[ He was a tree. Treezuki. Don't worry, he's better now. Though, he's got those moony-eyes now. ]
He sure doesn't change much, huh...? Hehe. Okay. I'm going to need you to walk me through this a little more, Ain. What did he tell you specifically? What was he doing? What was the context? What did you ask or say??
[Ain has noticed, but he hasn't sensed anything wrong with Mizuki, so it should be fine...? He thinks. Anyway, casually sets this thread to be after the screaming match they had too for spice—]
Um. He showed up and got bitten by a snake. I healed him, but it's not like I can remove the delirium from the poison, so I took him back to where I live to monitor his condition. ...well, he never lets me hug him, so while he was sick I laid on him and we talked about stuff. He knows I died once, but I didn't tell him about the other time. Uh... oh, he knows we all tried to fight the Forest and how that went, and kept accusing everyone of letting me die. I tried to explain that that's not what happened...
[Pets Mizuki... starts idly braiding some of Mizuki's longer hair because he needs to fidget or he Will blow up.]
Haha, but Mr. Ancient doesn't normally listen, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
Anyway, I laid on him and told him that if he went and got himself killed, I'd cry. You know, as a threat to deter him, because he clams up if people cry in front of him. And then he kept touching my face and telling me I was "more beautiful" when I wasn't crying. And then he called me cute a few minutes after. And then he fell asleep! And I also fell asleep. And we stayed like that until the next morning when he was feeling better, but he sneaked off and left me to sleep on the couch with his coat and a bunch of pillows.
[ Mizuki will continue to lie on Ain, and he just listens, and absorbs this information. Most of it he isn't entirely surprised to hear about Add. His touch aversion, the fact that he gets so stuck in his own head he doesn't change his mind, and... well, and just denying his own feelings overall, it seems like. Though Ain hasn't talked about Add denying it any, Mizuki can honestly just assume he did.
He doesn't say that, of course. After all, this Add's different from Doctor Add. He knows this. ]
Alright, I understand. But how did that make you feel?
Lots of different emotions...? I'm happy he's here, but I'm also devastated because he's not safe here. We weren't safe on Elrios, but I feel like we could handle that. I really, really don't want him to die, and I really don't want him to die and never come back like some people have.
[Sigh.]
I really liked us snuggling. And it was... nicer than our usual interactions, haha. I'd be lying if I said I didn't like what he said. I'm a little sad he got up without me and left me there, but it was sweet of him not to wake me up and leave his coat there...? I think?
[Unfurls the mental scroll, starts on line 1, item A. Let's see...]
That I think he's an idiot. That I'm still mad at him for the time he did surgery in the bathtub to give himself that Nasod armour and nearly bled out because he's too stupid to think for five seconds. That I like the way we tease each other, but I want to put his head through the wall sometimes, haha. That... I hope he makes friends here, and I hope he doesn't feel too lonely. Um...
...I kind of love him maybe, I will kick his ass if he dies on me or does anything stupid, I wish he'd move in with me, and I wish he'd loosen up a little sometimes. ...most of the time. Haha.
