To both Arthurs, how do you guys feel about normal/combined you?

Downthur shrugs. “I don’t know. I don’t hate him.”

Upthur looks at his counterpart with a frown, before focusing. “He’s…..I like him and all- but he’s so….so frustrating sometimes.” Upthur sighs and flips at his hair, pacing a little with his eyes on the ground. He tried to lace his arms behind his back, but the second his mouth opened, they unfurled again to gesticulate his words.

“I mean- he’s nice and all but he’s so- lackluster in energy? He barely gets things done sometimes. Half the time he just wants a nap or he says something he shouldn’t and- I know that’s him.” His hand cut through the air in a sweep, landing in Downthur’s direction.

“I love Arthur to pieces and I want what’s best for him! I know he could do a lot of good things- a lot more than he already does- and he could be really happy! He could save even more people and he could feel better about himself and not be bogged down in doubt! But he let’s those parts of him take the driver’s seat! I can’t help him if he doesn’t try to let go. So- I love him- I love what he could be and what he could do. But he isn’t honest with himself or his friends! And he doesn’t let himself get better. He is me and is the best parts of himself- but he’s the worst parts too- he’s him too, and I hate that he has to be.”

“I should do something for Valentine’s.”

“Why bother? It’s almost over anyway.” 

“That doesn’t mean it’s over yet!” Arthur rolled his eyes at his counterpart, before slipping out the door.

I didn't know you had tattoos-- uh-- you two. What are they of? (( Also does Arthur have Downthur's hip tattoo and bellyring when he's whole or are those just Downthur? ))

Up!thur: “Well- It’s a pair of wings with a sword between them! It’s pretty decent sized. But I think it looks pretty cool! Even if- well- it looks cool!”

Down!thur: “It’s a tiny one. A little ghost-pepper.”

It's been way too long since she's seen Arthur. Way, waaay too long. So what would be a better way to reconnect than to randomly show up with some pizza and video games like old times? It probably would have worked, too - if Vivi didn't just about drop everything in her arms when she saw two very, /very/ different Arthurs. Well. This probably wasn't a good sign. "...Do I even wanna know what's goin' on here?"

The one Arthur brightened immediately at seeing her presence, and rushed over, smiling wide. “Vivi! It’s been too long!” He chirped, stooping to help take some of her things. “If I knew you were coming I would’ve picked up more! I’m sorry about the mess! I’m just fixing everything up since I have the time.” He stood, before shaking his head. “Gosh- maybe it’s the absence but I swear you get prettier every day.” He turned and made for the table to set down her things. 

The one on the couch slid his attention to her and offered a shallow nod to her. He didn’t seem to have the energy for much else.

'What do you think of the world beyond yours?' She questioned.

“The world beyond mine?” One Arthur tilted his head. “Do you mean like- magic and fae? I think It’s really amazing! There’s so many unique things to discover and so many things I would never dream of that exist- and helping people or entities that needs it is really fulfilling- I think overall I really like it!” He beamed. 

The other Arthur seemed far less enthused. “It’s definitely not dangerous. People don’t die.” He stared hard at the other Arthur, who pursed his lips.

“It’s not dangerous if you don’t lie to your friends.” 

“Because losing them is so much better.”

Both of them scowled, and after a moment turned their backs on one another.

Upthur: “They’re so pretty! I can’t help but love them~.”

Downthur: *He offers you a shrug in response.*

Fruit Meme (source) Peach: do you have any piercings or tattoos?

Upthur: “Nope! Except the tattoo on my back! But I’ve had that for a few years.”

Downthur: “Same tattoo. two piercings in one ear. Tiny tat on a hip.”

Upthur: “I really like orchids and roses! And the daphne odora is really pretty! And lilac! Oh- and sunflowers too!”

Downthur: “Roses. Orchids. White cherry blossoms. Marigolds.”
