[ You know, it sure is a good thing he was prepared for this username by Earlier Conversations, because otherwise Lupine would be kind of floored by how awful it is. ]
[Someone has left a festive wrapped package in your unit dropbox. The tag, in Hurricane's sloppy handwriting, is addressed to you by name, and it reads: "Happy holidays, dude!" There is also a jar of dark chocolate rum truffles.]
uniTEA: hey!! uniTEA: are you busy uniTEA: wanna see my room uniTEA: thats not a euphemism btw uniTEA: i mean i guess it COULD be but ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯ uniTEA: oh no that face is A Lot lol
[ Smothered laughter. His mood could definitely be a little better — but sIV and BE and avante are all looking a little better today, so. He'll take it, you know? ]
🐺: Come on it's not that much 🐺: Could be way worse
[ A beat later, it occurs to him that he should maybe add: ]
Cool Motive, Still Murder: Amnesia Edition: guess what stuck around
[the text is quickly followed by a photo of Valor taking a picture of his reflection in a mirror, wearing the black tank from his first Lilis outfit. he's smiling, mouth slightly open, long snake tongue flicking out to just brush the mirror's surface.]
[ —In his head, there's about ten seconds devoted entirely to thinking about Lark's question, and how hilarious it would be if this had been Lark's opener. ]
🐺: You can definitely ask 🐺: I'll probably even answer
Bordeaux: Quick question Bordeaux: O also this is Eichi, I don't know if we've ever texted Bordeaux: Miss Yvette is offering a few drinks for me to go, so I figured I would ask if you'd like some.
[ wha ] [ oh ] [ Lupine spends a moment on his back in bed, then levers himself up and slips out. Into a bathroom instead, so the light won't wake anybody else.
He could've just left Hades on read until morning. It's definitely late.
...But. It's an honest relief to hear from him, after their truncated conversations during Last Supper. ]
[They've selected a comfortable soft room to do this in, since all things are improved by a vast multitude of blankets and pillows. After making sure that the both of them are ready, Doctor turns on Heart Soldier's power.
His feelings are the first to flood out into both of them, warm affection and trust in equal measure. He knows that there are likely going to be unpleasant emotions beneath the surface for any or all of them, but he has confidence that their bonds are strong enough to handle it.]
Re: Day 524? threeway emotionshare, doctor -> aliza -> lupine
[ There's a flicker of a moment before Doctor activates the bond that Aliza's mind stretches out as she fights a desire to break away, run, hide. Or worse, lash out, thrash and claw at the threat. She does neither, though she does tense sharply, her grip on both men squeezing down hard. ]
[ The first thing they'll feel is a drop of trepidation, as though she could hide what she doesn't wish them to see. But then the floodgates open, and what spills out of her is a tangled, writhing mass of emotions that are all far more intense than any human feeling. ]
[ Some of these are recognizable as humanlike. Shame and guilt are at the core of her, a gaping wound constantly on the edge of going sour. A desire to protect and care for others and the icy chill that is her fear of failing them. Desperate need to hold on to her memories while she also wants nothing more than to forget. Her love for them both, though different forms of it, gleaming bright amidst the chaos. ]
[ The rest of her is not human at all. Her instinct is a writhing, oily mass that leeches over every part of her, a sickening sweet call that insists she destroy, hurt, take. It craves not only blood, but the fight to obtain it, the satisfaction of lording over those she razes down. It demands she take everything she could ever want and many things she doesn't, just for the sake of having them. It hates and curses the side of her that loves and protects, and aims to crush those pathetic human feelings so it can do as it likes. ]
[ She is always fighting that evil inside her. Everything she does or says or thinks is a battle. The good in her sometimes wants to wither and submit, but she won't allow it. Knowing deep down that she is an evil thing, an abomination, helps fuel her to keep fighting even more than does her love and protectiveness. She will win, because she must. ]
[ Doctor's seen most of this before, of course. But there's something new, extreme possessiveness that makes her want to clutch at him and snarl away any who dare intrude -- behind the impulse is not only rage, but fear. She's petrified of being abandoned and alone, and this side of her will do anything to keep what's hers, anything. Her trust in them both forces back the impulse and hates herself for needing to. Though she'd like to say her trust is winning handily, it's essentially a stalemate, any little push could thumb the scale. This is why she can't talk about Doctor and Lupine and whatever they get up to, Aliza doesn't trust her better angels enough to keep her demons contained. And there is a thought, a whisper, that if she could only turn them both it would cease to be an issue. ]
day 408
uniTEA: lupine!!! hello!
Re: day 408

[ And then immediate regrets because man, these things need better tone indicators. ]
