Now that’s the first time I’ve heard that!

It’s getting marked on the calendar.

[⋆｡° ιʂαԃσɾα @Lupusnoctis_]

Well, yeah OK you're right.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

On the inside, yes. A little bit.

[⋆｡° ιʂαԃσɾα @Lupusnoctis_]

Are you all dead or what?

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

Joey @ a certain someone.

[۟ @sidereumnoxe]

⠀the world is ugly, but you’re beautiful to me.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

That’s fair. It’s a good choice.

[⋆｡° ιʂαԃσɾα @Lupusnoctis_]

Mmmh sweet of course

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

Anastasia had helped him and brag wasn’t something a bad normie would do. At least he didn’t think so.

“I’ll think twice about that next time” he added.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

Joey smiled back at her as best as he could. “At least I can tick one experience off my bucket list” he joked with a laugh to follow his words. Though next time he would definitely be more careful.

Maybe normies weren’t all that bad either, of course some of them could be but +

[𝓐𝑛𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑠𝑖𝑎.ᐟ @xhumangirl]

Okay, he had a point. And it definitely made her feel better that he reacted like that but mostly that he wasn't acting like she imagined he or any outcast would.

She couldn't say she would trust him out of that alone but at least she felt less tense around him.

Because he >

// Sorry for slow replies, they are coming. I’ve been moved onto nightshift for my job until the new year (because the other supervisor has a broken foot).

Replies will be a little bit slow for a little bit but I’ll still be around.

Sorry again.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

Any preference for what type of popcorn?

[⋆｡° ιʂαԃσɾα @Lupusnoctis_]

Ah yes, sounds good.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

popping it under his shirt and still smiling. Now he needs to go and find her to thank her for this.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

To start with when he saw the box, he was very confused. But when he opened it, a smile spread across his face immediately. Maybe that wasn’t the normal reaction to have after being given a vial of blood.

But it was adorable. Fel is super adorable.

Carefully he places it on, +

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

That’s right.

[⋆｡° ιʂαԃσɾα @Lupusnoctis_]

The popcorn?

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

I’ll even make sure to share it.

[⋆｡° ιʂαԃσɾα @Lupusnoctis_]

Perfect!

afterwards.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

Joey tried to see the funny side of it, it wasn’t the worst thing that had happened to him so he tried to make a positive of it.

He paused, “don’t apologise for defending yourself, if I was someone with bad intentions, at least you were prepared” he paused for a second again.

[���𝑛𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑠𝑖𝑎.ᐟ @xhumangirl]

She was still weary of him, but she couldn't deny she also felt guilty.

Anastasia sighed.

"I- i don't know, somehow it still feels wrong" she said with a soft voice. After a pause she added. "Are you okay?" she turned the small can in her hand. Apparently this was the extra >

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

“Don’t worry about it, alright” he added with a soft laugh, “trust me, if I was in your shoes, I would have done the same to a weird guy who I’ve never met who was talking about that sort of thing” he admitted.

In all honesty, he appreciated the help that she was giving him +

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

Joey raised an eyebrow for a second, “I think that-“ he stopped himself and shook his head ever so softly. It was stupid, it was really stupid. But he wouldn’t admit that out loud.

“It’s always been that way in my family” he whispered softy.

[── .✦ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐍𝐀𝐊𝐄 @xlethalbite]

"That sounds silly.ᐟ" she replied with a huff. "Feelings should be expressed while they last".

Maybe she was talking it a little personal. For she knew her own feelings had an expiration date. Sometimes she forgot the world and people would remain the same even when she >

her with a smile on his face. “Plus, I’m sure nobody would be right now. I’ve heard it’s difficult” he admits honestly.

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

“Oh damn” he responded to that, his head to the side ever so slightly as he listened to her words.

For a second he stopped walking, of course he didn’t know the reason behind her saying that but he gently shook his head “I’m sure that’s not true” he admits trying to reassure +

[── .✦ 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐍𝐀𝐊𝐄 @xlethalbite]

"Both.ᐟ" She said cheerfully. "It can be my own or others, it doesn't matter I can still feel it. Even when my reserves full" she smiled brightly.

Her pace was calm, she was enjoying this walk.

"Huh, yeah... I probably wouldn't be a good mom tho" she grimaced.

It wasn't >

[𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙻 𝙸𝙽 𝙳𝙸𝚂𝙶𝚄𝙸𝚂𝙴 @Howlisims]

He should have guessed it was…

Though he’s completely unaware of the laughing as he’s peeling them off.
