Oh...

[ He blinks down at it a few times before cautiously holding his hand out ]

Are you-- sure? I mean, I don't mind, obviously, it's just...

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[expiries]

I... would prefer to know what it contains.

[tiny pause, then awkwardly]

But of course, if you'd prefer not to witness something that might be unpleasant, I'd understand. Certainly.

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[featherduster]

... Do you have strong reason to think it will be unpleasant?

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[expiries]

[weighs how to answer for a moment]

I don't think most people would consider the majority of them happy, so far. But they don't bother me.

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[featherduster]

[ Ah. ]

... I understand.

[ He holds his hand out more firmly this time ]

And I don't mind. Any unpleasantness is worth it if it helps you.

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[expiries]

...Thank you.

[hesitating like a loser for another moment before handing him the paper, knowing not what it contains]

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[featherduster]

[ Takes it



Gawks openly, though maybe not for the reasons Thistle might think ]

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[expiries]

... Are you alright?

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[featherduster]

--Yeah. Sorry. I...

You've got someone back in that other life, seems like.

[ Holding out the paper ]

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[expiries]

[immediately assumes]

Oh, that was... When he was much younger.

[takes the paper]

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[featherduster]

[ One eyebrow goes up ]

Didn't seem much younger...

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[expiries]

[his voice cracks a lil]

I - beg your pardon? What - who...?

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[featherduster]

[ oh no ]

Is that your first time seeing her? What an intro...

Re: tag-ins (thistle)

[expiries]

[hesitates for a moment]

...Red hair? Too thin, a bit unkind?
