[The audio feed crackles for a moment, like whoever is going to start speaking has to psyche himself up to do it. Then there's a deep sigh, and...]

Feferi Peixes is no longer in the bubble. I guess... I guess she went home.

[There's another moment of silence, and then the feed cuts out.]

[God.]

[Fiddling.]

[Darnit.]

[That's not fair!]

...Just try not to address me that way in public.

[stayb100ponyboy]

So I can call you that when we're at home?

[Why yes, he is perking right up, how kind of you to notice!]

[aim_exorable]

I suppose there is little harm in that.

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Pounce!]

[Guess who is getting hugged again? Go on, guess!]

Thanks... Dadleer.

[So it's still a pretty terrible day, all things considered. But this... this makes it a whole lot better.]

[aim_exorable]

[oh]

[welp]

[Again with the hugging.]

[He must be doing something right, then. And if it's for Equius... Well. Darkleer places his hands on the youth's shoulders in return and rubs them slightly.]

[If it's for Equius, maybe it's worth suffering a little embarrassment.]
