Given everything going on, this might not be seem that important, but hear me out because I've been struggling with this myself for a while.

We need a 'dating' site/app for finding bonds. Either temporary or long term.

Any tech savvy person able to help with this?

Yeah, so I've been told. And I'm glad it worked out for you. Honestly, it'd be easier if it was just physical relationships. For me, at least.

I have issues.

I'm also bonded with another monster, my partner from home. Still don't regret it, but it does make things difficult.

you definitely aint the only one. basically every person who talks about it goes on about how they're worried about it. and it ain't my favourite but like I said, its better than just ignoring it and hoping i dont fuck someone up.

it just seems irresponsible not to get one just because someones embarrassed about feelings or whatever the hell. putting other people in actual danger cause you dont want a stranger to know what youre feeling is just stupid.

so if your bond-site idea can help people get over that then lets get everyone on it, shit. last thing i need's to get attacked by a crazed harpy in the road again.

[It's a vicious gut punch of logic and emotions, and there's a long pause before she texts back.]

I've been lucky so far, but your point hit its mark. Though it's more than that, it's inflicting your trauma onto someone else. People don't need to have my darkness and traumas thrust upon them without warning.

Did bonds protect people from the mists that made near everyone feral? Seems even if you do everything 'right', shit still goes sideways and people can still get hurt.

[Or enslaved.]

I think it might force people to deal with it if it's easier to start conversations. Maybe start friendships too.

I'm Sheva, by the way.

if it helps i aint gotten context for most of the shit that comes from my bonded. so i can pretty much decide if i wanna ask 'em about it or just leave it alone. and it aint like a constant flood either. being closer makes it stand out a bit more but other than that i aint feeling their feelings all the damn time

then again they say they're better at it than me so who knows maybe theyre dealing with all my bullshit.

[There's a faint pause before the next response, but only a short one.] you aint wrong about the mist thing though. or the idea for making it easier for people. real easy not to give a damn if you know you can just stop existing any day.

Shinjiro. goods to meet you.
