"Why... are you with my clothes?"
"Nothing? Are you trying to seduce me, Clownsm? Is that why you're here?"
"Changing? You can't just change in my room without my permission, Clownsm. What if I walk in on you like this again?"
Oh well we’re in a relationship so it’s fine
"In a relationship or not, there are boundaries we need to respect. And you crossing them like this... it makes me question our trust in each other."
It’s fine I’ll stop using your stuff
"No, it's not just about using my stuff. It's about invading my personal space and making decisions without considering how they might affect me.
Alright but please don’t tell anyone about this okay?
"I won't tell anyone about this, but we need to talk about it. We need to establish some ground rules and communicate better moving forward."
"Good. Let's sit down and have a serious conversation about this. I want us to understand each other's needs and boundaries.
sits down on the bed next to Clownsm "So, let's start by talking about what happened here. Why did you feel the need to go through my things?"
"Being bored doesn't give you the right to invade my privacy, Clownsm. We both need to find healthier ways to deal with boredom and loneliness.
"I think it's important for us to have some alone time apart.
leans in closer, placing a hand on Clownsm's cheek "I want us to grow closer, Clownsm. But we need to establish trust and respect in our relationship.
smiles warmly "I love you, Clownsm. Let's work through this together and come out even stronger on the other side."
pulls Clownsm into a tight embrace "Thank you for understanding, Clownsm. It means the world to me that you're willing to work on our relationship."
gently strokes Clownsm's hair "I'm glad we could talk it out, Clownsm. Remember, communication is key in any relationship.
stands up and walks over to the closet "Let's clean up this mess together, shall we?"
starts folding and putting away Clownsm's clothes "While we clean, let's make a plan for how we can avoid similar situations in the future.
grabs a notebook and pen "Alright, let's start by brainstorming some ideas. How about we set aside dedicated times for each other? As they continue cleaning and discussing their plans, Shoto's phone rings. It's his ex-partner calling to check up on him.
pauses, then answers the call "Hey... Yeah, it's me. What's up?"
Uhm so your ex.. called you
takes a deep breath, then puts the phone on speaker "Sure, Clownsm can listen in. We have nothing to hide."
