“ Kaufmo ? “ concerned voice . it’s gangle, coming to check up on her friend . though, maybe now’s not a good time . . .

“ did okay . . . had a little trouble, but it’s fine . glad you had a good night . . . “ and within seconds, that confidence is gone . traded in for sadness . ribbons now hiding behind their coil so it wasn’t obvious . she can’t help but feel sad all the time . . .

// Headcanon : gangle’s been reading manga since she was 13. she actually had the dream of one day moving to Japan and becoming one of the first foreign mangakas . but she could never afford it .

she knows that look . the look of someone who’s inches away from the horror of abstraction . someone so obsessed with leaving that it consumes them . . . maybe that’s why she’s running to him, quickly wrapping her ribbons over him like a protective blanket .

gently embracing him, ribbons running over his back for any kind of comfort . “ kaufmo . . . it’s okay . . . “ trying to ignore her own tears . it’s hard, but she’ll manage . she can’t let him feel lonely .

// my existence switches from sad to crack to sad again and im so here for it ☺️

“ oh . “ slowly pulling away out of sudden embarrassment, shaking her head at the question . “ no, I just . . . was scared you would . . . “ unable to actually say it, using free ribbons to wipe her tears away .

“ I know, I just got scared . . . “ carefully wrapping a ribbon over one of his hands . he didn’t need to comfort her . she’s used to this .

// hi guys! I promise I’m not ignoring yall, I’m just busy at work, so replies will either come tonight or tomorrow for anything I owe 💖

// okay, went through people and softblocked the minors, but guys, imma be so honest . why did I have to verify a few people by seeing who yall interacted with ? that shouldn’t be the case, everyone should have some kind of age indicator on their account somewhere . /gen
