...

[She shakes her head.]

[It's too hard to believe.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[okay but.]

[what if I hug the tiny.]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[How quickly do you approach?]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[not fast at all. I don't want to scare her.]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[Good call.]

[Because she's tense at first, looking at him uncertainly.]

[Do you still go for it?]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[...yeah.]

It's okay. I won't hurt you.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

....

[She stays still, waiting.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[>HUG]

I know it's hard.

But I know you can do it.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[She's tense for several moments.]

[Before she melts against him and slowly moves her hands around him.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[Hairpetting ensues.]

It's okay.

Even by yourself, you're never alone.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[Oh....hair petting. That's good.]

...

[Her shoulders sag and it just...she can't believe it.]

[It's so different when others are HERE. Him here is unlike everything she knows and she wants THIS, not...not what she has.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

You'll have it someday.

And until then... you can feel it in your heart.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[You were getting somewhere, the balance almost evened out, but then....it stopped.]

[She's still not believing. And now the melting is more just....slumping.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[...dammit.]

[f...further petting.]

That aside... you have friends now. All of Ratatotskr, remember?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[Too much hope, too many feelings, too many relying on things with no evidence.]

[Not enough mind to support the heart.]

Ra...?

From:

fuhrinkaed

Your team. [Then I've lucked into something.]

Where I'm from, we all have teams--they're like families. And you have one too. Ratatotskr. You have plenty of friends who are there for you.

That much I can say for sure. I mean, I'm a friend too.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

....

Yo.....u.....aaaaare?

From:

fuhrinkaed

...something like that, anyways.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

Rrrrrr.....eeeeeally?

From:

fuhrinkaed

Technically we're sort of rivals who care about each other but sometimes want to shake each other until our heads pop off.

But yeah, we're basically friends.
