[ STOP OFFERING HER YOUR ROOMS yall are so embarrassing....... 😭 ]
Seriously, I learned that the hard way, so you really didn't have to tell me twice. But you can't expect me to get used to people treating me kindly right away. That's not how it works.
[ it took ishmael several months, so much blood spilled in the heart of the whale, and countless turns of the clock just to realize that she isn't alone. she will spare mona this tale for now. ]
but hmm. interesting how mona's not allowed to deduce her own fate, but ishmael's going to put that aside for now to scowl at the other part of this message. ]
I won't go peeking without your permission, rest assured. Truthfully, I've already been scolded for using my magic here.
And there is no need to warn me, either. I've seen countless cruel and unusual fates over the years. If I were surprised now, then I wouldn't be considered the best at what I do.

Would you really reject shower amenities or a handful of snacks? I have plenty to spare. Come, now, Ishmael. The basement is dreadful.
[ the second message is deserving of a more serious response, so mona does sober up. ]
But I do understand. If not for my abilities, I believe I would be far more skeptical of others. I am fortunate in knowing who I can trust.
I do have a suggestion, however.

[ she's already been crashing over at gregor's rn, but she can't just hog all of them forever 😭 ]
It must be useful, huh. Being able to see the immediate future. You won't have to be afraid of fucking something up if you know what's coming.
But sure, hit me.

And I'm afraid it isn't so simple. We astrologists are advised to never divine our own fate. It can have disastrous consequences.
...Well, theoretically I *could*, but I'd rather adhere to my teachings.
[ she got nerfed.... ]
Anyway, my suggestion is simple: start with me. I'd like you to lower your walls enough to view me properly.

[ and yet, she'll forever carry that with her with no regrets. she just doesn't want to freak mona out with all dat. ]

[ but mona will let it go... for now. there may be a time where ishmael allows her to do some wading. ]
Regardless, you will not be pushing me away entirely, will you?

But if you mean hanging out, then... I don't mind.

I'll admit receiving your affirmation was like pulling teeth.
