fooligetta + sharkflower ramblings :>
obviously q2foolish and q2vegetta have a complex relationship for a number of reasons, but in the start of qsmp2 its made clear by both parties they aren't really together. It doesn't stop the flirty whispers and back and forth, the eagerness to please and serve the other. But it's harder now. There's more weight to what lies in compulsion. qVegetta knows he left qFoolish to bear the weight of being a single parent, though qFoolish never once thought in contempt over it; he accepted that loving qVegetta was sometimes chasing a ghost. But even still, bearing the burden of their houses emotional and physical turmoil is hard. And even worse, the death of a child. Of course qFoolish can't just as easily fall into what was once an easy rhythm. Of course qVegetta feels guilty . So now it's love stolen in little moments . Words shared to others but left unsaid in their presence.
qJuan loves qFoolish. qJuan cannot allow himself to love qFoolish.
qJuan did not like qFoolish at first. What reason did he have to like the guy? Someone after his position of being second in command to their revered king. So it happens before he really notices. The growing fondness. The familiarity that comes with living with someone. Reliability in always being there, annoyingly so. Comfort and care. He simply does. qJuan likes qFoolish. But between his longstanding and now rocky Cucurucho fixation to realizing it was really another house member, he'd rather keep his head down. He's not ready for another round in love . But the feeling lingers, until something cold washes over him and things fall into place. qVegetta and qFoolish, together. The art makes sense, the offhanded comments . They were together. They kind of still are, even though qFoolish won't admit it. And the other, his king? His valued king whos word is law? Now he really can't. So qJuan sits with the feeling, making jokes and remarks about qFoolish being with everyone, but with qVegetta. Because hes afraid to hear the answer. He can voice that he loves someone, but the who will never leave his lips. It exists only in his eyes and the warm gaze he shares with qFoolish.
