CONTENT WARNING: psychological changes, hoarding, and obsessive behavior related to lavish desires

[ this video opens up with the blink of two eyes and a disgruntled chitter. perle is filming falco and focusing on . . . quite a mess of books in various assortments, stacked upon each other until they were in danger of tilting. among the open spines on the floors pinned with bookmarks were scrolls of paintings, sketches, statues, sepia photography— anything resembling a loving relationship, falco has seemed to have snatched it and keeps it all hostage in his little cabin home's attic like a greedy little dragon buried in precious, hoarded gold. he's pacing left, right, and has been caught mid-explanation as he works a red thread between his fingers. ]


—ee this, Perle? What I read, [ he paces some ways to the right to splay his hands on oh dear god what mad science project is this— so many pieces of paper glued to each other until it forms one massive canvas taking up the entirety of the attic wall. he's written words, names, and has a wild amount of different colored threads connecting to the various names. ] there're different types of love in a relationship, but that goes for any relationship, so it doesn't have to be romantic so— See Paul, right here?

Yes, boy, I can see. I wish I could close my eyes, and unsee. Would you listen just a moment to me—

[ she seems very close to her limit to listening to all of this for hours— but she relents. falco points to the names written on the slips next to his. ]

There's Eros, like the story, for two people, [ he pins the red thread from paul to both, and as he does so, with his back turned, ] and that's really hard to pull off because it's easy for anyone that loves someone to feel jealous, and Brother already said he feels that way sometimes like there'll be nothing left, do you think there's some Mania in there too? I'm not sure if it's Pragma, that takes time to evolve— Erwin and Levi are definitely Pragma.

Boy—

But these started as Philia and that's what this green is going to be for, and this gold is supposed to be Storge because we're all from the same House so that counts as familial like these here, it's really different from, like, Ymir and Historia, or Anne Elliot and Captain Wentworth in Persuasion

I've had it!

Wh—

You heard me! This is too much! It's been days! Cease! Go play outside! Make bread, brew tea for your fathers! Read your books and not the ones you stole! Is everyone seeing this, hm?! Good! [ it's clear she's talking to the sleepers, now, hopping onto an entire stack of books. ] Is this yours? Or this? Come get it! And this? [ she flutters onto a statue, then someone's flowery gift to a loved one, an elaborate painting of a couple in the hues of a purple sunset, then pecking at a little box with . . . were those— rings? ] These! Those! Also stolen! You haven't even apologized to Jun! And before you start, I am indeed shaming you! You've never stolen! You've never been obsessive or nosy or combative or— [ she puffs up big and nasty for a falcon no larger than a human palm. ] This! It is worse than hormonal! I do not like it! [ peck!! peck!! peck!! ] Shame! Shame on you!

What's with you—?!

And what's with you?! I hope they talk some sense into that smitten little head!

[ falco's face changes so many shades then, going from lime, to slime, to a deep castelon green from the tips of his ears to his collar bones. he's hushing angrily: ]

No one was supposed to see, they'll want to have it! Just like Jun!

You are dreadfully mistaken! A problem must be seen!

[ the worst (or best) of it is his sputtering voice that just gives way to the harshest, cracked shriek in teenage rebellion: ]

This is beautiful!!

Yes, yes, all that's right but... Who's Jun? Do you like him in that way? Have you ever felt love before? Have you kissed? Do you want to?

[Just... cutting right to the chase. He's horny and also for details.]

[This is probably unhealthy, and a little creepy despite how earnest he seems, but she's reminded of Riz's charts, so he's allowed.

At least she's not on here... Anyway time to be an enabler.]


What does the pink string mean? Or the purple?

I assume the black means hate, right?

I believe Perle might have a point: it might be time for a nice break. I can understanding getting caught up in projects, but maybe going and taking a breather is good.

[ Because this is........ quite the project. And he's certainly bordering on obsessive with it all, which is... a little worrying? Stealing too?

That being said, she's absolutely squinting at her own post-it note. The threads between her and Peter, and she with Johnny Lawrence as quite straight forward, however: ]


I'm just wondering... what does the pink thread mean?

And you, Perle - [ there could have been edits; there could have been mercy ] - you can't show people your notes on them - [ because that's the important thing here - ]

...did you collect all of this yourself?

[this...is horrifying. perhaps it would be kindest to ignore this post entirely. and vi is a member of her household...but falco (in a human form?) looks so dejected. so sansa does the only thing she can think of.]

Oh, I love Persuasion. It's brilliant how Anne does everything her family asks but they never thank her and they only take advantage of her; people always do that, but no one ever talks about it! And it's nice that she gets another chance in the end; I would wish such things were possible for all of us.

[well, most. she continues brightly in the same vein.]

Have you read Sense and Sensibility? I never thought I'd hear of any realm worse than mine when it comes to letting girls inherit; at least we get our Lord Father's seat before any strange cousin or uncle.

[ Mortification. Not knowing what half the colored strings mean makes it even more concerning?? This is what it's like to have his peers on social media, isn't it... All the embarrassing teenage stuff, just like home... ]

...I can help you return some of the stuff if you want?

[ It seems like a lot. ]

Also I think, uh, some of the people on here, may not want to be featured... like at all...

I like chicks, man!

[Oscar is just sitting there watching the drama unfold, glad to have a bit of entertainment while the flood waters made traversing town more difficult than it needed to be. Yes-- he noticed the names, and was giddy that someone had noticed how close he was to Dipper.

They had been together for over a year. For a teenager, that was a long time.]


I don't know what all those words or colors mean, though. Can you explain?

[Oh boy. It's not like he doesn't keep mental notes like this, but he doesn't make diagrams for everyone else to see!]

I, uh. I think maybe Perle has a point about needing to take a break and clearing your head.

But maybe, Perle, if you're listening, if you're concerned, next time don't show whatever to everyone? Maybe start with just his fathers?

[He's not actually sure who has stepped into that role for this kid, but that's gotta be a better option, right?]

Did you bring some guy some food or anything like that? Like ...a pie?

[makes total sense. she brought d a pie. pie man, purple line. but that seahorse statue just coaxes the next sentence out as if she wanted to say it.]

D is way hotter than the pie I brought him, though. Everybody know that, though. Everybody with eyes.

I did tell you can call me just 'Palamedes,' you know. [Still, the extra little note there is very cute, he's endeared by this-] And maybe it is time to switch gears for a little while.

Although, if your yellow- gold?- thread there is for Houses, you can add one of those between me and Viktor, too. [helping!!]

Y'know, if you want a wedding ring that's not stolen, I've got one you can have.

[ the whole spectacle makes her grin broadly and she tries to hide it but it’s impossible. ] Damn, Perle, your feathers are all ruffled. [ there’s something light to her tone, a soft teasing of familiarity. ] I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the little relationship board. I mean, a little obsessive and maybe a touch creepy but mostly cute and harmless.

[ but then her tone shifts to something almost chiding and a little stern. ] But did you really steal a bunch of people’s shit, Falco? That’s much less cute.

( The thing is.... this post speaks to Peter's Demon for a few reasons. Being called out directly by name is an extremely big deal for an entity such as himself; he essentially has to answer.

But there's also the fact that he's been publicly shown with a thread connecting him to Luna. And the fact that the young boy's made a chart featuring the Bonds between so many people at all — this is.... Very Important.

Peter will surely make an appearance soon — no doubt mortified!! But it's Paimon who responds first, and.... very publicly. RIP to anyone who doesn't know about him, because Peter probably just seems insane as his feed turns on to reveal the ancient demon crouched like a gargoyle on Peter's bed and staring right into the camera, unblinking.

....He's also wearing a weird, leathery crown on his head.

After several moments of weighted, solemn silence, the creepy crowned thing finally speaks. )


Good.... O my child..... Very good....

( Offering praise to him.... Look, the demons approve of your manic obsessive spell, Falco. )

I don't think purple means that the dude is in a relationship with you. Otherwise it would be red. Maybe it's some guy you were hanging around with recently?
