Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

His words are in juxtaposition to his actions so its hard to tell what is real and what is not?

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

Nah, I don't let that bother me anymore.

[ too much ]

That's just how he is, I get it. I just don't know how to make things better for him, ever. And I don't think he even wants that? Like... He probably likes it more when I pretend I don't notice anything is wrong.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

That's because he feels guilty being weak in front of you. He's put in his mind that his role is protector and guardian. The eldest.

'Tis not an excuse, but it might help you understand better. I have the same problem with Cosmo. He is by far my elder and will turn every burden back on himself if given the chance. Even to his own detriment. And even though I love him with all my heart, it does bring up barriers between us. Sometimes it is easier to talk to Five than him even though I have know Cosmo for eons.

[ wrinkles his nose ]

I get it. I don't have to like it. And he just thinks that way because he had a stunted childhood with that crazy bastard we called Dad, and then because he was stuck by himself in the apocalypse.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

I don't want to belittle your concerns. You are trying and he is pushing back. Quite unfair to you when all you want is for his happiness.

I was simply concerned when you said he loved me over you. We have spoken and you will always take priority. Just as my people will as well.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

I mean. His Klaus, anyway.

[ flaps a hand ]

Anyway! Sorry to make that all sorts of depressing! I'm fine! You're not! Let's talk about something more fun!

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

Nonsense. Who do you speak to on such topics?

Perhaps you are not of his timeline, but you are still his. Would you go home with him or back to your own timeline?

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

I dunno! I didn't think that far ahead.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

Think about it. It is not a decision to be made likely, so take all the time you need.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

Guess it depends on what other stuff I remember? I haven't taken memories in a bit, and the two I got were from when we were kids. I think mostly I get stuff from when we were kids?

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

I wish I could say that the memories of you as children are sweet, but you did have each other.

And I will not push further, but know you can come talk to me if you wish. Or if you ever just wish to enjoy the beach you can reach out to me.

[He kisses the top of his head again before he lets him go and lies in the sand, definitely reddening under the sun.]

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

Thanks, man. I appreciate it, I really do.

[ '-'..... weh. he's gonna start burying Alex in the sand, then. ]

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

[He doesn't stop him, but gives him a curious look.]

Am I a turtle?

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

You're gonna burn! Also, it's relaxing.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

Who am I to argue that? Carry on then.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

[ CARRYING ON ]

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

[How much is he going to get buried? Because he might start getting a little antsy more than 50%.]

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

[ he's just going to dump handfuls of sand over Alex until he gets told to stop! Though he's also building tiny little dribble castles on Alex's chest as he does so, so... idk, maybe 50%ish? ]

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

[Well, he's going to get sand all over this button up atrocious Hawaiian, shirt, but worth it. He can't help but laugh a little though.]

There are buckets if you wish to make a proper sand castle.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

Nah, this is good! I'm having fun.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

Continue on then. But if I start to feel more sand monster than human, I might start to wriggle free.

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

[ laughs, reading back a bit to make claw hands ]

Raaargh! The earth shakes and moves beneath them!

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

[He can't help but be amused.]

What a fearsome creature!

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[ouji4board]

[ in a stage whisper: ]

Did you wanna get up and cause some mass destruction!

Re: day 347 some time idk when

[firstworldproblem]

[He laughs and does sit up abruptly spraying sand all over and also using BARiTONES ability to reflect, well sand in this case, so they hover for a moment unnaturally until they succumb to gravity.

He picks up a bucket and fills it with sea water before returning back the spot of his former sand prison.]

And what do you hope for? A tale where the seas spill red with blood?

[He dumbs the contents of the bucket in the depression, a brilliant crimson, that spread out across the sand. Wine actually. Wouldn't recommend drinking it.]
