[grinning widely at him. the nuzzling is so cute and the sound even more so.] too much responsibility and not enough time to do the work you love, huh? i get it, i get it. i like you a lot too, rocky. sorry i'm still — so awkward sometimes. still working through stuff.

yeah, that's a better way. i guess it's closer to what we had on eden but we still had a 'leader'. [if he could roll rocky to spoon him, he would. alas, laziness.] but if they suddenly want a leader, i'll back you up. [teasing.]

⠀ ← mad as hell. ⠀

humans evolved a little too fast, rocky. and when assholes get a power rush with no one equal to them to fight back, they start thinking other people aren't worth a second of their time. [briefly wonders about erid.] you guys got leaders here?

if rocky leave early, adrian will come find and then put rocky in nest for many many sleep cycles. good night, sweet rocky. [it's mostly a tease than a threat. a little huff and soon, adrian is growing still — relaxed properly for the first time in a long time.]

searching for his cardigan .. hmm.

all society is the same. they don't care until they got some use out of you. [can't help the little bitterness considering it's only been a few weeks since he's slipped right through and survived with their help.] don't trust the ones who ignored you until now, rocky.

of course i do. you're blunt and honest. you got no idea how many people can't even be one of the two. [a little stretch but he's all noodles for now.] who wouldn't like you?

oh. shit, you scared me. i thought you meant i was experiencing a heart attack or something. [slumps right back, all tension gone.] i guess i just couldn't hide that i noticed you coming over.

[settling a hand on rocky while his brow furrows tightly.] my heart? changed how?
