[Text]

D --> I apologize to anyone who had to deal with me while I was under the influence of the curse
D --> I was not myself
D --> Normally I am not so
D --> Outgoing

[Translation: "Normally I do not try to get into the metaphorical pants of everyone I interact with. Oh good lord, strike me down now please."]

D --> I do hope you can all forgive me for the foolishness which occurred

[Action at the Highblood Hive]

[Hey, Gamzee, Equius. Guess who didn't come down to make breakfast? Guess who hasn't even come out of his room? Guess who even locked Dural out so that there is now a very aggravated lusus sitting outside of it, her feathers puffed up?]

[Daddy is not feeling well, kids. He knows you can take care of yourselves.]

Appreciiatiion ii2 unnece22ary.

[aim_exorable]

D --> It sounds rather ridiculous when you put it in such terms

Text (Regardless of how that cracked out thread goes, apology time!)

[zelda_hylia]

It's, ah, quite alright sir. None of us were exactly ourselves. Let us all just forgive and forget, yes?

[Especially with the forgetting. She wants to forget that she seriously thought about having children with a centaur.]

[private]

[aim_exorable]

D --> Yet I shall give it regardless

D --> Although this does remind me
D --> The curse has lifted now
D --> Are you fairing well?
d --> Is there anything troubling you?

Text (that cracked out thread is beautiful don't even lie)

[aim_exorable]

[Quick check of the name, doesn't this sound familiar...]

[Oh.]

[Welp, that sure knocked him straight out of Angst City and drowning in the Crippling Embarrassment Sea.]

D --> Yes
D --> Please
D --> Again
D --> I am so very very sorry that such a thing occurred
D --> Not to imply that you are not a very attractive and intelligent young woman of your race
D --> But
D --> That was
D --> I apologize

[aim_exorable]

[Alright, angst time over. 'Rails before pails. Darkleer is already getting up off of his bed in alarm.]

D --> What is the situation?
D --> I shall come to you as soon as possible

[bestestfurrend]

XOO < it is not!
:33 < it is the most furocious efur!

Text (Ok yes, pimpin' Darkleer is hilarious)

[zelda_hylia]

[Goddesses, he's embarrased now isn't he? That makes this more embarrassing! And she can't even bring herself to ask if the riddle referred to him, now! She'd just have to ask Signless later.]

As do I, for luring you there in the first place. No harm was done, so please do not trouble yourself on my account.

[Y u p. Just going to tuck the SFC away and hang her head in shame now...]

[aim_exorable]

D --> As you say

[private]

[p2iioniicii2t]

II cannot 2ay.

[ And he has to let Darkleer come to his own conclusions as to what that statement means. He literally couldn't, not unless the Condesce willed it. ]

Upon returniing two my oriigiinal form, II have experiienced a great deal of emotiional turmoiil.
Plea2e do not trouble your2elf wiith thii2 2y2tem.
IIt

II am not worth your iimmediiate concern.

Text (he was hot, don't even deny it)

[aim_exorable]

D --> Forgive and forget
D --> Yes
D --> Good day

[Going to do the same...]

[private]

[aim_exorable]

D --> Has the Orphaner been hassling you again?
D --> Blasted fool
D --> I will speak with him then

D --> You are under my care system
D --> It would be a dishonor to not consider your state
D --> I will make my way to your hive with due haste
D --> When I next contact you, please exit as discretely as you can

[private] god I love the santa hat icons

[p2iioniicii2t]

Plea2e, do not.
IIt ii2 not my place two reque2t thii2, but do not confront hiim.
Plea2e.
Nothiing 2hould have been 2aiid.
Thii2 2y2tem wiill be well.
IIt ii2 not a matter that requiire2 iinterventiion.

[private] I admit they have a secret spot in my heart

[aim_exorable]

D --> I will be there shortly Helmsman

[That lack of color is not a good sign. Immediately, Darkleer opens the window in his room and absconds from the hive he shares with the children in a manner most stealthy. Now to make his way to the communal hive the other lives in...]

[bestestfurrend]

:33 < ill show you XPP
:33 < youll s33

[aim_exorable]

D --> We shall see indeed

[private]

[p2iioniicii2t]

Locatiion: roof of Larmliine Apartment2.

[ And hopefully Darkleer doesn't mind coming up there rather than having him come down. The Helmsman is sitting on the rooftop, his knees drawn up to his chest.

Whoops, accidentally BSODing now. ]

[hexywitch]

Oh, don't be ridiculous, Darkleer. You were wonderful. At least so far as our interactions are concerned.

I'm sure we're all quite relieved that things have returned to normal, regardless.

[private]

[aim_exorable]

[With how quick Darkleer can be, he's there in minutes. There shouldn't be a need to take the stairs, considering how high he can jump, but he might crash through the roof in that course of action. So the stairs it is. When he finally arrives, he doesn't waste any time. In a heartbeat, he's besides the Helmsman, pulling him close and pressing a hand to his face.]

I'm here. Status report?
