[The following post has been filtered from un:bearly.bewitched AKA Elleru for obvious reasons:]

been living with a roommate for a little over ½ year and shes great and beautiful and makes food sometimes and says really nice things but just not entirely sure what she wants yet
sometimes all she wants to do is hang out in bed and sings to me while brushing my hair and it felt nice but no ones ever done that kind of thing before so not sure what to make of it

tho a couple months ago she said things like she has "wanted more than friendship" and "if you want to be with me you need only say so" but does that mean what it sounds like or is it reading too much into the situation??

asked to take it slow didnt know what else to say in case it was wrong
mind you she was naked when she said some of these things
but we were in the spa so ofc she was naked this is relevant

anyway

cant tell if shes pissed now bc recently started noticing things like a rat stuck in the drawer and someone definitely put it in there on purpose
the cat sure as hell wouldnt do something like that hed probably just eat it on the spot

[At least Rey doesn't get squeamish, so she was able to just let the poor critter go in the garden level WHERE IT BELONGS because what the hell, Elleru.]

today theres this big ass dead animal on the front door of our room
dont see her around but pretty sure it was her bc theres a paper flower left next to it that she usually makes so unless one of you fuckers out there fess up to playing games its probably her

at any rate is this a threat??? made a mistake?? she isnt human so maybe its possible to have just interpreted her signals the wrong way? or maybe shes mad about being asked to take whatever we have going on slow??

any advice is appreciate

[Sorry, Anchor. You're dealing with the most Useless Lesbian ever.]

I think, then, that you have answered your own question.

[circumitus]

[...]

what???

[She did?]

[abheirrant]

If she is the sort of person who finds lying to be detestable, and she was forward enough to discuss her intentions with you, then why would she not do the same were she upset?

[circumitus]

THEN WHAT DOES THIS CORPSE MEAN.

[Oops accidental capslock. Or is it?]

[abheirrant]

[That is a good question, even if Rey is a completely and utterly Useless Lesbian.]

She's not human, correct? Perhaps it is a cultural ritual. Or something as simple as her trying to impress you. You're a warrior, are you not?

[circumitus]

what ritual you mean like offering cows or pelts as gifts or whatever shit people used to do??

guess warrior is a good enough description from someone like her

[abheirrant]

Well, if she perceives you as a warrior or a fighter, then perhaps she is trying to impress you in a way she thinks you'd find appropriate.

[Maimed bodies and all.]

[circumitus]

ok yeah that sounds on brand for her to be hnest

[Good to know she's not being threatened or fucked up again, though.]

[abheirrant]

Here is a consideration: why not simply ask her why it is she left you such a gift?

[circumitus]

maybe ebcause it might be some cultural thing that someones heard of and itd be an insult to ask??

seemed like a good idea to get a second opinion at the time

[abheirrant]

Well, you have it now. If you ask me, it sounds like something an animal would do, akin to the courtship of the kitten-kind of my world. They provide a kill to prove their sincerity to their intended.

Your roommate is not a kitten-kind, is she?

[circumitus]

what

what does "kittenkind" mean?

[abheirrant]

They're a people where I come from. Does your roommate look like a cat that stood up on its hind legs? Does she prize her pants as a symbol of her social standing?

[circumitus]

[uh]

not rly??

more birdlike than cat
tho she does stand upright sometimes and guess shes pretty high status where shes frm

dnt know if that even helps

[abheirrant]

The woman who is interested in you romantically is a bird.

[That's all he got from that text.]

[circumitus]

what

NO

said shes bird-LIKE
as in she is sometimes a bird thing but most of the time she looks like a regular walking person like most people here

[abheirrant]

[Today in "Descriptions that Do Not Help at All," that.]

She's a shapeshifter, then? Or is it some form of bodily transfiguration?
