Jester whispered softly now, watching as he nuzzled into her further, like he was seeking her warmth . . . How adorable .
It was no surprise her other version fell for him . He was more than he thought he was .
Merely running her fingers through the other's hair, she'd observe the sight of him so calm across her lap . . .
A small smile appeared across her lips at his words, but she didn't really say anything back to that . But she'd remember that .
โ You can trust me, Dual . โ
โ Iโm okay just . . . Frustrated I think . โ
He sighed shutting his eyes .
โ thank you though . . For . . Listening . . When I was only here to help you out originally . โ
He nuzzled his cheek against her knee a bit .
Sheโs not his but he still truly cares for every-
She reminded, knowing of the lady's tendency to always make sure others weren't in trouble . Despite being one of the youngest monsters there, Jester knew everything about everyone here .
โ So tell me, what was the trick you two wanted to achieve ? Perhaps I could help . โ
Stepping away from her desk, Jester would find herself standing right before Columbina . The height difference helped elevate Jester's role here, as she observed her before she spoke .
โ I merely called you here because I knew you'd feel bad and try to take the blame . โ

The lady in pink freezes in her pantomiming, simultaneously putting her hands down and clearing her throat, " Yes, Mistress, ๐ understand. But if the matter was dealt with โโ pray tell โโ what did you call me for? " Though not completely relieved, she would approach the

with this state . . . If she could, she'd bring a child for him, but she didn't want to say anything .
โ Just relax . . . Don't think about this too much . . . โ
Purple eyes observe the other as he lowered his head on her knee . . .
Her hand found place against his head, carefully laying it down on her lap before her clawed fingers gently brushed his hair .
โ Shhh . . . โ
Making sure he was comfortable, she'd then try to focus
He actually moved a bit and set his head against the others knee . . She could put her hand on his shoulder if she wanted too .
โ . . . But . . Doesnโt give me the chance to . . Have my own . . Child . โ he sighed . .
He always thought about that but never put two and -
on making sure he calmed down, even if it meant he'd fall asleep on her lap again .
She didn't want Dual to feel so down, and let this get to him . For whatever reason, she hated seeing him feel down . . . She felt the urge to fight whatever force was mocking him
She spoke in her usual, stern but calm tone while her eyes remained on the rosรฉ lady before her . Columbina seemed like the nicest out of them all, which is why Jester wasn't mad right now .
โ But you need to be reminded of the rules here . . . Machines are no playthings . โ
Tending to paperwork within the private abode of her purple tent, her purple orbs glimmered in the dim light when the tent canvas opened to show Columbina entering . Settling the papers aside, Jester would observe her pantomiming gesture, and the way she frantically tried to

" You wanted to see me, Madame Jester (@PUPP3TSTRINGS)? " The voice of the lady in rosรฉ resounds through the purple tent. Light peeks in when she enters, though itโs quick to fade once she pulls its curtains back together. " If this is about the cotton candy incident with

explain what had happened . . . Now, of course Jester wasn't pleased that a cotton candy machine would stop working because of their little . . . Game ? She didn't even know what to name it now .
โ Slow down, Columbina . The matter has been dealt with already . โ

Observing his father vulnerable state, Jester felt both proud and softened at the sight . It meant Dual trusted her, but also showed his emotions .
She didn't want to touch him without permission, so she glanced towards his eyes, reaching her hand out as if she'd
He stared at her . . . Before he looked away with a soft sigh .
โ . . I suppose but I doubt myself that I could have a child even being a monster now majority wise . . But . . Yeah . . I could always take one in like you all did to me . . โ
He twiddled his thumbs a-
place it on his shoulder, but waiting for him to give her the sign to go ahead .
โ I am the same . . . Which is why you can rest assured that that is also a valid option . Just like how you have the right to not have children at all . โ
Jester's expression softened a bit,
Her eyes glance back up towards him, of course, this was just a suggestion . But Jester truly felt a need to mention it . . .
Because she herself experienced getting rejected from her own bloodline . If she had gotten adopted by another monster, maybe she'd be less . . . Angry .
Her purple eyes softened the more he revealed of his nature . . . So he wasn't fertile ? How was that fair ?
' But . . . That doesn't mean you can't still have monster children . '
Jester reminded, glancing down at her hands while she signed, playing with a strand of her
' I think as a human , I never . . Hit Puberty truly . . I mean I did but . . Nothing ever came of it . ' he shrugged .
' that was 200 ish years ago tho so . . However when I started having horns grow in I was definitely sensitive to evey ones scents which definitely drove-
long purple hair while she spoke softly, finding it easier to explain than with hands .
โ There are many monster children who either lost their families young, or got abandoned . . . I know how it is, and trust me . You can have a child that isn't truly biologically yours . โ
