You downplayed it…

[ mutters under his breath and sounds betrayed. his idol cosplay is less important than this. ]

Who?

It was the guy I rejected. He heard about us, and made some comments that lead to a small altercation.

[ thorns is getting blueballed for his crimes. it's fine.

elysium will leave the cleanup and packing up to thorns as he showers his undying affection on this creature who will surely never betray him.

thorns reaches over to put a hand over elysium's phone. ]


Our date.

[ looks shocked ]

Our date!

[ stands up.

everyone is staring at him for making a commotion and he ends up apologising profusely.
]

Sorry, sorry. Um. [ leans forward to whisper into thorns' ear. ] We need to go through the back door.

[ he is so petty.

it's fine!!! cleanup goes quickly because they're not taking breaks every ten seconds to kiss. once thorns has everything set, he calls out to elysium. ]


We're leaving.

[ he'd been saving this one punchline for so long. of course. ]

Okay.

[ he remains glued by docybara's side. poor thing doesn't know where all this attention is coming from, but he will accept it? he nuzzles into elysium's side as he tugs him toward. ]

Let's go, cutie.

[ thorns is no longer the only qt. ]

Okay...

[ thorns doesn't get the secrecy but alright then. he will let elysium lead the way since he seems to have an escape route in mind. ]

he is not going to be the one to break their silence.

[ why does he want to kill elysium in every thread that we have

guess they are just going to walk for a long time in silence. thorns has no problems with staying quiet. it is his default state of existence. ]

Not really.

[ there is a thin line between love and hate or something like that

but also this is how they keep their relationship healthy? (this specific relationship is not healthy in the slightest.)

anyhoooooo, elysium being elysium is incapable of staying quiet, so he will dutifully take his yaps to docybara. he is so used to being ignored and having to ram his snout against them for attention that he is perfectly content with this development… this will not come to bite them in the ass later. sometimes the worst drug of them all is attention.

Nah, I'm fine.

[ A HOODIE IS PERFECTLY NORMAL? ]

You, though——hold still for a sec.

[ somehow he manifests another baseball cap, pair of sunglasses, and face mask. they all go on thorns. ]

We match now.

[ okay!!!!!!!!

eventually, thorns will stop walking. he stares off ahead of them, before turning to the other two. ]


Stay here. I'll be right back.

[ he does not wait for a response he figures if elysium is ignoring him then he won't argue. ]

[ okay. so they both look like they are about to go rob a store?

thorns is just going to think that elysium's idea for a date is odd and accept this. ]

You'll know when we get there.

[ for now? he opens the doors to a car that is definitively not his own, (you know those cars you can rent off an app… where you just have to find where the inactive ones are on the map? yeah!) and gesture thorns inside before swinging into the driver's seat. ]

Whew.

[ shakes

he looks up from cooing at docybara, a little stunned. he whines when elysium takes his attention off of him, grunting in dissatisfaction.

Don't go too far…

[ if thorns goes out of visual distance for too long he is toddling after him ]
