[ But admitting that doesn't feel like a bad thing right now. The way Chipp's starting to explain things now is...better. And realizing that it's better is what makes Nenonen realize that they didn't like how he was saying it earlier.
Earlier felt like Chipp was saying he wasn't good enough. That he was intrinsically bad and not worth a friendship.
Now sounds more like he's worried they will be taken advantage of if they base their measure for friendship solely on what they think of people similar to them.
Maybe it's the first and the second, or just one, but Nen takes a long moment to stare at their phone and wonder why it is they didn't like the way Chipp spoke about himself. Would they have been fine with it if it were an object fact? That would have been the case back in their world, but something about that feels...wrong now, in a way it hasn't before.
Nenenon doesn't want to think anything less than the world of him. ]
But I will watch out for poisonous mushrooms. I understand that this is a metaphor and the mushrooms represent people. But also, I will be careful not to eat bad mushrooms.
