[ 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.]

[ Van huffs, a laugh that doesn't quite make it out but it is one all the same. All of this is more than he had bargained for when he first agreed to take Mira up on her offer to live here. ]

If you say so, Mom.

[ the thing is? He's... Okay with this. Terrified, but largely okay. ]

[inlikethebrume]

I do mean it, Son.

[Now call Hades 'Dad' and it will be complete.]

[darkcharge]

No, I know you do and I do too? It's just this isn't how I thought would end up. Things like [ There's a moment here because he struggles with the word and using without snark ] family isn't something I thought suited. For a long time I hated everyone and he world because they had everything and I had nothing.

[ And he would have disappeared from existence feeling the same way. ]

Now I guess I have something and I don't know to feel about it. Or what to do about it.

[inlikethebrume]

[When you never had such a thing, it's hard to say it out loud.]

No one expects you to know immediately. Just take it one step at a time.

[darkcharge]

[ Super hard to say... ]

Right. Just one step at a time.

[ Which is also difficult sometimes. ]
