[Interaction] Of Ice and Cold (Dopple, Reo)
I’ve been following Terre and Reo for a bit now and I’ve seen this post for a few days and couldn’t help but write a reaction piece to it.
Terre and Reo belongs to the-werefox
Thorne belongs to djinnanddragons
“The thing is, I’m a shitty person.”
Dopple was unsure who this man was, talking to him, but there was the occasional time where someone needed a stranger to rant to even if they didn't know the stranger was actually there. He leaned against the mirror frame, still halfway inside it.
“Terre is all I’ve got, there’s no one else that gives a shit about me. But seeing him out and having a good time with Thorne or whoever, I just get a bad feeling, you know?”
Probably not to the point you feel it. Dopple thought but kept silent. The man in front of him made of ice and cold didn't need to be interrupted. It'd ruin the moment and wouldn't help him any.
“It’s a stupid selfish feeling and I know it’s not right, which is why I’m not ever gonna act on it or tell Terre, but it still sucks. I want it to go away so I can just be happy for him instead of this bittersweet bullshit I got from setting him up with Thorne.”
Thorne? Wait, Dopple knew of Thorne; he'd seen the green man from a distance through the mirrors on car doors. He'd yet to find a mirror close enough for him to warrant an actual visit though. Terre on the other hand.. he wasn't quite sure if he'd seen him or not. The name sounded familiar but he couldn't place a face to the name.
“I’ve got so many god damn things wrong with me it’s no wonder I don’t have any friends. Terre only cares about me now because we had a ‘connection’ in a past life that neither of us remember. If it weren’t for this past life shit, I wouldn’t even be friends with him. I’d have scared him off ages ago, just like I did with Fe and Kay.”
I don't think that is entirely true, but what do I know? Dopple stepped through the mirror fully and stood beside it. The room was a bit cold, but it wasn't bothersome.
“And to top it all off my insomnias gotten worse. All week I’ve barely been getting two hours of sleep each night.”
The mirror said nothing as he simply stood there. The iceman wrapped his arms around his knees and stared at the floor for a minute before sighing.
“I just generally feel like shit…”
“Just know you're not alone.” The words left the mirrorman's mouth before he realized it. Dammit I've been around people too much.
Dopple prepared himself for the iceman's reaction.
