[Well. You’re all in some kind of. State. A rather chagrined voice mutters on the wind;]

That isn’t quite how I envisioned it going…

[At any rate! There are new stars in the sky in ginger goldenrod, thyme apple and senna terracotta.

Well how are you all doing?]

Comments

[crimeson]

I'd like it, I think.

[fisherofmen]

[ . . . sitting right there, then ]

Okay.

[crimeson]

[randy's really... huge like this. he was huge already, but wolves are also just enormous, and he's an enormous wolf.

but he's carefully edging close enough to brush his furry side against cael.]

[fisherofmen]

[ actually when he gets close enough to touch him he goes right through, and up against mini cael's actual mini body thru the illusions ]

Comfortable?

[crimeson]

[oh.

that's... a little better, then.]

Mmhm.

[fisherofmen]

[ closes his eyes, leans a little more against him which means he can more feel small cael ]

Good.

[crimeson]

...

Is it tiring, hiding like that...?

[fisherofmen]

. . .

Yeah.

But it's better than being exposed.

[crimeson]

Is there somewhere you'd feel safe enough to stop?

[fisherofmen]

[ with a lofty shrug ]

You're asking for more than you realize.

[crimeson]

...Is it too much?

[fisherofmen]

. . . It's unpleasant. You won't want to see it.

[crimeson]

We're all pretty messed up...

1/2

[fisherofmen]

. . .

[fisherofmen]

You know, you sound like you're propositioning me. But I'm pretty small right now, so I can't really do anything all that exciting?

[crimeson]

... I'm a wolf?

[fisherofmen]

You can turn back, can't you?

[crimeson]

I can. Do you want me to?

[fisherofmen]

. . .

Do what you like. I don't care.

[crimeson]

... But you surely have a preference.

[fisherofmen]

[ stretching his arms out and above his head, before slumping against him - not quite relaxed ]

I don't.

[crimeson]

Not at all?

[fisherofmen]

I don't have things like that.

[ with a pause, some consideration ]

Well, though, this is pretty novel. This is fine.

[crimeson]

I'm not sure I'm keeping up...?

[fisherofmen]

You're fine as you are right now. Don't worry about it.
