 [Lea seems to be sitting at the table in his apartment, a small pile of cards in front of him.]

Man, I haven't seen Valentine cards this cheesy since I was in grade school. I mean, take a look at this one...

[He holds the card up so that the drone's camera can focus in on it. for a few moments.]

Who else thinks the miasma needs to find another card shop to swipe from?

[Lea takes a deep breath.]

OK. Well, I think... I'm in love with you.

[He blushes a little and ducks his head.]

And before you say, yeah, I know it's not normal; cause I wasn't up until just now. Something weird's going on. But... that doesn't change how I feel, you know?

[thankyou4myheart]

[Laugh? No. Gape in speechless shock for a moment? …sorry, yeah. He'll, uh, recover quickly, though.]

I…I see. An effect of the cards, perhaps? They're from the Miasma, aren't they?

[hotheadwarmheart]

[Lea nods.]

That's my guess, yeah. Just wish I knew what to do about it...

Not that I've got anything against inter-species relationships or anything, it's just that... I kinda already have a girlfriend so this is really awkward.

[thankyou4myheart]

[Deckard offers a sympathetic grin.]

I won’t tell her if you don’t.

[He’s joking but…also serious. He’d not take matters of the heart lightly, not by /any/ means.]

It’s probably like any of the weird stuff we’ve been through in the past, though. Give it some time, a week or so maybe, and it should dissipate on its own.

[Lea smirks a little... and also looks a bit sheepish.]

I appreciate it.

[And he really does, because he doesn't take them lightly either. Not after living without one for over a decade.]

Man, I hope so. Relationships are complicated enough without magical greeting cards getting involved.
