Happy Holidays

Happy holidays to all of my followers! You guys have helped me through some tough social situations over these past few months and I'm very grateful for that.

For anyone looking to escape their family drama, I'll be posting mine over these next few days. Asks and messages are very appreciated - really anything to distract from all of this "close togetherness".

Nighttime, Day 7

Today was tense. It started off with both ExFP's forgetting that I need space when I get up - something I tried to remind them subtly about and failed with. Nearing midnight, it's the first alone time I've had all day, I'm going to be up for awhile processing everything and trying to unwind. Sometime during our day of "close togetherness" I witnessed to ENFP and ESFP clashing. It was interesting to observe and not be a part of, though I did eventually take a side due to the argument being highly foolish (read: just plain stupid). ESFP tried to control ENFP by saying they couldn't, or shouldn't, go outside after four PM (due to reasons that I'm not mentioning here just yet) and that while ENFP and I live here, ENFP should stay inside for the rest of the day. Every day. As in, ENFP can't go outside after four, not just today, but for the next week, the next month, for the rest of the time we live here. Let me be the first to say that isn't going to happen. I pointed out how unreasonable that was, that's six to eight hours of sitting around and doing nothing - which ENFP hates to do. I promptly took ENFP out of the house (ironic because it was after four) and went for a drive. I've known both ENFP and ESFP my entire life so I knew that ENFP would need to rant and express their feelings - and boy did they. For over an hour we drove around, ENFP seething and me calmly agreeing. We came back to the house in slightly higher spirits and tried to have a fun evening watching movies.
