So, um, hi!

[Evangeline seems more anxious than she normally does, but she's smiling, at least.]

Apparently, when you start dating someone, you're supposed to make some sort of announcement on the internet so all your friends know? At least that's what I hear. And I, definitely didn't do that! Three times over! So, um, oops?

I'm dating three people now! Fajra, Barghest, and Chipp. Um, things are going... well? They're going well.

[Honestly still not sure what she's doing but she's trying her best!!]

So, uh, yeah, that's it. ...Do you, like, open the floor to questions here or what...?

It saves you having to tell people individually, I suppose.

But... it is a big step for you, I think that makes it worthy of an announcement.

[abnormalizes]

It's a lot! Honestly, if you'd told me last year I would be saying this, I wouldn't have believed you? And it's still kind of scary in ways, but... I'm doing my best.

[snekeyes]

True, I never thought you would be comfortable with anything like this.

But, um... I am glad you have found an arrangement that makes you happy... even if it is a little frightening for you at first.

[abnormalizes]

Thank you! Personal growth and tackling trauma, woo.

[She pumps her fist a little.]

[snekeyes]

[Why so cute Evangeline gosh- she just wants to bite her even more!

But- would that be appropriate, now? Even Hijikata had wanted to take a break from things for a while when his relationship with his girlfriend was first established. Then again, even if it was appropriate, the nagging ache stubbornly clung to her heart at the thought.

Ngh, this was complicated.]

H-heh, it is difficult... but definitely a good thing.

...

So, what will you do now?

[abnormalizes]

[medusa express your thoughts and emotions challenge]

Right now? I think I will finish answering responses to this, and then when responses slow down I'm going to bury myself in a pile of blankets and decompress for an hour.

[snekeyes]

[What about horny dream manipulation- wait that's not using her words either!]

I can't blame you, answering this many questions must be exhausting.

[abnormalizes]

Answering questions, dealing with compliments... It's a lot.

[snekeyes]

You do deserve those compliments, though.

[Just saying.]

[abnormalizes]

...That's also a thing I'm working on? I'm better at accepting them than I used to be.

[snekeyes]

It is difficult... I suppose we both have things we need to work on.

But- ah- I probably should not take up too much more of your time.

[abnormalizes]

Oh - I still have time for you! Me dating people doesn't change that.

Okay Rider let's see how long you can keep this up before you actually confess properly

[snekeyes]

Really?

...I am glad. I thought-... that it would be unwanted, under the circumstances.

[That eased the ache, a little. If Evangeline still had a tiny bit of room in her heart for her, that was enough, she told herself.]

fight hard

[abnormalizes]

Definitely not! You'll always be important to me, no matter what.

[More than a tiny bit...!]
