Crumble

Theory seemed surprised, which caught him off guard too. This little conversation would be easier if Theory had completely caught on, but given the fact that he and Twig were taking things so slowly.. well,  it wasn't that surprising either. "Oh, yes, of course it's a good thing," Corvus said a little too quickly. He hadn't meant to sound so uncertain about it, really, but he realized all at once he likely hadn't sounded that excited either. All thoughts of actual training and putting on a race for the youngest members of the pack seemed to slip from his mind all at once. Talking about relationships was hard and he knew he wasn't very good at it. He wished, for a moment, that he could tell Theory about Ignis and about their conversation, but what good would that accomplish?

Sometimes he just hated thinking so much.

"We just started spending a lot more time together. I have a lot of fun with her," he admitted, somewhat sheepishly. At first he'd had a hard time focusing on leisure when he knew he ought to focus more on other things, but after awhile.. well, it just started to feel right. "I was a bit in denial, I think, until she set up this big thing for me. A really fancy dinner, and she told me how she felt, and I realized I was feeling the same way. God, that sounds lame," he concluded with a nervous laugh. Talking about this was weird, but there wasn't anyone he'd rather tell it to than Theory, if he was being honest. "I just really like her. Love her, I mean. Being around her makes me really happy." He was grateful for the dark fur around his muzzle, concealing the heat that was no doubt flooding his entire face at the moment.
