“ I Do Not Mean To Aggravate
@criticalebwidogast. (x)
there’s an amount of HESITANCE in accepting the assistance— this , a STRANGER , & one that exudes a certain CHARGED aura - the sort of air of a being to which there’s more than meets the eye ;
( he rolled an 18 on his insight check. )
STILL, there’s a nod of APPRECIATION as the wizard is freed from the vines that made to GRASP at his legs , the vegetation falling limply aside under the ministrations of the white-haired young man - the foliage obeys without RESISTANCE , it would seem , leaving KEEN MIND to wonder towards the strangers relationship with the sentience of the forest .
“ i do not mean to aggravate the flora - ”
( it was just that he rolled a 5 on his dex save— )
“ - are these woods under YOUR care ?”
no one MEANS to aggravate the flora, it’s just something that happens in dox’s forest; particularly to strangers with a clear magical aura about them. lucky for dox’s plants ( and this stranger ) that he was around to INTERVENE before there was more reason for aggravation on either side.
“ mine? no. i mean, not really. ” standing once the vines have simply fallen back to the forest floor with no fight, shiro takes a step back, allowing the other some space. “ i just help. ”
rather than elaborate further on that, he offers a smile --- friendly, if a bit SHEEPISH --- and rubs at the back of his neck.
“ i don’t have any control over the plants or anything but they, uhm. they trust me. ”

People think that intimacy is about sex. But intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them and their response is “you’re safe with me” – that’s intimacy.

❛ It is the silence that drives me mad. The silence that drives the nightmares to me. ❜
❛ There is nothing between us but rain. There is nothing between us at all. ❜

❛ What if I am dead? How can someone without a beating heart, without breathing lungs live like I do? I must be dead. ❜
❛ I want to scream. I want to throw open my eyes wake up and not be alone with myself anymore, but I can’t. I can’t. ❜
❛ I will spend all of eternity trapped in my dead body. I will be locked within myself forever. ❜
❛ Should we wait? ❜
❛ Just give me a chance! ❜
❛ It’s bad, being frozen, but it’s better than waking up alone. ❜

❛ People are supposed to be like that: obedient, calm, working together. It’s us who can’t obey, can’t focus, who can’t work together, — we’re the ones who aren’t normal. ❜
❛ What were you running from? ❜
❛ It’s not like I’ve done anything wrong! ❜

❛ Everything is wrong here. Shattered. Broken. ❜
❛ I am surrounded by walls. I just replace one box for another. ❜

❛ I know I look different. But I’m just a person, like you. ❜
❛ I definitely think I’ve fallen into the rabbit hole. ❜
❛ I don’t like dreams. Sleep is too much like dying. ❜
