Do you like Cubesy and forgive him for all the bad things he’s done, Flaps and Runiel? I believe that Flaps once described him as a good person with bad methods, and he has done things like out Runiel as a player, but he has made sincere effort to improve himself and he doesn’t deserve to die. If you two weren’t tired, would you have tried to prevent this mess from happening and protect Cubesy? Also, is Eight’s cat still with you? I think you should keep it; you two are far better owners for it.

* we do forgive him, yeah. he’s been a good friend to us.

* { that whole ordeal still… stings. but it overall didn’t really make too much of a mess of things. }

* { he’s been making the effort to redeem himself through this all… he’s a good person. he’s made a lot of mistakes, but he’s a good person. }

* on the matter of if we would have tried to help… we did, honestly. when we caught wind of what was going on, we did try to offer him this place as a sanctuary away from eight…. but he didn’t want to stay.

* { unfortunately we didn’t do much beyond that. it used to be talked about a lot in the group chat, but…. we couldn’t really speak up towards eight or anyone else about it in there. }

* the cat’s still here, though, yeah. i don’t plan on giving it back to eight anytime soon, not unless he shows that he can commit to taking care of it.

* secret’s safe with me. 😛

* you think you might be able to get insoles for your shoes? i’ve heard that could work wonders. beyond that i’m not sure what else i can suggest, aside from talking with a doctor about it. x:

After this whole mess is over, if Eight tries hard enough to make up for his mistakes, will you forgive him? Do you even want to associate with him anymore, let alone be friends?

* That’ll depend on if he actually tries.

* I told him I’d be willing to stay friends with him, and offer this as a safe place for him, but he’d damn well better prove that he’s working to make up for all this crap he’s caused before I’ll let him anywhere near this place again, let alone talking to him on friendly terms again.

* It’s all on him. I’m not one to go back on my word.

* I don’t think I’ll actually forgive him – he’s done to much to deserve that – but I would want to work with him to right the wrongs that have been done, provided that he actually Wants to try to do the work needed.

Flaps, you know who Nix is, and you know he’s Cubesy’s boyfriend, right? I’m worried what will happen to Nix if Cubesy’s dies….I’m worried he will do something drastic to his life, despite what he says….would you be willing to offer him a shoulder to cry on and a place to stay? I know it’s a lot to ask, especially because you’re so exhausted, but I think a friendly fellow like you could get Nix back on his feet.

* nix is a friend of mine, yeah – he actually got me prosthetic ribs a while back and has been here off and on a couple times.

* this being said,

* i’m not sure i can actually rightfully offer him a place to stay. it is a lot to ask considering my own energy levels, and while i do feel bad that i don’t feel like i can provide that, i’d rather outright say that than to make a promise that ends up being way more detrimental in the end.

* if he seeks me out, then yes, i’m more than willing to be a shoulder to cry on and a support for him, but i don’t have the energy to be going out of my way to do so and worrying about if he’ll even answer or not.

* i’m sorry if that sounds like…. harsh, at all. i’m just really tired, you know? i can’t be looking out for everyone like i used to, that’s what landed me in this perpetual exhausted state in the first place. x:

((Hey there mun! I’m the anon that sent you those asks overnight a little while ago. I thought you could use some more! Also, the “nobody likes a crybaby” part is a reference to one of the lines in BattleBlock Theatre. It’s a real funny game, and I highly recommend it. I hope you’re doing well, and I hope your muses recover from their exhaustion! And don’t worry; just because your muses might not be as active as before, it doesn’t mean they aren’t relevant and not in our thoughts!))

( ohhh- thank you! ;v; i really appreciate the message. things have been kinda hard for me as of late, and it’s been hard to get flaps or room out and doing things – but it’s nice to know people havent forgotten about us.

ill definitely try to get them more active eventually, but it may take time. thank you so much for the messages!!! it means a lot to me. )

Flaps, with all these shenanigans with your friends going on, and your place being a safe haven for them, you remind me of Hatty from BattleBlock Theater (/watch?v=xx2lZsSpyC8). Have you ever played that game? Hatty had lots of friends too, but a huge storm blew them all away! Hatty wasn’t able to help them, and things didn’t end well for him, but he didn’t have someone like Runiel on his side. Things may look bad, but keep your chin up! Nobody likes a crybaby. Also, would you like a hat?

* that video sure… was….. something…?

* i will say yeah, i know i’m fairly fortunate with the things i have access to – and having runiel around to help me out is a damn blessing, for sure –

* but i mean. if i’m being honest. “no one likes a crybaby”? Really? that seems pretty rude. sometimes crying happens, sometimes it HAS to happen, and there isn’t a thing wrong with that. like – i get you want me to cheer up, yeah, but saying that isn’t really the right way to go about it.

* but, uh. a hat sounds nice i suppose.

Oh? Mind telling us what’s going on? We’d like to watch three separate soap operas. I know one of them, the whole mess with Eight and the cube, but I’m unaware of the other incidents of which you speak. It’s hard to divert one’s attention everywhere, especially when you’ve got schoolwork to do…I hope watching all this drama hasn’t ruined your mood. Don’t feel bad about not being able to help, you can’t solve everyone’s problems. You just take care of yourself, you hear?

* { well, yeah, those shenanigans were part of what i was seeing. }

* { there was also… something about some muns freaking out. over. something? i wasn’t exactly able to pick up on what the hell was going on but i think it had something to do with that whole underveil thing. so. take that for what you will. }

* { the third wasn’t so much of a whole hoo-ha, though – a friend of ours finally showed up again so flaps was making sure to message him. it just felt like a lot was happening at once. }

* { but we aren’t…. really making a point to get involved in this stuff anymore. i mean, he’s run himself ragged just trying to pick up after people he’s close with, we aren’t really in a position to be reaching ourselves further to help people past offering a safe place to stay. }
