How do you tell the difference between romantic love and platonic love?

Everyone I've asked so far has given me a different answer.

[She doesn't understand this reference!!]

If you're sure! It's a pretty big deal to me.

[If only she did. He'd switch to video to do the whole BODY LANGUAGE bit.]

I love you all, well most of you, and I swear I explain the rules and you all just keep forgetting them.

Sigh.

I want a favor at a time and date of my choosing of equal or lesser value to the emotional response you give when I identify the emotions of the music. Deal?

[abnormalizes]

Okay, yeah, I can do that. That makes me feel better.

[melodymania]

Why? Honestly. I could have just done it as a friend for free until you said it was a big deal.

Legit curious here.

[abnormalizes]

Well... You know how my world is a capitalist hellhole, right? People don't do things for free. Especially not things they can leverage to get something out of. If someone's offering to do something big for free, that usually means they're getting something out of it that you don't know about.

I'd rather know what the cost is up-front than worry about what the cost might be. Even if I know logically that sometimes things in Ellipsa are just free, emotionally it's hard to accept.

[melodymania]

Riiiight. I guess I really should have remembered that. Alright. That makes 1000% sense.

Favor it is and your usual nos are all included in the limits of said favor, of course.

So. You got a person in mind or people you're working out your feelings for?

[abnormalizes]

Fajra and Barghest have romantic feelings for me, so it's most immediately important to know if I return them or not?

[melodymania]

How do you feel about introducing them to me? I can get a read on your music during that. And it's not sus at all.

[abnormalizes]

You've met Fajra already though! While you were possessing me.

[melodymania]

Huh. I'm usually so good with names.

Right. I very much remember her. Okay. So just need an intro for the other one. Then I can compare and contrast the sounds of the music.

[abnormalizes]

I can do that. Fair warning, the other fae on Barghest's world are kind of shitty, so she may take a while to warm up to you?

[melodymania]

That's totally fair. Most of the fae in my world are shitty so I get it.

[abnormalizes]

Then I'll ask her if she wants to meet you.

[melodymania]

Let me know.

[abnormalizes]

She says she's fine with it. Pop in whenever you're not busy.
