You ever see the hit animated Disney classic Fox and the Hound? Think of this as a fox wanting to know how strong the hound next door's commitment to hunting is. Don't need to know the pedigree or even really the training, just how safe you'd feel around her if you were a fox.
You know I seem to recall one of the key parts of that film being the friendship between the aforementioned fox and hound stop In fact comma that was the whole reason for the waterworks towards the end stop Any foxes and hounds in this situation is purely proverbial wot stop There are only people who really ought to talk to other people stop
April legitimately spends five minutes just lying back on their couch with their phone on their chest, staring at the ceiling. God damn it. April hates getting taken down by their own setup. There, they said it, they acknowledged it. Goddamnit.
If someone ever asks you about me could you send me a transcript or something of you giving them the same runaround? I'd love to know what this looks like from the outside.
Now now comma a gentleman never kisses and tells stop You'll just have to luxuriate in the knowledge that I'm doing it at all stop Because I will if anyone does ask stop Ones privacy in these kinds of matters is of vital importance stop It applies to everyone or nobody at all stop
By all means gripe away stop Just don't expect my answer to change stop Anyone could ostensibly be a monster or could hurt us comma that's just the risk we take with any stranger stop We are only rewarded when we choose to trust beyond concern for our own safety and self interest stop Good luck stop
There is, of course, more April wants to say, but they've been hard-blocked enough times now to almost feel embarrassed about it, so they'll finally take the hint and the L.
A final message a few minutes later, just to show there's truly no hard feelings here either:
Also let me know if/when you feel like opinionating on the big names of our respective worlds again sometime, I'm good whenever. 👍🍸

Ok fair enough. Guess this fox is going to find out how much of a prey drive the hound has. Cheers.
wait nevermind they're shit at letting things go, one more follow up:
Seriously though would a 'she's nice don't worry' or a 'look out if you're a monster' be so bad?
(I know, I know, I'm just griping here.)
