We would have to make a really small one for Hanabi and maybe make a little knife to go with him. [ How cute! ]

I can try to make the big Datz one.

[unsync]

There's like, quarter-sized papers, I think that'll be good enough. I don't want to treat him like he's a baby.

[ He is, in fact, older than Mizuki, who is also smol but self-sufficient. The way Mouse dorm is kind of like his work family in a way. ]

Yeah, a knife shouldn't be too hard either.

[ Even though he was not going to suggest making the knife on purpose, it's too late. ]

[becomemod]

Hehe. He's a little bit of a baby.

[ Just a little! ] Okay! Time to make some mice. [ They will start folding a big one for Datz ] Do you know how to do foxes, too?

[unsync]

[ By quarter I mean, a quarter of the size of normal origami sheets, not that the paper is a size of a quarter. I need to make that clear. ]

Uhm... yeah, pretty sure. I learned how to fold a lot of animals here and there as a kid. Did it a lot with my brother and for kindergarten.

If not, there's probably a craft book telling you how somewhere in here.

[becomemod]

[ THE TINIEST OF MOUSES.

That does get them to pause for a moment before they scoot closer to him. Time to lean into him. ]

Maybe we should bring the book with us and we can teach the others? Oh! Does Tama know how to do it?

[unsync]

[ I'm losing my ass why does Dreamwidth hate me so much today suddenly.

He seems a little startled but, well. It's not like he's going to push Mouse away, that'd be so mean. ]

Um, yeah, sure. If you want. I think Tama normally can know a bit of anything, because she's really good at researching [ Googling. ] but she doesn't have access to all that so... maybe she might not.

[becomemod]

[ It's comfort since they are on brother talk. ]

It could be fun. We had a very good talk the other day.

[unsync]

Yeah? What did you talk about?

[ While he's drawing folding a green mouse. ]

[becomemod]

You. [ Folding Datz Mouse ] And stuff about my world.

[unsync]

What kind of stuff about me?

[ He kind of figures that this would be a topic of conversation from Tama. Since like. He's a good 50% of what she knows.

Draws on a jacket on this mouse. ]

[becomemod]

That you're very nice and friend-shaped!

[ Are they going to out Tama? Not fully. ]

I should add a purple scarf, huh?

[unsync]

[ Their weird relationship that people are afraid to ship because they don't trust if it's not weird or not. ]

Oh, thanks.

[ Yeah he just accepts this because he's not entitled to Tama's conversations about him but also this is pretty much what he expects. Although probably phrased like 'he's dumb and is a pushover'. ]

Umm, yeah. We can try to fold it out of paper, or, we can grab some purple yarn and glue it on?

[becomemod]

[ Mouse will ship them if that's what makes them happy. ]

Any time! I really like Tama. She's really pretty and nice.

[ Ryuki is a good boy ]

Oh! We can do yarn. [ They will hop up to get some. ] Should I grab anything else?

[unsync]

Yeah. I don't know where I'd be without her.

[ He really doesn't. ]

I think I'm good here, are you sure you don't want me to come with to pick yarn colours?

[becomemod]

I'm glad that you have someone like that.

[ They worry about the baby ]

You can come! [ They will be your emotional support mouse and make sure you aren't lonely! ]

[unsync]

[ Boy Mouse that is a tall order. But yeah Ryuki will chaperone them.

Submit location change to Mouse dorm about their origami family this week y/n? ]

...Yeah. I told you about how I lost my brother. It made me work hard to get into where I am, but it was really hard. Tama... made that easier, after we met.

[becomemod]

[ Make sure they don't get lost or forget what they were looking for with all these other crafts!

y! ]

How did Tama make it easier? She said you two were always together before, and that's how it was meant to be.

[unsync]

Meant to be...

[ Huh. That's news to him but he's never minded much. ]

When I lost my twin brother, it was like I lost a half of me. We were always together, you know? We were all we had. Our parents died in a plane accident when we were young. So suddenly being alone, it was a little...

...but then I had Tama assigned to me, and, you know.

[becomemod]

[ oh... ] Terrifying? Like you lost a piece of yourself?

[ They reach for his arm.] Tama helped filled that void?

[unsync]

...Yeah. Just like that.

[ Womp womp his life is so hilariously sad and then it's just full on canon behaviour to clown the everloving fuck out of him. Mouse can have his arm, as per usual. ]

[becomemod]

[ This arm is now Mouse's. ]

I know Tama can't always be with you with how things are here, but I'm with you. And I think the others will be there for you as well. It might not be the same, but maybe we can help fill that space up even if a little bit.

[unsync]

[ Only like two people in his life bother telling him this. ]

...Thanks.

[becomemod]

If you need a reminder, I can remind you.

[ Let's look at yarn ] I don't like being alone either. So I won't mind sticking around if you want company.

[unsync]

I don't think anyone should be alone, it just... does things to people. Even people like criminals... things could've been a lot different if they just had someone. Things like that.

[ Pulls down a small ball of purple yarn, how about this one. ]

[becomemod]

[ They nod at that one! Looks like a grape pick ]

Yeah, that's true. I do think it's much nicer having someone there to support you or even remind you when things are wrong. [ They are grabbing orange yarn and comparing it to the orange Ryuki is wearing ]
