yo it's me again ✌️

sort of noticed a lot of questions going around about love and dating and all kinds of other stuff
figured i throw some more into the pot
see what we could uh cook up haha

[ Ignis, if you hear this, he's not really that sorry. ]

anyway so

say you were seeing somebody and they had these secrets
like stuff they never told you
would that be a deal breaker if they ever came up
(guess this goes for people who are the ones with the secrets too)

or what if there was something you wanted to tell someone but weren't really sure how to go about doing it
easy in like all up front or ignore it and hope for the best? 🤔

oh oh and one more thing
anyone here a sword expert?
don't answer if you're thinkin about 🍆💦
serious stuff only

[ Honestly, he doesn't care too much for that last part, but he had to be specific. ]

Guess it depends on the secret? [Reno's not much for typing if he can avoid it, too much work.] Are we talking "I masturbate into your shirt" secrets? Or are we talking about "you know me as Mark, but I'm really Steve and I have this life you know nothing about and expect you to drop everything to accommodate my Steve life even though you're invested in the Mark life" secret?

On the whole, I don't think secrets are a problem [he wouldn't] you can never know absolutely everything about a person and some things you probably don't want to know. Like if someone masturbated into my shirt for example, just wash it, dry it, fold it and put it away so that I'm none the wiser and we're both happier not knowing and not telling.

[He shrugs his shoulders as if it's not a big deal and it isn't in his opinion.]

Just depends on the secret.

[Reno contemplates the next question for all of a few seconds before answering.]

If I had something to say to someone I'd just say it, but that's because I don't see the point in ignoring it. You could always hope for the best later.

[]He's not going to respond to the last bit, his only expertise in swords is having one swung at him.]

[ ... is he hearing this right? All of this sounds way too TMI, and it probably shows on Prompto's face when he switches over to video. Talking is faster, but texting gives that bit of anonymity to hide what he might actually be feeling. ]

I'm gonna say it's neither of those just 'cause it sounds like you've got an awful lot of experience with the whole shirt thing, and I don't wanna rain on your parade. [ Is he frowning? Oops. ] Anyway, it's more like... a life secret? Super tragic backstory 101 that you have to be a certain level to unlock, but when you finally get there, you're not sure you want to know.

And I'm not sayin' I wanna know everything or I expect anybody else to want to know everything either. [ What is he saying? He actually has no idea. ] I dunno. It's pretty complicated. Maybe it's just better to take it as it is and go with it?

[ He shrugs. This is all he's got, and it's probably not even that good. ]

[hotshock]

Heh I'm not giving you details from experience, I'm just very good at firing off scenarios [is it TMI if none of the information is actually applicable to him?] as for super tragic backstories? Again, it depends if you put in all the work to get to that level you're kind of committed. It also depends on whether the person in question wants you to know that secret or cares if you know it.

[Reno chuckled a bit] It's funny sometimes how quickly we overlook the best advice is the advice we give ourselves. Taking it as it is and going with it is the best advice. What can you do at this point anyway?

[burstmodes]

[ He just sighs, feeling a little deflated. ]

Nothing really. But it's all hypothetical stuff anyway, so maybe I should just stop overthinking it right now. That's good advice too, right?
