★ ★booktag★ ★ takes place after TPOT 25 (MANIFESTING BOOKTAG IN TPOT 26 TRUST) listen to the song while reading for better experience probably <3 sorry if this is out of character, it probably is ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Book sat on the ground, leaning against a tree, and ran over the bright ground with her hand. It was quite reassuring to have everything have color again, and to be fair, to have everything...safe and stable again. She didn't have to worry about staying alive, worry about impending doom and elimination, she just had nothing to worry about right now because- Because Price Tag was by her side again. The second she thought that, she felt someone sit at her side, and she turned with a grin. "Taggy! I didn't know you were coming. I thought you were hanging out with Yellow Face or Two," She exclaimed happily. Taggy smiled :], and shrugged (??). "Nah, Two's still sticking to Gaty, and Yellow Face is with Winner. I thought I'd leave them alone." Book internally sighed, knowing she was probably Taggy's last choice.. They were quiet for a while, relaxing in each other's presence, Taggy leaning against the tree close to Book. "I'm so glad we're hanging out together again," Book murmured, not really knowing what she was saying. "Those months of being recovered then being thrown everywhere, complete chaos." She sighed with a slightly tired smile. "Hey, at least you weren't stuck on a broken ship with Marker nearly the whole time." Price Tag added, and Book giggled. "-No, but.." Book trailed off, trying to get back on track. "I'm glad everything is stable now, everything slowly, but gradually making it's way back to normal." She flushed as she hesitated what she was going to say. "I'm glad we're together again." Book said softly, leaning against Price Tag. (I thought Taggy had arms for a sec and Book would've held their hand but then I realized they don't and Book would've been holding their foot </3) She blushed when Price Tag leaned into her without hesitation. They sat there in a comfortable silence, and eventually Price Tag spoke up. "You're always my first choice, do you know that?" Book flinched and glanced down at Price Tag, blinking in surprise. She then sighed quietly. "I'm really glad you said that...you know me so well." Taggy's grin grew wider and they squished their face into her side, a faint blush on their face. 0_0〃 "I'm glad I decided to talk to you that day," they said happily. "The dream challenge." Book smiled faintly. "Back before the merge," She observed. "We've made it this far- I didn't think I would." She glanced at Taggy. "I knew you would though, always getting safe second." She said with a laugh, poking Taggy's face. Price Tag snickered, fake kicking Book away, and they remained next to each other, giggling. ★ ★booktag★ ★ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- bleh
