[ Even though Josh is quite drunk right now, he's still good with words. (When he's not texting) He just has really, really lowered inhibitions, okay? And is more giggly and touchie as you see-- ]

Relax. You can trust me, you know. We may be from completely different worlds and situations, but we both have things precious to us that we yearn to protect. Mm, and for that, I respect you.

[martelsnotmypeach]

[That isn't making him relax. He's still as tense as he ever was.]

...you do? [Can he trust Joshua? Trust can be so easily broken. It seems that's all that ever happened to his trust--destruction. But Joshua... understands. Mithos needs to keep this in mind.]

[orchestrating]

Mhmmm.

We've known each for a long time, haven't we? [ As long as anyone he knows here, really... Which is a testament to something stable, something concrete... ]

We need to look out for each other. [ Just a giggle and he's leaning his chin on your shoulder. ]

[martelsnotmypeach]

[That is... way more physical contact than Mithos is used to.]

...I... [But it's difficult, putting trust and care into others when he knows how easily it can be taken. At the same time, Joshua has never gone back on his word. Mithos isn't sure how to feel.] ...I guess.

[ Joshua isn't relenting, but he isn't doing anything more, though, so it's all good in that department! ]

I'd say that's enough depression and seriousness for one night.... [ A smirk, though really it was more of a smile at this point. ]

Let's have some fun, hm?

[martelsnotmypeach]

...all right. [Oh, and here we are, back where Mithos and Martel are staying!]

[orchestrating]

[ Oh good! Because he's going to be finding the nearest available couch to sprawl out on <3 ]

Comfortable.

[martelsnotmypeach]

[Mithos slowly slowly slowly begins to relax, but his paranoia remains. He has to keep an eye on the other boy.

And that is why he's finding a chair near Joshua to sit in. Yep, no other reason.]

[orchestrating]

[ OH MY GOD he isn't going to kill your sister calm down. ]

Do you drink, Mithos?

[martelsnotmypeach]

[CALM DOWN? HE CAN'T CALM DOWN THIS IS HIS SISTER WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HIS EVERYTHING HIS LIFE--]

No.

[orchestrating]

No need to get upset.

[ Just leaaaaaning forward off the couch 8D ]

[martelsnotmypeach]

You're going to fall off. [Not that he cares if Joshua does or not. It would be his own fault for being a fool.]

[orchestrating]

[ LUDICROUS! ]

I have surprisingly good balance, Mi-thos~
