Can't believe this is gonna be my first post on here, awkwaaard lol.

This place is full of romantics. I've met a bunch of Witches and Monsters who're getting together in pairs, three-of-a-kinds, and some are even going for full houses. I'm in a bit of a pickle and I'd like some advice on the problem, since everyone's probably way better at figuring this stuff out than me. And, actually, it's more like a couple of problems? Because I really, really like two separate people.

I know this is a story as old as time and if I don't be careful I could make a huge mess of everything, but I genuinely don't know what to do with myself. "You can't have your cake and eat it, too," is a really relevant expression to use here, I feel, and overall I've got so little experience asking one person out let alone multiple. Both of them are unique and couldn't be more different, which is probably what's making the decision on who to try for so difficult. They're both funny and attractive, but one's super smart, affectionate, and dynamic, while the other's strong, willful, and considerate.

What are your thoughts? Am I overthinking it, or being too callous? Having crushes on your friends is normal, but how about moving forward with both of them? Sorry if this is weird, or no one actually gives a shit. I do, and I hope to hear from you. Thanks!

P.S. You don't need to get all detective on me just because I'm anon, but if you do figure out who this is? Please don't be a dick and spread your knowledge (totally wishful thinking, but I think I've been cool enough with everyone and I hope they don't think I deserve that).

P.P.S. If the people I'm talking about figure out who this is? Yikes, first of all, but no pressure. I mean it.

That's a really nice thing to say, so thanks. I'll try to take that one to heart.

(awww... mikasa...

jonas is in no way an expert, but hearing that boosts his confidence where his ongoing issues are concerned. maybe he's not as bad at it as he thinks. maybe he can do this.)

I've got two people I'm bonded to, actually. Two monsters. They're not huge handfuls yet, but they get themselves in a lot of trouble and I'm just happy to be around to help them out.

Getting used to their feelings is tough sometimes, but our bondeds have to put up with us just as much as we put up with them. It's good to check in occasionally to make sure everyone's happy.

[stopfen]

I keep being told to get another. It sounds like a mess.
Though temporary ones sound easier.

He seems happy enough. Missing home but happy.
I took lessons on the coven on how to block things from going across, after the mirror dream it's for the best.

[coherer]

One solid bond is good and you seem slow to let ppl in. By that I mean you seem mistrusting, which is totally okay. I think that's a good way to be in this place. But temp bonds are cool, I personally really like them.

I'm missing home, too. I'm sure he'll be back soon.

How are your lessons going? Are they smth anyone can take?

[stopfen]

The coven tells me it should have been a witch bond.

I don't know. It'd be a pain in my ass if he did.
It seems easy enough. There's a lot of thinking though.

[coherer]

Oh, are you guys monster-monster? That could get pretty chaotic, yeah. idk how temp bonding with a witch would go, but you might wanna do a trial run. If you guys ever wanna temp bond with me (for a super short time, because I've got two monsters tethered to me rn), I can try. But think on it.

Hahahaha, girl you're speaking my language. I'm not too good at thinking hard, I'm a pretty hands-on "do it yourself" kinda guy. That's why magical theory's so hard, but actually casting it is easy ig.

[stopfen]

Yes, he's a chimera and I'm a fae. He has another bond with a witch though.
All the witches I know vanish.

[Sad trombone. Also she was one magic starved fae, given they needed a lot to do anything.]

I did good in the lessons. But reading is so boring. It makes everything sound more complicated.

[coherer]

I'm sorry, that must be really upsetting. I hope they've gone home to lead better lives than they were here.

Reading is boring, LOL. We've got more in common than I thought, tho I don't wanna compare you to me. What's your favourite thing ever to learn/do?

[stopfen]

[The first part doesn't get a response. She didn't really talk about home with everyone. That tended to end up in them asking about her home and...titans.]

I like gradening, working out, sewing and knitting.

[coherer]

(why does she sound like a good fit for sasuke..... no, never mind that.)

Cool hobbies, maybe we should go on a run sometime together. I don't know how to sew or knit, though, so that's right out.

[stopfen]

When? I normally go early in the morning before work. But it's good to go at different times of the day to build endurance.

[coherer]

Any time of day, really. In the morning before class, in the early evening after class, late night, etc.

[stopfen]

What kind of distances do you do? I go on a long run and a shorter one when I take my dog to play.

[coherer]

Mostly long ones, but that depends how lazy I feel that day.

If you don't want to, maybe we'll meet up accidentally sometime. Either way, I'm totally game. No pressure or anything.
