Once things settle the fuck down, yeah. Mindfuck's gone, the curse is... I don't know if it's gone. But I'll bet the fucker's finally safe to pull if it isn't.

[abnormalizes]

Probably, yeah. One of your magic-science-genius friends can probably do it.

[wroughtandtempered]

Red Son, yeah. He's the one who found the fucking problem in the first place.

[abnormalizes]

I'd honestly love to talk nerd stuff with him at a time when somebody's welfare wasn't on the line, that sounds like fun.

[She hasn't figured out that he's one of two otherworlders who have successfully Pissed Her Off in Ellipsa, since it was through text.]

[wroughtandtempered]

Probably would be. He's...

[ how does one describe a Red Son in all his complexity. ]

Really fucking smart? And also pretty squishy, sort of, but it's buried under like ten layers of abrasive as fuck. So watch out.

[abnormalizes]

I'm pretty hard to offend usually! So it'll probably be fine-ish?

[wroughtandtempered]

Hopefully. ...I was going to say my asshole tolerance is okay and he's gotten me a few times, but... thinking about it my tolerance is kind of shit, actually.

[abnormalizes]

You're valid though. I think I've only really gotten mad at otherworlders... like twice? And one was the Porty hostage thing, and before that some asshole was like 'it's the people on your world's fault their lives are shit because they aren't willing to almost certainly die trying to rebel against the people oppressing them'.

[wroughtandtempered]

What the fuck.

[ squinting ]

I mean. ...I'd fight, but I know I'm weird about that shit? Nobody should be ashamed of doing what they have to to fucking live.

[ said the girl who just had a heart game entirely about the ways she's fucked herself up to do just that, ]

And victim-blaming's just fucked up, period.

[abnormalizes]

Yeah! Like - obviously I respect people who are willing to fight even when the odds are shit, but sometimes the odds are just really shit.

Anyway. Fuck that guy. But most people haven't been that level of asshole.

[wroughtandtempered]

That's good. No assholes for you.





Unless it's consensual or something.

[abnormalizes]

[Opens her mouth. Closes it.]

On second thought, I think that was a joke and not actually a prompt to talk about kinks?

[wroughtandtempered]

[ shifts a little to pat clumsily at her leg with one paw without looking ]

Just a joke. Kink talk probably shouldn't happen when my head's freshly... shit. Exploded? Imploded?

[abnormalizes]

Probably! I caught myself before starting to ramble, go me, social skills success.

[wroughtandtempered]

You usually do pretty okay.

[abnormalizes]

Thank you! That's good to hear, it's definitely something I think about consciously. People who are just good at social skills without ever thinking about it are like, magic.

[wroughtandtempered]

No fucking kidding. ...I worry about that shit a lot, so.

[abnormalizes]

Well, at least we can sort of relax around each other since we're both not great at this?

[wroughtandtempered]

A no judging zone, yeah.

[abnormalizes]

Works for me.

[scritch scritch scritch]

-Oh, I met your parents? Representations of your parents?

[wroughtandtempered]

Wh— shit, really?

[ blearily considers that ]

Donnie did have his siblings in his head... I guess my parents aren't that weird. ...What'd you think?

[abnormalizes]

Your mom seemed nice! She was very sweet about me falling over myself to try to be polite after belatedly realizing who she was. And your dad was cool? If I hadn't been busy helping I would've loved to talk nerd things with her.

[wroughtandtempered]

... sounds about right.

[ a little wistful. she... definitely feels some way, thinking about them still being enough of a part of her to do things like that. ]

Choco-chan's getting us a shitton of memory share items sometime? If you ever want to see either of them going full nerd, I wouldn't mind using a few for that.

[abnormalizes]

I'd love to sometime. -I could probably show you a memory or two of my parents in exchange, if you wanted.

[wroughtandtempered]

[ hello it's Puppy Dog Eyes Time ]

—if you wouldn't mind? I...

...I know they worked their asses off for you. So it'd be kind of... an honor? ...shit that's kind of sappy, sorry.
