”Ah, that’s… Peculiar. I can see why that would be worrying… Perhaps they learned about it from some of the others?”

Shadow, uh… Happy birthday. I heard about it from Charmy and wanted to tell you.

@the-devoted-ninja

"Uh... Thank you. Surprised he even knew about it, it's not like we interact all that much."

[the-devoted-ninja]

You’re a hopeless romantic but you love from afar. You can't be hard to love if you didn't try yet.

You want love more than you’d ever admit out loud. Not just the idea of it—the real thing. The kind that sits with you in silence and still feels full. The kind that remembers your favorite songs and the way you take your coffee. You crave it like air, like warmth, like something you’ve always been meant to find but somehow never reached. It lingers in the corners of your mind, showing up in daydreams and quiet moments, in the way your heart stirs when no one’s looking. But you haven’t tried it. Not really. You’ve kept love at arm’s length, admired it like a painting in a museum—close enough to feel moved, never close enough to touch. There’s someone, always one person, who catches your eye more than the rest. Someone who seems to glow a little brighter, who lives in your thoughts even when you don’t mean to invite them there. You play scenes in your head like a favorite film—how they’d smile at you, how they might look if they stayed. You study them like they’re a secret meant just for you. You know their laugh without ever having made them laugh. You remember what they wore on days they didn’t even see you. You assign meaning to moments that never happened. And still, you never say a word. You stay back, rooted in safety, watching from the shadows of your own longing. It’s not that you don’t want more. You just don’t know how to cross the distance between knowing and being known. Part of you is convinced that the fantasy is better than the risk—that loving from afar is cleaner, safer, less likely to break your heart. Because from a distance, they’re perfect. From a distance, you don’t have to be vulnerable. You don’t have to wonder if they’ll look at you and not see the same magic you see in them. So you stay where you are, tucked behind invisible walls, hoping they’ll notice but never stepping forward. You tell yourself it’s enough just to feel something. That maybe one day, something will change. But until then, you carry that quiet yearning like a hidden flame—small, steady, and burning just for them.

Are You Hard to Love

Yes, you're overly-obsessed

You have a gift, or maybe it’s a curse—you see people not as they are, but as they could be. You polish the rusted edges, patch over the cracks with gold in your mind. Flaws become quirks. Mistakes become moments. You rewrite their stories with gentler endings. You see wreckage and call it rare. You turn every shattered piece into something worth saving. You think the best of them, always. No matter what they say. No matter what they do. Even when they forget you. Even when they don’t deserve the pedestal you build beneath their feet, you still hold it steady, worshipful and unwavering. Loyalty isn't something you offer—it’s something you are. You give without limit. You stay when others would run. You forgive before apologies even arrive. And you do too much. You love too hard. You bend until you're unrecognizable, all in the name of closeness. You carry their burdens without being asked, offer your light when they haven’t earned your warmth. It’s overwhelming. It’s relentless. It’s terrifying. You scare them away. Because people aren't used to being seen like that. They're not used to being held so tightly by someone who never doubts, never questions, never flinches. Your love doesn’t leave space to hide. And some people aren’t ready for that. Some people mistake devotion for demand. They think your faith in them is pressure. They feel exposed by your belief. You see them as holy. But they are not gods. They're human—confused, inconsistent, tired. And no human can survive being deified. Not for long. They will falter. They will fall short of the portrait you've painted of them. And when they do, it won't just hurt you—it’ll undo something inside them, too. Because deep down, they know they’re not as good as you think they are. They can't be. And they wonder when you’ll realize that. They wonder what happens when the illusion fades, when you finally see them without all the light you wrapped around them. Will you still stay? Will you still care? They don't believe you will—not really. But you would. That’s the tragedy. You already know they’re human. You just love them anyway. Fiercely. Fully. Recklessly. And maybe, just maybe, that kind of love isn’t wrong—but it needs somewhere to land that won’t shatter under its weight. Because not everyone can hold what you give. Not everyone wants to. Only something eternal could survive that kind of devotion. Only something divine. And you keep offering it to mortals. That’s why they leave. Not because you’re too much—but because they know they can never be enough for what you

”But I-“ *He stops, huffing. He knows there’s no changing Vanilla’s mind about this. It would just be easier to let her cook for him. His scales turn pinker.* “…okay…”

🍴 Cook for your muse. 

Vanilla to Espio (She wants to cook for her found family 🥺)

@pinkie-h4ro-b3d2ss

“Vanilla, I can cook for myself. I do it often,” *Espio says, watching Vanilla in the kitchen with pinkish scales. He’s 16; he can do this himself.* “You really don’t have to cook for me…”

[the-devoted-ninja]

*He pauses, and sighs softly before sitting down and picking up a book. He had time, so he’d stay while Teal rested.* “Alright. I won’t.”

🏨/p ( @team-dark-personality-hire

”…You should be taking better care of yourself,” *Espio says softly as he lifts Teal into his arms, carrying him over to the couch and laying him down. He lays a blanket over him and tucks him in.* “…Sleep well.”

[the-devoted-ninja]

🌼 @ask-starlight-the-bear

”Ahem…” *Espio clears his throat, avoiding eye contact as he holds out a small bushel of flowers. His scales are pink, as is his muzzle.* “…here. I thought you’d like these…”

We've been holding up well, thank you. We've gotten a lot more work in the recent years, which I'm thankful for.

Mighty? I had no idea you were on here... I haven't seen you in forever.

@the-devoted-ninja

Oh! Heya, Espi! Haven’t see ya in a while… how’re you and the others holding up?

[the-devoted-ninja]

Do you have any regrets?

…I have many. None that I’ll be saying. *He crosses his arms.*

devoted, yearning & obsessive

❝ you occupy my thoughts. day and night, even in dreams you're there. i want you to never stop haunting me. ❞

❝ i am eternally yours. until the stars go out. and maybe, even after that. ❞

❝ my heart bleeds the color of your soul. i would cut it out and put it in your palms if i could. ❞

❝ it's like you have knit yourself around my ribs. i could no more cut you out than i could remove my own lungs. ❞

❝ you are woven into my soul and i dare not cut a single thread. ❞

❝ i am yours, body and soul, to do with as you wish. ❞

❝ i don't require you to love me back, or to care for me as i do you. only let me be here, let me devote myself to you. that would be enough. ❞

❝ i want to trap your smile in a bottle and take it out when no one else can see. ❞

❝ you belong to me and i to you. ❞

❝ do not look away from me. i cannot bear it when i do not occupy your vision. ❞

❝ i will follow you. to the ends of the earth, to the very gates of hades and whatever might lay beyond. ❞

❝ i will always be here. no matter how far you go you can always come home to me. ❞

❝ tell me all the places you have been hurt, every rejection, every scar. let me love you in all the places where you have burned. ❞

❝ i will not ever let you go. ❞

❝ you cannot escape this. you cannot run away from the love we share. ❞

❝ what we have is deeper than words could capture. ❞

❝ i will be anything you desire. i pluck out the parts of me you find distasteful and stuff your love in the craters left behind. ❞

❝ tell me what you wish of me and i will do it. ❞

❝ i could spend all day merely watching the air in your lung. i would count every blink. i would cherish every sigh from your lips. i could watch you merely exist for the rest of my life. ❞

❝ don't let go of me. i think if you lost me i would die. ❞

❝ i will cut out the tongues of every man who has wronged you. ❞

❝ i wish i could crawl inside you and make a home out of the hollows of your bones. ❞
