We have to menace Macaque.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[dadbeatdad]

I'm all ears.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[schrodingerscockroach]

We feels nervous with us together and him. So we need to be all three together and just bury him in affirmations.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[dadbeatdad]

I like this idea but will he? I don't want to make him more uncomfortable with the idea by springing it on him.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[schrodingerscockroach]

We can talk him into it. I'm pretty good at judging when the push is too far and sometimes he needs that little nudge out of his comfort zone.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[dadbeatdad]

Then I will follow your lead. I'm not the best at that. I fear I push too far when I try.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[schrodingerscockroach]

It'll be okay. If we push too far, we apologize and talk about it to figure out what went wrong. A lot of missteps can be solved by talking about it after.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[dadbeatdad]

True. That makes sense. I suppose I'm nervous about pushing right now. Him or you, honestly.

I am still very much in favor of menacing Macaque.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[schrodingerscockroach]

Something happen for it to be bad right now?

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[dadbeatdad]

I feel as though I overstepped or misspoke when you two were comforting me. I suppose I'm trying to tread more carefully right now.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[schrodingerscockroach]

One, ask Macaque if you did.

Two, keep in mind Mac was also very worried if he was handling things right because actually understanding mental health is new to him. I'm pretty sure he thinks he doesn't have bad brain days, even though he's definitely had them.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[dadbeatdad]

I plan to ask him.

I suppose I was trying to be coy about it. Did I say or assume anything that made you uncomfortable?

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[schrodingerscockroach]

Oh.

Yeah, I didn't catch that.

No, not really? I mean, I had times where I felt like I was intruding on something intimate between you and Macaque, but it wasn't a 'I feel bad' uncomfortable as a 'I definitely do not belong here in this moment and I have no way to leave without ruining it' uncomfortable. Like when you see a couple reuniting after a while and they are kissing just a little too long sort of thing. Its not bad feelings, just what do you do then.

It was helping you, so I just did my best to not be intrusive.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[dadbeatdad]

Oh.

Okay something kinda funny? I think it's funny? I chuckled a little.

I felt the same way when you two were bickering and so in sync at some of the points. I felt the awkwardness. I also feel like my attempts at jokes just fell as flat as I felt.

Thank you for helping me. You did help.

Re: text (I never got this notif.)

[schrodingerscockroach]

I think part of it was Mac was worried about you and trying real hard to not spiral at not knowing what to do. The disadvantage of a guy whose pretty good at a lot of things is it really sucks when you feel like you're floundering. But helping you was more important and I'm pretty sure he was doing plenty to help, right?

Also you were Depressed. It is a special breed of person who can be Depressed and funny, so don't be so hard on yourself.

You were pulling out of it, recovering. That's all we wanted for you.
