Oh!

[She blinks. Honestly appropriateness hadn't occurred to her. It's just a hug, in her mind.]

You're worried I'll think you're a pervert or something?

[axiomed]

That . . . was my concern, yes.

[mistyday]

A pervert wouldn't be worrying if he was a pervert, would he?

[axiomed]

It's true.

[ His whiskers twitch. ] Being a teacher, I find myself very conscious of that.

[mistyday]

Somehow I think you'd be careful anyway.

[axiomed]

I try to be careful in all things. I have to be.

[mistyday]

Don't that get stressful sometimes?

[axiomed]

Yes.

But as a telepath, I don't think I have the luxury of stopping.

[mistyday]

Ain't there anyone you can, you know... relax around? Be yourself?

[axiomed]

I'm very fortunate to have people I can trust and trust me to be around them.

[mistyday]

That's good. It's important to have people like that. And maybe... we can be that for each other some day too?

[axiomed]

. . . Yes. I'd like that.

[mistyday]

[Her smile is bright and full of hope as she gives his head another scritch.]

I'm glad Winter told you to find me.

[axiomed]

Did he say anything else?

[mistyday]

Nah, you know him... stays quiet most of the time.

[axiomed]

[ The otter huffs lightly. ]

I keep trying to get him out more. It's a work in progress.

[mistyday]

That's good... I think what happened on the Iskaulit freaked him out, so he went back in his shell again.

[axiomed]

That would put a dent on any good man, sadly.

[mistyday]

He's getting better, though, right?

[axiomed]

I believe so.

[ Bucky's mind is certainly calmer these days. No storm, no turbulent waters. ]

And he will continue to do so.

[mistyday]

[She nods.]

I hope he can be happy.

[axiomed]

I am positive he can be.

[mistyday]

He deserves it! Especially after everything that's happened.

[axiomed]

I don't doubt that. But that's a conclusion he needs to come to on his own.

[mistyday]

Don't mean we can't help him along a little bit.

Speaking of helping, what do you say we work together on the kelp here? I'm trying to remake Vision's kelp farms for the Paisley.
