“Take a moment to think of just... flexibility, love, and trust...”

You have to be honest about how bad it feels so you can move on!

> And they say cartoons are just for kids.

> Your name is Tezami, and for the second time, you exist. You even have a wrist-gem again?

> Wait, why am I a gem again, too? Anon magic is weird? Roll with it.

> Now, there’s something you don’t want to think about, but it’s probably something you have to even more so, knowing you want to avoid it.

> One step at a time.

> Meenah.

> Wow, that’s a lot of complicated feelings all at once.

> But... you don’t hate her! You’re trying not to be jealous of her. 

> I’m so proud of you. I know how hard this is for you, to open up and face this fear. I love you. You do so much for me, and nothing hurt me more than the idea that I might have to give you up.

> You would give me up then! You said you couldn’t, you said you wouldn’t. I should have known I was just-

>  My wife. You’re my wife. The only one I’ll ever have. The only one I’ll ever need. No matter how strong I feel about Meenah, or anyone, they will never replace you. Never.

> Promise you’ll be patient with me when my jealousy flares up?

> Of course. Promise me you’ll talk to me when you’re having ugly feelings about it?

> ...I’ll try.

> Good enough for me.

> Good enough to be me.

> In your mind, you know she’s right. It’s not fair to expect everyone close to her to suddenly adapt to a change like that. A real shame you don’t feel with your mind, then.

> Scooping up the broken pieces of your heart, you mumble an excuse and port back to your place. Your big, expensive, quiet, lonely place.

its taking som3 tim3 to proc3ss it all

i think im going to go think for a littl3 whil3

but dont worry 3v3ryon3

> Tyria. 

> She’s your moirail. No she’s not, she’s your leftleaf. She’s important to you. She’s important to Ami. She’s brave. She’s scared. She’s so strong! She needs help! She is... She is... worthwhile.

> At least there’s something you can agree on.

> Meenah.

> She’s your matesprit. No she’s not. She WAS your matesprit. You need her. You don’t like her at all. You want to connect with her again. You want her to go away. You’re afraid she’ll leave you behind. You’re afraid you’ll be left behind.

> You’re... what? You’re... what?

> Fissures are forming on your skin. Thoughts have divided too far, Ami and Teez are becoming distinct in you again. The stress, the conflict, is splitting you right down the middle. You collapse to your knees, arms wrapped around yourself, desperately trying to hold your form together.

> No please please please not yet not already. You want to be you!

> You want to be you. You like being you. You like yourself. You are greater than the sum of your parts. You love yourself. For the first time in forever, you love yourself.

> Slowly, the fissures fade away, leaving you curled up on the floor. You’re still together. You’re still Tezami.
