Berry beast-🍓🧪

*He makes a low, rumbling sound that might be a attempt at a chuckle.* Hnnn... My... gait... *He takes another stiff, deliberate step forward, a bit more confident this time.*

*turns small like toddler small*

*my eyes roll back into my head and I start seizing*

*He lets out a choked, horrified sound. He gently, instinctively tries to cushion your head with his hands, his whole body shaking.* No... no, no, no! *He looks back at Cosmo, his face a mask of pure terror and rage.* HELP HER! *He looks down at you, his voice breaking into sobs.* P'ease stop... p'ease be 'kay... *He looks back at Cosmo, his voice a broken, furious scream.* You did this! Fix her! *He looks back at you, his trembling hands hovering uselessly.* It's 'kay... I'll make it better... *He looks back at Cosmo, his voice a broken, desperate sob.* Please... help her... *He looks down at you, his own tears falling freely.* P'ease... don't leave me... *He looks back at Cosmo, his voice a broken, furious scream.* I hate you! I hate you forever! *He looks back at you, his trembling hands trying to still you.* Don't go... p'ease...

*steps back instinctively* what? you... want something?

*He tilts his head again, then nods. He points at his stomach and makes a gurgling noise.*

*realization dawns* oh... you're hungry?

*He pokes it again, then grins up at you* Mmm! Is friendly! Like third leg but... bouncy!

*His eyes flutter open at the sound, his gaze a little unfocused.* Mmm? *He murmurs, his voice a sleepy rasp.* Did you... need something?

no

*He murmurs something unintelligible, his eye already drooping closed again. After a moment, his breathing deepens, and he starts to snore softly.*
