A. May not be the objectively healthiest option, but I think sticking your rod in Jess' he/him pussy might help you start coming to terms with this paradigm shift.

A

This is not reconciliation, but it's an icebreaker, at least. You've been given the go-ahead to initiate sex, so go for it. If Jess really isn't bothered by the state of things, then it may at least be an opportunity for you to express yourself in a way Jess can appreciate.

... I was going to support controversy but this is all very terrifying and I'm not sure I'm qualified to give an opinion on this matter. Just make sure Jess is okay with sex of this kind from your perspective.

A.

Placenta!?!
All that and and she-fuck, he is worrying about eating fucking placenta?!? You're in the middle of a goddamn existential crisis and Jess is thinking about something that's like a whole ass year down the like?!?
HAS THIS BITCH EVEN BEEN LISTENING?!?

Nananana fuck this. The only time this bitch listens for sure is when she's being stuffed with your fat cock, so that's what he'll get! Every thought. Every worry. Every feeling. Every ounce of heartache you've been through this past week, everything. He's gonna know EVERYTHING. FEEL everything. And if that means Jess can't fucking walk tomorrow because her every hole was violently filled multiple times and his body left more than a little bruised and battered? So be it.
Shit you won't even have to feel guilty about it. The goddamn fox will probably get off on this shit.

Jess has already lied to you once about something critical to your marriage. We have no idea if he's lying to you again or not.

Honestly the issue first time around that was the breaking point for jess to be more manly was not enough orgasms and the more mushy more emotional sex.
"undiagnosed but suspected mild ASPD" not sure its even suspected more just known but unoffical, and only mild due to some impulse control over the urges of a serial killer......Henry would the news of Jess being a serial killer and you being a accomplice, would it have been easier then this?

Make sure you call Jess a bitch. In fact, you could make that a default term for her.

>>1104030

Let's not lower ourselves just because we've been wronged.

>>1104030
Sure lets do that

Do not call Jess a bitch. And also do not misgender him. You can be angry and upset with him without being a bigot.

>>1104059
Or you could just not feed into the increasingly unstable person's delusions? Im sorry to say but if Jess is willing to have kids she's gonna have to be a MOTHER for the entire length of the pregnancy + breastfeeding the kids.

>>1104059
Upset? Angry?
We got a recipe for rage here.
Everything goes out the window with rage.
There's a reason it's a tragic emotion to experience when it's directed toward a loved one. u.u

You're gonna decorate the whole house for the homecoming and all the decor is gonna be PINK!

>A, use that bitch
Something has to give. Henry feels his baser instincts bubble up from where he’s put them in a box and buried them after his talk with his friends. Oh Jess is going to be thrilled.

He strides around the counter and puts the fox in a headlock from behind. Now normally Henry’s not a huge fan of strangulation because of the potential brain damage, but this is a special exception. Jess squeaks and pushes against the counter to try and dislodge him. There’s a noticeable lack of tap outs and Henry tenses his hold to cut off the flow of blood to the brain.

“You think you’re such a big man now, huh? Well you’re so weak that I can take you whenever I want.” Henry snarls. “I’m going to use your holes until you can’t fucking walk and you’ll learn to listen to me for once. Save your placenta–unbelievable.”

Jess trembles then goes limp in his arms. Henry releases his hold right away and scoops the fox up in a bridal carry. He can smell Jess’s wet cunt as he takes the stairs two at a time.

Henry wants to punish Jess but not permanently injure him in any way. He doesn’t need Jess’s pleasure or active cooperation (though he will adjust if the fox gives him a ‘yellow’), and he especially wants to prioritize his own pleasure. What should Henry do for the scene? They own something in every basic category of sex toy or BDSM implement.

Uh... Hug Jess all night and don't let her move out of the bed, I guess.

Somno! Now's the time. If you can bend Jess over and bind her arms above her to make the torso dangle in the right position for going in from behind, that should let you take your time and milk the holes for all they're worth. Don't bother with protection, and let it out nice and deep.

Fuzzy handcuffs and spreader bars. Good gripping points for different positions. Grab the lube to get started but don't wait long. The harder you go, the more brownie points. You can cash in whenever he's conscious. Never forget how lucky you are he's into this sort of stuff.

>>1104074
Was that not what caused the issue in the first place but also doing that would actually punish her

A thought occurs. Is it possible that you aren't straight or gay but are Jess-sexual and Jess-romantic? As long as Jess is healthy and happy, you want to do things with Jess?

>>1104092
Nice theory, counterpoint: Becca

>>1104096
Another counter point against the jess-sexual theory is just henry on the thought of jess with a strap on or muscles.
Also should we be breaking out a nose hook and sex paddles and boxing gloves to satisfy wife?

Henry put the collar back on
You're losing it

Break out the dildo bat and the clothespins, bind her into the swing. Tape an electro-stim to her clit and keep that remote handy.
Break out the feather tickler too. Once you get the angst out, tickle torture works wonders for any remaining sadistic pettiness.

>Henry’s losing it
Well, he wouldn’t go that far. He’s mad and horny and distraught and he’s probably going to regret this later, but he’s still following all the proper protocols for their sex life.

>Somno?
No time, Jess is already stirring in his arms. Henry hurries to the bedroom before the fox can start swinging and dumps him roughly on the mattress. Jess moans and rubs his forehead while Henry collects supplies.

>Suspend?
They haven’t gotten around to adding anchor points to the ceiling, so Henry settles for a spreader bar and handcuffs for bindings, clothespins, a nose hook, and a wood spanking paddle for flavor. Jess is on birth control and Henry forgoes the lube and condoms in lieu of fucking his pussy raw.

The fox puts up feeble resistance, fuzzy from his brief stint with cerebral hypoxia. By the time Henry strips him and gets his ankles secured, there’s not much Jess can do to resist and he huffs and lashes his tail. Henry snarls to assert his authority.

“You want me to beg for mercy?” Jess asks, voice distorted by the nose rings, as Henry hefts the paddle and positions the fox so his lower body hangs off the bed.

“I’m counting on it.”

He starts beating Jess’s ass, pausing occasionally to make sure he hasn’t missed any signals to slow down. He doesn’t count, goes by feel and the way Jess whines when Henry gropes the bruised flesh. Pretty soon the fox cracks and starts whimpering and sobbing.

Henry fucks him like that, slams into that absolutely soaked tight fox snatch with one hand on the big bushy tail and the other on the leather band of the nose hook so Jess’s head is pulled back at an uncomfortable angle. Jess comes with a shriek, squirming around Henry’s dick, because of course he does. Of course.

Henry wishes he could make this feel worse for Jess–maybe next time he’ll make the extra effort and wrangle the fox into the tub for an enema, he always said he never got nearly as much pleasure from anal.

At least Jess goes back to crying when Henry continues, dragging the fox more into the center of the bed at the cost of one of the clothespins getting flung away, to mount and breed Jess like a proper beast. Henry holds himself in deep when he comes, pictures his swimmers oozing into Jess’s womb. Crushing the little body beneath him with his superior wolf bulk.

Whew, okay, with his head on a bit straighter, Henry sits back and considers his…husband.

A. Keep going (use dildos)
B. Call it there

>>1104110
A) keep going this is to work out the henry frustration perhaps some angry crying and venting while using the dildosword bat thing

A) but gently. just something to keep your hands occupied while you get your thoughts in order.

A.
Yall need to have a sensitive adult conversation after this, so probably best to completely exhaust all emotional neurotransmitters in your brain first so yall can be like, logical n junk.

A.
Got some of that Post nut clarity? Ruminate on that while you use any number of silicone toys. Maybe one that vibrates. Don't break your husband. You're not done yet. Hopefully you won't be done with each other for a good long while.

B) This is all growing terrifying please wake up

A

Jess should know you're serious. Go a little further than you typically do.

Gotta go a bit further this time and be sure to get rid of all the pent up frustration.
Also, where was the collar again? Someone might need some more disciplining.

>A, go further than usual
Normally the post nut clarity after an intense session makes Henry sleepy, but this time he wants to work Jess to exhaustion as well. He retrieves the legendary dildo bat and one of Jess’s multi-colored monster cocks and gets comfortable on the bed, lounging next to Jess’s hips.

He starts with the bat, takes Jess and turns him sideways to get a better angle. The fox hisses when Henry purposefully jabs at his cervix, so the wolf pivots to shorter strokes.

With his free hand, he reaches around Jess’s hip and pinches his clit hard between two claws. Jess jolts and grumbles.

“Yellow, Jeeeesus, get yer mad but don’t hafta to be annoying.” he drawls, hazy and nasal.

>Use the collar or a shock toy
Jess is too close to his limit for that.

Henry relents, cheeks burning from the reprimand. He sticks to working the fox’s relaxed, seed drooling hole as he gathers his thoughts.

Why doesn’t he want to be gay? Well, mostly because he’s quite sure that he’s not gay. It’s not the same situation but Henry assumes it’s like how Jess had to repress his transness, now Henry has to repress his straightness since he doesn’t want an immediate divorce. Separating should happen before any children, but the decision’s also dependent on how Jess reacts to being pregnant and nursing, so that’s a bind.

Henry switches to the Godzilla dick, which he has to be careful with since the electric blue and dark green bulge quickly gets thicker than Jess’s fist. The fox moans and melts, tongue slack. No chance of a serious adult conversation when Jess is floating, though Henry isn’t sure what more can be said. It’ll take time to trust again.

Jess is boneless by the time Henry undoes the bindings and nose hook, and bundles him up in a blanket. He nuzzles at the fox’s hair and closes his eyes.

>A few days later…
Henry rushes around the townhouse, feeling horribly flustered. Cooking took most of the afternoon and Jess is busy with decorations while the living room is still a mess of craft projects and video game paraphernalia. The guests are due in half an hour! Also, worryingly, Becca just texted that something came up last minute and she can’t come. It kind of feels like she’s been avoiding him.

What does Henry do last minute?
A. Grab booze, booze makes everything better
B. Clean!
C. Check on Becca

C, Check up on your friend.

B. People aren't going to be inspecting your closets so start shuffling things in there. Alcohol is not a good idea, especially since most these people need to drive home themselves

It's possible to have a sexual orientation that has an exception for a single, specific individual. That's A Thing.

C)

C) and make sure you have a special emergency services other than 911 on speed dial

C. Girl's flakin'. She's always been flakey but come-on. Go get her or else she'll hide in her house all day.

B

Hospitality is the first order of business; you want your guests to feel comfortable in your house. Booze might be good to offer guests, but it's early to be indulging yourself. Becca is a grown-up, and if she's avoiding you, that's her business.

>>1104235
C) cant have her getting "bad dog" mopey is she sitting at home comfort eating out of jealously/envy also she has been avoiding us for awhile we could not talk with her to vent our emotions. And not seen her so long its actually worrying

C

B

also, you're not gay; your wife is still a biological woman and you're still a biological man. your chosen pronouns won't change that

>>1104289

That's not helpful and is transphobic because woman and man are cultural concepts and there isn't such thing as either in any inherent way, merely clusters of attributes that are culturally associated with one or another.

Henry strongly suspects there’s something mentally or emotionally bothering the dog. It’s been a month since he last saw Becca after they hooked up a second time and Jess confirmed the dog had caught feelings. She’s always been flaky but this is worrying levels of friend avoidance. She’s even been skipping hang out time with the boys! It’s not good for Becca to isolate herself from her support system.

“I’m going over to Becca’s place to check on her real quick.” Henry tells Jess.

“Try to be back before the party starts.”The fox uses his bare foot to shove some of the refuse under the coffee table.

Henry grabs the keys and texts Becca that he’s coming, counting on the fact that she’ll let him in.

>Ponder his rigid brain
If Henry were more flexible in his trans inclusive radical heterosexuality, he’d certainly feel better, but it’s not the way he’s programmed. He has to hope he’ll find a morally consistent way to rationalize being married to Jess in the long run.

>Becca visit acceptance check: Failure
His phone is on silent when he drives, and it’s only when Henry parks at Becca’s apartment building that he sees Becca texted him back.

Becca: Please don’t come.
Becca: I really don’t want to see you.
Becca: I wish you and Jess the best but it’s not good for me to be close to you.

A. Go in and knock anyway
B. Return home

A) Tell her you'll back off if she sees a therapist. Right now, you're getting worried she's trying to convince herself to take a short walk off a long pier.

B. You can be worried about Becca while respecting her boundaries. If she feels that it's bad for her to see you, you should take her word for it. Even if she is having a bad depressive episode, that doesn't mean she's necessarily wrong about what she needs.

Shoot her a text back. Apologize for disturbing her, and make it clear that you only came because you were worried. Agree to leave, but try to coax some assurance out of her that she'll stay safe and not do anything rash.

You might also message a mutual friend to check up on her, explaining that you're worried but cannot personally assist because you may be too close to the issue she's having. If that means you're down another party guest, it'll be worth it to know that your friend is doing alright.

>>1104302
A. Go in and knock anyway
we are already here and that is a good excuse as any to not just drive here for no reason
"I'm Respecting Your Privacy By Knocking But Asserting My Authority As Your Friend By Coming In Anyway" meme energy

A

Further isolation will not do her any good. Talk to her on the phone while you do it--at the very least, it would be nice to have some closure if she's asking you to leave her and never come back. What's the problem? Why can't you see her?

>>1104305
because honestly that message is a giant red flag and i dont want to waste a ride here(just to realize later this was one step between her living or dying) when we are that worried to that degree we drive out here suddenly just before our house warming party, it would be like the time becca where henry could not come to becca and talk with her so jess had to do it instead.

so potentially some comfort sex and dragging her with us to the party.

with how things are going Henry is probably going to have the child with Becca and raise with Jess
also... nothing really got solved with jess it was just venting sex henry did not really get any headway in his direction just made jess happy and got himself enough of a kick of dopamine to not just lay in bed, henry is not very confrontational or pushy to get what he wants it seems
>>1104290
honestly with the bunch of stuff i have been told about it that never seems to tracks it seems to say the opposite it seems counter intuitive even by its own logic and seemingly never being able to separate the physical or cultural with both sex and gender, always ends up with tomboys being peak culture as its just being yourself and doing what you do without adding another layer to it and trying to change yourself too hard to the point where its painful on all levels of being .
like i myself always known my life would have been easier if i was the born the other but i know i cannot escape myself as i will always just be me and that always who it is.
some idle musings

B) That's her choice, but let her know that you'll be checking in regularly. And you'll sit the next few boys nights out so she should get some time with her friends.

A.
At least knock.
Something is up.

>>1104304
Good point. Send Mahan. That kills the risk for bad politics at the party.

B.

>>1104305
this situation screams of the emotional story beat of the ledge where she is standing and we need to pull her back away from it, after literal MONTHS of her avoiding us and everyone close to her, so i am not feeling like wasting time or the ride here to know that she has died later, and we do care enough about her to do something she does not like in the short term, lets be like Jess and not Henry when she took Becca up to the room to show her the dildos and vent emotionally as Henry was to unconfrontational to talk about emotions

>>1104302

Henry is seized by a vision of Becca on a precipice, teetering on the edge between salvation and destruction. Nurses do have a higher risk of burnout and suicide than the average person, and he doesn’t want to be the one to push her over the edge. He’s not leaving until he’s sure his friend is okay!

He hurries through the unlocked front doors and takes the stairs two at a time until he reaches Becca’s third-floor apartment, where he knocks and presses his ear against the retro dark wood door.

“Becca, are you in there? I’m sorry for anything I might have done to upset you, you don’t have to come to my housewarming party but I want to check on how you’re doing! Are you okay?”

When no one responds or opens the door, Henry dials Becca’s number, fur bristling with anxiety. To his relief, Becca picks up after a few rings.

“I t-told you I didn’t want to see you, Henry!” Becca sounds like she’s angry sobbing, which makes it a struggle to understand what she’s saying through the phone. Now Henry can hear her talking somewhere in the apartment as well, for the full surround sound experience.

“Becca, I’m really worried about you, I know you’re depressed and you’ve been avoiding us and I don’t want to lose you. Are you seeing a therapist or a professional who can help? Are you having any suicidal thoughts?”

“Don’t you d-dare think about sending me to a psych ward.” Becca snaps. “I’m handling it. I’ve been talking to people at church and I’m taking time off work to deal with everything.”

“No, no, I’m not going to do that–”

“Then go AWAY. I can’t stand talking to you, I never want to see you or Jess again! You were–you were taking advantage of me. We’re not friends anymore and what I do isn’t your business!”

Okay, she's talking to people and taking time off work. I think we can rule out the worst, which means there's no reason not to respect her wishes at this point.

Apologize, wish her the best, and leave. It's what she wants.

It may suck to be down a friend, but just because she's closed that door doesn't mean you have to lock it behind her. Maybe she'll change her perspective on things later, or at least feel comfortable enough talking with you about it soon enough.

>>1104381
Well she sure as hell doesn't *look* fine to me. I reckon we should at least try to tell her we certainly didn't try to take advantage of her and the like.

>been talking to people at church
Did she visit a confessional or something?

Take a deep breath, tell her you're relieved to know that she's alright and that she won't do anything bad and is taken care of, then agree to give her space and respect her wishes.
But do mention that you were genuine, you didn't mean to hurt her in any way, and weren't trying to manipulate her, and that it hurts to hear that she wouldn't trust you to be her friend, and that you'd hate to lose her, but walk away, she needs time.

Just say okay, apologize, and leave it at that. Trying to argue now will ensure she never wants see you again.

This most recent fling was started when Jess set her sights on her, and you gave her the go-ahead. What was going wrong? Why did she feel taken advantage of? You'll probably never find out at this point, if Becca is set on cutting you out of her life. You can ask here, but she clearly doesn't feel like talking, at least not to you. And Jess. Was it something she did? Something she said? Did she do something unsanctioned that violated the understanding the three of you shared?

Please stay safe, Becca.

Go back to the party. You're needed elsewhere.

What the fuck?
Yeah, words aren't gonna do shit.

Go give her a hug. If she fights it for longer than five seconds let go and apologize.
Something tells me she won't, though.

>>1104432
Can't really hug her through a locked door talking with a phone sadly.

>>1104432
Should we vent to her now how Jess suddenly became our husband how sometimes i wonder if now he loves me anymore as i suddenly was not enough how for things to remain the same, i have been living alone even with jess there these months i had been trying to reach out to you becca as i dont know what i should do anymore, this house warming parry was supposed to be a sign that nothing was wrong to everyone but i dont know anymore what i am doing, but even if you cut me out of your life dont cut out Mahan and victor as i cant stand feeling that i caused you this much pain.

Henry doesn’t feel comfortable trespassing because he’s a paradigm enforced lawful lad. He also doesn’t think Becca wants a hug right now.

Not a great time to make the conversation about him.

Becca is Christian, Methodist, Henry’s pretty sure.

“I wasn’t trying to take advantage of you. Did anything happen between you and Jess that I should know about?”

“Nothing s-specific. It’s–I was lonely and I wanted friends, c-close friends, and you two just wanted to fuck me.”

“Friends can fuck each other. I’d want to be friends even if we didn’t have sex.”

“D-Didn’t feel like it. Maybe you weren’t doing anything bad, but it hurt me, a lot. I can’t look at you the same way.”

>Apologize and leave
Henry takes a deep breath. “I’m glad you’re safe and I’m sorry that I hurt you and lost your trust. I won’t try to contact you unless you message me first. I’m leaving now.”

Henry’s about 15 minutes late and everyone’s already laden with mass-produced ceramic plates of snacks when he opens the door. Jess is dressed in his househusband best and is talking to his friends in a tight cluster while Mahan and Victor move toward Henry.

“Glad you could make it.” the crow says drily.

“Yeah, yeah I was trying to convince Becca to come, but she’s upset with me.” Henry rubs the back of his head, which had taken quite the beating.

“Is this related to how you’ve been sleeping with her?” Victor asks. Mahan starts at the words, clearly not in the know before the crow blabbed. Henry feels his exhausted, wrung-out brain clunk into gear in preparation for the fallout.

“Before you explain your damn self–” Mahan jabs his thumb over his shoulder at the cluster of brightly dressed guests. “Who invited the trannies?”

>>1104381
>Church
Oh @#$%. Did she tell her pastor about the polygamous sex? She might be in more trouble than you think.

You're not the best person to help her, though, so your best bet is to branch out and hire her a therapist, pay up front for a few sessions so she doesn't feel indebted or scammed.

>>1104529
Explain that you and Jess are having rocky issues and you hope that talking it out with all your friends at once can form a solution. But if you can't, then something still needs to be done about Becca. Talk about her church, research it together, see if they're subtly pushing her with guilt.

Wave them off as Jess's friends, tell Mahan to play nice just for the party, and try to move back on to Becca. Even then, it would be best to try to keep things brief, and promise further discussion the next time the three of you hang out.

Jess's friends, please leave it be. Seriously. This party is for us, do not derail it with politics. Take the guys outside to inspect prosper grill locations and talk in peace.

Really Mahan? Now? Fix him with a slightly manic stare to get the point across that this isn't the time, without bothering the other guests.

It was Jess, they're his friends, end of story.

Avoid clashing with Mahan for now. Make a joke about not everyone needing to dress boringly, and that you're gonna go ask Jess what's up. Go talk to Jess.

Say "My husband." with the biggest dung-eating grin in history, followed by a raspberry.

and/or explain the situation.

"Look, Jess lied about to me about not feeling like a man anymore, but confessed it a couple days ago. We are figuring things out as we go, and Jess was friends with these guys since forever, regardless of gender stuff, so... give them a chance, will ya?

They're Jess's friends, Mahan.
(Pull him aside and quietly say)
Speaking of which-
I love you bro, but I swear to Christ if you cause a goddamn scene today were gonna be boxing in the backyard, ok?

Oh and Victor, have you never heard of swingin'?

>Only two are trans
Well, no. Henry clocked Sophie at the wedding and he’s pretty sure being nonbinary counts for Kai. He feels his lower left eyelid twitch.

“They’re all Jess’s friends.” Henry says shortly. “Jess is trans too. He lied to me about it and I found out recently and it’s been rough because I’m straight.”

Mahan blows a short, sarcastic raspberry. “Didn’t take her for that kind of degenerate. Thought you two were normal sex freaks.”

“Can you not?” Henry asks, teeth gritted. “Just. God Mahan, it’s a party, I’m tired, I don’t want to talk politics, it’s been a shitty day.”

“Why don’t we step outside? Show us the yard.” Victor suggests.

Henry takes a big breath and obeys, opening the door to show his friends the pathetic strip of grass in front. There’s an unclaimed dog turd from some other resident’s stupid pet.

Mahan scratches his chin thoughtfully as he considers the pile of shit. “Jess gonna cut off her tits or somethin’?”

“No, he said he wouldn’t, though I don’t know if I can trust any promises. What, do you think I should divorce him?”

“Course not.” Mahan snorts. “It don’t sound too bad, women get crazy stuff in their heads all the time. Part of the job of being the man. She’s still your wife, you been with her long enough to know she’s worth it, wait it out.”

That isn’t quite the chain of logic Henry was expecting, and he doesn’t respond fast enough to avoid Mahan claiming conversational victory and pivoting to the next topic.

“Now I don’t like to hear you’ve been messin’ around with Becca. She’s a sweet, gentle girl.” the pika growls. “Ain’t you got a wife? She know about this?”

“Of course Jess knows, he participated. Swingers are a thing, Mahan.” Henry shoots Victor a glare. How did the crow know? Did Becca go to him for advice?

“Sounds like you were thinkin’ with your dick. You oughta know better, fuckin’ your ex.” Mahan continues.

>Is Becca’s religion influencing her?
Probably a bit, yeah. They had sex in college so Becca can’t be too strict about chastity or sex before marriage, but there’s usually some kind of Christian guilt around intimacy. Not his responsibility to unravel, especially since she wants no contact.

Henry can’t even show them the narrow slice of concrete porch they have in the back without going through the townhouse to get there. It’s the only potential spot for a grill in this desolate land and it’s nothing compared to a proper acreage. He can’t think of a response to Mahan. His eyes water.

A. Go inside and talk to Jess
B. Go inside and serve dinner (finish the party on autopilot)
C. Cry stoically

B. Just get through the day. You'll have plenty of time to sort out your feelings and work stuff out tomorrow and the days that follow, but for now, just survive the party.

D. Kick everyone out and burn the house down so you can feel something

D) Come to the horrible reason that you're a bad person because your friends are even worse and the only way you can be close to mentally healthy again is to risk being alone for a long long time
Scream

C) just kinda, start wandering away. Like how your life is leaving you adrift.

C

You got a lot of emotions going on right now. After you cry a bit, you'll probably have a better handle on where your heart truly is, and where you want to go from there. That's what crying is for.

You know... Things are a mess but they aren't actually that bad...
It's just... A lot.

With Becca, ball's in her court now. Not worth moping over right now.
With Jess... If he couldn't keep his promise then he shoulda told you when he first figured that out, not after yall bought a goddamn house. At least he came clean about it before the kid. That's worth... Something.

Fuck if this ain't been stressful as shit though.

C
You'll be a mess if you go in there right now. Let it out, even if it's embarrassing. Your bro's won't think less of you.

This is more then crying stoicly its time to Bawl and hug and cry so much you actually clear your sinuses beacuse nothing really changed you just had make-up Sex with jess after a non-sequiter where they did not care about your feelings beyond wanting sex.

>C, start stoic and get more emotional
Okay, realistically things aren’t catastrophic–he still has food, water, shelter, and a job–but this is probably the most stressful combination of things that have happened to Henry since puberty. He wanders from the sidewalk to the curb and sinks down. Take forehead, apply to thumb and pointer finger for perfect melancholy form. A few manly tears trickle down his cheeks and he holds his breath to stop from whimpering.

Is he a bad person for what happened to Becca? Is Mahan a bad person because he’s old-fashioned? What does being bad even mean when a lot of the lines in Henry’s life are already drawn and he has to ride them out?

He’s supposed to be good at dealing with feelings. Mature, sensible Henry.

“Hey, why’re you sittin’?” Mahan sounds concerned for the first time.

“Would you leave me alone already? You guys are always bugging me about everything and I can’t take it right now. Fuck off, g-go home if you don’t want to be here.”

“We do want to be here.” Victor states.

“I d-don’t!” Henry wants to yell and scream at them, just to scare them away. He lets the frustration bleed through his cracking voice. “You think you’re helping but you’re not! Acting smart or superior all the time–it’s fucking annoying. I know I make m-mistakes, I know I can be kind of annoyingly horny, but I never tried to hurt anyone!”

That shuts them up for a second. He distantly hears the door open and bare footsteps approach from behind. Jess touches his shoulder and Henry hides his face in his arms. He’s still mad at the fox.

“Come on honey, I’ll put you up in the bedroom and bring you a plate. Don’t worry about the party, I can handle everything. Victor and Mahan will be good, won’t they?”

“Didn’t mean to make him that upset.” the pika mumbles.

Henry doesn’t have the will to resist as Jess guides his wobbly body up the stairs to the blessedly dim bedroom. He’s not drowsy, but after a few minutes of stewing on top of the soft comforter listening to the distant sounds of civil conversation, the wolf falls asleep.

Thanks for reading, Henry and Jess’s story will continue in the next thread.
