I feel like I should apologize for this. :/a

[Open doors are an invitation to Xigbar. But for that matter, so are closed ones. When he noticed the grocery bags at the door, he bends down. Not, mind you, to gather them up and bring them inside, but rather to rifle through them until he finds something good to eat.

Finally, after finding and stealing a banana, he flips inside the apartment. A short flicker of white at the door is evidence enough that little Snipe is there, like a look-out.]

You don't seem your normal, chattery self today.

Skinny old man works this coat.

[He lets the darkness form into a little ball on the palm of his hand, before it collapses again and he looks at Isa with a grin]

Lets just say I've got trouble getting used to these baby blues of you again.

He does indeed <3

[He tenses at those words. They confirm what he guessed. Yellow eyes like him. He's up in moments, glaring at Xigbar with so much hatred.]

Why are you telling me this!?

[darkest_horse]

That's right. Keep that look and you'll be changed in no time.

[Xigbar just grins at him, not moving from his perch even when Isa flies up to glare at him.]

/Uses shiny new icons

[beforemoonfall]

That doesn't answer my question.

[Though what Xigbar just said leaves him feeling highly uncomfortable. Keep it together, Isa. Calm down and don't let him get to you.]

yay shiny new icons \o/

Just wanted you to know that maybe you shouldn't judge the cat too much. After all, you'll be like him someday soon as well.

[He would be enjoying this scene if only he had a heart.]

Unless you think you can change your own future.

[Be like that guy? That causes his stomach to tie into knots. He doesn't want that, not at all.]

I refuse to become like that!
