This started out as being fluff but ended in angst -- OOPS

Thats right more Stardew Valley AU -- Yes she has 12 siblings cause idk Ducks have a lot of ducklings

Also yall coulda just talked business partners, but we left our brain cells back home

Transcript under cut in case my handwriting is causing Crimes

Fakir: Duck..what do you look for in a partner... Duck: Huh? Like...a business partner, or a romantic partner? Fakir: Either I guess. Duck: Why you asking? Ya wanna enter a business venture? Or getting married? Fakir: Just making conversation Duck, calm down.

Duck: Hmmmm.....Well...to be honest....I never gave much thought to either of those things...but especially the latter. Fakir: City life that busy, was it? Duck: *sighs* No, that wasn't it. My family is kinda big. Big families sort of have a bad habit of getting in each other's business. A lot of love, but a lot of responsibility to go around, y'know? Fakir: Mm. Duck: I'm the youngest of twelve - while I was growing up, almost all my siblings were basically starting their lives elsewhere. I was always helping gramps, or my parents.....I don't know - nothing ever came up with the whole romance thing....

Duck: So I have a hard time imagining what I'd want, when I don't even know what I'd want, y'know...if that even made sense, ha ha! ...... besides. I don't think I'd make a very good girlfriend. Fakir: ?! Duck: - omigosh - that came out SO self-deprecating!! I just meant I don't think I'm ready for a relationship, I'm super forgetful, so I'd forget anniversaries 'n stuff, I'm not very responsible - tho I'm trying - but I'm also clumsy and have a hard time self - regulating - I-I think it just would be a lot to deal with!

Duck: A-Anyway, that's what I meant...by that... Fakir: ...... You're right. You are all those things.

Fakir: But by that standard...of being clumsy, forgetful, imperfect, no one would find love. Maybe someone likes when you get a little too excited. Someone might find your forgetfulness endearing or your clumsiness. There might even be someone who sees how hard you try and want to help you...

Fakir: They may even see parts of you that you overlook. Like how you're the first person to do something when someone is in need. Or how you stop your car in the middle of the road to move a turtle to the other side. Of they *chuckle* remember that just. Bonkers face you made when you caught that carp first try. If you waited until you wiped away all your imperfections...I don't think anyone would get to enjoy those parts of you. I get not being ready. Solitude is comfortable. I just think...imperfect...incomplete people, deserve a chance at love too. To deny that chance seems unfair....

Fakir: *cough* If...If i can like you just fine, then, um, someone else will definitely see what I see. Or whatever *m-hm* Duck: *is sobbing* Fakir: ! Oh - Duck

Fakir: Duck I'm -- Th-That was a lot, I'm sorry, that was my stupid writers brain kicking into high gear - I-I didn't mean to - OOF!

Duck: *through tears* No one - has ev-ever - been so n-nice to meeeee! Fakir: ....No one.....ever told you .... you were worthy...? Duck: Y-Y-YEAAAAAaaaaa

Fakir: ssshhhhh....It's okay Duck....It's okay.....It's okay...
