DESCRIPTION: If Foster hasn't lost his walkie-talkie, he'll answer you! If he has........ uh. Well. It wouldn't be the first time.
DESCRIPTION: Foster never checks his mail, assumes he won't get any, and is automatically unhappy to receive any on the rare occasion such a thing might actually happen. But you're welcome to leave it on his doorstep. Maybe his roommate will get it.

Date: 2017-02-09 12:35 am (UTC)Foster stares blankly at Psi for a moment. Then he realises that the troll is ACTUALLY talking to him. Is he... is he serious? Chiaki's condition is obviously more important than sweeping some pitiful insect out of the way.
Put on the spot like that, though, his disbelief is marred by panic.]
Don't.
Don't worry about something disgusting like me. You can't hurt garbage. It has no value to begin with...!
[He runs a hand back through his hair to tangle his fingers in it. This is literally the last thing he wanted. Attracting attention.]
And you've got her, right?
I don't want her to die on my steps.
no subject
Date: 2017-02-09 01:30 am (UTC)If you're garbage so am I.
Is that your way of saying you're not fine?
no subject
Date: 2017-02-09 01:51 am (UTC)No... Foster, you're not... [ She struggles upright a little more, standing on her own to feet. ] I'm okay. See? You're not... don't say that kind of thing about yourself, please...
no subject
Date: 2017-02-09 02:21 am (UTC)He takes a step or two back, right back up the steps, and closes his hand in his hair, a tight fist. His other hand finds the doorframe and grips it just as tightly.]
That's not what I mean.
[He laughs it off--nervously, because he's extremely uncomfortable with Psiionic trying to compare himself to him, aggressively, because Chiaki is really just making this whole thing significantly worse.]
I don't have real feelings. So don't waste time on me.
no subject
Date: 2017-02-09 02:50 am (UTC)Okay? Well, I'm sorry to hear that... But it's no waste if you need something.
no subject
Date: 2017-02-10 06:25 pm (UTC)This whole thing has kind of sucked. She mostly just wants to go home. ]
no subject
Date: 2017-02-10 10:36 pm (UTC)[Well. That was... not ideal. Silence reigns for about two ticks of the second hand on the clock inside his trailer.]
Do you want another glass of water?
If not, you should probably go see Zecora.
no subject
Date: 2017-02-11 04:57 am (UTC)I think she needs a second to catch her breath here. I'm sure you won't mind us standing here.
no subject
Date: 2017-02-13 10:07 pm (UTC)[ It's okay. Really. She's had enough. She tugs at Psii, and turns awkwardly on her big rabbit feet. ]
The longer this thread goes, the more he unravels
Date: 2017-02-14 12:24 am (UTC)He feels like he's starting to lose it. Psiionic won't stop arguing with him. They can't agree with each OTHER. He... he's just nothing, nothing at all!! Why won't they just leave!!
It seems to him that Zecora is, sincerely, the best place for Chiaki right now. He doesn't know what brought on Chiaki's... attack. Respiratory distress? Syncope? He doesn't even know. It doesn't matter. A pathetic, repulsive insect like him... could never be any help in a situation like this. He could only harm them.
But then again.... his own wants and needs are completely irrelevant. It would be hypocritical of him to wish for them to do other than exactly as they please. His comfort, his feelings exist in spite of his best efforts, so it's natural, no--necessary--for them to act in complete disregard of him. No wonder the Psiionic is so confused... he mistook their best interests for his own! Disgusting.]
I... I have no right to an opinion! Take whatever you need from me! It's what I deserve, after all--
[He smiles to show them it's fine, one hand sweeping back through his hair desperately, expression strained.
But he also knows that the longer Chiaki hangs around, the more likely it is that she'll bring up her toy again.
And that--]
