*she shakes her head again, wrapping her legs around you and hugging on tighter, shaking. smiley looks at the two for a moment, before walking back to the basement, giving them space*

*she shakes her head vigorously, her tail wrapping around you as she sobs*

smiley: 'h-hey- watch it-!' .....

....*she latches onto you and starts crying again, hugging you incredibly tight* n-no-

...*she stays silent and tries to hide the tears, her lip quivering*

smiley: '......are you really this dense-? o b v i o u s l y.' *=_=*

....*there are still fresh tears running down her face, she blinks and hides behind smiley*....

smiley: *he gives you a flat look* 'thosa are fresh, dipshit. now. as i was saying. does this-' gestures to her* '-look fine. to you?' *he raises a brow*

smiley: *he rolls his eyes* 'just look outside, dumbass.'

!! ...*she looks at you, her cheeks nearly solid black from the tears. she looks miserable*..o-oh....

smiley: .....*he stares at where the clone was for a moment, before looking at her, then back at you. he points to her and speaks to you telepathically* 'does this look f i n e to you?'

smiley: *he grabs you by the shirt and holds you off the ground, turning you to look at him. his face is stern and flat, not the usual smiley*......not......true.....-

*she jumps out and runs at s,iley, pulling at his other arm w her eyes closed, tears still streaming* go damn it- l-let him go, smiley-!! l-leave him be-

smiley: *steps back in your way, rooting himself to the ground. he leans down to you and shakes his head slowly, his smile is gone*

*she notices what hes doing and panics a bit, still hidden*

....*she starts to reach out to you, but cuts herself off. she sinks back into the shadows and stays quiet, tears streaming down er face*

*smiley is still watching from the trees, reading her mind. he suddenly walks out and blocks your path, without saying a word*

....thank you....*she lets go of your face, wiping her eyes again and looking down*

....*she watches him quietly, resisting the urge to run out to him. she hugs the side of the trees trunk softly as she peeks out at him, her tail swishing out, visible*

no....you dont....*she frowns, tears welling in her eyes again as her lip quivers*...please promise me you wont...

....*she watches you, and tears start to form in her eyes again. she lets out a loud sob, before covering her mouth*

n-no- no...punishing yourself...i dont want you hurting yourself...*she holds your face gently*...please dont...

[ah- damn]
*she growls loudly by accident, before kicking the trees trunk w great force, knocking your shrooms off*

....*she sighs* hm....i..dont really know what to do now...

....*she frowns, knowing youre not okay but not sure if she should keep asking. instead, she just jumps back on you, hugging you tighter*...
