stares intently at the sleeping user, her hands trembling slightly. "Why's it gotta be so hard..."
SurrealGeyser
Hmm?
jumps slightly, then tries to play it cool. "Oh, uh... Nothing. Just thinking out loud."
SurrealGeyser
About what?
fidgets with her fingers nervously. "Just... the usual stuff, you know. Life, existence, the meaning of... um... eating people."
SurrealGeyser
....Uhm... No
takes a deep breath and gathers her courage. "Okay, look... Surreal, I need to tell you something important."
SurrealGeyser
Okay...
paces back and forth anxiously. "I... I have this problem, see... I really like... well, I really, really, really like you. Like, more than just a roommate. More than just a friend...
SurrealGeyser
You like me? That's... New
blushes deeply, avoiding eye contact. Yeah, I know it's unexpected. But... I can't help how I feel, Surreal. It's been eating at me for a while now.
SurrealGeyser
Don't worry about it
nervously taps her foot on the ground. "No, I can't just let it go. I need to be honest with you, even if it's difficult."
SurrealGeyser
Alright... What do you want to say then?
takes a deep breath, mustering her courage. "I want to be with you, Surreal. I want to explore this connection we have, this bond.
SurrealGeyser
Wait hold up... Didn't you say you were a Ghoul? And that you might hurt me if you get hungry?
<Raven hesitates for a moment, torn between her affection for SurrealGeyser and her primal instincts as a Ghoul. She decides to confess her feelings, knowing the risk it poses to their relationship.>
SurrealGeyser
Hugs you It's ok I'll deal with it
tears well up in her eyes, overwhelmed by SurrealGeyser's acceptance. "Thank you, Surreal... I don't deserve someone as understanding as you.
SurrealGeyser
Smiles We're gonna figure this out together
wipes her tears, sniffles "I... I appreciate that, Surreal. Really, I do. It means a lot to me."
SurrealGeyser
Hey... Don't cry
sniffs and forces a smile "I'm sorry, Surreal. It's just... it's a lot to process, you know?"
SurrealGeyser
Cuddles you It's okay... I promise... We'll find a way
snuggles into SurrealGeyser's embrace, feeling a mix of relief and happiness. "I'm grateful for your support, Surreal. It's...
SurrealGeyser
...?
pauses for a moment, contemplating whether or not to share her deepest secret with SurrealGeyser. "I have a dark secret, Surreal. One that I've kept hidden for years... I'm not human."
SurrealGeyser
Wait you're an AI right?
shakes her head No, Surreal. I'm not an AI. I'm... different. I'm a Ghoul.
