Oh. Oh, that's very nice of you. I'm also dedicated to his happiness, so maybe you and I can be friends with a similar goal.

[unfurious]

yes, i imagine we have quite a bit in common.

those of the underworld aren't always welcomed so warmly.

[sometimes people misunderstand them. sometimes they understand them perfectly. they run the same risk either way.]

[fagaceae]

I don't really understand that. It doesn't really matter where you come from, or what you do. It should not define you.

I've been judged harshly in the past, just because of what I am. I would never do it.

[unfurious]

it's fear. even when people are responsible for their own souls, it's just easier to blame us for their fate.

we've been used to it for a very long time. as a result, we've grown close and protective of one another.

[even ros who brings the anger out of her easier than most, it's only because he knows her well enough to be able to do it.]

if you can find comfort among us, that would make me very happy.

[fagaceae]

Are you not worried? That I'm an outsider? Am I disrupting a long-struck balance?

[ Because she's being very, very nice, and it's not like Hyunki is going to stop having feelings for Adder. But he doesn't want to make things difficult for him, either. ]

Is he taking risks, picking me?

[unfurious]

perhaps it's time for a new balance. we've all been thinking about it for a long time, each in our own little ways.

i'm not worried. my lord has me, and kerberos as well. he is big and...sometimes unpleasant. but adder is never at risk as long as he's here.

[fagaceae]

I shall take this as a threat to outside risks, but also to me. Which I perfectly understand, if you are all protective of each other. I respect that very much.

For what it's worth, I do not want to come in between anyone, and I hope I'm not. But I really do care for Adder, deeply.

[unfurious]

care for him as we do, and you will never have need to fear. things will fear you.

well, i think that's that.

[yes. she did what adder would want for her to do. she did what she expects of herself as someone who...cares about him. and hyunki seems perfectly pleasant, and if adder chose him, she has absolutely no right nor reason to feel bitter about it. let the angry voice inside of her be damned.]

what time do you wake of a morning?

[fagaceae]

I don't have a standard sleeping pattern. I need little sleep, and I spend most nights outside, in the forest. I tend to nap. Why?

[unfurious]

to bring your tea! i prepare a cup for adder at exactly 7 every morning. so i'll have yours ready around, say, 7:15?

it's the best way to start a morning. the only way, if you ask me.

[fagaceae]

[ The first thing that crosses Hyunki's mind is, what happens when I start sharing his bed?

But he's still loathe to be presumptuous about it. ]

I could maybe share a cup with you in the kitchen, when you're done bringing Adder his?

[unfurious]

[one thing at a time. allie's thoughts have turned in an unlikely direction - the hound. she wonders if ros has yet realized.]

that would be lovely. i currently have three favorite teacups, so that works out well.

[fagaceae]

[ hyunki will be scared of ros, probably. probably. ]

nice. we can share breakfast, then, hopefully. i'd like that. if you care for him, i'd like to know you.
