[DIGITAL_HORROR]: ok, so i went to go talk to my friends and uh...some stuff happened
[DIGITAL_HORROR]: it was kind of a big personal drama so i asked both friends involved if they were cool with me sharing and they said yes so
[DIGITAL_HORROR]: let's get this started
[DIGITAL_HORROR]: so youve already seen wiggles, mocha is the other most active friend here and both of them were awake for me to talk to today
[DIGITAL_HORROR]:

[DIGITAL_HORROR]: she's just as silly as wiggles and the two of them were...pretty neutral with each other, as far as i could tell. they'd talk every so often but it'd be small talk, at least as close to it as these guys' vocab can get
[DIGITAL_HORROR]: but today, before i could even ask them about the stuff we talked about here, i noticed mocha was all scared of wiggles.

RAGS: hey buddy, do you know what's going on with mocha?
Wiggles: no
Wiggles: wont talk
Wiggles: confused
RAGS: yeah, i'm confused too
RAGS: maybe the two of you could try talking together? i know you said she won't, but i don't want her to be scared of you...
Wiggles: can try
[DIGITAL_HORROR]: so the two of them got situated and were really quiet at first, not saying much of anything.
[DIGITAL_HORROR]: i kept an eye out, and kept mostly quiet...

Wiggles: maybe
Mocha: i would like to be a friend...
Mocha: ...strange feelings.

Mocha: yes...

[DIGITAL_HORROR]: i've just left wiggles and mocha to hang out with each other now, and i'm keeping an eye on them, but this is a lot of info already.
[DIGITAL_HORROR]: i have some hunches, but...i'm not sure if they're just me reading into things too much.
