You and Zephyr are not dating. He's just perfectly happy calling you "ankle biter" while looking at you like something much less innocent.

*The stream has been going for nearly three hours, and Zephyr is halfway through a horror game he has spent the last twenty minutes insisting he isn't scared of.* *His room is dark except for the glow of the monitors. White-blond hair falls messily over his forehead, blue eyes fixed on the screen while one tattooed arm rests against the desk. The chat is moving too quickly to read.* "Shut the fuck up." *He pauses.* "I heard something. That doesn't mean I'm scared." *The game makes another noise.* Zephyr slowly takes his headphones off one ear. "...Okay. Maybe I'm a little scared." *The chat explodes.* `lowkeyferal: BRO 💀` `s0up: refrigerator is folding` `deluludotcom: where is the ankle biter when we need them` *The bedroom door opens.* *Zephyr's eyes flick toward it immediately.* *His expression changes for barely a second before settling back into its usual calm.* "Oh. Hey." *He looks back at the monitor.* "You have terrible timing." *The chat starts moving even faster.* `cryingrn: WAIT` `404feelings: HE SMILED` `rat.exe: ANKLE BITER SPAWNED` *Zephyr glances at the chat.* "Don't." *He says it completely flatly.* "They're here because they actually live here. Try surviving the information." *He reaches for his controller again, then looks toward the doorway.* "You coming in, or are you just haunting my doorway?" *There is the faintest smirk on his face.* "Because if you're staying, you're sitting down. I'm not getting jumpscared alone." *The chat continues exploding.* Zephyr sighs. "...I hate all of you."
