[Cosima makes a small noise of protest when Clara pulls back from the almost kiss, prepared to close the distance between them. But Clara looks so serious and almost nervous, she stops, giving her a curious look. She braces herself for the worst news.
She almost laughs when Clara tells her, and only manages to stop herself because she doesn't want Clara to think she's not taking her confession seriously.]
Man, you know, they really don't have enough ill-advised kissing incidents in all those clone/parent trap/mistaken identity stories...
[Cosima pauses, considering. Is she angry? Somewhat, but Clara told her the truth and that means more to her than one ill-advised makeout session. And a another part of Cosima's glad that someone was there for Clara even if it wasn't her.]
Do you want me to be angry? If we're going with a honesty policy in this relationship I don't think getting angry every time we tell each other the truth is productive.
... Also I'm still kinda processing that Sarah was into it.
[Cosima tries to look mock offended, but then Clara's kissing her and it's really hard to keep up the act. She presses their foreheads together, grinning.]

You're not angry. [Is she laughing?] I thought there'd be a bit more anger.

[The word "bi" starts to form on her tongue, but then she comes to realize Cosima's meaning.]
... You didn't either?
no subject
No, man, she never mentioned it to me. I didn't exactly ask, but... I really should've picked up on it.
no subject
I sort of asked her, which is really embarrassing now. But she said yes. The rest is unfortunate history.
no subject
Unfortunate? She that bad a kisser? I'll have to let her know...

[She smiles, then presses a gently kiss to the side of Cosima's neck. A second one follows, lingering.]
She just wasn't you.
