Drunk Cards
WHO: Some sheep and you
WHERE: Right in the middle of the pasture
WHEN: Day 83, afternoon
[Two red sheep and one lilac-colored sheep are having a picnic in the shade of a tree. There is a smorgasbord of finger foods laid out over the huge blankets spread over the grass, but even more notable is the frankly unreasonable amount of drinks, both alcoholic and non.]
[They beckon you over as you're passing by.]
Did you know? Did you know?
There was a demon here just now!
Yeeeeeeeeah...! We ...played a game of *hic* cards! With the drankssssssss...
When we beat him at cards he left all his stuff behind.
Hey! You! Yeah, youuuu! Wanna drink some cards and play some hooch? We got some uuuuuuuuuuh sandwiches too. *hic*
We can't drink this all, so we might as well share.
We got extra cards, too.
*hic*

[ that actually makes them go quiet for a moment, and still. ]
Belle . . . ?
no subject
Yes?
no subject
no subject
... how?
no subject
no subject
[ Something simple, Rubato would expect. Everyone gets hurt here. There's no changing that. ]
If you had to hide it from others, then it sounds like you did something grave. Of course he'd be hurt. He loves you so much.
[ If anything, he'll love you more for it. ]
You trust him, though, don't you?
no subject
[ what a conversation to be having with a little frog stuffy ]
no subject
How did you do that?
no subject
Because he asked it, I let . . . him carve some small recompense . . . from my body. But I knew . . . knew it would hurt those who loved me as well.
Then . . . Rubato found me while . . . the limbus was growing my replacements.
no subject
... you had your reason, but this is still... cruel to you, too. Why did you think it was alright to allow recompense over something you had no control over back then?
[ He'll just cradle them close though. ]
Foolish potato. Don't you know that when someone loves you, you stop belonging to just yourself?
no subject
I am not always . . . good, at loving.
no subject
[ He sighs. ]
You'll have much to make up for, now. To my Hunter, and to every person that loves you and doesn't know you did this. You owe them the truth if you love them. So they can help you not have to do this kind of thing alone again.
no subject
The truth will hurt them . . .
no subject
To love is to trust that they'll make the right choice for themselves with you. So you should tell them when you're ready, let them hurt and heal, and trust that they'll stand by you.
No one wants to see someone they love hurt... but more than that, no one wants someone they love to hurt alone.
no subject
no subject
No one can force you to do anything you don't want... but in time, you'll have to decide what you want to do. I'll trust that you'll decide what's best, knowing what you know now.
[ That others that love them will want to be there for them, and with them, and not make decisions like this without them. ]
You matter even more now. That's a burden of love you'll have to bear. Don't squander it. Promise me that.
no subject
[ their plush froggy fur is getting clumpy with tears ]
Rubato . . . Bluebell . . . being loved . . . it’s the b-best thing that’s ever— I wanted it for him too, for my junior, but— . . . my love only hurts him now. And only my s-suffering . . . brings him happiness. How— how do I . . . ?
no subject
He'll just pull out a handkerchief and wrap it around their froggy head. ]
If your junior can't share your happiness and joy, then it's not theirs to ruin either. No one should be happy at anyone else's misery, especially not someone who loves them!
[ Firm. ]
... I don't know how they can be helped, but what I do know is you'll find a better answer with the people who will be there for you in sadness and joy. And maybe you'll be able to help them better together, than alone. So don't give up on them yet... but focus on yourself, first.
no subject
no subject
... Cry as much as you want, but now you need to focus on you. How long will you stay like this?
no subject
[ but they kinda like being tiny and cuddly ]
no subject
[ And he's been enjoying holding critters lately. ]
... just know that if you make my hunter any sadder, I won't forgive you. He's given you his love and his trust. So you're not allowed to hurt yourself and hurt him through that, understand?
If you want to hurt him, then you do it where he can fight back.
no subject
no subject
I should know. I've been carrying the wounds he gave me, and I've yet to know why. But it doesn't make me love him any less.
