Song: Anyone Else But You by The Moldy Peaches

Characters: Akira and Garvin. The rest of GRAIN mentioned.

Context: Just Akira and Garvin being idiots together, probably earlier on in the polyship's relationship. They're just silly little guys who love each other and don't know how to express it, lol

-

Akira, about Garvin, still struggling to admit to really having romantic emotions toward him but also starting to embrace it, realizing that they don't have to lose the friendship to start a relationship, also just kind of complementing Garvin for being himself: "You're a part time lover and a full time friend, the monkey on your back is the latest trend! I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you."

Garvin, more open to the idea of the relationship being romantic, even though he doesn't have a good concept of what that looks in a healthy way, mostly focusing on the sexual because of his experience: "I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of the train, I kiss you all starry eyed, my body's swinging from side to side. I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else but you..."

Akira, casually poking fun at both themself and Garvin, knowing offense won't be taken, becoming more comfortable in the new relationship: "Here is the church and here is the steeple, we sure are cute for two ugly people! I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you!"

Garvin, confused on why Akira's sticking around, even on a bad day: "The pebbles wouldn't forgive me, the trees wouldn't forgive me so why do you forgive me?... I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you..."

Akira, mostly just expressing how comfortable they are around Garvin: "I will find my niche in your car with my MP3, DVD, rumple-packed guitar. I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you!"

Garvin, smirking when Akira agrees to going on a heist with him: "Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B A start! Just because we use cheats doesn't mean we're not smart! I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you!"

Garvin, during one of their hang-out sessions, listening to Akira talk happily, occasionally throwing in a joke or two of his own: "You are always trying to keep it real, I'm in love with how you feel, I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you..."

Akira, admitting to the arguments with Revan, but also stating that they're refusing to be on anyone else's side but Garvin's, trusting him more than the others at the moment: "We both have shiny happy fits of rage, you want more fans, I want more stage, I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you..."

Garvin, casually admitting to loving Akira... in the most indirect way possible, well-aware that Akira will pick up on it even if no one else does: "Don Quixote was a steel driving man, my name is Garvin, I'm your biggest fan. I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you!"

Akira, grinning in and responding in their own, equally confusing way, also knowing Garvin will understand even if no one else does: "Squinched up your face and did a dance, you spin around until you can't. I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else, but you!"

Garvin and Akira, just being idiots in love, caring for each other in the most confusing ways they can manage: "But you!"
