If I’ve followed the story closely enough and emotional intimacy is the real taboo, it’s hard for me to put myself in Holly’s shoes. Despite Holly being the one to say he didn’t want more than sex, he didn’t seem very comfortable with his test date or with Verbena and he obviously loves ivy. I can imagine being confused about how I feel in this situation. Even if he’s not feeling jealous, he could be unsure about what to do. It’s gone so well so far, so I’m hopeful. If he can’t handle it right now, I think that would be okay too. Ivy and Aster have been so gentle and understanding and it all seem completely plausible for people to relate that way on earth.
That has to be a special kind of love for Aster to pull her shoe off her most likely sweaty, possibly stinky foot (she has been running around all day and said she was exhausted and she didn’t shower in the meantime) and want to touch it and look THIS affectionately at her.
I’d probably insist on her washing her feet before I touch them after a long day of her being on her feet all the time…
Uh oh. Holly.
My thoughts exactly

[*voice of George Takei*] Oh, *MYYYYY!!!

I hope she remembered Holly
The lady has two feet Holly, better get in there
heh, last time I checked Holly was in the “handholding acceptable under certain circumstances” phase of cooties.
so… doubt.
I simply LOVE how you phrased this ??
The conflicting feelings of “Oooo, spicy!” and “Wait, what about Holly?” are intense here. X_x;
Where can I get an Aster? I need like two in my life.
