What's going on in your heart? (Feather)

[Featherfrost]

Featherfrost can tell Fallenmist doesn't like his lack of a decision. He immediately moves past her with a neutral expression on his face. After he moves a good distance past Fallenmist, he lets himself fall onto the grass on his side. Then he rolls onto his back and closes his eyes. He hadn't waited for Fallenmist to suggest anything. He didn't feel like doing anything active. It was... Hard. Difficult and made him uncomfortable. But just... Laying here and existing with Fallenmist... That was easy. It was smooth and felt right. He'd spent his life antagonizing others. If he wasn't doing anything, then it was neutral in nature and it didn't bring up as many painful doubts as other things did.

My face falls slightly as he seems seems to have no intention of doing such a thing. Or anything really. I'm not even sure if he listened to me just then. My gaze follows him curiously as he walks straight past me and lays down, going on to roll onto his back and close his eyes. He seems almost....content. I twitch my ears, frowning slightly in confusion. I'm not really understanding what's going on right now, but as the silence settles, it's warm. It's comfortable. My mind clicks, and I purr slightly. Just a quiet rumble that's barely audible. My tail twitches slightly, and I approach him. A little hesitantly, and not getting way too close lest I disturb him. Carefully, I lower myself to the ground and stretch out on my stomach alongside him, resting my head upon my darkened paws. My eyes flit over him for a moment, before falling closed to peaceful blackness. It's not like sleeping in the den. There it's uncomfortable and oh so broken in my desperate mind. Here it is peace. Me and him existing, together as one or not at all. The thought brings a slight smile to my face, with my eyes still remaining closed and the comfortable silence blanketing our forms. For the first time I can remember, I'm actually relaxed.

Featherfrost can feel the faintest of smiles on his face as Fallenmist joins him. It was nice to just lay there. He let out a sigh and rolled onto his side. She seems to be as comfortable as he is. That was... Nice. He doesn't think they've ever quite shared a moment like this. There was always something on at least one side of their interactions. Confusion, awkwardness... All those things that were generally unpleasant.

(Hehe, it's cause I lack muse for this, so I sorta just go...hmm...words...? Yup, they be words. *pokes out tongue like a little kid* Ya know ya love me )

A sigh and the slightly rustle of movement grasps at the remaining straws of my wakefulness. My ears twitch forward, and I allow one eye to open, not wanting to break this precious moment. He's rolled onto his side, moving his body ever closer to mine, yet never close enough. It's like he's unintentionally teasing me. Close enough to touch, but oh so far away. Blast him. Internally I sigh, though externally I am silent for fear of tainting this blessed interaction. Summoning my courage, or whatever it is you call it, I shuffle slightly closer to rest my head nearer to his, relaxing as I feel his steady breath upon my fur. If I was relaxed before, I'm melting now. I close my other eye, and let out a sigh of contentment. This is nice. It's warm and comfortable. It's peaceful. It's so many things I can't even name them all. My lips twitch into a smile, and I nuzzle him subconsciously as I drift of to sleep. It's like my worries blink out one by one like stars colliding into dawn. Worries I didn't even know I possessed. And with those worries the last straw of consciousness dissolves as I drift into the most relaxed sleep I've had as long as I can remember. Longer even.

(Edit: xD yas, they did. Shall we end here or wake them up again? Featherfrost )

[Featherfrost]

Featherfrost can feel Fallenmist's presence becoming ever closer. Strangely, he doesn't protest this. He's new to everything about that warm feeling blossoming in his chest now. Those sickly feelings when faced with cats he's admittedly, hurt such as his own adoptive mother. He hates thinking about it. He hates thinking about those drowning feelings that start in his stomach and force their way up his throat, on the tip of his tongue. He always bites them back. He always tells himself he can't show weakness. Better to expose the weakness of others.

But... If the warm feeling is positivity... That warm feeling starting in his heart and slowly, but gently, spreading through his body... Then maybe he shouldn't be spreading negativity. Maybe that other thing. The whole thing with being nice. It was almost a foreign concept. But he was trying to learn now, even if it was a little extremely late. 

He takes a deep breath and he lets the darkness of sleep take him.

((WELP they fell asleep


((Fallenmist  ehhh let's just end it here
