[inlikethebrume]

There is always simply talking to vent out frustrations. We all have those times where we need to do things on our own but being able to talk about them and not bottle them up, that is something worthwhile.

[And from experience. Esteem is that side of her which speaks her true thoughts. She understands the meaning of doing SOME things on your own but talking to someone, to let someone know your feelings...it helps more than one can imagine.]

[darkcharge]

I wasn't trying to bottle anything up. It was just weird to talk to you about these things when...

[ He shifts around uncomfortably. ]

When you caused them?

[inlikethebrume]

Because I made you get a feeling?

[darkcharge]

...I don't think you made me do anything. I allowed you to get close. Now I care and I guess I don't want to see you hurt. That's. All there is to it?

[inlikethebrume]

[That in turn gets Mira to chuckle softly and hug a little tighter.]

It's the same with you too.

[darkcharge]

[ Huff ]

Yeah, I guess so. For a while I thought you were putting up with me for the saie ofnit. Or because you probably pitied me or something.

[inlikethebrume]

Nay, you would have been able to tell if it were pity or something else back then. I doubt you would be here if that were the case.

[You are a gremlin but her gremlin son.]

[darkcharge]

Actually, I couldn’t. Not at first. Mostly because I couldn’t understand why you would take some brat you didn’t even know in. Now that I know you better, it is definitely because on the inside you’re a bleeding heart.

[ He doesn’t say this to be offensive of course. Mira does care and care a lot. She just has different ways of showing it. ]

[inlikethebrume]

Most would take that as an insult but better to have it rather than close it off. There's a risk with it, pain is no stranger to me but it's one I'll gladly take if I can simply feel.

[She gets it and probably the stories about how dark knights are broody loners too. And then they meet her.]

[darkcharge]

A risk I really don't get but... Guess I ended up doing it anyway.

[inlikethebrume]

Sometimes we don't understand them or why we do it. I see it as natural but that is just me.

[darkcharge]

Can you at least make me feel better by telling me that this sort of thing isn't going to happen again?

[ That he'll get worked up on someone else's behalf? ]

[inlikethebrume]

The situation, I would hope that another does not happen and there would be much more communication.

As for emotions...that ends up being up to you. Those are hard to stop and no one knows when they will pop up again.

[darkcharge]

...Up to me? You just said they are hard to stop and no one knows when they will pop up again.

That implies it really isn't up to me.

[inlikethebrume]

Yes and no; you can control your emotions to an extent but to be in full control? No, even those who are tight lipped and keep them close can have outbursts at times.

It's...a rather complicated mess and I do not think anyone has solved how to do so.

[Without going crazy.]

[darkcharge]

You forget who you're talking to, Mira.

[ Because usually, yes. He is in full control of his emotions. ha's how it is when you can manifest them into creatures. But Vanitas sort of gets it. Sort of. ]

I didn't sign up for this.

[inlikethebrume]

Does anyone?

[darkcharge]

You do. All the time.

[inlikethebrume]

[She can't help but shrug at that. Look, sometimes you can't say it in words.]

[darkcharge]

[ Vanitas will sigh in response. That is not helpful whatsoever, Mira. ]

[inlikethebrume]

[Emotions are complicated!]

To be honest...I care about you too. But you probably knew that by now, didn't you?

[darkcharge]

[ There's that stupid. Warm. Fluttering feeling. Vanitas doesn't really have a name for it, but it has to be something like happiness, right? At the same time he's pretty embarrassed. So he leans more against Mira, partially to hide his face and also because...

It's nice. ...And it's not wrong to maybe want it, right? It's okay to accept this once and a while? Maybe... ]

Yeah, I know that. You made it pretty clear when Sora got here. I guess I... Care about you too.

[ Hmm. ]

All the more reason you should listen to me when I tell you to slow down.

[inlikethebrume]

[He might be trying to hide his face but Mira has to shift herself because a half hug wasn't going to cut it this time. Her arms wrap around him into a full one this time.]

I will attempt to do so. Staying in bed is not a pleasant idea most of the time.

[With some exceptions. Like hell she's telling him what.]

Besides, I would say that we are friends but I feel like that isn't enough.

[darkcharge]

[ Oh. Oh it's a full blown hug coming his way this time. There's no escaping it, not that he'd really try. Mira might get one back when the positioning is a little better. ]

No, it's not. Even though beds in general are kind of nice.

[ Considering here is the first time he's ever had one. He doesn't need to know what circumstances would make Mira LIKE being in bed all day. Being here has exposed him to many different things, making him question things he had thought were absolute truth.

Like friends and... Family. ]

Did we really just skip the "friends" part?

[inlikethebrume]

Very likely. But...we can be both friends and family at the same time.

[In all honesty, anyone who Mira considers family is not related by blood but by bonds. That caring about each other is just as good.]
