do you know what halloween is henwy? _(:3 」∠)_

Huh? Oh hi Tender

[fingers never gonna get over that. (More importantly, what is that series of characters... Henry doesn't get it.)]

No, I've never heard of halloween. What is it? Something funny?

itsa meee, your favorite birdyena ヽ(*・ω・)ﾉ

halloween's a holiday we celebrate during the fall! name of the game is to dress up in SCARY COSTUMES and be spooky for two months straight!!! pumpkins, asking for candy, tricking people and oh!

zombie flash mobs!!! your deal or definitely your deal?

Oh We kind of have that back in Ylisse. A spooky old time. We all it the Harvest Festival! Been to one in Ylissetol... some back in Plegia... One time even went to an extra-dimensional Harvest Festival. That was awesome. I love it when I get to kill things., there were real Risen in the Outrealms for the slaying. (Risen are basically zombies. REAL zombie flash mobs... mmmmm)

My deal. Definitely my deal. I'm spooky every month that ends in -y, -l, or -r, plus all of he ones that end in other letters.

wowza
do you kill things here????

No. I don't have my insta-kill curses and spooky magic here. Different stuff. It's a bummer. I make do.

so like voldy but with more hair. if you ever need to hide a body, i gotcha

[ you can just. hear him laughing menacingly through bondship. ]

you like spooky stuff regardless, huh??? i got a spook for you!

[Whom Is... voldy. Henry has no idea. It's fine. He supposes it's like that.]

I'l think of you if I find myself laden with a body I couldn't handle. But sure, impress me! I like a good harrowing tale. A bloody confession. A tale worthy of the gallows. Lay it on me like a cadaver cover.

check it out

[ tendou sens a picture of his eyes. in sepia, of course, but it's clear that his pupils are no longer as clear as they should be. ]

i'm a thriller :)

[Sepia-toned though all pictures are, it's pretty clear what the issue at hand is. Milky-white and undead, witnessing the living Tendou's irises in such a state doesn't precisely disturb Henry save for give him a jolt. The manner of his typing is lighthearted still, he notices, and it leaves Henry feeling similarly lighthearted.

And maybe, were this three years ago, the dark mage would remain totally unconcerned. But he's grown. A lot. There is an inkling of concern, and even from their distance, it's seeded. Rooted. There, tangible by Bond, but just out of his periphery. Henry's... not very good at feeling his own feelings.]

WOWZA

You actually sent chills down my spine. I have to congratulate you for that. I don't spook easy. You could fill my nostrils with the smell of rotting death and seat me in a room full of bodies you can't piece back together, and it'd feel like a second home. But that's freaky.

What kind of animals make up your Chimeric transformation, Tendou? Thought I saw cockatoo and huhhh something spotty. Wonder if they're cataracts? Ooooh, cataracts...

[An IDLE curiosity...]

[ tendou hadn't been concerned at first— not until he felt a trickle, like seeing a drop slide down his front window. aefenglom has been a surreal trip, a fantastical one that seemed too distant from his own reality for the chimera to take noteworthy unease. it all felt . . . hm. he felt disconnected from urgency, compared to most, but that had been grounded in his nature. to be a "monster" was nothing short of his own title, and to seem creepy was like being at home.

scaring people has become pride, and strength, and while he feels it, there's still . . . something, there, planted by the witch bond that commends him. was this alright? or nothing to worry about, as he had thought? hm.

he continues as normal. ]

i can still see crystal clear, bud. i thought i was 80% cockatoo, 30% hyena! so maybe . . . . 25% hyena, 5% zombie? wendigo? even tho i don't feel dead, that's silly.

I vote cataracts. Cosmetic cataracts. it's good you can see, cause I don't know a thing about fixing eyeballs. Not with a rusty scalpel OR a spell, and if I'm your bonded, iwanna look out for you.

[Henry's dad instincts... husband instincts?? Friend instincts... yeah. (Tendou's older than him.)]

So if you see fine, I guess there's nothing to worry about, right? Unless you don't like it. DO you want me to tell you you're pretty? Because you're a pretty pretty chimera anyway, milky eyes or not.

[ so tendou is daddy ]

am i a gorgeous homie

[tendou is daddy...???]

A most beautiful homie. What's a homie, anyway?

[ cursed but yes ]

oh, damn i didn't tell you
that's just my long time nickname
it means "i could trust this guy so much i'd marry him" ( ๑‾◡‾́)

[is this a weird dad bond]

Awwww hahahahahaha you're going to make me blush Tendo

[it's time to call tataru "homie" too...]

No wonder we're bonded. Til death do us part. Say,do you have any more Bonds yet?

in sickness and in health ໒( ͡ᵔ ▾ ͡ᵔ )७

[ dad/dad bond ]

but i surrrrre do! mikasa ackerman, fae, honey to my bee, monster/monster powerteam . . . a queen. think she and tatarurururu hang out a ton!

Oh hey! I know Mikasa! Met her at the outpost a few times. She's a serious Fae all right. GTalk about a small world. I thiiink Ive heard Tataru talk about her. Our homies...

["bonds" are "homies" right?]

if i had a chance, i'd ask her out again. on a real date, but. alas . . . i'm ok with being a homie.

What, are you chicken as much as a cockatoo? Or

[Sent. Then:]

Oh no. Is she already married? Don't tell me she's married.

[please don't be a repeat of Cordelia, Tendou... pining over someone you can't have... Henry's PRAYING]

hey hey hey
no she's only soul married to moi
it's an instinct sorta thing? like having a pack except she's high and i'm low for as long as i live.

Ohh THAT. Gotcha. That makes total sense.

[Henry, Raised By Wolves, understands this.]

Well, not saying to keep your hopes up, buuut who knows? Maybe she'll ask you on a date herself. Can't say no to the alpha.

hoo boy.... then i'll be waiting until i'm bones and dust! haha.

it's okay. we're good friends.

That'sgood. Especially if she's not the type, even if she feels all your feelings,seeing as you're Bonded and all. I'm pretty sure Tataru would needle me about EVERYTHING if it were me with the feelings aplenty. She could do it literlaly since she makes me clothes all the time too, yeesh. All those pins.

[She probably doesn't because it might be mutual, maybe, he thinks?? Surely it is, if she gave him her ring size........?!]

that's right! i can ask tatarururu!

thanks henwy!
