Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

But...

[ he hesitates... ]

I'm not really lying... I don't want you to second guess... everything...

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

I don't think you're lying... but I want... um. I want you to talk about things more than you do. Or if something... bothers you... to say something. Like the luck thing.

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

... Okay.

I'll do that for you!

[ another brief nuzzle. ]

I promise.

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

[... one final shift, to where she's just sitting in his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck and clinging.]

... Thank you.

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

Ehe.

[ that anxious grip on his heart loosens, enough that he can simply let it fall to the wayside... as much as humanly possible. ]

Don't worry about it. I love you too, you know.

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

I know.

... That's why... I'm so scared of being a problem. My mother always told me to stop being a problem when I was sick. She—she probably thought me just being sick was a problem. Maybe that's why she didn't... show up when I died... because it was asking too much to want her there.

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

Oh...

[ he sees to be thinking about that... ]

Hey, Ruby...?

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

... Kalim?

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

I'm really sorry about everything you went through in your past life... I can't imagine how hard that might be...

But I'm glad you told me, too.

No one should make you feel like you're the problem-- you should be allowed to be cute and carefree.

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

I... want to be.

I really... really do.

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

I think you're really cute! And not being carefree right now's ok.

When I'm feeling better, will you finish teaching me that dance...?

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

[she nods, a couple of short little nods, before clinging to him even tighter than before.

and then she just cries, letting go of the sobs that she's been trying to bite back since dangerbear finished.]

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

[ oh...

he wraps his arms around her, and gives her slow backrubs, closing his eyes as he leans his head against hers.

they'll... be okay, right...? ]

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

[it takes a solid few minutes before it slows, and then turns into hiccups and wheezes and a couple of coughs]

... I'm... sorry. I kept you from going back to sleep, didn't I?

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

It's okay.

I slept a ton today.

[ he reaches up to stroke a hand through her hair ]

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

... How's your pen looking...?

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

A little better. But it's still kinda black.

But that's blot that I'm not dealing with, so it's okay!!

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

[...]

And it's okay to not deal with that blot?

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

Yeah. That's what a magestone's for.

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

[she sniffs, curling up against him]

... I've been doing everything I can to make sure you got enough sleep... so I'm glad...

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

I really appreciate it...

I'll be better tomorrow, just wait and see.

... And if not, then definitely the day after that. I'm sorry for worrying you.

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

... I'm gonna keep an eye on you, just so it doesn't get that bad again. Okay?

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

Eh?

That's really nice of you...

Re: day 36, very late

[aididitmyway]

... It's the last I can do for someone I love...

Re: day 36, very late

[goldencharms]

Ahaha, but it’s something you don’t understand, right…?
