Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

Not really. But fair warning...

If we keep laying like this, I'm gonna fall asleep soon.

[ reaches up a hand to idly, soothingly play with snow's hair ]

I'm good with that. You're cute when you sleep.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

[Nooo feels nice...]

But I like spending time awake with you...

Re: day 251

[audacity]

I like that too. But watching you sleep helps me sleep, you know.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

Aww, now I can't turn you down.

Re: day 251

[audacity]

[ hehehe

continues to play with his hair ]

It feels...safer with you there.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

[A pause. And then:]

...It feels a little more grounding with others around when you wake up again, doesn't it?

Re: day 251

[audacity]

...a lot more. It's really hard to sleep without that, sometimes.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

It's what makes the sleepover pit so nice.

...Honestly, I'm looking forward to taking Foxy home with me so I won't have to go back to sleeping alone right away.

Re: day 251

[audacity]

Bet he'll appreciate it too, after everything. Nettle won't mind sharing, but I'll try to give him a little space sometimes. With the...

[ ...way his nightmares have been much worse since he caught up on his memories ]

...you know.

Geez, maybe we need a sleepover pit in the city.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

I can't do it every night, but I might be able to host a sleepover at some point.

Re: day 251

[audacity]

I can sneak into your room some nights, if you want. You have a window, right?

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

Ooh, scandalous.

I do have a window, but you'll have to avoid stepping on the planter outside of it.

Re: day 251

[audacity]

Challenge accepted.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

If you ruin any of the plants I'll never forgive you, so be careful ~☆

Re: day 251

[audacity]

I can be good at careful.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

I can't wait to see you try it.

Re: day 251

[audacity]

[ heh

keeps petting his hair ]

I love you, and I love all of your plants.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

You haven't even seen all of them yet.

[But relaxing into the pets.]

Re: day 251

[audacity]

Not yet, but they're something you care about and have put a lot of work into.

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

That's all it takes for you, huh?

Re: day 251

[audacity]

Should it take anything else?

Re: day 251

[bondsofsuffering]

I mean... just because I care about something doesn't mean you have to.

Re: day 251

[audacity]

I know I don't have to. But...

[ goes quiet for a moment ]

...when you care about something, you don't half-ass it. You care really hard. It becomes a part of you. Even if I don't care about or even understand something the same way...I care about you, and the effort you're putting into it. I care about what matters to you enough to spend your time on, you know? 'cause it comes back to how you're curious, and how you always wanna help people, and how hard you work, and all the other cool stuff about you that I love so much.

[He listens intently the whole while, though...

As Aster keeps talking, he slowly dips his head down, embarrassed.]

...You're definitely making a big deal out of nothing, now.
