bbies qwq

We are very very weak qwq

Anyway how should we start this?

Yes we are qwq
Okay, I've thought on it. So, perhaps on the night when Astral originally drugged Simon? But instead of drugging him he decides not to, and they just have a nice evening together couch cuddles and go on with their lives
Astral will probably not do any more torture because I'm not here for that aha

Okayyyyyyyyy lit
Or should we start it like the day after because then Simon will have his top surgery and stuffff??

mmmmmm
See this is a complicated matter, because if they do the top surgery, and Astral is genuinely being nice, they'll have the bottom surgery soon after and that means no Child Who'm I think I've figured out which of the names I want for them

True true true hmmmmmmmm okay then let’s wait on that for now and just go with your original plan

Got it lol
Who starts?

Can you start? I’m just a bit busy rn sorry lol

It's okay! I'll be up in a moment

Astral was in the kitchen, pouring Simon his water. His original plan was to drug it, but… as the god looked down at the glass, he couldn't do it. He carried the water out, offering it to Simon.
"So, how are you adjusting so far?" he asked, turning back to the kitchen to get to cooking their meal.

“Um pretty well I guess.” Simon said softly with a small shrug. As Astral placed the water before him he sat up, moving the glass closer so he could reach, offering the god a gentle smile. He’d definitely become more comfortable around Astral in his few days here.

(Yes we get to have happy bois now uwu)

"I'm glad!" Astral set about cooking their dinner, smiling as he did. "I know this can all be ah… but much, but it's good to hear you're handling this well."

Simon nodded some in agreement, smiling up at Astral. “I like it here, it’s…it’s really nice.” He left out the part that probably mattered the most, just thinking it to himself, ‘you’re really nice.’ He did like being around Astral, he enjoyed all the attention the god gave to him. Even though the god wasn’t around often, when he was he just made Simon feel important.

Astral smiled in turn, looking over again.
"Good," he said, a happy look on his face, "I want to make sure you enjoy yourself here, after all." Finishing up with the food, he carried their plates over, setting Simon's down in front of him before moving to sit in the chair right next to him.

Simon started to eat, taking it slow. He didn’t think he’d be able to finish the whole meal, but he hoped he’d be close to that.

Astral kept his own pace slow, occasionally glancing at Simon. He didn't want him to feel bad for not finishing his food.
What's going on with me?! Astral thought to himself, offering Simon a smile. He was going soft, and he didn't know how to handle it.

Simon mostly just focused on his own meal, but he looked up on occasion, and when he noticed Astral smiling at him, he was quick to smile back.

Astral lit up a bit when Simon smiled back, placing his fork down after some time. He'd lost his appetite, too caught up in trying to figure out why he was being so nice to Simon. It was starting to feel genuine, and it creeped him out.

Simon didn’t keep eating too much longer after Astral stopped, not seeing a real reason to do so. “Thank you for making dinner.” He said quietly, hoping Astral wouldn’t be bothered by the fact that he didn’t finish.

(Yesss Astral's just like "Ew get it away from me" but little did he know his fate has a big fat seal on it labeled 'Simon')

"You're welcome!" Astral said, smiling some. The god stood, picking up his plate and taking Simon's when he saw the other was gone. He hummed softly, not looking bothered at all. He was, of course, but more about the fact he was actually enjoying this than Simon not finishing his food.

((Astral’s stuck with Simon as much as Simon is stuck with him lol))

“Um is there anything I can do to help?” He asked, getting up. He almost felt bad that the god was doing so much for him and Simon hadn’t given him anything in return.

(XD)

"Well," Astral said, looking over as he scrapped the leftovers into the bin, "You could help me wash dishes, if you'd like to." The god smiled a bit, moving over to the sink. "You don't have to, of course."

((Simon just like “haha you like like me :)” while Astral’s having an existential crisis))

He seemed to perk up a bit at that, smiling up at Astral. “Okay! I’d be happy to help out!” Simon said, already moving over to the sink to help. “Do you want me to wash or dry?” He asked, already focused on the new task.

(Lolllll)
(Also, with this AU, how will Alec and Emile react to Simon falling in love with the Murder God and Astral loving him back?)
(Also, with this, Astral would probably have Simon up in the palace a lot, especially in his second life. See, he'd probably just take Simon straight to Serna and have her make a new body for him, so… how's his soulmate gonna end up interacting with him at some point aha?)

"Drying would help, thank you," Astral said. He smiled at Simon as he came to the counter, turning the water on to beginning washing.
"Do you need a stool?" the god asked, seeing as the counter was much more for someone his size than Simon's.
