Always eating, never filled.

[Gluttony pauses before she opens her mouth to say something again, but instead she votes against it. Her brows furrow slightly at the question that comes into her mind. No. She isn’t about to ask how long she’s been gone and how much she has missed. Instead–] So… um… did you stock your fridge? [First order of business. Food.]

[He looks back towards the food he just got before she came.] It's getting low, but I haven't gotten groceries just yet, I just got some food to go before you came. If you want you can have some, I'm sure it's been a while since you've eaten, hm?

Sorry I’ve been gone for so long. [Her response was quiet, but loving. By Satan she’s missed him.] It’s good to see you again too….

Well you certainly had quite a nap that’s for sure. [He reached over and brushed some of her hair away from her face] ...I missed you.

[Oh Satan. She doesn’t know what to do–]

It’s good to see you again.

Wrath, you’re letting your negative feelings about yourself affect your self esteem which makes you think that you’re not worthy of love and that nobody could love you, when it’s the exact opposite and people do love you and care about you.

[He crosses his arms over his chest, sinking back into the couch] Be quiet. You– Get out’a my head, okay? I’m fine. I’m totally n’ completely fine.

[He sat up a bit, seeing that he was getting somewhere with him] Nobody is ever fine, there’s always something wrong. Whether it’s small or big. You’re not fine and if you were your body language would be much different.

[Looks down at his lap] Mmn…

Wrath, you’re letting your negative feelings about yourself affect your self esteem which makes you think that you’re not worthy of love and that nobody could love you, when it’s the exact opposite and people do love you and care about you.

Stop assuming the worst? There aren’t many other options. [He frowns, placing his beer on the table and sighing. He considers explaining himself, but that would go against his plans] Uh, yeah. I should probably go. I’m not feelin’ too hot, n’ I don’ wanna get’cha sick.

Assuming the worst about yourself leads to assuming the worst about everything, and not everything is black and white.

[He shifts, blushing a little] Maybe. I dunno. It’s not like I’ll ever see ‘er again anyway. I’m pretty sure she lost interest. I haven’ seen ‘er in months. If she was still around, I probably would’a seen ‘er at least once. Like at the store or something. [A small frown forms on his face] Unless that’s the point. Maybe she’s avoiding me. Makes sense.

You really have to stop assuming the worst about things, especially about yourself. No I know that last part is a work in progress of course, but still. You’re not unloveable, that’s obvious because two other girls practically love you, as well as Abby and your family.

[Sips his beer] I recommend you hanging out and talking with each of them for a while to get to know them better. It’ll help you a lot, you should never consider a relationship with a person you barely know even if you’ve hung out a lot.

Er… You don’ mean like a date, do you? That’s what people do on TV, but I dunno if I can handle that. [He shifts a little, lowering his voice] I still don’ know how I managed those couple’a dates with Allison over the summer. [Pauses, and then he hangs his head] Then again, I also haven’t seen her in months. Maybe I didn’t really “manage” them after all. It makes sense though.

[Oh now Famine sees why he's having trouble with this] I'm sure Allison is still around you know. [Sips his beer] I can see why this is hard for you now, you must still have feelings for Allison, right?

Hm, well, how do you feel about each of them? Feelings are complicated unfortunately, especially when it comes to romantic feelings.

Now that I think about it, maybe I don’ know as much about ‘em as I should, do I? Fuck, I’m a shitty friend. I mean, I kind’a knew that already, but fuck.

[Sips his beer] I recommend you hanging out and talking with each of them for a while to get to know them better. It'll help you a lot, you should never consider a relationship with a person you barely know even if you've hung out a lot.

[He opened his and took a sip from it, furrowing his brows at what the other said] Really? And you don’t have to worry about gluttony hearing, she’s not home.

[Takes another swig] I dunno what ta do. I can’t fuckin’ tell how I feel.

Hm, well, how do you feel about each of them? Feelings are complicated unfortunately, especially when it comes to romantic feelings.

[When Famine comes back, he accepts the beer with a small “thanks” and opens it up. He lowers his voice] Well, Alice told me she might be falling in love with me. [Takes a swig from his drink]

[He opened his and took a sip from it, furrowing his brows at what the other said] Really? And you don’t have to worry about gluttony hearing, she’s not home.

I’m still havin’ trouble with those girls from before. [He sits on the sofa] I have no fuckin’ idea how I feel, but it’s… escalated a li’l bit.

Oh, I see, one moment. [He goes to the kitchen and grabs two beers before coming back and sitting down in the chair across] Okay, so how did it escalate?

Her tarot cards didn’ help one fuckin’ bit.

What is it you need help with?

…

Oh hey, are you here to see Gluttony?

She took it surprisingly well and has been incredibly supportive. N’ the weird thing is, even knowing who I was, she still told me she likes me. That’s the weirdest shit right there.

To me, personally, that kind of information would shock a person, even if it’s just a little bit.

[Presses his lips together in a fine line]

[He’s concerned now]

While the other what? [He takes a sip from his own cup, sighing through his nose] Yeah. I guess. I mean, you’re not wrong. I’m really fuckin’ confused…

Oh, the other is probably just more accepting and patient, that’s not to say the other one isn’t as well. [Sips his coffee] You know, I don’t think your frustration is really towards your feelings for them, but rather your feelings about them in general. How would you describe how things were before all of this?
