[She kinda just blurts it out without thinking, a confused look on her face. Trolls have many partners. A good chunk of the stability of their society used to depend on that fact. But then it finally percolates through her pan what’s being asked here, so she puts on her serious face and gives a serious answer.]
I know you’ve got a pale crush on that Akechi guy. And probably some other people, knowing you. And just because Jupiter and Neptune aren’t here and I am doesn’t mean you don’t still love them. I don’t even want to think about taking their place! What we’ve got going on now is nice. But I would never expect this to be exclusively for us.
[This isn’t quadrant business, with all its insistently role-monogamous drama. She’s had enough of that for a lifetime. This is just plain old relationship business, and making sure everything is straight (heh) between them. They’ve both got other people in their lives, and that’s okay. It’s important that she let Venus know that she knows and understands.]
You like so many people! And that’s part of why I like you.
