It's fine. Honestly, I'm not all that surprised.

[beariot]

Bonds have a way of magnifying everything. Thoughts, feelings, even the barest subconscious sensations. I suppose we were already compatible personalities and it just... accelerated it all.

[loadme]

You're very fortunate to have that.

[beariot]

Well you have a bonded, too, right?

[ Not that she could imagine Monika and Bendy having anything quite like what she and Fang had... ]

[loadme]

I do, and I'm very happy to have Bendy with me. But it's never really going to be the same as what you and Fang have.

And I'm alright with that.

[ Her teacher's intuition was telling her it very much wasn't... But this is where she wasn't sure she could help, either.

But that didn't mean she wasn't going to try. ]

Monika, I hope this isn't an 'uncool' thing of me, and adult, to suggest but

have you considered dating, here? As in courting another young person, near your age.

[loadme]

You're the coolest person I know, Ursula ♥

But no, I've never really thought about that! The last relationship I tried to have, it didn't go so well for me.

I was way too clingy, and I tried to be the center of their world.

Honestly it was pretty embarrassing.

I just don't want to fall back into old habits.

[beariot]

I think being able to recognize that is a sign of maturity, though. But I understand if you're hesitant, all the same.

[loadme]

It's more than just being hesistant.

Before I made it here, I wasn't a very good person.

[Did she even qualify as a person?

A question for another time.]

So I've been trying to change, and distancing myself from things I used to do before.

Do you think that's silly?

[beariot]

I think that's very mature of you, actually.

I don't want you to feel pressured, either way. So long as you're making friends, I'm happy.

[loadme]

Can I see you once you come back?

It's nice that we can still talk like this, but being with you in person is better.

[beariot]

Of course! It's been awhile since I had some good coffee, or good company to drink it with.
