Flaps/Aspen-Today at 2:32 AM

* [He is behind Another Door. all curled up in his bed. TRYING TO BE QUIET BUT HE IS SNIFFLING A BIT,]
Ichimatsu-Today at 2:32 AM
[Ichi takes a step forward] Is it about proph?

* you miss prophet,,,, i understand it can be hard to be apart from someone you care about so much,
* d'ya wanna talk about it,?
Ichimatsu-Today at 2:37 AM
[Ichi sorta slides into the room too but doesn't go sit with flaps. He's not sure what he can do besides stand there.]
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 2:39 AM
* [hE CLINGS,,,,, the entire little space is jsut Blanket Hell. Extremely cozy! But hard to stand around in.]
* [In any case - he's got tears running down his face already, being hugged by empathy just lets the waterworks go.]

Empathy-Today at 2:41 AM
[ * !!! oh no,,, empathy uses his hands to Dry Those Tears, ]
* flaps i can assure you that you are worth it
* so many people care about you, me included
* im sure proph misses you just as much as you miss them!!
* it's just a matter of time until you get to see them again, okay?
* you are 100% worth it,,, you mean the world to so many,,, even if you feel like you're just being a burden or something, trust me, you're not
Ichimatsu-Today at 2:42 AM
YOu help more of us then we... really do anything for you. [Ichi rubs the back of his head...] I would have died at least twice by my own hands if it wasn't for you.... so....

* [He's.... Broken down sobbing. He can't properly get words out,,,,]
Ichimatsu-Today at 2:44 AM
[Ichi looks at empathy then back to flaps] It's fine to... rely on us once in a while.
Empathy-Today at 2:46 AM
[ * he holds flaps close, ]
* flaps. listen.
* you may be taking care of everyone, but
* you are allowed to be sad. you're allowed to be a mess, sometimes people need time to be a mess. sometimes, people wont feel better until they are a mess.
* it may be your job to take care of everyone i guess? but they can still take care of themselves slightly. you need to take care of yourself too
* even if that means putting everyone else on the back burner for a little bit
* im sure ichi and i would love to help you take some stress off,,
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 2:47 AM
* [wheezing noises. He's calming down a bit but. He is definitely still sobbing,,]
Ichimatsu-Today at 2:47 AM
[IChi is sitting on the other side of Flaps and puts an arm around the skeleton] Yeah..... you can be at least that selfish once in a while. You deserve it.
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 2:48 AM
* [CLINGS TO THAT BOY TOO]
* [Eventually the hiccups and sobs die down to where he can talk again,]

* [and there he goe s again.]
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:00 AM
It's okay to let yourself feel things. It's okay to cry, whatever you need to do. [He rubs Flaps' back not sure what else to say]
Empathy-Today at 3:03 AM
[ * Empathy opens his mouth to comfort Flaps more when he feels that familiar magic latch into his core and begin to meld and change his form, melting and shifting his form until he was an almost exact mirror image of Flaps, ]
[ * ... He feels like shit, ]
* oh,,
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:04 AM
[ICHI's eyes widen the widest they've ever been.] Empathy....????
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:07 AM
* [He's noticed the change - and it almost gets him to stop, but.... That last anon sends him into hysterics. He is Inconsolable,]
Empathy-Today at 3:09 AM
[ * Flapathy wishes he could explain what just happened to Ichi, but he Cannot,,, he's just as sad as Flaps is right now and, as expected, the anon is Also causing Flapathy to break down. ]
[ * His head is swimming with those intrusive thoughts, which just... cause him to cling to Flaps,,, ]
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:10 AM
* [It's a fucking sobbing party. Incredible,]
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:10 AM
[ICHI IS JUST NOT SURE WHAT TO DO.....].[he's panicking just a little] Umm...F-flaps... I uhhh.. well I mean, if you... weren't worth it. I.... probably wouldn't have come here.
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:11 AM
* [SADLY IT ISN'T HELPING,,,,, H E S TOO FAR GONE RN ICHI,,,]
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:12 AM

[ * HERE HE IS, RUSHIN INTO THE ROOM BEFORE SITTING ON THE BED AND HUGGING FLAPS AND EMPTHFLAPS ]
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:15 AM
[IChi freaking thankful for SP. Now he probably won't cry like he wants to]
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:15 AM
* [HE CLINGS!!! HES SO FUCKIN UPSET IT MIGHT BE A WHILE BEFORE HE STOPS SOBBING UNCONTROLLABLY,,,]
* [words of encouragement might help, though. just reaffirming that he's loved. things like that.]
SP/maes-Today at 3:16 AM
[ * OKAY. OKAY HES GOT A PLAN ON STUFF TO SAY ]
* Flaps... Maestro and Prophet care about you. Everyone does. But those two especially. They wouldn't be dating you otherwise.
Empathy-Today at 3:18 AM
[ * In turn, Flapathy Also Clings to his son-not-son,,, he manages to speak though. He is Burbling, ]

Ichimatsu-Today at 3:18 AM
[just intense unsurity about this] Umm.... I.... came here because I liked you... and wanted to be closer to you flaps....
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:20 AM
* [him wheeze,,,,, but he's starting to calm down some. The hiccups are dying down, the broken sobs ebbing away. It's slow, but it's progress.]
SP/maes-Today at 3:20 AM
[ * he rubs the sad dad's and the sad not-dad's backs. there there. ]
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:25 AM
[Ichi nuzzles Flaps a purring noise errupts from the boi]
Empathy-Today at 3:27 AM
[ * Sad Flapathy is burbling quietly and clinging to himself and his not-son, ]
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:27 AM
* [AND HE IS DOING BETTER... Only a few stray sniffles now and again.]
* i,,,, i im sor ry. i k wo you all care about me, i jsut,,,, i m. im not us ed to ebing so lo w for so lo ng. it s. gettign to me. ;;

Empathy-Today at 3:28 AM
[ * Soft gentle pats,,, ]
* i tsss okay you'reno t being a bother,,,

SP/maes-Today at 3:29 AM
* Dad, we honestly don't mind it at all. Besides, you and I did become friends for bein emotional support buddies, right? [ * smiles gently at flaps. ]
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:30 AM
we want to help you, it would be ungrateful of us to not put in the effort to be there for you.
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:31 AM
* [oH HES SMILIN AND CRYING AGAIN,,, But it's a good cry. Happy tears. He hugs these fuckers Tight.]
* th ank you,,,,,,,
* [He can't really muster up much else, but he really is grateful. He loves u guys.]
SP/maes-Today at 3:31 AM
[ * OH HES GLAD.. sp smiles, relieved, and hugs him tightly back. ]
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:36 AM
* [His breathing has leveled, for the most parts. A few shaky breaths here and there, but he's calmed down for the most part and he seems Exhausted. Still clinging though.]
Ichimatsu-Today at 3:39 AM
[Ichi is still purring, maybe slightly louder than before. He is relieved that things have calmed]
Empathy-Today at 3:42 AM
[ * Maybe due to the emotional instability, Empathy can't seem to hold the form anymore and changes back to normal... he's still clinging to Flaps, though. Gentle pats for the friend,, there are some things he wants to ask but that can wait. ]
Flaps/Aspen-Today at 3:42 AM
* [And wait they'll have to - Flaps passes out not moments later. Sleep well, lil skell.]
