deadthing: (gave out long before)

[His shoulders slump. He barely has any idea who Doctor Strange even is, aside from someone Andy plays DnD with(?), so that's not hugely reassuring. He doesn't know what else to do right now or who to talk to either, though. And he can't really ask anyone else. Caleb doesn't count since he already knows, but Andy asked him to keep it secret.]

Maybe.

Have you ever... faced something like that before?
deadthing: (fix me now i wish you would)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Okay.

[He sighs unhappily.]

I'm just worried. I don't like it.
deadthing: ((fix me now))

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
He was pretty freaked out when he told me. It explains... some stuff that's been happening though.

[With the initial burst of panic dulling down to a more manageable level, it may be clear that the underlying emotion the fear threads through is one of deep attachment and care.]

[He sits, offering no resistance. Sighs again.]

I don't think he's told anyone else yet. He asked me not to.

There's his dads though. Not his real dads. They're just- dad-like, I guess. And there's Ky.
deadthing: ((fix me now))

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, they're dating now.

[Noah doesn't know him all that well, but has a vaguely positive impression.]
deadthing: (gave out long before)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Noah shakes his head a little. From what Andy said about figuring out how to tell people, Ky included, he doesn't think that's the case.]

He didn't want to worry him. But I told him he should.
deadthing: (everything i had to give)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going over later anyway, so I'll ask if he wants to.
deadthing: (from hollow into light)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. If we're coming back here, I'll text.

[He's not sure if pizza will be a selling point or not. Depends if Andy's feeling puke-y.]

...Thanks, Caleb.
deadthing: (gave out long before)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, he wouldn't want it blabbed all over.

[Even with permission, Noah's not sure who he would ask for help. Most of the magically-knowledgeable people he knew are gone now. ...Oliver, maybe?]
deadthing: ((fix me now))

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
... His name sounds made-up.
deadthing: (catch me on a better day)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
[That's more weird information than he can really process in a short span of time when he's already hit his stress limit, so Noah just stares for a moment and finally, slowly blinks.]

... ... Oh.

[Sure, comic books are real, why not.]
deadthing: (everything i had to give)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
That's... super weird. [Pun not intended.] Do they know?
deadthing: (take away the things i need)

[personal profile] deadthing 2023-01-03 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Noah cracks the tiniest smile along with a soft puff of laughter.]

Probably. God, I wouldn't want to say anything. It would be so awkward...

'Cause it's either like telling a famous person you know they're famous or, like, telling someone they're not really real.
