Who: Astralin and you! Where: Meadowlands, on his new farm. What: Astralin needs help setting up his new farm, anyone is welcome to help out. Warnings: None.
Prompts below! If you want to mingle, feel free to make your own prompts.
[Hm. There's still that part of Shinji that doesn't see Astralin as anything close to aloof— but then, the circumstances of how they met kind of nipped that reputation in the bud real quickly. Even so, the way Astralin talks about himself...]
Nah. You can be as aloof as you want. If anyone gives you shit for looking out for yourself, they're not worth the time.
[He shrugs, like, it's that easy! And it's really not, and he knows that, but he doesn't see any reason Astralin has to push himself past his comfort zone that quickly. Sure, eventually maybe, but right this second... nah.
Just give him a call and he'll start swinging, honestly--]
And, uh— ....It's not really a secret, but... not everyone has to know.
[There's been enough putting up with shit about being an orphan in his life, so while it isn't a particularly deep secret at all, he's glad Astralin isn't going to go telling his life story all over town. Who knows how Aldrip- or even the other Chosen- will react, after all. So. Yet again:] Thanks.
[And for his favorite chicken, with the vaguest ghost of a chuckle(!!),] She's made it past scrambling. It's a badge of honor.
[I mean, Shinji's not wrong, and Astralin knows that. There isn't a reason why he needs to change for anyone, and honestly, he has no reason to. It seems that there are people that like him for who he is, and that was enough for him. Enough for a silent smile to creep upon his lips. That smile only growing bigger as it shifts into a light laugh.]
You need not worry, I have no intention of telling anyone your secrets. They are safe with me.
[Oh man. He still can't get over the name, to be honest and every part of him does want to laugh. It's almost hilarious.]
It is a cute name... If you feel so inclined, feel free to name the other animals as well. I would have just named them after flowers, as I am not very creative.
