I just have this gut fear of abandonment.

I tend to hide when I’m emotional, have my whole life. I’m not sure the last time I felt safe enough to let all my sadness out in front of someone. I think because of worries over abandonment. Like who would want to stay with me?

I have a dumb fear that anytime I share something with you, it will be one weird thing too many for you to want to date me (I have issues with abandonment)

I have a history of having stronger feelings than the other person, and if I mention my fears they seem more likely to leave me. So I usually try to not. I really do have abandonment fears, based on past experiences.

I can feel myself falling for you and it scares me, because I worry you won’t feel the same way (thanks fear of abandonment).

I’m avoiding saying the thing I’m not saying also because once I do, it will increase my attachment to you.

FIDOOM

Perfect for explorers, as it tries to dig up everything it can smell. It opens up dungeons and pits to hell surprisingly often, occasionally directly under its owner.

GOYLEFINX

A great choice for the cautious adventurer, GOYLEFINX is able to see 9 seconds into the future so it can warn its owner of impending danger. However, it occasionally decides to let them get hurt just to keep them humble.

SLUGMARINE

A delight among culinary adventurers, as the oily slime it secretes can be used in all sorts of wonderful recipes that are normally hard to come by on the road. Unless you cook it expertly, it's *extremely* poisonous.
