Well. There's enough creepy old men in the world. We don't need to encourage them further. Know what I mean? [ He tries to turn it into a little joke to lighten the mood. ] Save that bawd for someone special, man. C'mon.

[shadowglitter]

Oh. [ He's definitely touched on something, and he wants to pry, but he-- won't. It seems like an inappropriate time. ]

I mean, it's not like I was gonna let him bone down on it. I wear mesh bodysuits so people will see my sweet, sweet abs. This was just one step further into my constant ploy for physical affection. [ self-deprecating laugh based on a joke that's like 30% true, whoops ]

Sorry, though. Again. In general, actually?

[redhott]

[ Yeah, best not go there, Odin. Kyle's pretty sure you couldn't carry his baggage yet. Not with thOSE NOODLE ARMS!!!

His apology just kinda makes Kyle sigh. ]

I can't tell if you should really apologize or not? Like, yeah it was stupid, but he's the creep. Just—You've got people looking out for you here, Odin. Okay? Good people. Keep the good ones close.

[ Odin's arms aren't noodles! He's buff as fuck! THE NERVE?? ]

Okaaaaay. [ Ugh, he's being sighed at. Odin hates being sighed at. He stays quiet for a minute, dwelling in guilt, his usual anxiety getting the better of him and making him think that Kyle totally hates him. When he speaks up again, it's surprisingly vulnerable? For him, at last. ]

Are you one of the good people looking out for me? Can I keep you close?

[redhott]

[ His warm smile returns. It's genuine and kind just like the rest of Kyle. ]

I'd like to think so? I... Dang, I kinda wish I'd done this face to face. You definitely need a serious hug right now.

[shadowglitter]

Man, I always need a serious hug. Don't worry about that. If I could go through life getting serious hugs from people, I'd literally never do anything else.

[ He runs his hand through his hair, though, sheepish. ]

I'd like to think so too, though. I know we haven't-- known each other for all that long, but you're kind, and you're sweet, and you're super hot, and you're looking out for me in a way that makes me see you as just-- brave and selfless and good. So...

I'd like to be close to a person like that. I think. If that's okay.

[redhott]

I think everyone deserves that, yeah.
