Oh, you will make me?

I will.

And this is your idea of a threat?

Of course, I will be greatly relieved if you do not find it threatening.

I am perfectly capable of talking about my feelings. But not as some arbitrary retribution.

...Have I angered you?

No. But you need only ask about the things you wish to know. And if I am vague, insist.

Very well.

Then I will find a different, more appropriate punishment.

Consider it a challenge, for I have no interest in not carrying you about.

The more you do so, the more I will make you eventually regret it.

[Kissing the top of his head.]

Yes dear.

[that's enough threats, time to just lean on bread and rest a bit]

[Time! For! Cuddles!]

[he's tired enough that at this point he's honestly just going to fall asleep in bread's arms. zzz]

[He'll stay awake a long time just holding and petting him. Sometimes you have trauma and don't want to let go of someone being alive in your arms.]

[relatable tbh

but also cute]

[Hush. Sleep. ]
