[ he’s soft in all the right places, gosh darn it. shoyo was about to type something else but there is just a pull in his heart. ]

it’s not something anyone else needs to worry about
but is there something i can do to help?

u miss him
i can tell
and that sux when u can’t like
scratch the itch?

[...]

Look after him. Please. I know that's a lot for me to ask, but...if he was with you at all, then he trusts you.

that's not a lot to ask dude
i really like sunny
but then ur not in the picture
that sux too

I know.

But I'm not sure if that's something that can change right now.

Sunny...he

[Basil types something, the little typing dots stay on screen for a long time, and it seems like he has to erase a bunch before he can actually send it.]

He didn't...seem to recognize me at all when he first got here. Not just because I'm a monster.

It's like he forgot about me entirely, even though I'd just seen him.

[It's no wonder Sunny doesn't want to talk to him, barring the obvious reasons.]

[ that’s . . . worrying. but recalling what will had said, something at least clicks to explain that. because how could someone just. forget an entire being of memories? unless he died in ryslig already, but that doesn’t feel likely.

does forgetting he draws things link to it? ]

did he come like
before he met you? in his time?
i don’t know how it works I just remember what will said

[There's a short pause before Basil answers.]

I really don't know. I don't think I'd know for sure unless I asked him what he remembered.

[But if Basil had to guess, it might not necessarily be that. It could be something more complicated...as if this whole situation isn't complicated to begin with.]

i know it can be like
scary
but why not try to talk to him again to know for sure? one on one?

I'd like to. I think.

[He...thinks.

No, that's definitely what he wanted back home. But Sunny...

Sunny just kept running away.]

But talking to someone is a two-way street.

[ there’s nothing he could blind himself with when it came to that; sunny barely talked to basil when they were all together. was he just— shy, that there were more people around? he didn’t know. he didn’t know sunny for too long, and he was always pretty quiet. shoyo just never noticed how much because he frequently pressed for conversation anyway, most of which he’d be the one to talk and ask, and sunny would just answer. sometimes not even with words. ]

even if you guys were alone
somewhere safe
do you think he wouldn’t talk to you still?
