(( I survived midterms, but finals are coming up faster than should be legal, so while I'll try to be around more, no promises. I hope you guys are doing well though! ))

"S--sorry," she almost squeaked it, blushing some and realizing that her quiet confusion might be coming across as rude. "I know someone who looks a lot like you," she returned the smile sheepishly, but sweetly while offering a hand to shake, "I'm Latte, though, it's nice to meet you..."

Well that’s odd. He looked so familiar— in fact he looked a lot like Sollux. He was definitely a troll like he was, at least he looked like one. She looked up at the tall, almost older version of Sol and smiled sheepishly with a wave in greeting, unable to find the words to say ‘hi’ out of being a bit boggled at the resemblance. 

(( I’m sorry I’ve been quiet and missed you following! ))

(( Again, I'm sorry I've been quiet and gone! Midterms are over this week, so hopefully I might have time, maybe even soon-ish, to try to get some things in.

I've got to figure out why everyone's been gone, I'm leaning towards a mishap with Sam's abilities, maybe. ))

"That's what I'm here for," she teased gently, chuckling with a growing smile. She carefully secured herself on the ground, glancing down, then back up at him. "Considering you have to try to mesh what you consider to be relationships with what we do-- especially in our case when we're in one-- I still think you manage really well, Sol."

“Thank you, but…” You slow to a complete halt, landing on the ground with relative ease. “II thiink the only rea2on II’m doiing 2o well ii2 that you’re piickiing up the 2lack.”

(( Thank you! I appreciate it. It's just a ton all at once that I'm trying to juggle, and it's a little overwhelming. ;w; ))

(( I don't even remember if I've seen but this term is hitting me hard. Hence being very sparse. Sorry, guys! ))

"I'll try to help you muddle it out, then," she chuckled softly, glancing up at him with a softer smile. "I think you do pretty well, though," she added, leaning to peck his jaw.

“Well, iit’2 not alway2 EA2IIER 2iince 2ometiime2 iit can ju2t be confu2iing a2 fuck.” You explain, cruising closer to the ground as you neared her abode. You might as well check in with the others, wouldn’t do any harm.

Shoving his own concerns about himself and all this strangeness aside for the moment, Sam smiled reassuringly down at her, gently and playfully giving one of her pigtails a small tug. "Well, ya have your wish already then! 'cause that's all ya do, is make everyone happy, cherry pie. More than ya probably know. An' don' ever think any different, or let anyone else say anythin' different, okay?" 

She didn’t move for a few long moments, still tucked safely snugly against his chest. When she finally did speak, her voice was soft. Almost a whisper.

“Really?” Very slowly, she tilted back, and clasped her hands into his shirt tightly, looking up at him with red, puffy, tear-shiny eyes. “…That’s all I try and do. That’s all I want.”

[caffinatedconsultant-blog]

That answered whether she was going to bring that up.

"I understand, I mean it's easier to think about it in a way you're more familiar with," she assured with a small smile, just nodding, "Especially if raising kids or anything really isn't something that's usual for you guys."

“Ah.. II 2ee… 2orry, 2ometiime2 human relatiion2 tran2late faiirly well two quadrant2, better than you’d thiink, and iit’2 a biit hard two get a gra2p on occa22iionally, e2peciially 2iince iit’2 not even a 2ubject II’m very fond of two begiin wiith.” you explain. In fact you were fairly horrible with them. Matesprits and moirails vanishing or dumping you or whatever the hell they decided to hurt you with, it was never not a touchy or irrelevant subject to you.

Latte blinked when they stopped abruptly, looking up at him in mild confusion. "Fill a-- oh," she paused, thinking about this. "I guess I can see where that'd get fuzzy with what qualifies as the 'best friend' sort of position. And in a way, it could fit, I mean it's not odd for a kid to consider their mom or whatever one of their best friends. I think it's still different, but I guess I don't have a reasoning exactly, it just feels different than a close friend..."

This brought up the subject Morgan had called to question, whether or not Latte could have relationships like his quadrants, since he obviously had  them. And meeting the people in his and all of that... she chewed her lower lip some in thought.

The flight itself paused, and were the situation appropriate a car screeching to a halt would have sufficed as audio. Or maybe a record scratching, either way, you were caught off guard by her description, loving the kid, looking out for their safety, protecting them, keeping them from losing it. “Uhm… Latte… II have two admiit, that 2ound2 a biit odd, for 2omeone who’2 under your care two be treated liike that, hone2tly… II mean, II gue22 iit’2 a human thiing but II would have never expected an obliigatiion two fiill a quadrant wiith your own kiid2…”

"Well its... stressful. You're always worrying whether you're doing a good job, telling them the right things... you question yourself a lot because you want to be the best you can be for them, and be a good role model for them so they turn out okay. And of course just fussing over their well-being in general, them being safe... I'm probably over-protective, but after all she's been through it's hard not to be," she sighed before smiling softly, "it's all worth it, though, because you look at them and know that they're /your/ kid and how amazing that is to have them love you."

“Well, even he’2 better than nothiing II 2uppo2e.” You tease. “What’2 iit liike raii2iing 2omeone? IIt’2 not 2omethiing our culture’2 really famiiliiar wiith, beiing on the other end and all.”

"I think she's alright... she seems to be getting better. I'm a bit jealous, actually, Sam's ended up seeing her more than I have lately, but she does like seeing him a lot, so as long as one of us is there when she comes over it's fine," she shrugged her shoulders a little. She was going to have to see her soon, however, and assure for herself she was doing okay. And catch up one hugs, of course.

“IIt really would, wouldn’t iit?” You ponder, nodding along with your words. “How II2 Jubii? 2he’2 yet another per2on II haven’t 2een iin over a month…”

[caffinatedconsultant-blog]

"Why would ya say that, darlin'?" Sam frowned some while peering at her, running his his fingers through one of her pigtails soothingly. "You make everyone happy... your momma's never as happy without you around. An' you make me happy."

The last part came out before he could consider it. The fact that it was true was more than a little unnerving.

“It’s…it’s okay.” She didn’t lift to look at him. She only held him tighter, comforted that he returned the embrace. “I just…want people t’be safe and happy, and I’m not good and making people safe, and—and…!” 

She sniffled then, just holding onto him.

"It is pretty cool," she blushed some at the kiss, smiling more and peering around before looking back. "Someday you should take Jubi, she'd love this," she added, nuzzling closer "It'd be a nice way to bond, maybe."

==> Give up

“And now look at u2, fully-fledged mate2priit2” You add, giving her a gentle kiss. “We 2hould do iit more often, hm?”

[caffinatedconsultant-blog]

Relaxing at this, she eased and smiled some with a chuckle while glancing around. "Sooner or later I'll get used to it... it has, though, the last time we were just sort of becoming friends," she looked at him with a small grin.

==> Give up

You laughed, her reaction was quieter than last time. “Congratwolatiion2, you went from a 2urprii2ed yelp two ju2t a fliinch. What ii2 thii2, the 2econd, thiird tiime we’ve flown twogether?” You ask with a grin, holding her close as you flew on your back. “2ure ha2 been a long tiime eiither way, huh?”
