You don't seem like the kind of magician that needs an assistant.

[forcedtoplay]

Yeah, you're a really good friend.

...hey, Machika? If I did something bad, would you still be my friend?

[littlestdeath]

Of course! I'd be your friend no matter what. Don't ever doubt that.

[forcedtoplay]

Right. Of course. I was just being silly. Forget I asked.

[littlestdeath]

[You are getting hugs whether you want them or not!]

It's not silly. If there's something you're worried about, you can always talk to me about it.

[forcedtoplay]

[I want them. Lots of them :(]

Thank you, Machika. That means a lot to me.

[littlestdeath]

[I WILL HUG YOU AS LONG AS YOU NEED TO BE HUGGED]

I don't like seeing you sad.

[forcedtoplay]

[oh gosh she feels so guilty right now]

I know. I'll try not to be, okay?

[littlestdeath]

That's not what I meant. It's not something that you should hide or pretend isn't there, or just ignore it. Sadness isn't something you can just fix.

[forcedtoplay]

. . .then what am I supposed to do?

[littlestdeath]

I wish I knew. I'm still trying to figure that out myself.

[forcedtoplay]

[initiating spinning hug! You can't stay sad during a spinning hug.]

We'll figure it out eventually. Don't worry. We won't stop until we've figured it out, right?

[littlestdeath]

[Oh god stop that I'm supposed to be cheering you up]

You're right! I think the best way is to work through it in your own way. And love helps.

[forcedtoplay]

[yeah, well, I do what I want]

Love always helps. And we'll figure the rest out eventually.

[littlestdeath]

Right.

So, can I ask what brought this on?

[forcedtoplay]

I just remembered some things I had forgotten.
