Hmm, how's Garvin feel about physical contact?

Also, at that poing, Gall might just start going on a random rant about somthing or other in Garvin's company because, one, that's what he's good at and feels most comfortable with and, two it won't look like pity, which Ingall definitly doesn't feel in the first place. Pity's useless, he of all people knows that, lol.

-

Yeahhhh, once Kira gets into the mindset of "that person deserves it because of what they did to me." It's pretty hard for them to get out of it, even if that person didn't actually deserve what happened to them. It's of form of dehumanization that Aki picked up from a home they stayed in for around a year. It made it easier to deal with the shit they had to go through and put others through-

Yeah, that's probably is better. Especially since, once he collects himself enough, Ingall will kind of push people away as not to "hurt" them anymore.

Garvin is fine with physical contact- He'll give out high fives and

stuff pretty easily. But he's much more used to being the one initiating it rather than the one receiving it. He's more likely to respond with confusion and pushing away, at least in July, when he's the one receiving it.

A random rant would work fine enough- Until Garvin's mind twists it up enough to where he just gets annoyed and snaps. Again, something that really only happens in July.

-

Man- Hopefully Aries never crosses them too much then.

Quincy isn't too unfamiliar with that kind of thinking either, actually. Just he's more likely to try running from his problems before anything else.

Garvin refuses to be pushed away, and is very good at dealing with after-aftermath of stuff. He likes to nip stuff in the bud, but only after everyone needed to do so has calmed down enough to actually talk/listen.

Hmm, alright then, Ingall will adjust as needed, lmao

-

Yeah, I kinda doubt he will, though. Aki is pretty hard to irrite up to that point, especially if they've already decided that they don't mind someone. After that point, they become a lot more lax about their responses, so Aries should be fine. Ingall just annoyed them right from the beginning so it got bad pretty quick, lol

Oh, yeah, he'll be perfect for Ingall then, lmao

Also, I'm finally almost done with affiliations! I just have to do Devy and Chile for everyone, and then I think I'll be done, lol

Great, haha. This will be funny. Because Garvin does not take well to people trying to invade his annual spiral. Like, dude is completely aware of it, and any questions are shutdown with him saying that he's celebrating. Which, uh, no. He is not. He just doesn't like to admit trauma, or anything that isn't good in all honesty. Especially as anything other than a joke.

-

Makes sense, yeah. At this point Aries is the one of the only people that no one hates.

Garvin being the best at keeping people emotionally stable and then completely spiraling in July is going to be the best thing ever. Especially since even if people bring up points he made and try to use them on him, he deflects way too well to actually listen.

But yes. Garvin is best with this.

Hm... So, I know we haven't started at all, but with all this discussion and all-- Ingall and Garvin?

Awesome! Aries and Quincy are completely done for me. Oculi will probably be the hardest, since they're still new for me to be writing lmao

Eh, Ingall's persistant enough while also being respectful, I'm sure he'll manage to help at least a little bit, eventually... maybe XD

He'll keep trying-

-

I mean, who could possibly hate Aries? He's just too precious to even slightly dislike!

Yeahhh, Maya will probably try helping out Garvin as well, but I can't see her actually managing very well. She's kind, but she really only has one tactic. Other than Ingall, Sky is the only one I could see making any progress at all, and he's too timid around Garvin to actually know what's happening probably, especially if Garvin is good at disguising what's going on.

Yes. Ingall and Garvin. I was thinking the same thing XD

--

Yeah, Aki's only easy for me because they basically either hate you for annoying them or are completely chill with you XD

Hopefully Ingall is prepared for a ton of self-depreciation in the form of jokes. And snapping. And just half thought out confessions of contemplating death that will be denied and joked about if Garvin is confronted about it.

-

Thats fair, yeah haha

Haha- Yeah, kindness doesn't tend to actually help. It makes Garvin more confused, while also making his mind twist it into pity. He'll be pushing a ton of people away- Basically everyone except for Devery, since Dev is unfortunately a bit of an enabler during July...

Garvin's okay at hiding it, he just doesn't leave Devery's apartment as much, except to like- Drink?

Good to know I wasn't the only one thinking it XD

-

Very fun, haha. I've made Oculi complex and complicated as I do with all my characters unfortunately

Well, Ingall does something similar, though not as much in the form of joking... Not that he's really prepared, but he'll manage, lol

-

Ah, yeah, Maya won't be helpful then. Neither will Sky, he definitely won't pick up on it if Garvin's hiding away, haha.

Ah, an enabler, fun...
At that point, Ingall might just stay in Devery's apartment for as

long as he can manage without having and OCD meltdown, haha, Devy's apartment is not the most friendly for our OCD boy-

-

That certainly makes it harder for affiliations, yes XD

Aki is very much not complicated when it comes to people. Their complicated in other ways, obviously, but very much not with people. They really only has two attitudes when it comes to them, lmao

Oh my god, I just thought of something-

Can Devy and Kage have a flirt war? That totally seems like something they'd do and it'd be hilarious XD
