I have taken notice. It seems as though you're settling in well here.
( Shadow Milk will hear the sounds of shuffling in the kitchen -- cabinets opening and closing. The next words he says are as genuine as much of what he says. )
[a pause.... sure, Shadow Milk wanted to hear that, was hoping he'd hear those words. but it's different to actually hear them out loud. he doesn't need Pure Vanilla's approval, he wants to say! but the words fade before he can open his mouth.
he swallows thickly]
...You should be.
[he still feels guilty about the way he acted towards Catra in particular, but Shadow Milk will get there. guilt is... weird. funny. he doesn't like this emotion, even if he knows what it is.
he sits in silence after that, just listening to the bustling in the kitchen. his face feels surprisingly warm.
( Pure Vanilla sets a cup down quietly in front of Shadow Milk before sitting across from him. Honestly, that response is just like him, but there's something that feels off about it. )

Date: 2025-11-09 03:15 am (UTC)( But, he'll leave it alone. He knows not to push far too much at this point. )
I'm afraid that the magic I was given here is far different than yours, but... having the opportunity to experience something new is exciting, too.

Date: 2025-11-09 03:21 am (UTC)...I. Don't think you've told me about your new powers. Have you tried them out?

Date: 2025-11-09 06:43 am (UTC)the corner of his mouth twitches. he suddenly laughs LOUDLY, echoing through the cottage]
