[ Oh no, his throat's going all tight again and his vision is getting all blurry; Cisco is way too used to being the one saying affectionate encouraging things. It's weird, being the one they're being said to.

And Lup seems to know just what to say to cut right to the bone, in a good way. Does she really think that? That everyone likes him? But... when he thinks about it, there are so many people here who he considers friends. Who have been kind, and helpful, and welcoming to him. Maybe she's right. Maybe people could see that he was just being true to himself, somehow. ]

I'm really really happy we're friends, too. Even if you're totally making me cry right now.

[ He swipes quickly at the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, laughing softly at himself, and Lup, and the whole situation. ]

Thank you. Like... a lot.

[ Here's hoping Lup doesn't mind an impulsive hug - it is quick, but tight and heartfelt. ]

Are you really gonna flick my ear? Is that a thing people do?

[Damn, he's so adorable and emotional. It aches a little inside her to know that Cisco doesn't seem to see himself in her light, but she was more than willing to help him realize it.

Then she's being hugged, and Lup is definitely more okay with random hugging than Taako, returning it freely with a little laugh.

Nothing to thank for, my dude... but you're welcome.

[If he felt like thanking her, she was not going to deny him. It would be dismissing his feelings, after all. This was a friendship, though, not her being nice and polite or anything. Lup really enjoyed Cisco's company and everything.

...then he asks about the ear thing and she laughs again.]

Well, it is for elves! Look at these babies! [She reaches up her hands to wiggles her ears a bit.]

Sure as fuck keeps little elflings in line, but I've gotta make do with your roundies.

[franciscoramon]

Roundies?!

[ But Cisco is laughing, holding his hair out of the way and feeling at his own ear. He can see how ear-flicking would be more common for elves, where they present a much bigger target. ]

Your ears are so cool, by the way. I never know if that's a weird thing to say but they totally are.

[umbrastaff]

They are super round, you gotta admit that. Like, it's cute and all but so tiny!

[She makes a little curved gesture with her fingers, and then points at her own ears.]

...and of course they fucking are, they're my ears!

[She wiggles them a little bit for his amusement.]
