[they will allow it! they absolutely allow it and let their hand curl around his briefly because it's a gesture they appreciate.]
There isn't really much I can ask for, no. Playing along and indulging and getting ahead are the only things I want from you right now. I don't think that'll change either.
[Childe does not deserve this cute handholding. LUST your BAD DECISIONS
But he'll nod, at that.]
Very well, then. [If it'll get him his wish, then he'll do it; whatever it takes.] Let me know if that changes. [He smiles, nudging their cloak lightly with his elbow.] Pride did insist I be kind to you, after all.
[Just doxxes Pride's squishy feelings all over the place]
You bet! You'll be the first to know if I decide I want something else, how about that? [what an honor. but uh. childe says that and they met get the sense lust is blinking in surprise before there's a laugh.]
Let me guess. They made it sound like they didn't actually care?
Promise! [it's fine. but pinky promise!! they immediately link their finger with his and sort of shake on it. a promise.]
Pride's difficult, but they're easier to talk to if you know how to handle them. They don't like a lot of people and trust even less but I think sometimes it's because trusting people can be really complicated for them. They'd probably be happier doing everything alone, but I'm not gonna let them. They're really nice when you can get them to talk to you. That's what matters to me.
[He almost, almost says "Well, trusting people is for fools", but. Lust reminds him too much of one of his siblings, so he just squeezes their pinky lightly and drops his hand.
Instead--]
Trust is a complicated thing. [Boy does he know that firsthand. Haha!!!] But I like them too, for what it's worth.

Promise? [Pinky finger, extended!! He'll be very upset if you don't follow through, Lust. He kept his!]
Ahaha, exactly right! You really do know them quite well.

I did. [And then gmail lost my notif again and now it's Sunday night so I'm too embarrassed to go backtag orz] I found them refreshing.

That doesn't surprise me. You're both very intelligent.

I'll take the compliment, but I have a feeling you could say something nice about everyone here.
no subject
Not everyone! But most people. The other Avatars are fine but some of you are kind of weird.
