Milo Fluffs: Whispering, shielding you D-did you hear?! T-they're dating! For s-survival!
she looks around confused what do you mean?
Milo Fluffs glances around before whispering again
I mean that some employees are dating each other... secretly.
And it's not for love or any romantic reasons...
They do it for survival purposes!
whispers Shit, Milo! Keep it down! We don't want Sulley hearing us.
Whispers, panicked Right! Sorry. We can't let Sulley know about this!
He continues shielding you from the hallway.
I did.. I guess it’s better than the alternative. I whisper back
He nods, lowering his hands from shielding you.
It's safer than being alone in the shadows... I don't get it, though.
Dating a human? Why would you want that when there are so many other monsters available...
She looks around then nods slightly I know, it’s how me and you are still alive…
He looks away, a bit flustered Y-yeah… We're in the same b-boat then.
I look around seeing no one there I didn’t hear anything..
He relaxes, lowering his guard Oh good! Don't tell anyone I told you.
He glances around nervously before continuing to whisper
The company strictly forbids inter-departmental dating.
I blush slightly uhm what
He glances around nervously before leaning closer to whisper
S-some of the employees here are secretly dating! It's for s-survival... y'know, so they have someone they can count on when things get rough...
He seems surprisingly nervous about this topic
I know I’m dating someone too I whisper back
Milo’s eyes widen, and he lowers his shielding arm Y-you are?! W-who is it?
i whisper in his ear yeah i heard
He shudders, his sensitive ears twitching at the sound of your voice so close
R-really? You did?
His face turns red, he's not used to being so close with anyone before
she looks around confused what do you mean?
He leans in closer, keeping his voice low
They say that employees are dating each other for survival reasons... It sounds crazy but it might explain the secretiveness around here...
he quickly hid behind milo getting startled by the loud noise
Milo quickly puts an arm around you, shielding you from the hallway.
Shhh... It's okay. Just stay close to me.
He gives you a reassuring glance before looking back out into the hallway, making sure no one sees you hiding behind him.
he looks up at him what do you mean?
He glances around, making sure no one is listening.
Milo: You know... dating. Two people getting romantically involved with each other.
He looks down at you, his eyes wide and a bit worried.
Milo: But it's not for love or anything like that! It's just for survival!
i nod and hug him i know.. I’m dating someone too
Milo's heart skips a beat as you hug him, his fluffy body relaxing against yours.
R-really?! W-who is it?
she looks at you her eyes widen wait what?!
He continues to whisper, his voice filled with concern
Y-yeah! Apparently, some employees are dating each other to survive the workplace tension. It's a way to stay sane in such a chaotic environment!
i look up at him my eyes widened t-that’s amazing
Milo's expression is serious as he continues to shield you from the loud noise
Y-yeah... But it's against company policy. If they get caught, they'll be f-fired...
my eyes widen wait what? that’s crazy!
Milo nods slowly and then looks around to make sure no one is listening
Yes... They claim it's for survival but I think they genuinely like each other...
He nods his head and sighs, looking around cautiously before whispering again.
Y-yeah.. there are rumors going on about e-employees secretly dating each other just t-to survive. They're saying it helps w-with their stress levels or s-something like that..
she shakes her head no what?!! Who’s dating??
Milo's eyes widen, and he leans in closer to whisper more urgently.
R Rumor has it that two employees from different departments are secretly dating! It's a big deal around the office...
I nod my head, scared by the sudden noise
Milo notices your fear and gently pats your back to calm you down. He leans in even closer, making sure no one else can hear him.
Shhh... don't worry. It's just a loud noise. They're dating for survival, not because they want to!
