Radier's POV a few weeks later
"Bad Uncle Horror! Not again!"I snap
"I got lost in my head again..."He sighs
I hug him close to me.
"You don't have to keep worrying, Uncle Horror. We're here. Shut those bad thoughts out."I say, healing his skull again
This time he wandered out to the middle of a corn field, only getting found by me after he tripped over a twig and was heard groaning.
"Right, right...."He says, shaking his head.
"You had Uncles very worried with your disappearance. It's the middle of the night!"I say
"Isn't it past your bedtime then?"He asks
"Don't change the subject! Dad is helping look for you and I came to help! Daddy is already in a meeting to form parties!"I say
"Oh jeez...Didn't mean to set this much off."He says
"Our family doesn't take risks. We love you."I say
He sighs, shaking his head and holding his belly. I lean against him, my tentacles wrapping around him to provide some comfort.
"Wanna talk?"I ask him
I honestly want to know what's bothering him so much and help him. It's getting me worried about him.
"*sigh* Listen, Radier, I wasn't always the best person to be around. I've done some pretty bad things or been around bad things, thinking horrible things. Sorry but-"
"I know. Nobody's perfect."I say
He looks at me in surprise.
"You are accepting of this with full awareness? I've tried to keep that side of me away from you."He says
"I have a chaotic uncle named Killer of all things, have another uncle that talks to an uncle I cannot see and you have a broken skull. It's kind of hard to think that my family is flawless or has had a perfect life."I say
"Okay, good points...Well, then you can understand that things were tough before I became a part of our family. My world wasn't the safest, very twisted and I both went through and did terrible things. It was mainly just survival and it's caused some really bad habits. My eating habits, paranoia, and the list goes on. Farm and our family have really helped improve things, but it still lingers. After so long of being in an environment where it's just trouble, it's hard not to be concerned about when the good times will end. Plus I think at times that where I go trouble follows so I guess that's the hole my mind has been going down. I especially don't want my bad habits to harm Solros or my ability to raise him."He explains, venting to me.
I hug him tighter.
"You take very good care of me and our family. I think you're great and you don't need to worry since you haven't given those habits power before so I don't think you start now. You are not alone in handling this. It is ok."I say
He smiles.
"Right...I guess that's true."He says
"You forget how good the things you do are."I say
He nods.
"HeY rAdiEr! HaVe yOu hAd aNy lUcK?"I hear Dad shout
"Yep! Found him! We were just talking!"I say
Then I see a strange glow starting to surround us. Dad appears beside us, cleaning his glasses. He takes out his phone with a smile.
"GoOd. I wiLl tElL NiGhTy t0 cAnCeL tHe sEaRch sQuAdS."He says, followed by his phone ringing.
