[ clill time ]

Did people tell you about it? [ he does not know how to play with dogs but he tries to pet one, poorly. ] Too bad the cat cafe is empty, that one was just as good.

[midway]

We heard you all talking about it often.

[ Watches this. ]

I'm Claude, by the way. I feel like I should give you a proper introduction.

[blink_gone]

[ gives this corgi a gentle scritch, like for a cat. ]

Oh, yeah. I'm Till. Nice to meet you, uh... properly.

[ and not as a corpse or rude letter exchanges. ]

Guess this is the third time we've met, kinda.

[midway]

So it is. Which meeting is your favourite so far?

[ Crouches next to him to also give pets... Fond. ]

[blink_gone]

[ okay, he lets out a coarse little huff of laughter. ]

Tough choice? But I gotta go with this time.

[ the corgi rolls over, wiggling happily in the grass. till's thoughts are very complicated, like woah...... corgi belly... ]

It's not too weird being back, is it?

[midway]

It's a little weird.

[ It's kind of easy to talk to Till because he has zero context. ]

Kind of like... not really knowing you fit in a place.

[blink_gone]

[ because my app didn't trigger until after you died

he raise a brow as he pets the dog. ]

Why wouldn't you fit in? Aren't you all here for the same reason?

[midway]

[ you're so freaking rude ]

Right. But some of us are murderers.

[blink_gone]

[ awkward pause while he scratches his neck. ]

I mean, so am I. [ even if he didn't pull the trigger, he definitely didn't give his opponent any shot at surviving. ] Not that I think you should go around killing people for fun, but...

[ so many people here are mass murderers actually ]

[midway]

[ Smiles at him. ]

So I have your forgiveness...?

[ They don't even know each other. ]

[blink_gone]

[ don't smile. that's an ivan smile and it makes him an enemy. scowls and pinches his cheek. ]

I forgive you for sending me a rude letter, you shit.

[ there is no malice here though, he doesn't have any stock in ~forgiveness and redemption~ when he's been here a week. ]

[midway]

[ DON'T ASSIGN HIM IVAN SMILE? HE WAS HERE FIRST also ow

endures this because he is a big strong man ]

Aren't you being a little harsh with me? I did go through the traumatic experience of dying and coming back.

[blink_gone]

[ same brand of smile.... also everyone here has died and come back so he just scoffs a little. ]

I gave you a hug, didn't I?

[ his feelings are gentle though. it does suck to die. ]

[midway]

[ IT IS STILL TRAUMATIC... be nice to him ]

You did. That was pretty bold... But not entirely unwelcome.

[blink_gone]

[ this is as nice as he gets

lets go of claude's face to wiggle his fingers threateningly at him like a doofus ]

What, you want another one?

[midway]

[ This kid... He's so baby. ]

Maybe. Are you offering?

[blink_gone]

[ HE'S NOT A KID he's just normal, unlike everyone else here.

anyway he hugs him. ]



Why does this keep happening.

[midway]

[ LOL

accepts this... uwah.... ]

Am I your favourite here...?

[blink_gone]

We've only just met!

[ and yet he is forced to maintain this tender embrace. uwah. ]

S-Sorry...

[midway]

[ he is such a freaking bottom... ]

It's alright. I think you're more upset than I am.

Even though I think I'm pretty comfortable to hug.

[blink_gone]

[ while i cannot deny this, you established claude as the omega ]

It's not about that!

[ he likes hugs... it is comfortable...... just awkward. ]

I swear I'm not some... weirdo!

[midway]

[ It is comfortable...

Sets his head on his shoulder and dozes. ]

[blink_gone]

[ DON'T JUST IGNORE HIM oh my god. he screams internally but otherwise? lets him take a nap? claude's had a long day... ]

[midway]

[ There's no way Claude would sleep around a stranger but it is comfortable like this.

After a while. ]

You could just leave me here, you know.

[blink_gone]

[ as long as my sweet claude is comfy cozy. anyway, what is a little skinship between men. this is fine.

I'm comforting you, asshole? ]

So could you.
