Lunamor she/her Posted March 27 Report Share Posted March 27 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Weaver of Lights said: “It’s not your fault.” He looked to Jenny for support. @Lunamor “Terrance is nervous around everyone, Elsie. You didn’t do anything wrong, he’s just not comfortable around other people. He’s been on his own for a long time, I think. Adjusting to interacting with people again can be difficult and scary.” This was bringing up bad memories, but Elsie needed her support. Jenny had to use everything she could to help her feel better. @Random Bystander Edited March 27 by Lunamor Ninja’d but works good enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he has trust issues, but..." Jenny nodded silently. She didn’t trust herself to speak for fear that she would sound jealous of Elsie. And, to be perfectly honest, she was. She wished that she could be friends with him too, that he would like Jenny for the same reasons he liked Elsie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He talks to you, at least a little. Not the rest of us.” Quote They have hardly tried to talk to him since directly after meeting him, which also was directly after they threatened him. So that's a false assumption. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t about her right now. Elsie was the one who needed help. She couldn’t let her own problems get in the way. 2 minutes ago, Random Bystander said: Elsie suddenly looked at Jenny with wide eyes. "Uh, do you still wanna learn how to play Uno?" She blurted. Jenny jumped on the opportunity to change the subject and forced a smile. ”Yes please!” Hopefully it could distract them both. 4 minutes ago, The Aspiring Archivist said: Quote To be fair, he hasn’t exactly been acting like he’d engage in a conversation And yeah, I thunk she’s made an attempt.
