And now you call me a liar. My reputation is being slandered as we speak.
[He doesn't need to see Molly to know that he'd be just fine in Hugo's arms for that night. The Molly of just an hour or so ago was a completely different one than now.]
I've always been quite confident in them. And if I had to rely on them again, I'd say you are feeling a little...safer than you were before.
ah yes i shall run for the hills yelling at the top of my lungs what a terrible liar you are all of kaisou shall hear of your terrible terrible ways
[ it is nothing short of magic really, how the combination of Hugo's presence and Lycaon's assurances have eased him back into the light. their combined might soothed the anxiety that surged through his veins and gnawed on his mind. ]
yeah you're right
hey i have a feeling you're gonna scrutinize caleb make sure he isn't a danger [ Molly had thought about broaching this subject in the morning, give them both the run down before any other steps are taken. but... ] he's not for the record he's i told hugo that he's like my version of you
Molly, I regret to inform you that 'the hills' and Kaisou are in two separate directions.
[He's so glad this is text. He actually audibly chuckled.]
[But his typing pauses for a second, letting that sink in. It was true, he had fully planned to put feelers out for Caleb. He already had a little with the network post. It seemed only right that he do it.]
Not to worry, I had no intentions of being uncivil. [Yet.]
[ really, he could have waited until the morning to do this. but he's painfully awake, even a little wired, and suddenly possessed by a fear of Caleb being treated poorly because of how Molly reacted to him. ]
it was the closest thing i could think of a bit stupid really but not entirely wrong
[ more details, tealeaf. ]
saying its complicated would be putting it lightly i'll get the hard stuff out of the way now because if i don't i'm not sure i ever will yes i fancied the man and if he wasn't the personification of a cornered animal i might've actually done something about it when i first met him but fuck i don't know there's too much there now that i don't know about
[Ordinarily he'd probably advise to have this all said in person. That it's probably best that way. But this is so much and he can tell Molly's overflowing with emotion, mental clarity hitting him.]
I spoke with him a little, and he seemed like a soft spoken man with wit behind his words. I was struggling to find any malice. [And he's usually pretty good at picking up THOSE cues.]
I believe I am understanding more of the situation. It is no wonder you panicked the way you did. It must've been an overflow of emotions for you.
[ it's all still there, sitting in the middle of his chest, quietly biding it's time as he staves it off with the comfort of friends. there's so much he doesn't know where or how to begin, but he'll leave that for the morning. ]
from what i can remember you'd have a hard time finding any unless you hurt his cat
[ oh. oh god. he named his ghost cat after Caleb's familiar. ]
i mean considering i'm quite literally tangled up with your boyfriend maybe it's for the best you don't we'd both enjoy it i'm sure but it'll be awkward to deal with the aftermath
Hugo!! You son of a bitch!! [ there is now a very flexible tiefling trying his best to try and take Hugo's phone from him. all the while remaining entangled with the man. ]

[That is NOT what that phrase means, Lycaon.]
Let us leave this topic for the morning. It will be much easier with us both there.
And I will need to do some shopping in order to make you and the man you've ensnared a decent breakfast. Any requests?
no subject
[ and it's terribly endearing. ]
yeah okay sounds good
i'd kill for some blueberry pancakes actually
no subject
I digress. Slang is much more difficult than French or Japanese.
[Lycaon grabs his pen and paper to add that to the list.]
It will be done--I hope you don't mind if I occupy your kitchen tomorrow morning. With your pancakes, I'm going to make bacon, eggs, and French toast.
[For their local french boy. He is planning on making. SO much. You'll have leftovers.]
no subject
it's not the fanciest kitchen in the world but i'm sure you'll make do
no subject
I'm quite low maintenance that way.

you keep talking like that and it's gonna give me ideas

Dear Mollymauk, do I need to switch to audio again?
no subject
maybe it's for the best you don't
we'd both enjoy it i'm sure but it'll be awkward to deal with the aftermath
Switch to Audio but not for the way you think
That was so mean! Using the B word. RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS PANCAKES?
Unfortunately he'd flicked the Audio switch already, and so Molly gets the most undignified snort/yip before he quickly turns it off.]
You are a menace. I will see you tomorrow morning.
not here

He needed proof, and that was perfect. Thank you, Darling. [ Just going to kiss his forehead in the middle of trying to hold his phone out of reach. ]
no subject
which to say no grace at all.
Mollymauk pouts, the spade of his tail still wrapped around Hugo's waist smacking the man's chest irritably. ]
I love you, but you are the worst.

He is the shy type. He closed up in record time. If he was a cat, I could imagine his fur was fluffing up.
