[no he was a cat. he did this to himself.

[ JUST FUCKIN STARES AT HIM ]

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

[RESURFACES WITH THE SAME AMOUNT OF GUILT HE WENT UNDER WITH]

I've created a misunderstanding. I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were that gullible.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ INDIGNANTLY ]

Excuse me?

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

[don't look at him like that the guilt is already killing him]

Have you talked to any magical cats lately.

[sinks back down into the water]

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ GENTLY (ok not too gently) DRAGS HIM BACK UP ]

Hey Lethe?

[ EXASPERATED, like of course. Of course. You dumb fucking horse. But still fond somehow. Awful. ]

How're people supposed to know your real feelings if you go out of your way to hide it?

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

I was going to change back before I talked to you but you were outside instead of resting inside! Maybe next time you should rest after you die, stupid!

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Bruh

This isn't cuteness aggression because Lethe is too fucking insufferable to be cute, but it's definitely... 'a positive emotion of SOME KIND' aggression.


He may only have one arm but it's enough to pull Lethe into a hug ]

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

[he feels less mortified, if only because they both probably look very stupid right now. and also maybe the positive emotions helped. hugs him back]

I shouldn't have to say that I care every time you get hurt before it sinks in. So don't forget it.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Soft ]

Alright.

[ ... Less soft ]

No wonder that cat was so goddamn demanding.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

He wouldn't have been so demanding if you'd listened to him in the first place.

[there is zero anger or heat in it. only affection and concern.]

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Listens to the words and demeanor along with the accompanying emotions ]

God this explains so much...

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

What does?

[genuinely confused]

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Exasperated. Fond. Lets him go ]

We probably shoulda just done this a long time ago.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

[a tiny bit defensive. a tiny bit.]

Isn't this how you and Styx always talk? I thought that's what you guys preferred.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Bemused ]

You've never beat the shit out of me or told me to rot in hell.

[ THAT'S clear communication, Lethe! ]

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

...

[STYX WAS WORSE THAN HE THOUGHT????]

And I hopefully never will?

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Oh buddy ]

I'm just saying, I would've parsed that fine.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

I don't know if I believe you. It doesn't sound like you parsed anything else I've said.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Dry ]

Guess we need emotional walkie-talkie more often, then.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

[thinks about how hard to tried to contain his emotions this whole ritual]

Uh. It's probably better...to not...it's embarrassing.

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[featherduster]

[ Listen he understands being shifty about emotions. But not the LOVE AND PEACE ones. Dude. ]

Your feelings for your friends are embarrassing?

Re: Day 69 (nice), emotionshare

[mykidisthebest]

Sharing them is embarrassing.

[he is, indeed, embarrassed just thinking about it]
