the party's sleeping quirks.]
If it's a word of advice you'd like to have, I've always heard that smothering a snorer with a pillow is usually quite effective 😊😊
[ both because it's morally wrong and also because she can't imagine doing that to wednesday -- who is actually innocent of any snoring-related crimes...
has she thought about it regarding guy and luke before though?
You wound me Tear 🙁 Surely I've never struck you as any sort of jokester! I've got my reputation to uphold as an absolute font of seriousness, now don't I?
[Yes he is indeed 100% aware that saying it isn't joke would make it an Even Worse suggestion--
But anyway! All that flagrantly shameless joking around aside.]
But no, I don't believe I've met her...all in black, hm? Perhaps I've spotted her around a time or two. [Thoughtful pause. Not necessarily his business, and it's not like Tear can't take care of herself and any particularly sticky roommate situations regardless either, but...] Have you found that you two get along amenably thus far? Apart from this newest snoring discovery, of course
[ well ... they hadn't talked about her roommate yet anyway, had they? ]
I don't think she likes the decor I have on my side of the room ...
[ that decor being all of the plushies she's gotten during her time here, especially the piles jade so graciously helped her carry from the carnival a few months ago. ]
I think she dislikes cute things.
Not that I like them too much myself of anything [ of course!! ]
Is that so? My, it's a bit surprising. Here I thought surely just about anyone would be moved on some level, by the sheer quantity of adorable plush creatures you've amassed on your side of the room of late. Especially considering the effort it took to get them over there!
[It sure was extremely gracious of him to carry those armloads of toys all the way back to the ship!! He hasn't forgotten this!!!]
But that just means you're going to have to convince her of their charm as you two solidify your mutual roommate status, obviously. I'm sure you could be quite convincing, with some effort. [100% reading that denial over there for filth, of course, but--] As a naturally entirely neutral party on this matter, you're already the best candidate for the case of cute things. I wish you the best of luck!

My roommate is snoring.
[ sorry, wednesday ... ]
I wasn't expecting it to be so loud.

Have you met my roommate before?
She's around my age and only wears black.
