* On a scale of 1-10 how freaked out do you think folks in the light world would be if they saw a 16 foot TV Man wandering out the streets with his host in one of his pockets ...
* ... Asking ... For a friend ???
No, no, that was amazing. You're amazing...
Tenna you're a light in my life, a beautiful guiding light. I dont think I could describe to you how much you truly mean to me...
[ his form seemed to glow a little brighter. Hovering around Tenna as he switched forms. ]

[ Mettaton's nerves mirrored his companions. Taking the offered hand with his own small smile. ]
I'd love nothing more, Mr. Tenna. I'm honored you'd even ask.
I- Darling you're wonderful, I hope you know... I don't know what I would do without you...
It makes me so happy to know that I mean something to someone as precious as you.

[ Mettaton would never, he was far too deep into whatever this was to simply abandon him now.
Besides, he had so much he wanted to learn from Tenna. Things he didn't want to learn from anyone else. How to be the star Tenna thought he was. ]

* ( Well . He’d be back to a TV and Mettaton would ... Float inside like always ... And TV World was theirs again . )
* ... If you’ll have me , of course , 𝐷𝑜𝑙𝑙 ...
Was wha-
[ EEP ! He jumped when Tenna changed, floating around the familiar TV curiously. Well that was interesting. And made things much easier. ]
Well- yes of course ! If you'd want to stay like that at night, darling, of course! I would have made room either way!
+
[ All of the energy seemed to return to him at the sound of Tenna's hopeful tone, bumping his ghostly cheek against the side of his screen affectionately. ]
I'm certain Blooky and Maddie wouldn't mind one bit when you can be so cute and compact!

How silly he felt, getting so quickly attached to someone he knew couldn't stay. His words continued as mumbles, not quite intending to speak it.]
It would be too constricting for a star like you anyway, being stuck with a nobody like this ... All uncomfortable and small ...
Still such a charmer, aren't you, honey?
[ He couldn't help but feel less deserving of it now, despite being the same as he was in the dark world, really.
Perhaps because he worried this form would disappoint Tenna, surely he couldn't 𝘴𝘦𝘦 Mettaton when he was just a TV ?

* ( He slightly opened his jacket as well for his little star to huddle up into . They could stare at the sky together like this . Without sacrificing Mettaton’s comfort . )
[ Mettaton settled comfortably into Tenna's jacket. Immediately, some of the anxious energy that came with being outside of the privacy of his home dissipated.
The kindness made the thought of being apart even harder.
