"Hey, Logan? I heard you crying from next door. Is everything alright?"

Logan glanced up at his roommate with red, puffy eyes. "It's ridiculous, Patton. Do not concern yourself about me."

Patton grabbed the tissues from the living room just outside and returned to hand them to the clearly upset man. "Your feelings are not ridiculous. And you're always welcome to talk about it with me."

Logan sniffed. "Really, Patton. I'll be just fine. I've just... lost something."

He frowned a bit. "Oh. Was it something important to you?"

Logan's eyes welled up. He nodded and hid his face with the collar of his shirt, slowly beginning to rock back and forth.

Patton so badly wanted to reach out and hug him. But he remembered his roommate vividly stating he had his own boundaries and expected them to be respected. "Is there any way I could help you look for it?"

Logan let out a silent sob before shaking his head. 

"I'll miss him so much, Patton."

Patton stared in confusion before looking at the empty cage by the window. Then he started to cry. "Oh."

um, so, i was thinking about how sad i am that rats, even domesticated, well-cared-for, and healthy, have such short life-expectancies (five years at the healthiest. the oldest, named Rodney, died at seven, and was under extremely unique circumstances). and i wanted to cry really bad. so i calmed down with platonic/romantic/queer-platonic Logicality. because i miss them.
