hi dad
Ā Ā Ā the turn at the sound of her voice is INSTANTANEOUS , an action he does without thinking , without completely COMPREHENDING the fact that heās doing it in the first place . CRYSTALLINE gaze fallsĀ āpon her person in silence whilst he awaits her continuation of whatever topic at hand that she wishes to speak about , stills hands from the act of SEWING ; heās aware sheās said something but it has yet to register in his mind , fails to befall him like it should . he hears the ,Ā ā HIĀ ā but the word that comes after it āāā one usually associated with a PARENTAL FIGURE āāā hardly goes noticed , least right away . thereās a slow blinkĀ &Ā anotherĀ &Ā another / he stares at her with the same innocence that chronically plagues his visage ; the tilt of a pink haired head , the soft scrunch of BUTTON NOSE .
Ā Ā Ā &Ā then it registers like a KICK to the stomach , the ,Ā ā DAD .Ā ā
Ā Ā Ā heās TAKEN ABACK by the term , itās visible in the sudden widening of doe eyes , but he does not focus on it , forces an expression of NEUTRALITY in order to approach the SITUATION as if it were no big deal , like it isnāt something thatās life changing . ( he doesnāt think heās gonna be able to keep himself from calling doppo right awayĀ &Ā telling him about this interaction . ) the clap of hands that follows is soft , like heās worried of scaring her away , like sheās some MOUSE he can startle into hiding .
Ā Ā Ā DAD . heād never thought heād be called that in his life / itās weird , different , but he thinks he could get used to itĀ .Ā Ā Ā āĀ Ā Ā huuuuuh ? you need something ? lemmeā just finish this first .Ā Ā Ā āĀ ( @replicai . )
