[broca]

[ There must be some kind of siren's call that a pair of fuzzy ears have to people. It's not something that Broca has ever really understood, but he also grew up in a place where they're so common that it's rarer to see people without. Not unusual, of course, the birds, snakes, and fish of the world don't tend to come equipped with extra fur, but he grew up in Siracusa were nearly everyone was a fox or a wolf.

Seems that the lack of those kind of features in other worlds makes people unable to assess what is and isn't appropriate to ask for. A damn shame, but Broca's getting more used to the question than people seem to be getting used to Broca.

When it's someone he trusts though, it can feel nice to have someone rub across the base of them, just like an warm hand rubbing comfortingly across an arm is pleasant. Not a bad thing to be touched, just a weird question to ask of a stranger.

Sizhui isn't a stranger though, and Broca is able to relax and close his eyes as the younger man starts to gently stroke them. ]

A lot of people don't have much sense.

[ Just as a casual confirmation of Sizhui's comment there. ]

[deferences]

[or something like that because, as it can be noticed, not even sizhui is immune to the ears despite having his own on many occasions. maybe it's different for him because he enjoys it a lot? it might also have something to do with him growing up in a place where they weren't everywhere; nobody had animal appendages back on his homeworld and if they had, they probably would've been shunned for being different. after four years of having them, however, he does finally understand that at least asking before going in for a touch is the polite thing to do.

in this case, broca offered, so he needn't worry too much about it, but at least broca seems to be getting used to people and his ears.

watching broca's expression soften feels nice, too. he continues rubbing the ears, lingering near the bases whenever possible since he is well-aware how sensitive they can be there.

sizhui huffs a soft laugh and nods in agreement, lifting up higher on his arm, to the point where he can lean in a little closer and briefly nuzzle broca's forehead — just the slightest bit of extra affection before he pulls away entirely and settles back down, one arm draped across his side and the other tucking underneath his head as he gets comfortable again.]

You're definitely right about that, unfortunately.

[broca]

[ Not that people can't get shunned in Broca's world for similar things. Depending what nation your from, things can sometimes get real nasty for those of you that have specific kinds of differences. The Sarkaz in particular take a pretty hefty brunt of that ire, though Infected individuals like Broca have their own problems to deal with.

Fortunately for him, his own country of Siracusa didn't much seem to mind, but there are places...

Well, irrelevant now. What matters is he's with someone who understands the woes of being a fuzzy eared person among a crowd of those who are lacking them. People have a tendency to get carried away in their excitement...

Though with the right person, it can feel nice, a puff of rumbling air escapes him, a tiger's chuff in response to the gentle feeling of Sizhui's fingers gently playing over his ears as his face presses affectionately against Broca's forehead.

He looks relaxed, sated by the affection, and hums out a low note of agreement. He knows that he is, though he's slowly learning to deal with some of it. ]

[deferences]

[that's not at all surprising, to be honest. it makes sense that there would be tension between people in every world for some sort of reason and it just so happens to be those particular reasons for broca. (for sizhui, it would be because of his bloodline, but he doesn't think about that around places like this—) though it's lucky for them both, they are accepted fine back in their homeworlds.

sizhui can't help smiling faintly at the rumble, clearly pleased with himself and the fact that broca's so relaxed. he's quite tempted to reach out and continue petting him, but he's already resettled and doesn't really feel like moving around again, given the fact that tiredness is slowly starting to set in the longer he lies there.

it feels super nice to know that he's one of those people who can be allowed such affection, though.]

I'm glad that it seems like you've been settling in here alright, then.

[broca]

[ Quiet moments like this are harder to come by in Terra sometimes, though Broca's life in Rhodes Island affords him a lot more than when he lived in his home country of Siracusa. Actual peace without having to keep one eye open at all times...

That said, there's a slight disruption in the sound as it becomes something more of a scoffing snort for a moment. ]

Let's not go that far.

[ Comfortable with Sizhui is one thing, but settling in here is another entirely. He doesn't like the idea of getting comfortable with the Golden Peacock for any number of reasons. ]

[deferences]

[sizhui isn't unused to quiet moments like this, but he wasn't used to having them with someone that he's been intimate with before. he had them with a few people on the other two worlds he visited, sure, though something feels different with broca. maybe it's something to do with the fact they seem to get along really well without it having to be forced upon them? he's not sure, yet he likes how it feels, nevertheless.

the abrupt change in broca's voice has him pausing momentarily, his eyebrows lifting with consideration before his expression softens again and he inclines his head.]

My apologies. I shouldn't have assumed that.

[nobody should want to get used to being somewhere that isn't their home, but sizhui's so used to world-hopping by now, it's almost inevitable that he'll get comfortable and then end up disappearing again.]

[broca]

[ There's probably a difference the further you stay away from home, and even more of one when you're jerked around from world to world without getting to see yours again. Broca wouldn't really know, since this is his first time ever being off of Terra, and his general stubbornness has him refusing to accept the idea that he won't be able to return home soon enough.

It makes it harder also not to get a little combative when people talk like he should be prepared to be here for the long haul too, though he realizes none of them mean anything by it. The hope is for him to not spend his time here miserable, especially from those who have given up on the idea of getting back themselves, but...

He makes a dismissive sound, not willing to say he's fine with the comment, but trying to make it clear he's not overly bothered by it either. ]

I have no intentions of ever settling in.

[deferences]

[a huge difference, really. at some point, you just believe you won't be getting home again and that's how sizhui feels with all this world-hopping. again, he hasn't not enjoyed it, because he has and he likes all the people he's met, but the idea of going home with all this new information under his belt feels . . . bizarre. (maybe he would forget? that would be nice, so he wouldn't have to suffer with it, but something tells him that he would remember something of his time away from home.)

if broca doesn't want to settle in at the golden peacock, sizhui's not going to judge him; he wouldn't want to settle either if it was his first time being somewhere that's not his home. he would be fighting tooth and nail to get back, but he sees no reason not to accept where he's at for now.

he head-bobs with acknowledgement,] I understand. You don't have to settle in if you don't want to. I'm sure you would much rather work toward getting home, much like other people.

[broca]

[ There's a simple stubbornness to Broca in some ways. While he's a smarter man and a more complex thinker than the big, muscle-y silence might make most people assume at a glance, there are plenty of ways where he's very straight-forward. This is one of them. Broca wants to get home, and therefore Broca refuses to accept that he won't.

At the same time a simple thing could change his mind as well. Finding a reason to want to stay, likely in the form of a person or multiple people, could eventually change his goals, though so far no one had managed to earn his loyalty to the same extent as his friends back home.

So he will go back to them. It's not a question of if, but a matter of when as far as he's concerned. Go home, or die trying.

He makes a vague noise of agreement at that, just to make sure it's clear that yes, that is very much his stance, but just to drive in his point he'll add one little bit. ]

No matter how long it takes.
