♡ ⸻ Call it a hunch, but the way Isaac had left their group chat the other day had left her with a feeling that something wasn't quite right, and in the spirit of doing better, of being more attentive to his needs, Chrissy found herself outside his apartment door and giving it a rather jovial three knocks before opening the door and poking her head in.

❝ Isaac? You home? I just wanted to check in with you! ❞

He might not be big on talking about his feelings, but as they had all collectively learned recently, that didn't mean they could simply forego not checking if he was okay.

Recently, I've been going through something else, something that is the root cause for a lot of my mental health problems. This situation has been highly triggering for me, and as a result... I haven't been my best self. Again, Killjoy has been there for me and shown me nothing but patience and understanding. I truly am so very lucky to have them in my life, they are a constant in my day-to-day now, and it's strange if we don't talk. When I say that I love them, I don't mean it as some throw away term of endearment, I mean it as in I literally cannot imagine my life without them being in it. They are my best friend, the person I trust and confide in more than anyone else in my life, they are my platonic soul mate. I mean all of these things from the bottom of my heart, and it's a big deal because I don't trust or let people in very easily, and yet here I am, so very, very glad that I let them in.

I know this is random, I know not many people will read this, and that's okay. I just wanted to get this out, to say these things as I really do carry the sentiments with me on the daily.

♫ ⸻ It wasn't sitting right with him that his brother was feeling so out of sorts, like he didn't feel welcome within his own family circle. Eddie had a hunch there was more to this whole situation than met the eye, but he also knew that if he kept pushing Isaac to open up about it, it could end badly. What he wanted was for his brother to open up when he felt ready to so, and was with that in mind that he'd sauntered to the third floor of the apartment building they all owned —a fact that still blew Eddie's mind because who the fuck thought a Munson would ever own something like this?— and knocked on his door.

An impish grin was on the males face when the door swung open, body leaning with ease against the frame. ❝ Yeah, you'll do. ❞ He said with a wink. ❝ Come on, grab your shit, we're going out, just you an' me! ❞

@ripdayze bestowed: i need more than just words. i need action.

♡ ⸻ Her gut was telling her that this might have something to do with what they'd briefly spoken about the other morning, however, she'd followed her gut with him before and found herself to be embarrassingly wrong. Deciding it was better to err on the side of caution, Chrissy instead thinks it might be better to just ask him, or at least gently coax him into telling her what the problem is.

❝ Well, they do say that actions speak louder than words, right? You can tell someone something until you're blue in the face, but sometimes showing them is much more effective. ❞

He was very much a 'man of action', and she had to wonder if that was due to the fact he'd been taught to suppress his feelings, to push down his own wants and needs? It wouldn't surprise her if that were the case, and given how touchy he got when it came to that particular subject it was safe to say she'd be right in that line of thinking.

MUN WARNING: mun is a real, honest human being behind the screen, and some overly sensitive, clinically online people just can't stomach that.

What if the MUN had a warning label? What would it say?

They need to stock up on tums.

@ripdayze bestowed: Send me a '✉' for five times my muse didn't text yours, and one time they did.

[ TEXT: ISAAC ] I worry about you, you know? I just don't know how to say it to your face.

[ TEXT: ISAAC ] I think I might not be good enough for this class. Everyone else seems leagues ahead of me and just... so confident...

[ TEXT: ISAAC ] Could you pick up some milk please? Oh, and Henry is cooking for everyone tonight so don't load up on snackies!

[ TEXT: ISAAC ] It was good to see you smiling today. You seemed more like your old self.

[ TEXT: ISAAC ] Thank you... for everything. Just. Thank you.
