WHAT Last chance for timefuck except not really
WHERE Wherever
WHEN Day 127, whenever

[So, you've been messing around with time.]

[Okay, we've actually been doing that, yeah. Quiet Mounds is still a bit unpredictable, with the seasons and the clocks a little haywire. Today, there's another little pulse of magic. Maybe some of you find yourself back to normal? Or maybe more people are suddenly the wrong age or timeline. Maybe Deadpool shows up. I don't know.]

[Last post for deage/age-up/etc event, though obviously you can continue to backthread or play at your leisure after this.]

[clears his throat, and speaks up. Kind of raspy and thin]

How to trust...

[divasterous]

[oh, my heart. my darling. he kind of hurries up, yanking his clothes off]

Yes—I trust Mikk with everything I am.

[ribblerouser]

Is there any reason for that, though...?

[divasterous]

. . .

He showed me kindness. Patience, understanding. Love. When I was frightened, he talked me through it. When I expressed fears, he helped me understand where they were coming from.

[ribblerouser]

[is quiet in response to that]

[divasterous]

[coming out of the room again. he's changed into a pair of flowy dark gold pants and a black tanktop, and is barefoot. his hands are bare, covered in pale scars]

I've been doing my best to be the same for him. Neither of us needs to be alone.

[ribblerouser]

[quiet again] It sounds really nice. I can't imagine but I like it.

[divasterous]

[smooths his hands over Mikk's hair, leaning in to kiss the top of his head]

I'm sorry.

[ribblerouser]

[flusters, going very still]

Vasily...

[divasterous]

[arms draping loosely around him]

I love you, my sweet darling. I'm sorry you feel alone now, but it won't be forever.

[ribblerouser]

....[wraps his arms around Vasily and cuddles in, practically climbing into his lap]

[divasterous]

Ah—

[well, okay. we can sit on this couch and you can do just that]

[ribblerouser]

[leans on him]

Is this all right? Please let me know if I'm being a bother.

[divasterous]

Honestly, it's very reassuring to me right now.

[ribblerouser]

Is it...? That's good...

[leans his head on Vasily's chest]

[divasterous]

It's good . . .

[he just holds him, humming softly and stroking his hair]

[ribblerouser]

[eventually relaxes enough to fall asleep there]

[divasterous]

[drifts off as well, exhausted but now relaxed enough, too]

[ribblerouser]

[eventually the weight on your lap shifts and is. heavier?]

[divasterous]

Mmmh . . .?

[ribblerouser]

Mmmh...

[divasterous]

[—!!]

Mikk!

[ribblerouser]

[startles] Oh, goodness. Hello!

[divasterous]

Oh, thank goodness!

[ribblerouser]

[kisses him]
