i know you can take care of yourself. that doesn't stop me from wanting to help.

you're right though. creeps know not to mess with somebody as badass as you.


[ He has an inkling that's not what Onni means, by saying he's not the sort of person to get harassed, but Reynir willfully misinterprets. ]

oh, i was totally wrong what you meant before.

i just assumed you knew, but i'm not going to Bond with anybody else. for romance or friendship or anything.
(actually, i take that back, i guess i MIGHT if somebody i knew was seriously about to die from too much magic, but i would talk to you about it first.)


[ And really, it's the certainty with which he gives that answer that finally pushes it over the edge, for Reynir. Makes it impossible for him to not acknowledge it any longer. He hadn't even hesitated. He doesn't want to be Bonded to anyone but Onni.

There is a reason for that. There's a reason he'd said he was not going to go out and try dating anyone, and why he would just deal with any sexual urges by himself. He isn't interested in any of those things. At least, not with anybody who isn't Onni.

In a way, it's not a surprise at all. Some part of him has known this for a while. Inevitable, like a fall. ]


i'll do my best.
i can't promise i'll do perfect.
it's not like i can just decide how to feel, or know how i'm going to feel in the future.
but i know you're not interested in romance and that kind of thing makes you uncomfortable, so i'll do what i can.

i'm sorry again, about the faun stuff.
