[uh duh, just get used to heartbreak]

It's more the people than the place. But, yeah. Isn't Bluebell a home for you?

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

Probably not quite in the same way as you and Lily...

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

Why are you so...

[radiating an air of mild annoyance]

Lily can be your home too then.

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

[ NOT QUITE THAT EITHER, ]

"So" what?

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

So annoying. Do you not want a place to call home?

[ "SO ANNOYING" ACCUSES WORLD'S MOST ANNOYING MAN

Reaches over to flick him in the forehead ]

You should worry less about me. Like I said, I'm happy.

[mykidisthebest]

[HE CAN BE A HYPOCRITE IF HE WANTS TO

lets himself be flicked in the forehead, but he WILL aggressively poke Minuet in the cheek in return]

You didn't answer the question! This is what's annoying.

[GRABS THE COUCH PILLOW AND SMACKS HIM WITH IT]

Answer the question, Minuet!!!

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

[ DUCKS UNDER THE BLANKET ]

--OW, OW, hey!! Remind me what the question even was!!

[gives him another halfhearted smack with the pillow before stopping]

Do you not want a place to call home?

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

[ Lowers the blanket a little, cautiously ]

. . . Someday.

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

[...puts the pillow down]

When's it going to be "someday"?

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

When I can put my gun down, I think.

It's not something anyone needs to worry about.

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

You're never going to put your gun down. Stupid.

It's not fair for you to say no one else needs to worry about it, either. That's not how life works. We care about you, so of course we're going to worry about it.

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

That's not true!

[ maybe ]

I've just -- got some loose ends to tie up, that's all. You know that.

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

[nudges Minuet's shoulder with his own]

I know that. It's because I've also got loose ends to tie up that I know you won't stop. There's always going to be something else that comes up. Don't make excuses and don't say "someday." Someday is too late.

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

... What exactly do you think I should do, then?

[ genuinely ]

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

...I'm not the best person to ask. But, don't run away. Don't put off things you'll regret not saying. And if you find a place you're happy, it's okay to settle down there. Even if it's only for a while.

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

[ pff ]

I think I've run my fat mouth plenty here, don't worry.

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

Really? I feel like a lot of what I know about you I heard from Styx.

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

[ POT, KETTLE ]

That implies the things I might regret not saying are personal anecdotes, which seems untrue.

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

...

[tries to put him in a headlock]

Re: probably night 62

[featherduster]

[ This is very easy to do ]

--HEY!!!

Re: probably night 62

[mykidisthebest]

I want to know about it! I'm sure Charon does too. And Mute, and all of the rest of your friends. Don't be stingy.
