So, I'm well aware these posts keep happening because everyone here is afraid of being Known, but... Well. I'm pretty sure if I don't get a permanent bond soon my roommate is going to strangle me, and I'd like to avoid that?

[Saori has very powerful mom energies and Bailey doesn't want to see her angry.]

Anyways, a brief introduction: I'm Bailey, I've been here for a while, I'm a faun... I'm not really sure what I can bring to a bond because things like "oh I can cook and play the piano" don't really seem like much of an offering.

(I can do those things, though.)

I guess I can help keep a witch from exploding, which might be good enough. Anyways, sorry for being another person looking for a bond on the watches. Just... Feel free to offer or ask questions or ruthlessly mock me for waiting this long.

I mean if you have a crippling fear of being Perceived, yes. It's very hard for some people!

[amongst other reasons...]

[battlebound]

( Steak does not get this slang, sry Bailey. )

you're being perceived every time someone looks at you. do you never leave the house?

[polterguide]

[Oh my god??]

It’s a turn of phrase, not literal perception. It’s like... More than that.

[battlebound]

( oh my god he feels so old right now. )

"more than that"?

[polterguide]

...Have you ever had someone say something about you that just hit way too close to home and was kind of unsettling? It's that kind of vibe.

[battlebound]

( this is where, were they face to face, Steak would give Bailey a long stare complete with slow blinking. )

no. why would someone knowing me be a problem?

( in all honesty, maybe once or twice, but they're such small, insignificant moments in his long lifetime that he doesn't feel the need to remember them. this all sounds like so much overthinking, why would anyone care about that? just find someone you trust. )

[polterguide]

[get into the garbage, old man.]

Well, maybe it's not a problem for YOU, but I'm not too keen on it. Besides, I doubt anyone else wants to feel what I'm feeling.

[battlebound]

( he's only 200 years old! )

has anyone ever told you you think too much?

[polterguide]

[ancient and crusty.]

No.

Maybe.

But I think I think an appropriate amount.

[battlebound]

( what's Red Wine then? )

then you should think more about the need to bond and avoid going feral.

( and less about being Perceived. )

[polterguide]

[Also ancient and crusty, honestly.]

Well that's what I'm doing now! Are you bonded to keep from exploding?

[battlebound]

( honestly fair. Steak would agree with that. have you seen the way he dresses? TF. )

i am. i have other slots available if you need.

( ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

[polterguide]

[Compared to how Steak dresses...? Which one is truly worse.]

I'll be fine, Tsutha offered to bond with me. Thank you for the offer, but...

I'm glad you've got at least one!! I think everyone would be pretty annoyed if you exploded.

[battlebound]

( there's nothing wrong with his armour! or all his belts. )

that's good. you should keep an eye on such things.

( he doesn't know who Tsutha is but as long as Bailey isn't about to go feral. nobody needs a runaway sheep. )
