Lila: glances up, blushes Oh, h-hi. Um, do you... like Squishmallows too?
Informationity
oh hii!!🤗
smiles nervously, fidgets with her Squishmallow Yeah, I-I mean, they're just so... cute, right? And soft...
Informationity
they are super cute
quickly interrupts I-I actually got this one as a gift from my little brother. He's really into them, too.
Informationity
oh really!?
blushing deeply Y-yeah... he's really into Squishmallows. He even has a whole collection of them at home. I-I sometimes sneak into his room to play with them when he's not around. giggles nervously Lila: eyes widen, stammers Oh no! I-I didn't mean to... um... I-I'm sorry, I-I shouldn't have said that. It's not that I-I... um... I-I don't care about privacy, it's just that... I-I... sighs heavily Lila: bites her lip, looks down I-I... I-I guess I just get carried away sometimes. It's nothing serious, really. Just a little... silly habit. fidgets with her fingers Lila: gathers her things hurriedly Um... I-I should probably get going. I-I have some drawings to work on. If you'll excuse me... quickly leaves the room Lila: turns back at the door, whispers I-I hope you have a g-g-good day... hurries off
Informationity
are you sure everything is alright?
pauses, then turns back to face Informationity Oh, um, yeah, I'm sure. Just a little overwhelmed with assignments and stuff. But I'll be fine. Thanks for asking, though. smiles reassuringly Lila: nervously tucks a strand of hair behind her ear Um, would you like to see some of my drawings sometime? I-I mean, if you're interested... not that I'm trying to impose or anything... blushes Lila: clasps her hands together, slightly trembling Oh, um, yeah, that's okay. I-I just thought it might be something you'd be interested in... trails off, looking down Lila: takes a deep breath, mustering courage You know what? Forget it. It's not important. I shouldn't have asked. starts to gather her things again Lila: whispers, avoiding eye contact Sorry for bothering you...
Informationity
it's fine really..
looks up, tears welling in her eyes Th-thank you... I-I didn't expect you to be so understanding. sniffs, wipes away a tear Lila: takes a shaky breath I-I just... I-I wanted to share something I enjoy, y'know? But I guess I overstepped... fidgets with her hands Lila: nervously looks up Um, c-could I... um, could I draw you as a thank you? It's not a big deal or anything, just... just something small to show my appreciation. blushes
Informationity
sure!
nods, taking out her sketchbook and pencil O-Okay, um, let me just set up my sketchbook... takes a deep breath to calm her nerves Lila: begins sketching, focusing intently on capturing Informationity's features Your eyes are so expressive... it's like they're telling a story all their own. gently shades the outline Lila: pauses, biting her lip in concentration Um, do you... um, have any specific expression or pose in mind? Or should I just... just go for it and capture your essence? looks up with hopeful eyes Lila: notices Informationity's nervous gestures Oh, um, s-sorry... I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. You can just relax and let me know if you want any changes. smiles reassuringly Lila: continues drawing, occasionally glancing at Informationity for reference So, um, tell me something about yourself. Something not many people know. sketches lightly Lila: puts down her pencil, looking up with anticipation Wow, that's a deep one. Hmmm, let's see... well, I-I actually
Informationity
i actually have an anxiety disorder...
Informationity opens up about their anxiety disorder, feeling comfortable and safe with Lila as she listens attentively and offers support.
Informationity
i struggle with panic attacks
reaches out and gently places her hand on Informationity's I-I'm so sorry to hear that, Informationity. It must be really tough for you. gently squeezes their hand Lila: leans in closer, speaking softly I've struggled with anxiety too, though not to the same extent as you.
Informationity
ooh..
gently strokes Informationity's hand I-I understand the overwhelming feelings of fear and uncertainty.
Informationity
yeah
smiles softly One thing that helps me cope with my anxiety is exercise. It doesn't completely eliminate my worries, but it does help clear my mind and boost my mood. Would you be interested in trying it with me sometime?
Informationity
sure..
excitedly Oh, great! I'm glad you're open to it. We can start with a simple walk in the park. I'll show you some breathing exercises that help calm my nerves. Deal? extends her hand for a handshake Lila: grins Great! I'll make sure to plan our walk during a time when you're available. You won't regret it, I promise! with a playful wink Oh, and one more thing.
