[IT'S A GIFT THE ANCIENTS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH!]

Oh, how's that? It is, though! I'm very grateful for your honesty! I'm trying to be my most honest and best for you too.

[darkweb]

I can be really non-dramatic! And you're still super nice to me, and I feel like I can trust you with a lot, so everything you're doing is working very well!

[begguiling]

You're flattering meeee~! No, thank you. I'm super relieved to hear it! It's not like I don't worry. I'm not experienced in this either, you know? I'm just trying not to do what I've seen other people do that made them miserable. And because I only love the very top tier of people, that means you deserve to be treated as top tier, obviously!

[darkweb]

I-I feel so honored, I don't want to waste the opportunity!

[begguiling]

Don't worry yourself too much about it, okay? I'm not going to come down on you if you mess up some or anything. That's not the kind of drama I mean!

[darkweb]

...What kind of drama do you mean?

[He wasn't conflating mistakes with drama or anything—those are two separate concerns—but now he really is curious.]

[begguiling]

Mmmmm . . . the type where people lie to each other, or don't talk things out, I guess. Or go behind one another's backs! That's what I'm trying not to do here. I know too many people who've had to go through misery in love because they didn't just have a conversation. It's the stupidest thing I've ever seen! Well, not that I don't get it. I know if I'd tried dating a year ago or whatever, I'd have pulled that same kind of thing. But I've learned by bad examples!

[darkweb]

That really happens that often? What kind of conversations are they avoiding?

[This is the fear of someone who is definitely suppressing some conversations that could be had. But, now they just talked about the Magolor stuff, so it's only non-Magolor-related stuff!!]

[begguiling]

Oh, stuff like "I've been in love with you for years but I can't just say it so you think I might actually hate you" or "we're getting married and I don't want to have a big party but I assume you do and I want you to have anything you want even if I hate it, so I'm hiding in the other room from our guests," you know, that kind of thing. Those are just two examples!

[darkweb]

...That does seem pretty serious... But I guess I do see how someone would end up in a situation like that.

Now that you mention it, I'm really glad we can talk about things!

[begguiling]

Mm, me too! Me too. I have to try hard to fight back the part of me that also totally gets how someone could end up in those situations, but I think I'm doing all right so far. And you're doing great! I was trying to say that it's probably fine if we mess it up a liiiiittle sometimes, though. I'm not going to dump you.

[darkweb]

I'm not going to dump you either! So—I think you also need to worry less about it. You don't have to ask my permission for everything as long as you just tell me about it.

[begguiling]

...Okay. You're right!

[He leans over to give Taranza another affectionate nuzzle. He's right!! It surprises even Magolor how much better he feels hearing that.]

I guess I really was worried more than I thought I was! I know I don't want to lose you!

[darkweb]

I definitely know how you feel... Although, you're the first person who's felt that way about me! But I don't want you to worry!

[begguiling]

[Hmmmm that's sad and bad and Magolor has to take out that feeling by pulling Taranza up over into a warm hug again, all cuddly.]

Let me take some pictures of you to fix your profile, okay? And some selfies with me too~.

[darkweb]

[He does not sense any sad and bad, only cuddly. He leans into it more emphatically this time, happily.]

Oh, right! I want to make sure I finish the snacks you made too.

[begguiling]

Hehehe, I actually just stole them from that banquet a couple days ago. I can't make a cheesecake! It looks hard.

[How do you get them so smooth?! How is it a cake made of cheese?! How does it balance on the thin little crust?!]

[darkweb]

[A COMPLETE MYSTERY. Absolutely no idea either IC or OOC how it could possibly happen.]

The snacks you prepared. Either way! And you made the tea!

[begguiling]

I'm being a good host, of course! That's not something I thought I'd ever get into until I got here. I really appreciate you helping me out with cleaning and making my place nicer, by the way. It's even more like a home now! . . . I want you to come over any time you want, okay? Just text me first in case it's not a good time.

[He knows he can't just have Taranza move in, even though he wants to, because that'd be extremely awkward if he's with Kei that night or any potential others. But!]

[darkweb]

Cleaning is a lot easier than cooking. Even though I do still want to learn...

[He pauses, looking around and trying to figure out if there's a way to get past the barrier of texting every single time. It's hard! To be that consistently assertive! Even if communication is ideal!!

But he can't think of anything immediately, so he just nods. The only thing he can think of to add is:]

Um, you can text me whenever too.

[begguiling]

I will, I will. I want to see you a lot, you know. ♥ It really feels a lot happier here with you around.

[darkweb]

Eh? It really makes that much of a difference?

[It turns out his anxiety of leaving his beloved less happy outweighs any awkwardness of being the one with more free time. He wants Magolor to be maximum happy!!]

[begguiling]

Mmhmm, it does! It changes everything. It's just a little brighter here now, and I want to keep it that way.

[darkweb]

I want to keep it that way too!! Actually, I think I feel the same way.

[begguiling]

About my place?
