He stopped to think. Could he ever raise one on his own? Raising someone else’s was one thing, but raising his own was another.“ShIt, BrOtHeR. i dOn’t mOtHeR FuCkInG KnOw. I DoUbT I’D HaVe tHe mOtHeR FuCkInG PaTiEnCe tO DeAl wItH My oWn oNe.”
“D —> Ah, so you’re more suited for the role of a temporary caretaker than a full-time one
“D —> That’s understandable”

“D —> Do you think you could ever raise grubs of your own
“D —> That is what I’ve been doing
“D —> Well, one grub at least
“D —> I have had previous e%perience with a few young ones belonging to others
“D —> I hardly ever see them anymore”
hopefully she’ll be a better behaved little wriggler than i was.well to be fair i wasn’t in the company of a lusus that took the role too seriously. least not that part.
>You shrug and purr to the grub that’s resting on your head. It’s moments like this that help you to feel a little less broken.
D —> I don’t think we will need to worry about that
D —> I’m sure I will be able to instill some manners into her
D —> You will be a good girl, won’t you, Areion
>You smile up at her.

[[Should Equius or Gamzee wear the dress? Or both?]]
So taking an arrow to the knee is proposing, in Nordic, right?
And when you get married, they say you “tie the knot”.
you’re nothing but perfect.>You smile and nuzzle him a bit before your eyes dart up to Areion. You haven’t been keeping a proper track of her age but you have noticed she’s growing.
i guess that before long the little wriggler will start to pupate. or am i off?
D —> Yes, I think it may be getting close to that time
D —> I’m so e%cited
D —> Soon she will be on two legs and have fingers and toes

>You smile at the grub, lifting your hand to rub between the tiny horns. You’re pretty glad that you’ve at least managed to cuddle the grub occasionally between your zoned out nature.things have been weird recently. i’m trying to keep things down. being without a moirail makes it a little more difficult to keep myself in check. i’m trying though. it helps that you’re here.
>Areion nuzzles at the hand and grasps at it with her little front legs, squeaking and chittering.
D —> I’m glad that you haven’t harmed anyone or gotten yourself hurt recently, at least
D —> I should try talking to you more too
D —> Admittedly, I’ve been a little distracted
(Source: horsefeatherfletching)
>You smile as your eyes drift to Aerion and you give a soft little sigh. You continue to purr but you know he deserves more than just cuddles and purring considering how long you’ve been distracted.
why do you even put up with me these days?
>Areion notices the cuddling going on and crawls over to join in, climbing up on top of Gamzee and nestling in his hair.
D —> I adore you and you’re special to me
D —> I enjoy moments like this with you, even if they have been fewer lately

terminallycorrupt replied to your post: >crawl over your matesprit and cuddle him because you’re a terrible matesprit that needs to pay more attention to your equibird and less time staring blankly at the walls.
>no you’re definitely terrible because you asked him to pretty much move in with you and your mind has been lost for ages. smooch him though and give him that deep rumbly purr because wow he’s still too perfect.
>Even in his absent-mindedness, you still love this clown and his purr. You chirp happily and rest your head against his chest, listening to the sound.
>crawl over your matesprit and cuddle him because you're a terrible matesprit that needs to pay more attention to your equibird and less time staring blankly at the walls.
>Cuddle with your matesprit, smooch his face, and be happy to see him. No, he’s not terrible. Shoosh.

He still had some sense in his system to let him know that these little grubs needed to be taken care of gently. Hell, he loved the things. They were all happy around him and kept wanting to touch his face and all. What a miracle of life it was.
“D —> Oh good
“D —> They’re lucky to have been in your capable hands
“D —> I bet they had an e%cellent time staying with you”
He just hoped that the little ones wouldn’t have absorbed enough speech skills from him to retain his obscenities. At least Equius would probably be able to keep his child’s language clean.
capriciouscandyman started following you

*Unless they murder you while you’re only trying to help them or something similarly terrible, but that hasn’t happened in a while. Still, you never know with trolls his color of blood.*
Shift his indigo coloured eyes to the side as he stood for a good while and started to think. Did he have any grubs in his care? Huh. If he did, then he hadn’t seen them for a good while.“NaH, bRoThEr. I DoN’T ThInK I HaVe aNy oF ThOsE MoThErFuCkErS WiTh mE LaTeLy.

Why or how they were even close to using a last resort as Gamzee for a babysitter was beyond quite a few people. Was he really that good at- Well.. He does have an active imagination, I guess..
That little pause to consider whether or not Gamzee currently had any grubs worried Equius a little. Does he regularly forget about what wigglers he has in his care?
“D —> You don’t think you have any
“D —> You at least keep them alive and well when you do have them, don’t you”
Just who in the world would entrust this guy with babies, anyway?
